Marie to flip her LiTaS Condition.

Here's an idea, Norman could Rest, open Stone Chest and examine Lost Treasure, any failures he Trades to Tony? There's already 2 Eldritch tokens on the Mystery.

Norman would have to be lead investigator for him to be able to trade with Tony.

It may be risky for Norman to be Lead Investigator . . . we've nearly solved the Mystery.

Maybe so. I guess Diana would be a safe First Investigator.

Norman is going to rest and then move to Shanghai.

I'll need to Rest, both to heal up and to try to get rid of my Hunger. Then I'll probably go to Shanghai too (to gain Lore; I'll leave the Mystic Ruins for Norman), or I could gain a Focus. EIther way, if the Hunting Horror comes after me, I'll try to finish it off and gain all the goodies that come with doing so.

Marie will be Lead Investigator, she's LiTaS, so no Action Phase. Investigator order: Marie, Tony, Norman and Diana.

@DSIGFUSS, suggestion for Diana's Action Phase, Rest and Travel to The Amazon?

That's all 4 Relics flipped by Norman!

@Quatermass, which encounter for Norman at Shanghai? I wonder if it's the right time for a Mystic Ruins Encounter? Ought we wait until the AO is flipped at the end of the Mythos Phase?

@Tony Morgan

It's lost 2 Health--combat with Norman and the Monster Hunter?

I haven't looked that the flipped Syzygy card so I will do a Shanghai Encounter if you think that is best.

Yes the Hunting Horror has taken 2 Heath damage.

Tony should only gain Health with resting with Hunger. No Sanity gain! Sorry.

I bet the flipped AO card will say do X on a Mystic Ruins space. Good spot re. Hunger Condition.

Thanks, missed that! Luckily I didn't lose any Sanity in either Encounter and gained one from the Lodge Researcher.

Diving down Norman grasps . . .
For an old fellow, Norman's pretty active. :)
monkey's paw
Is this a reference to something, like an item in a game?

Don't forget about Tony's Purifying the World card. It needs to be flipped.

It says you may flip the card, but you don't have to, and I chose not to flip it. I'll most likely get a bigger benefit if there are more monsters on the card, and I want to at least defeat the Goat Spawn before I flip it.

I hadn't realized that even though I defeated the Hunting Horror, I still took 1 damage from it, so I've corrected that.

That Artifact is awesome! That could help me soften up the Doppleganger so I (or someone else) can beat it in a fight - if I'm lucky enough on the Lore roll.

The monkey's paw is a commonly told story. It's an object that's supposed to grant wishes, but it's cursed: the wishes always have some sort of nasty twist when they come true. In some versions of the story, it's purchased from a shop just like the one in the Encounter. The Simpsons spoofed it in one of their Treehouse of Horror episodes.

Yes, re. Purifying the World, I thought the same as Quatermass when I first came across the card, but the payoff is incremental, for example if one flips with 1 Monster = defeat Monster on game board, 2 Monsters = close Gate, etc.

Double team it with Norman. :)

So if I read the AO card correctly every time the omen track advances to the red space the Mystic Ruins gets moved to a new space?

Yes, and the Omen is on the blue constellation [left-hand] at the moment. Good news is we only need succeed at 2 Sealing the Portal Special Encounters, bad news is Doom is 5--let's not forget Appeal to the Council in the Reserve.

Your special ability reduced the horror of encountered monsters to 1.

The Wendigo imposes a -1 to strength test. Even with the minus you still defeat it but you will take one damage.
