You could perhaps sweeten the pot by quoting a line or two

Bad poetry ye want? Bad poetry ye shall get!

Nice. If this was FATE,I'd give you a fate point for that. In this case 'nice'

You are moving up to the church. Harry and Tommy have begun to describe it. Please add to as you see it. My next post will be in answer to the description.

Previously Mr Handy said:   Anne peers at the darkened stains on the floor, adjusting her glasses. Something about the stains by the altar looks off, so she takes a closer look. "Are these stains...blood?" she asks, choking back a gasp.

Please roll for a Puzzle things out move.

Puzzle Things Out (Roll+Reason)

My bad . I should have said for Mr Handy (Anne Dewar) to make the roll.

Whoops, I thought you meant for anyone having a look... my roll was bad so in the narrative Tommy wasn't that inclined to go look.

Oh anyone can take a look and add to the interior of the churches description, it's just that Anne gets to roll for Puzzle things out. If Tommy notices anything odd that he cares to look at, feel free to roll. Remember the description of what is within the building is down to the players. The keeper simply weaves your descriptions together. So if Tommy sees that the windows above the altar show signs of recent restoration, so be it.

Got a 12!

Great stuff.

"PUZZ LE THINGS OUT (roll +reason)
When you face an intellectual dilemma, learn a new piece of information, or discover a clue, you may roll+reason to attempt to puzzle things out. On a 7+, you get to ask one or more questions. Whenever you act on one of the
Keeper’s answers, take +1ongoing.
On a 10+, ask 3 from below OR gain 1 Lore.
On a 7–9, ask 1:
• What is this?
• What does this mean?
• How can I get in/out/pass?
• Who’s in control here?
• Which enemy before me is the most dangerous?
• What is its weakness?
• What should I keep an eye out for?
• How does __________ fit into ______________?
Of the most common questions that will arise, this is just a small sample. The Keeper should allow for some situational flexibility. Whenever the characters get new information, or seem to be stuck, you can call for one
of these rolls. A character cannot attempt to Puzzle Things Out more than once until further information is gained.
When you gain Lore, you might think you are missing out on those delicious questions—and you’re right. The Keeper is free to tell you what they will, or let you ask questions, or give you some Dark Insight based upon your background (an Alienist might recall a patient talking about some relevant thing, or a Detective might remember a particularly gruesome case with eerie similarities), or tell you nothing at all. You have the choice to take Lore or ask the questions. When you gain Lore, you never know exactly what you’re going to find out—that is all up to the Keeper."

So, basically you get to ask three questions relating to what you are looking at, or gain +1 Lore your choice. If you choose questions pose them as if musing.

I'll take the point of Lore, please.

I've altered your character sheet.
Close inspection of the stains lead you to the conclusion that they are nothing more than old water stains, possibly from a leaky roof.

I'd already modified it myself to include the Lore point, as I had had 0 before, so I've changed it back to 1, which is what I'm supposed to have now.

Whoops!!

Hey guys im just checking in briefly. As you know i had a absence due to family wedding and one due to the gre. I am currently on pain meds for getting wisdom teeth extractee but i promise I will be back and able to post soon.

I could give you some loopy nonsense posts but rebecca isnt crazy yet

I'm on vacation til the 23rd October.

Edit - but will try and post when I can

I'm confused....

Harry opened the church doors but then "As if in answer to Harry's invitation the gravel crunching footsteps halt just ouside the door. For a moment the handle of the door starts to turn then halts. Almost immediately fast moving footsteps can be heard moving away from the door towards the churchyard gate and the road beyond."

So what actually happned?

Whoops! My bad I misread the post I didn't see the part where Harry opened the door. All I can say is sorry chaps and lets say that he didn't open the door.

OK by me
