Re: Out of Character Chatting

If no one has anything more to say here, I'll ask Mr. Handy to move this to the Hall of Fame.

Re: Out of Character Chatting

Delores spontaneously following Merivana was one of the coolest actions taken IMO. I was very glad to have you in the game start to finish.

If you want to 'lurk' in one of the games I'm currently running, just send me an 'rmail' there and we'll figure it out.

Re: Out of Character Chatting

I would love that, but unlikely to make it to GenCon. However, John Addis (Franky) goes just about every year, I think.

Re: Out of Character Chatting

I also want to say that you guys are still two of my favorite people to play with. I thoroughly enjoyed your characterizations of Dex and Delores. I do wish the others had stayed with us. I made a lot of 'improvements' to the scenario Return to Red Hook as written. I think you all picked up on every...

Re: Out of Character Chatting

Hey Matt, Glad you enjoyed it and stuck with it. If you get a F2F game running in Melbourne, give me a holler. If I can make the logistics work, I'd like to be included. I'm up the road in Ocoee. Mobile number is 407-340-1231. This is the second PbP I've run with ToC. I also ran The King's Men scena...

Re: Out of Character Chatting

Well, after about two and a half years, that's it. I hope it wasn't too much of an anticlimax. Thank you both for sticking with the game for so long and playing a couple of great characters. I'd love to hear what you think of the scenario and the way I ran it. I'd also like to kick around thoughts a...

Epilogue

Delores is admitted to the hospital for observation, as is Marlene Hirt, who is dehydrated, malnourished, and emotionally upset. Dex's arm is treated and he is kept overnight. Alphonse Hirt undergoes surgery to repair his injuries and is hospitalized to recover. Dex is released the following day. Ma...

Re: Return to Red Hook

Delores,I don't seem to have made it clear that Delores cannot see. She is blind.

Re: Return to Red Hook

Franky talks as he whips the car through the streets of Red Hook. "Jerry and I got Pat up to the street just as reinforcements started arriving, including an ambulance. We got Pat off to the hospital about the time Heinie came out, blasting at a bunch of guys following him. The uniformed boys p...

Re: Return to Red Hook

As Dex pulls Delores to her feet, he looks into her eyes. They are wide and unfocused, but the pupils expand and contract with the changing light. As they get to Hirt, Dex sees blood pooling under his writhing torso. Delores, blindly groping, touches the front of his blood-sodden shirt. At that mome...

Return to Red Hook

Delores sprawls flat on a hard, rough surface. There is a cacophony of sound, too reminiscent of the processions she has fled. She gazes into the darkness, seeking a refuge. Even though she feels the heat of leaping flames on her face and hears their roar, the blackness is absolute. Dex stumbles fo...

Re: Together in Irem

Blasted by what she has just seen, Delores screams and claps her hands over her eyes. The shotgun flies out of her hands. Then she is just...gone, Dex's hand clinging to hers encircles nothing. Delores,Stability drops to -6, causing a 2 point loss of Sanity. As before, the slug from the .45 spins f...

Re: Together in Irem

Dex's bullet can be seen as it leaves the barrel in a shower of sparks, when it has spun about an inch from the muzzle, it accelerates to normal velocity and drills through the center of the gold mask. The figure ripples and its entire body transforms. Where a willowy, phosphorescent creature of ind...

Re: Together in Irem

Not just the wind, but other forces tug at their bodies as the three New Yorkers float, suspended by the counterpoised power of the Moon-Tunnel. As they spin slightly widdershins, they see the phosphorescent priest(ess) rage at them. Several of the dog-like creatures leap onto the coping, along with...

Re: Together in Irem

The tittering creature dances its way around to the Asian man and gathers him into a close embrace, then kisses him. The man’s body begins to writhe then to thrash. The thing’s head wrenches back in a spray of blood as the man screams in pain, blood pouring from his mouth. The thing turns its head a...

Re: Together in Irem

Hirt turns bleak eyes to Dex. "Boost me up," he rasps. At that moment all sound stops in the crypt. Into the void of silence comes a whisper, a whistle, then a roar. A thousand creatures hold their breath (those that breathe). A single drum booms like a heartbeat as the abomination wraps l...

Re: Together in Irem

Hirt twists his head around to look Delores in the eyes. "Can he put me down?" he asks, gasping for breath a bit, "This hurts." As Dex eases Alphonse to a standing position, still supporting him with an arm around his shoulders, Dex's jacket is a bit bloodstained and Hirt's banda...
