After a 13 year hiatus, dice were tossed again in a Heroic fashion. Ken returned in triumph to The Shop and pulled out a Hero rulebook, and pronounced our doom upon us: Write Up Yourself !
the players are running version of themselves, so no super powers,
no psychic abilities,
no awesome gadgets.

Scene One: December 3rd, 2016:
On the way to a movie, after a generous visit to a Mongolian buffet, our heroes were riding in a van. Driver Elliott gets sick, and stops at the Wawa across from Jefferson Labs. Buddies Paul, Bob Craig wait outside.
After he Utterly Destroyed the men's room, Elliott Returns outside to find the lights flickering, Everyone's cell phones are overheating and quitting, and this neighborhood and many other lose power.
No one's cars or vans will start. People mill about trying to contact loved ones, but cell service is iffy. The only light is on at Jeff.Labs, so our heroes head out across Jeff.Ave to investigate.
Into this confusion, the one vehicle working in the area, a Prepper's survival truck, Diesel with a hand crank, roars outs onto Jeff and plows over the median, lightly injures Elliott, but while the driver dodged, he over corrected,
and rolled into the gas pumps at Wawa. Setting the whole place on fire, and cut-off had failed in the earlier troubles.
Our hero's van, and all the prepper supplies are lost in the inferno at Wawa, to which no police or fire ever respond. So the group sets out again for Jeff Labs, since they seem to have power, and will have a 1st aid kit.
The gate guard is naïve and confused, but does summon a medic.
The medic is a strange one, and his ID badge says CEBAF instead of JLAB. Other guard and a senior scientist arrive. When Craig uses the phrase EMP burst, the entire mood changes from helpfulness to suspicion. The scientists want to hear what we know and when did we know it. Inside the building, the medic attends to Elliott and strange things go on.
We met Doctor Zinlander, Doctor Denise, and Doctor Callahan. Early attempts to shake the guards failed, but eventually we were alone with Doctor Denise.
Apparently some different accelerator experiments somehow harmonized across the 4th dimension and connected the spaces of various eras of Jefferson Labs.
The Reactor was giving off Radiation and made some of us sick. Certain parts of the building seemed to be from different times. 1985, 1992, 2060, maybe farther. Traversing the hallways seemed to be a circular exercise, as chrono effects messed up the architecture. and few exit windows could be found. Doctor Denise seemed to be excited about looting past artifacts to her theoretically future time. When a window exit was finally located, it led out side to a forested area TBC
