Condemned - Out of Character / lurkers

Arkham, Massachusetts; during the late summer of 1921, two good friends and fellow Miskatonic University botany students Richard Cardigan and Henry Atwater strolled west from Arkham to camp along the Miskatonic River to gather samples and specimens of the local flora and fauna. They were expected to return on Saturday but failed to do so following the sudden freak storm during Friday night.

Early Sunday morning, Atwater was found wandering along west River Street, in a disturbed state of mind. Police took him to St. Mary's Hospital, where he was questioned and sedated.

Atwater's nearly incoherent ramblings led police to surmise that the campers had been struck by lightning on Friday evening while they slept.

But of course we know different ... don't we?

Condemned - Out of Character / lurkers

Post by Cearlan »

Here be all posts out of character and by lurkers, (does anyone still do this?).

It would be interesting to see what players actually want from this game. This would help to 'integrate them a bit more - hence my asking about the use of traits as an option

So who is helping to uncover the body from the sand? - the more the merrier as it were.

I'll be away on vacation through the 29th, and again from the afternoon of July 3rd through the 7th, so I probably won't be able to post during those times.

I can NPC your character during these times no problem ... I promise I will look after her for you, or if you prefer she can be recalled to her nunnery / wherever for some reason. Either way she'll be fine.

Our excavation starts this week and since my assistant isn't arriving until the second week, I might be hard-pressed to post on here with anything remotely resembling frequency.

If my delayed responses are slowing down the story, please feel free to NPC my character after their particular..uhm...idiom, sir?...yes, idiom!

Sorry I been away without notice for a few days. We've had major problems with leaks in our roof which got into the electrics. Hopefully all sorted now though.

I'm back from the Mediterranean and all this leaky roof business sounds rather alien, nonetheless, I hope it's sorted now, Cearlan!

Allow me some time to catch up with what I've missed and I'll be back in action one of these days.

DeeJ61's daughter is getting married on Friday so this is taking up all our energies at the present time - cats on a hot tin roof comes to mind. Normal service should be resumed after the weekend though.
