The Devourer Below
With XP from The Gathering, Daisy replaced Perception and Research Librarian with Disc of Itzama and Bulletproof Vest.
Skids, Sure Gamble replaced Beat Cop, he also carried over 2 XP. And he's got Lita Chandler in his deck.
We've got a further 5 XP to spend from Midnight Masks.
Here's a list of cards from the core set: https://arkhamdb.com/set/core
Skids will purchase Elder Sign Amulet (3 XP) and Hot Streak (4 XP).

Re: The Devourer Below
I see that I'd already selected my new cards at the end of the previous scenario's thread:
Also, Hot Streak is awesome!Mr. Handy wrote:

Re: The Devourer Below
Thanks, I missed that. Okay, I'll shuffle our decks later and draw 5 cards, posting them tomorrow.
Re: The Devourer Below
Daisy's starting hand. Take a mulligan if you wish but, oooh, she's got a Bulletproof Vest.
Re: The Devourer Below
Skids's starting hand: Evidence!, Knife x2, Pickpocketing, Opportunist. Take a mulligan...

Re: The Devourer Below
OOC: Daisy fighting in the Bulletproof Vest, someone would pay to see that... |
You are able to confirm much of Lita's story: the cult is agitated over the destruction of a ghoul lair. However, a surprising detail also turns up: the one who invaded the lair and set this night's events in motion was none other than Lita Chantler herself! You are not sure why this important detail was omitted from Lita's story - did she tell you only as much as was necessary to draw you into her conflict? But in another light, she seems to be fighting to protect the city of Arkham from a terrible menace.
The final piece of the puzzle was found written in a journal possessed by one of the cultists. It describes a dark ritual to be performed deep within the woods south of Arkham, this very night. According to the journal, the ritual's completion will open a gate and bring forth the cult's dark master into this world. "If the cult is not stopped," Lita warns, "there is a possibility that Umordhoth's vengeance will consume all in its path." Frightened but determined to stop the ritual, you head into the woods...
6 clues
1 doom token (starting penalty due to the 2 escaped cultists).
(There are 4 Woods locations.)
OOC: Skids to gain a resource, Play Leo, and then gain 2 resources? |
"Miss Walker, it's mighty cold in these woods at night," he shivered, but whether from the chill night air or their dread search amongst the trees was unclear, his thick houndstooth jacket may be a clue, though. "I was thinking about help--help from someone else?
Re: The Devourer Below
Daisy shivers too, wrapping her arms around herself as her torn clothing lets in far too much of the night's chill. "Sounds good to me," she says. "We can use all the help we can get!"

Re: The Devourer Below
OOC: Mr. Handy, if you are pushed for time, post the next day. I may well do the same myself. Resources or clues?--Skids'll compromise. |
"Hmmm," thought Skids, sensing a need for urgency but also wanting to be prepared. He noted Daisy's torn clothing, his face reddened as he thought about the snug jacket which he wore...
Investigation Phase 1
Action 1: gain 1 resource.
Action 2: Play Leo De Luca (6 resources).
Across the little bridge sauntered a lanky individual sporting a slouch hat.
"Hey! Leo," greeted Skids, clasping the Louisiana Lion's arms. "Still brewing that godawful southern hooch?" He took a step backward and introduced Daisy, "Miss Walker, librarian at the University here."
"She's not your usual type!" laughed Leo.
"Quiet, man, we're only--er--friends," he added lamely.
Action 3: Move to Arkham Woods.
"There's nothing here. Nice and peaceful, though," his voice echoed back.
Action 4: gain 1 resource.
Re: The Devourer Below
Turn 1 Action Phase
Daisy follows Skids and Leon deep into the woods, taking out a knife in her right hand and a flashlight in her left. "This is a nice spot," she says, "but there's not much of interest here. I think we need to move along. We may not have much time to stop the ritual."

Re: The Devourer Below
Upkeep Phase 1
Skids draws and gains 1 resource.
Daisy draws and gains 1 resource.
"'Move along,' sure," repeated Skids, eyeing Daisy's knife and wishing he was anywhere but here.

Re: The Devourer Below
Mythos Phase 2
Place 1 doom on the agenda (2/4).
Skids draws
He put a finger tip in his ear, as if exploring for wax. "I can't hear a thing, except voices in my head," Skids looked to Daisy with a quizzical, almost a dumbfounded expression upon his pale face.

Re: The Devourer Below
OOC: The worst result possible is 0, even if a Chaos token would modify a test to a negative. Tentacles are an automatic 0. Therefore Daisy may suffer a maximum of 3 damage. Oh, BTW, an additional, 17th, Chaos token (-5--squid) has been added. |
Re: The Devourer Below
Turn 2 Mythos Phase
Daisy screams as a pair of hands claw their way out of the dirt by her feet and grab at her legs. She tears herself loose, suffering some scratches in the process.

Re: The Devourer Below
Investigation Phase 2
Skids stamped furiously on top of the grasping hands. "I hope that I cracked a few knuckles!" he said, but otherwise doesn't comment upon the weird event apart from, "Well, that could've been worse, Miss Walker."
"Right," he continued, "Leo and I will do some more exploring."
Action 1: Move to the Main Path.
Action 2: Move to Arkham Woods.
2 clues.
Action 3 and 4: gain 1 resource.

Re: The Devourer Below
OOC: Okay, let's stick together. Skids may well have trouble finding a way out of Twisting Paths--his Flashlight can contribute toward a skill test? Also he has potentially 5 Actions and can Engage and then Evade any nasties who appear? |

Re: The Devourer Below
OOC: You decide, but the location, blue with two stripes, hasn't been revealed yet. Daisy'll have to Move back to the Main Path first. |
