Used 1 clue token

Jenny's trip through the beautiful land of Arham and it surrounding lands is cut suddenly short as a haunting horror blocks her way out of the garden. Jenny whips her Tommygun out and riddles the poor outworldly bastard with hot steamy shells. Walking past the slumping mess, she wipes her heel on the carcass..

C'mon boys! Date's over!

Turn 8 Movement
Science Building -> Woods

OOC,Evade the Color Out of Space, +1[Evade modifier] Sneak 5 +1[Skill] +1[Earl Sawyer] =8d6: 3 2 3 4 2 2 4 2; [b]WHAT!![/b] Spending 5 Clue tokens: 1 1 2 1 4; [b]NO!![/b]. Evade failed, 1 Stamina lost. Horror check (-3) Will 3, automatically fail and lose 4 Sanity; Wilson goes insane. Lose half one's items, discarding: Rifle, Derringer and Whisky, also move to Asylum and restore Sanity to 1. [size=150]Edit[/size]: As Mr. Handy pointed out Wilson's Sneak Skill allows a bonus die per Clue token spent, so that means a potential 10d6 (Wilson had 5 Clue tokens); d6: 3 3 5; [b]success[/b]. So Wilson evades the Colour Out of Space, stays at the Woods and has 1 Clue token remaining.

The Colour Out of Space is a vile slug, it looks like a smear on the ground that has passed through the digestion of a gigantic herbivore and then illuminated with a thousand bulbs. Wilson says, "I think we'll go round it, boys."
Carefully treading through ferns Wilson doesn't see the ditch, missing his step he collapses to his knees. A sting on the sole of his foot reveals a horrid glue, an acid which is eating through his boot. The ditch is full of the stuff, The Colour Out of Space is all round him: "Oh God, please nnnfwui...."

The shocking vision continues to play in his mind: another Wilson is tearing at his eyeballs, tears and blood; and a melting foot thumps upon the bracken...
Then, the image evaporates: he is still creeping through the Woods with Earl Sawyer and Prof. Rice.

Turn 8 Encounter

OOC,No Encounter

Halting mid stride, Harvey rouses himself from a deep train of thought. The sound of the river is in his ears and a briney breese plays along his whiskers. Contemplative pacings have delivered him to the end of a pier. The old man shudders feeling the sky arcing overhead.

Turn 8 Encounter


Leo arrived at the station. He heard an old man singing with a guitar. They were just ordinary balads, about love and goodlife, but somewhow, Leo felt much better. The fatigue from his ordeal was passing.

OOC,Leo restores his stamina, since his sanity is at the maximum.

Turn 8 Arkham Encounter
Newspaper

OOC,Ack! I don't know how I missed that last post. All this time I thought I was waiting for someone else, and it was me. :oops: [b]Michael[/b] completes his Newspaper Assignment. He discards it and gains 4 Clue tokens and $5 as the payoff.

Michael goes to the office of Doyle Jeffries, the newspaper editor. He begins to tell him about his bizarre experiences, but the editor gives him a skeptical look. "Hang on now," he says. "Do you have any proof?"

"Well, there's this trinket I picked up in that strange desert land," he says.

"That could have come from anywhere."

"There's also the remains of a creature I killed." He shows the editor the trophy he had taken.

Doyle shivered. "That does look odd, but it could have come from an animal. Got anything else?"

"Uh...no."

"Come back when you do, then." With that, the editor shows him out. At least Michael is able to file his story on the Witch House and get paid for it. And while he is at it, he does some research in the newspaper archives, also known as the Morgue, and finds out a lot of useful information. Unfortunately, Doyle Jeffries has already left for the day by the time he finds the proof he needs.

Turn 8 Encounter

ooc,Jenny raises her Stamina 3 PAST ITS MAXIMUM

Standing overtop the bullet-hole ridden horror, Jenny is suddenly filled with unnatural vigor. Smiling, she pulls Eric into a nearby utility shed and slams the door behind her. Confused, Ammi approaches the shed to the sound of clay pots and shovels crashing about inside. The old gardener slowly bends down and looks through a knot hole in one of the boards lining the sheds. He quickly pulls away, his face red with embarassment as the sound of his new employer's grunting and moaning fills his eyes and ears. Ammi can't help himself though and quickly returns to the knot hole to get a second peek, his dentures grinding with anticipation.

Later, Jenny opens the door to the gardner's shed and steps out into the night air, adjusting her skirt appropriately.

C'mon you two! We got a town to save! So pull your knickers up yah old coot, and get back in line.

Turn 8 Arkham Encounter
Within the exposed roots of a hoary tree and surrounded by brown pine needles lies a small pond: duckweed and dead newts swirl on the surface.
"Another puddle," comments Earl Sawyer.
"No, another gate," replies Prof. Rice.

Prof. Rice halts and studies the cyclopean cubes clinging to the mountain peaks.

Wilson also stops: "This path is familiar, we've been here before;" cheeks puffing: "we are walking in circles."

Turn 9 Upkeep
Newspaper

OOC,[b]Michael[/b] increases his Will from 3 to 4 and decreases his Fight from 4 to 3. I'm planning to go to the Merchant District and dump all my money into the Mad Bomber. I'm not worried about it going off, as the game won't last that long, but getting 2 Clues apiece would be nice. If nobody else can take care of the Goat Spawn, though, I'll do that instead.

As Michael leaves the newspaper office, he passes a newsboy running in. The lad is shouting something about a mad bomber in the Merchant District.
