so what I do?

Well, after Jack gets rid of the Fire Vampire that has you tied up, you need to go to the Unnamable and get rid of the three monsters that have Melk tied up.

In all honesty, there's a chance you won't make it out of there alive. But with Melk holding a gate trophy, it's pretty important that he live. At the very worst, you get killed, and we have to draw another character for you.

Actually, at the very worst, you get killed without killing any monsters, and Melk still has 3 to deal with. So we'll be trying not to pull that off.

/is not sure if next turn is starting or not

So can I do anything useful aside from handing off my items?

*wishes he had a character who could kick monster ###*

*feels old*

For some reason I had it in my head we were missing people. That is incorrect. We can start the move phase. I need to do a couple upkeep rolls, I think, but other than that, we should be ready. You can take your move anytime.

Bad spot of luck with the Professor, unfortunately. We need to get your hands on some spells.

I have 4 clue tokens that should be put to good use.

Can I share them with other players? If so, who needs them most at the moment?

Nope, clues can't be shared (without the Violinist from the Insmouth expansion, that is) so what you need to do ASAP is to get another clue token as 5 clues is the magic number it takes to seal a gate permanently without an Elder Sign

All righty then. I'll mosey on to the next place that has a clue token.

I'm lost again--do we take our turns in order or do we all just post our moves anytime?


And where the heck should I move to?

We go in order:

1. Jack
2. Pax
3. Smudge
4. Wade
5. Kalel
6. Melkhor
7. Rokk
8. Charles


To the second question, not sure.

Nome, Alaska.

Just like they say, there's no place like Nome.

Well, if it's my turn, I'll go fight the fire vampire thingy.

Somehow, I missed that you did this while I was home last night. Too much going on, apparently.

I'll try and take care of this today.

you better

Darrell moves to Merchant District Streets.

There is a fire vampire! Oh teh noes! It corners him, thinking him caught...until he pulls out a ridiculously large sword.

FIGHT!

Fire vampire has no sanity check. Dude's on fire. He's like...already got it in for himself. Darrell smiles, and makes a comment. Probably something snappy about barbecue. He's hungry, or something.

Combat check! Jack has a Fight score of 4. Sword of Glory brings another 6 to the table. Fire Vampire's check is -2, need 2 successes. 8 dice=

1+1+2+3+5 (success!) +2+4+6 (success!)

Fire Vampire is slain. Darrell gets to keep it as a trophy.
