Brainstorming: Adventures in the Dresdenverse
DDR:
I think that my group is going to put something together this weekend just using the Spirit of the Century rules. This lets us have something in place if we get picked as testers.
Without magic rules and stuff, I think we will just be making mostly normal characters.
For the first few games, I will be running a plot revolving around a single black court vampire feeding off of homeless. Here in Phoenix, we have a large, but dry river bottom that runs through the southern part of the city. We often have homeless squatters that set up tents and cardboard homes. There is also a long history of Native American buildings in the area. So the plot will have a black court vampire discovering an unknown subterranean Native American structure with access to the river bottom. Unexplained deaths will lead the heroes to investigate. As soon as we have some characters, I’ll figure out how to get them involved after we get the characters together.

OOOO OOOO doesn't it rain really hard once or twice a year and get that dry river bottom pretty wet? If you have the story start right before the rains come it might put more of a time crunch on the players...You know - solve the mystery and get the bad guy before the flash floods come and wash all the evidence out into the desert. - and keep in mind that would also ground out any magic - I think Black Vamps and running water are a bad combo as well - if the players time it just right they could use that against the vamps - or the GM could use it as a deux ex machina to save the players if they go too far...ect.
just a thought.
DDR:
Good ideas! Thanks!

I'm not sure how I would handle it, with fae though. While "Trickery" is the Fae domain, I'm thinking something more on par with Loki, Coyote, etc - very interested in Mortal affairs, or at least the affairs of individuals that they feel need to be "taught a lesson".
I do think that the best way to strip them of their magic, or make them vulnerable to actual death, is to trick them. Once the Trickster is made the Fool, his magic is null and void against those that trick him.
