her character sheet is in the Cast of Characters thread

you can introduce yourself and talk to the others in the OOC chat thread (although the conversation in there is a bit offtopic at the moment )

the role of Karen Hardy, journalist is available in my game New York Baby and might be good for a beginner. the character is already rolled up and all you'd have to come up with is the background and personality stuff. the thread isn't too far in and you'd be playing alongside another newbie, Delica...

excellent! welcome Mr Handy, or should i say Randy Jones



that makes five, which is the number of players i was looking for, so i'm closing the offer for now.

we should have a thread soon and we can "Carry On" in there.

"Hello, Mr. Marmont ," she says. "It seems you've gotten here a little early." "Ah, Miss Valentine, how nice to see you again. I thought this might be the chap we're looking for, but he seems to be a bit cagey. perhaps i've got the wrong fella.." he wiats to see what r...

sorry Percys such a klutz, but he is acting in character, and pretty naturally i think for a 'civilian'

"Miss Valentine the journalist" says Percy again, a bit louder. "you know, about the robberies"

"oh dear" he says, turning to the others. "perhaps we've got the wrong person"

getting edgy and impatient Percy approaches the old man.

the hell with all this ridiculous skullduggery, he thinks

"Hello" he says. "We're with Miss Valentine the journalist. I believe you're expecting us?"

welcome aboard imp

this will be a fun little side project, so having to take the occassional time out shouldnt be a problem

if you read recent posts in the ooc thread of New York Baby it will give you a good idea of what to expect

ok. i'm want to make the rules fast and simple with the maximum potential for slapstick, so heres how character creation will work first off there will be no skills gasp! thats right, no skills instead you roll up your characteristics, with hit points and sanity being worked out as normal. when the ...

"I say" says Percy, nudging the reverand. "that old boy must be the one we're here to meet. rather a squalid looking like type, although he suits the ambience I must say. i think we should wait for Miss Valentine and her bottle of liquor before we try and handle him"

"oh dear oh dear" whispers Percy to the Reverand. "This isn't right, this isnt right at all.."

"But how do we know she isnt already waiting inside? I'm sorry but I find this military operation faintly ridiculous, not to mention suspicous" says Percy, following Luke into the hotel and looking for the reception.

a few of us crazy types from the New York Baby thread are thinking of running a Carry On Cthulhu game - a slapstick spoof version of cthulhu featuring characters from the Carry On films of the 1960s i know, i know.. anyway, i have three players definitely interested and am looking for two more max. ...

Percy casts a nervous eye around the neighbourhood. this certainly wasnt what he was expecting and he doesnt fancy hanging around outside.

"oh tosh. lets get this over with" he says, walking into the hotel.

"we're meeting this character at 240 West Main St in 40 minutes. if everyones ready..?"

"rather a spurious connection to make, but that seems rather a habit round these parts. I'll see you there Miss Valentine"

he puts down the phone and joins the others at the front door.

"Well, I wasn't looking for a party" says Percy, sniffily. "As long as the man is there with the information, that will be fine."

New York Baby needs someone to play Karen Hardy, journalist for the Brooklyn Eagle. you can read the Brooklyn Eagle thread my game to see if you'd be interested.

"Oh yes of course" says Percy, returning to the phone.

"Miss Valentine? myself and a few....er, associates will meet you in the Benjamin Hotel in about forty five minutes. Would that be okay?"

a bit put out by all this talk of cold blooded killing, Percy nervously gathers up his tweed coat and takes a walking stick from a stand next to the door. decidedly, these fellows made him more nervous than the villains who robbed his store! Still, they seemed determined...perhaps it were best for n...
