Psychology might work. I'm still not too clear on the link between ice-priests and humans, though - are they evolutionary ancestors?

Thanksgiving is coming up here in the States, and so my posting is going to become somewhat more unpredictable. Between Wednesday and next Monday, I may or may not be able to regularly post, although I'll give it a good try.

[kabukiman]

No, they there are a simians who evoluted to a thing similar to humans, millions of years before (like an uncle) and then disapeared. So they are related to humans like pongids, gorillas and other simians.

[kabukiman]

Or maybe I should get another skill: I'm thinking in craft, with the art of making manuscripts from skin (human skin, in this case).

[Mi-Go Agent]

That would be fine. It would be a nice "character" skill.

[Mi-Go Agent]

Well, it looks like the holidays have slowed things down a bit. I'm ready to keep things moving once something like a majority of players post.

Mi-Go, everyone, I can't get in to this game and so am leaving it. Sorry! - I don't like to be a quitter.

[Mi-Go Agent]

Sorry to see you go, but if you aren't having fun, it's just a game. How does everyone else feel?

[Mr. Handy]

I'm sorry to see you go too, Tabs.

I am enjoying the game, and I'm looking forward to continuing.

[kabukiman]

I think I should have choose something weirder, like a shogoth, I'm playing my character not as a monster but as a cultist, my error. But the campaign is fun.

[Mi-Go Agent]

I'm glad you're enjoying it. It is both experimental and the first pbp game I've run, so it has been a bit of a learning experience for me.

I'm very busy this week, so I'm probably not going to be able to update.

[Mi-Go Agent]

Wow, Mr. Kabukiman. I thought "Freeze Water" would be good for crossing ponds, impressing people, and maybe messing with machinery. I didn't see its offensive use at all. But, hey, we're all about 60% water, and this is the Cthulhu Mythos.

Good RPing with the dreams, too - that has to be best RPing I've seen with a sleeping character.

[kabukiman]

Thanks! It's a question of being creative. The best use of a combination of spell was in AD&D: a mage made a spell of creating water in the ground where a group of goblins were, and then an electricity spell. The GM was speechless, because the fight was supposed to be a bloody one, not take just 2 turns.
About the dream, I got the idea from a TV show from the 80's called V-The final battle, when you see a lizard man eating a rat alive. I was young it really impress me.

[Mr. Handy]

It's funny, but the SciFi channel (I refuse to use their name's new silly spelling) is running a V marathon today, and I'm watching The Final Battle right now.

That was a great idea to use Freeze Water in that way. It might not have been MP efficient, but it was certainly cool. Cold, even.

[kabukiman]

Wel, in Portugal they didn't finish the show, so I never discovered what happened in the end (they have the bad habit in Portugal to just put half the programmes in TV and then change for another show).
It was an insane idea, but my character isn't exactly a very normal character

[Mi-Go Agent]

I am currently traveling, and it looks like I will not be able to make regular posts. The game is going to go on pause for about a week.

[kabukiman]

Hi! I have talked with Mr Handy and I would like to continue this scenario as a keeper until Mi-Go agent appears. Old players interested, please sign here. I have post an announcement to new players in the section "games looking for players".

[Mr. Handy]

I'm in, of course, playing Y'nkee (AKA Walter Gilman).

You might want to describe the game in your announcement. You'll attract more players if they know what the game is about.

[kabukiman]

Your right, of course.

[Tabs]

I forgot that kouchpotato is playing too, is he still playing?

Spell name: "Relate"--communicate with an alien species.

[kabukiman]

I have email him, but he didn't answer. That means we are still with just 2 players, I'l wait a little longer and then we will start.
