Re: The Carnavale of Horrors
Mythos Phase 4
Zoey is suddenly gone, and Agnes looks around desperately for her, unable to find any trace. "Zoey!" she calls. "Zoey, where did you go?!" Noticing a rippling in the water, she peers over the bridge's rail. Could she have fallen off of it?
Suddenly, a huge tentacle shoots out from beneath the surface and wraps itself around Agnes's waist, dragging into the railing with a brutal impact! It is everything she can do to keep from flipping over the rail and into the canal to her doom. Reacting quickly, she swipes at the tentacle with her axe, and it retracts.

Action 1: Activate Masked Carnivale-Goer (spend 1 clue).
Gain 1 resource and exhaust Zoey's Cross and spend 1 resource: Deal 1 damage to Salvatore Neri.
OOC: Hmmm. If Zoey misses her attack twice she'll lose 4 sanity! I reckon that she should Evade then draw a card... Edit: Just thought that if Zoey evades now, in Upkeep her Cross will ready and Salvatore will Engage... |

Agility 2 vs. 2 Chaos token [dice]1[/dice] (-2), fail.
The terrifying pink flames surrounded his face--his mask--no, what was happening? Zoey ran to and fro franticly, trying to flee from the Master of Illusions.
He shouted: "I am Salvatore Neri! Fear me, woman," and laughed, "for I shall drive you insane!"
"Oh Agnes! I need you!" cried Zoey, "Where are you? Help me!"

Re: The Carnavale of Horrors
Investigator Phase 5
"Zoey, where are you?!" cries Agnes, hurrying across the bridge and dropping something in her haste. There is no sign of her friend on the canal side, so Agnes searches around. She finds a hidden backpack full of supplies, as well as a treasure trove of information...but no trace of Zoey.

Re: The Carnavale of Horrors
Enemy Phase 5
Salvatore Neri attacks Zoey causing 2 sanity loss, split between her and Guard Dog who deals 1 damage.
Zoey knelt, trembling and alone. The Master of Illusions placed his hand upon her head as if to bestow a benediction, but in reality to suck on her soul. Titan leaped at Salvatore and wrestled with his arm; his nefarious exploit was interrupted. The dog lost all control of its senses, running in circles, before bounding away howling.

Re: The Carnavale of Horrors
OOC: I wanted it to be true--the power of wishful thinking. Okay, Zoey loses 2 sanity and Guard Dog returns to her hand. |
Ready Zoey's Cross.
Zoey draws and gains 1 resource.
Agnes draws and gains 1 resource.

Re: The Carnavale of Horrors
OOC: Good luck! Clue edited in. |
Investigation Phase 6
Action 1: Evade Salvatore Neri.
Agility 2 +1[Shortcut] vs. 2, Chaos token [dice]0[/dice] (+1), success.
Action 2: Investigate Bridge of Sighs.
Intellect 2 +1[Contraband] vs. 1, Chaos token [dice]1[/dice] (-1), success, 1 clue gained.
Exhaust Abbess: Move to San Marco Basilica; take 1 horror.
Action 3: Activate Masked Carnivale-Goer (spend 1 clue).
Don Lagorio engages and attacks Zoey. She gains 1 resource then exhausts Zoey's Cross and spends 1 resource to deal 1 damage; Zoey takes 1 damage and Guard Dog takes 1 damage, it deals 1 damage in return. Don Lagorio 2/4 health.
OOC: Before I update Zoey's stats I looked at her phase 5 and noticed that I forgot Salvatore's initial attack--when I flipped the Masked Carnivale-Goer, so that's an additional 2 sanity loss! This plus the move from Bridge of Sighs would drive Zoey insane... she could sacrifice Guard Dog's sanity back at the bridge? |
Re: The Carnavale of Horrors
Investigator Phase 6
Agnes turns as a gondola pulls up alongside her. "Oh, good!" she says to the gondolier as she steps aboard. "I'm looking for my friend Zoey. Perhaps you've seen her?"
"Bellissima, Signorina," burbles the robed figure. It removes its hood to reveal a horrible visage that looks like a hideous fish with many teeth. With a scream of terror, Agnes swings her axe with all her might, but she isn't used to fighting on a rocking boat. The creature, however, is. With a swipe of its pole, it knocks her flat on her back and then leaps atop her, pinning her to the deck. It kisses her roughly on the lips, cutting off her screams. Then its claw-like hands begin to hike her skirt.
In desperation, Agnes channels the ancient mystical energies she remembers from a previous life, launching a bolt of pure force into the creature and pushing it off of her. Then she grabs her axe again and, with a cry of rage, chops it viciously in the groin. Impossibly, the thing remains standing and attacks her again, slamming her once more to the deck. A woman standing on the side of the canal sees it and shrieks. "Run!" calls Agnes. "Save yourself!"

Re: The Carnavale of Horrors
OOC: Those deep ones--they're mad for it! Okay here goes, but there is so much going on it's hard to keep track of everything. Guard Dog loses his one sanity at Bridge of Sighs and is not around to take damage or bite back at Don Lagorio at San Marco Basilica; therefore Zoey takes 2 damage (7 health and 1 sanity). |
Don Lagorio attacks Zoey.
The thing wearing the tricorn hat and with the impossible serpent body took another bite at Zoey. She fell upon her knees before Abbess Allegria Di Biase, begging with clenched hands for succour from her Venice nightmare.
Poleman attacks Agnes.
Re: The Carnavale of Horrors
Enemy Phase 6
The monster is in no condition to have its way with Agnes any more with the grievous wounds she had given it...but it is still perfectly capable of killing her. It drags her kicking and screaming into the canal and underwater. It seems to have no trouble breathing, but the same is not true for Agnes. Her vain struggles grow weaker, and she knows that she will surely drown if she does not do something quickly. Terrified, she again unleashes arcane energy into the fishman, which loses its grip on her and finally expires. She surfaces, gasping for breath, and pulls herself back aboard the gondola. Waterlogged and bedraggled, she retrieves her axe.
