ARKHAM ENCOUNTER PHASE BEGINS

1. Jack - nothing

2. Pax - Library - DONE!

Overdue book fines of $4. Pay up, or move to the street!

You don't have 4 bucks. You move to the Miskatonic University Streets.

3. Smudge - nothing

4. Wade - Arkham Asylum - DONE!

You hear screaming. When you open a heavy cell door to investigate, a dark shape leaps out at you! It's an insane man in a straightjacket babbling about invisible horrors. Make a Lore (-2) check to glean some useful information from him. If you pass, gain 2 Clue tokens. If you fail, lose 1 Stamina as he attacks you.

Lore is 5, so 3 dice...

5+3+4... success! Wade earns 2 Clue tokens!

5. Kalel - Library - DONE!

You look up to see Abigail Foreman leaning over you with hands on hips and a frustrated look on her face. Make a Will (-1) check. If you pass, she helps you find the book you were looking for. Take the first Tome from the Unique Item deck. If you fail, you've made too much noise. She escorts you out of the library. Move to the street.

Will is 4, so 3 dice....

4+4+4... Sister Mary is still Blessed, so she succeeds!

Sister Mary gets the "Cultes de Goules" Tome.

6. Melkhor - Library - DONE!

You doze off and enter The Dreamlands. Have an encounter there, then immediately return here.

Dreamlands-

Other-

You come across a sleeping horror with a tentacle draped across a small gold idol. Silence is of the essence as you attempt to gently ease the idol out from under the creature's pseudopod. Make a Sneak (-1) check. If you pass, gain $3. If you fail, lose 2 Stamina.

Sneak score is 4, so 3 dice....

3+6+2, success!

Amanda goes back to the Library, $3 in hand.

7. Rokk - nothing

8. Charles in charge - Science building -Done!

You find a student pounding on a strange device that he has hooked up to massive machinery. He states that it is a dimensional beam machine. If you offer to help him, make a Lore (-2) check. If you pass, beams shoot out in all directions, disrupting the gates open throughout the board. Roll a die for each open gate, one at a time. One a success the gate is closed. However, you may not take it as a trophy, but instead return it to the pile of gate markers. If you fail, the machinery overheats and explodes. Roll a die and lose that much Stamina, then move to St. Mary's Hospital.

You have 0 Lore, and you want to save them der clew tokens, so I'm taking the liberty of passing on this. You don't want to close gates without trophies, anyways.

===========================

OTHER WORLD ENCOUNTER PHASE

===========================

1. Smudge - Dreamlands

Other-

There is nothing here but barren wastes. No encounter.

2. Rokk - Another Dimension - Need answer

Other-

You come across a slaughtered creature. Pass a Luck (-1) check to claim a monster trophy from the cup (even if it is Endless) and gain 2 Clue tokens.

Luck score is 2, so you roll 1 die...

1, so that fails....but you have two clue tokens to spend, if you want.


I'd consider spending 1 or 2, since you'll earn 2 for passing, as well as get a monster trophy. Hope you get some impossible bastard, too. That'd be a nice sigh of relief.





So, just need an answer from Rokk on his encounter, and then we're ready to go for the Mythos Phase, where really bad #### continues to happen.

Typical Doctor...always waiting on them

Thawmus, I moved to the Unvisited Isle in order to pick up a clue token and have an encounter. Does the same encounter listed above apply?

Thanks!

First I get beaten up.

Now I get kicked out onto the street?

This game is mean

Actually....I totally skipped your turn, so you didn't move anywhere!

I'll have to redo that.

I'll spend Clue Tokens...1 to start and, if needed, the second one.

I just spent two days in the hospital getting an emergency hernia repair done. I'm afraid I will be online only intermittenly for the next few weeks. Can someone take over running the nun for me?

I'll take over for you.

Hernias suck. I had an umbilical hernia about 7 years ago, and it was awful. You're in my prayers.

Reading in the bathroom increases your chance of getting a hernia

So does getting speared in a parking lot by a drunk guy you've accidentally startled.

That sounds sort of gay...

Okay. filler

Do you mean the wrestling move speared? I just woke up and when I read that I started thinking, yea...

Yes. That was what I meant. What other thing could you possibly think I meant?

You probably don't want to know...
