The Roadhouse is the perfect place for high-energy, immersive events that generate roleplay opportunities for characters. Below are some ideas for events you can host at the Roadhouse, along with suggestions for mechanics, roleplay hooks, and more.
Midnight Run (Night Bike Races)
The Midnight Run is an underground drag-style bike race held on a deserted stretch of road out in the desert, away from prying eyes. These races are dangerous, fast, and often take place under the cover of night, to avoid the desert heat but also to avoid any legal trouble.
See also: (Races)
Roleplay Opportunities
- Riders push their bikes and themselves to the limit, risking crashes or worse as they race for glory, money, and reputation.
- Spectators place bets, goad the racers, or cause mischief by sabotaging bikes or the track.
- Rivals might take the opportunity to settle old grudges or try to eliminate competition, turning the race into a life-or-death struggle.
- The race could serve as a distraction for other deals going down, where the bikers’ attention is focused on the race while more clandestine activities take place behind the scenes.
- A famous racer or outlaw could make an appearance, adding to the tension and stakes.
Fight Night (Bare-Knuckle or MMA Fights)
The Roadhouse organizes underground fights, either bare-knuckle brawls or mixed martial arts, where local tough guys or even the bikers themselves can participate. This could also involve fighters from rival gangs or outsiders.
Roleplay Opportunities
- **Spectators** can place bets, stir up rivalries, and enjoy the chaos.
- **Fighters** will need to psych themselves up, look for trainers or sponsors, and maybe try to rig the fight for some extra cash.
Battle of the Bands (Live Music Night)
A **Battle of the Bands** event featuring rock or metal bands brave enough to perform for the tough biker crowd. Some locals may be musicians or know a band trying to make a name for themselves.
Roleplay Opportunities
- Characters could perform themselves, act as roadies or managers, or sabotage rival bands to secure a victory.
- A conflict between bands or groups in the audience could erupt into a brawl, or it could serve as a reason for the bikers to protect their turf.
- A famous but reclusive musician could be invited to judge, bringing additional intrigue and possibly supernatural connections.
- The event could serve as a backdrop for secret deals, alliances, or confrontations between factions.
Outlaw BBQ & Bonfire Night
A giant, open-air **BBQ and bonfire** out in the desert, attracting bikers, criminals, and fringe people from the community. It's less formal than other events but still has potential for intense socializing and drama. This could also be a "patch-in" event for new bikers.
Roleplay Opportunities
- Tensions flare between rival gang members, new recruits are hazed, and alliances are forged or broken.
- A few people get too drunk and start revealing secrets or provoking fights, leading to opportunities for characters to exploit the chaos.
- The event could serve as a cover for a more serious plot, such as a high-profile meeting between rival vampire factions or a major criminal deal going down.
