OOC Chat

The voice on the phone said, "I understand that you are a friend of my son, James. He has gone missing. I require your assistance in bringing him home again...”

A university student has gone missing. Can his friends find out what has happened to James Frazer in 1920s Massachusetts?

You are all much more convinced Brophy is truly dead than I am. ;) But excellent campaign, very happy Alex kept his body; I was fully prepared for him to end up possessed.

I didn't actually say I thought he's dead, just that he got what was coming to him. ;) Even if he survived (again), that had to hurt.

Dead or not, he isn't going to be a problem for the next 43 years.

I would suggest SAN rewards, but I think we kind of really screwed up this particular jaunt

We’ll that chapter was pretty brutal for me, but I enjoyed it immensely! Count me in for the next instalment, if you’ll have me.

We didn't so much drop the ball as drop the anvil. Directly onto Sean's head.

Yeah, Sean was unlucky. By the way, it wasn’t Brophy who changed his appearance, it was the librarian. She was an ancestor of the witch that Brophy had brought to grief the previous century and the spirit of her ancestor lived on.

JP - you’re more than welcome to join us again.

As am I. Will Ivy be rejoining us? Falling that, maybe her ancestor/descendant. Raised with a fierce hatred of horses.

Ok, pleased to hear you’re all happy to continue.

Alex/Lawrence/William - you can all do your checks for any skills you have used successfully.

Lawrence - if that was your first bout of madness, you can also add 5 points of Cthulhu Mythos.

JP - I’ll PM you about Ivy.

Cheers 🙂

I made a First Aid roll early in the game, but that was with the old dice roller, and the results were lost when the board was upgraded. It's not clear from the context whether it succeeded or failed, and I don't remember for certain which it was, but I think it was a success.

Ok, thanks. Please update your character sheets accordingly.

Mr. Handy - I think your roll was successful as both Georges and Baz were up on their feet and able to move around, so happy for you to roll against that skill.

JP’s working on his character so when we’re ready to move on, I’ll let you know.

Thank you. My sheet is updated. I know I failed those rolls, but I made one at the beginning when I tried in vain to save the butler.

I didn't get an increase anyway, so it doesn't really matter whether that roll succeeded or failed.
