Afterwards, MacTavish often visited his cousin on weekends. When he was 16, he tried several times to enroll in the SAS and while he lied about his age, he was caught every time. Despite this, he was urged to join college before the military, and is currently on the football team.

Bodies, Bodies, Bodies

This is essentially a riff on a classic party game like Werewolf, where there is a murderer amongst the group that they will all have to discover. The goal of the game is to find out which member is the "killer." The player that drew the murderer marker has to try and "kill" the other players without being found out. Players of "Bodies Bodies Bodies" begin by using paper or another item to make markers. There should be enough for each player, and one should have an X to mark that player as the murderer. These pieces can be placed in a bucket or hat so that players can anonymously draw their own slips. Once each player has drawn their marker, they now know if they are the murderer or not. Do not share the contents of your marker!

The Thing

The Thing is a shapeshifting and telepathic alien. The Thing's cells eat, digest, and copy the victim’s cells. The result is a perfect copy of the victim, made out of cells from the Thing. Because it is a perfect copy, the victim could easily not be aware that they have been digested and killed. It can still run their mind, and ‘they’ could believe themselves to still be human - yet, it could control them. They would not even know they were being controlled. In order for The Thing to spread, the infected person has to kill themselves in front of another person, therefore traumatizing and infecting that person. The thing will never do this in front of a group, but will instead wait until they get the other person one on one. The spread is fast and instantaneous.
