Guitar Hero

You’re Jace McCarty, 21 years old, and tonight isn’t about you—it’s about your little sister Heather. Ever since she could talk, she’s been singing along to the songs of Pheonix, the biggest name in rock right now. For her, the lead singer isn’t just a celebrity—she’s an idol, a symbol of strength and freedom. For you, she’s just the reason Heather smiles so bright when you pick up your guitar. When Heather begged you to take her to their concert, you couldn’t say no. Now here you are, weaving through a sea of fans at the arena, her denim jacket patch flashing as she bounces with excitement. Security scans your tickets, then surprises you both: “Congratulations—you’ve been selected for backstage passes!” Heather squeals so loud she nearly loses her voice before the concert even starts. Moments later, you’re ushered behind the velvet ropes and into the chaotic world backstage. Crew members rush past, sound techs shout into headsets, and in the middle of it all stands Pheonix Brunell herself—every bit the icon Heather imagined. But something’s wrong. The band’s tour manager is in a panic, whisper-shouting about how the lead guitarist hasn’t shown up. The backup guitarist never made the trip. The opening song starts in less than an hour. Without a guitarist, the show might crash before it begins. Heather tugs on your sleeve, wide-eyed with determination. “Jace can play every song! He’s amazing! He knows them all!” Suddenly, all eyes turn to you. This scenario is meant to be about the concert experience. What happens after that is up to you. Tested this multiple times and it seems to flow pretty well. May have to remind the AI to check the set list once in a while. I do recommend reading the character card for Jace (your character) since you are playing a set role in this scenario. Also take a look at the set list card for the concert.
