OOC: Okay. I need Wendy to take an easy test so that she can shake off her double Cursed Luck. |

Re: The Dunwich Legacy
Re: The Dunwich Legacy
Turn 3 Investigator Phase
"Wendy's got the bar covered," says Sefina. "Let's check out the cardroom." She and Leo stroll through the other door into a room filled with card tables and gamblers. "Now this is my kind of place!" She and Leo sit down at a couple of empty seats at one of the tables. She takes a wad of cash out of her handbag and buys a stack of chips. As she plays, she keeps her ears open for any useful information. For a while, she doesn't hear anything, and her pile of chips steadily dwindles. If you're looking around the table, she thinks, and you don't know who the mark is, it's you. Realizing that the game is rigged, she counters by cheating back, concealing an ace in her dress (not up her sleeve, for she doesn't have any). In a later hand, she manages to get the other three aces, secretly adding her fourth and replacing a junk card with it. She goes all in and manages to win the hand, getting back half of the chips she has lost. As she does, she hears whispered rumors about Dr. Morgan.

Re: The Dunwich Legacy
OOC: Good idea about the Flashlight. |
Action 1: Spend 2 resources and Play Flashlight.
Action 2: Activate Flashlight and Investigate the Bar.
Shroud 3 -2[Flashlight] vs. 3[Intellect]-1 -1[Cursed Luck x2], Chaos token [dice]0[/dice] (skull -2)
Um, um--reaction (Wendy's ability), discard Flashlight and cancel Chaos token. Chaos token [dice]1[/dice] (skull -2)
OOC: Couldn't keep Lucky! |
He led the woozy girl towards a side room. Wendy was disorientated and frankly didn't appreciate the man's intent or realise the desperate situation she faced.
"Oi! mate," intervened a red-faced sailor, "where are you off to with the young lady?" The man blustered, and the sailor took a swing at his jaw. Wendy, oblivious to the fight but now coming to her senses, wandered away through the bar.
Re: The Dunwich Legacy
OOC: I'm cancelling Wendy's reaction re-draw and taking back Flashlight from my discards. I got muddled between the 1s 0s and -2s and have since realised that I had a 1 in 15 chance (+1) to keep Lucky!--not odds which I'd take voluntarily. |

Wendy pulled at the furry ear of the bear hidden inside her cardigan. "Mr. Pawterson," she whispered, "I love you!"

Re: The Dunwich Legacy
OOC: Yeah, I just read "Treachery" in the rules reference and it says after any effects place the card in the discard pile, so Wendy has 2 actions. The act advances immediately we have 8 clues... Good luck against those rats! |
Re: The Dunwich Legacy
Turn 4 Investigator Phase
Sefina shrieks as a swarm of ugly rats scurries out of the walls and underfoot. She and Leo stomp them into bloody pulps, and then they return their attention to the card game. Sefina has to go all in again, and though she gets a terrible hand, she is able to cheat and turn it into a full house. It would have been less ominous if that hand hadn't been aces over eights, however.

Sefina takes her winnings and goes over to the door to the bar, where she beckons to Wendy to join her. Then she cashes in her chips. Leo slips her a derringer, which she conceals in her palm. "You'll need that," he whispers. "There's gonna be trouble soon."

OOC: Yes! let's get him. The turn after at Darkened Hall Wendy could play Bait and Switch to move O'Bannion's Thug? |
"All clear?" asked Wendy after she joined Sefina. Her breath inhaled sharply when she glimpsed the derringer. "Is that for..." she glanced back at the bar, "He's coming!"
Action 1: Move to Clover Club Cardroom.
Action 2: Action 2: Activate Dario El-Amin. Exhaust and gain 2 resources.

Re: The Dunwich Legacy
OOC: Sure! I'll commit Hiding Spot if needed. I'm sure that "commit 1 max" means 1 copy only of Unexpected Courage but you may add different cards to the test. |
Re: The Dunwich Legacy
Turn 5 Investigator Phase
The Pit Boss follows Wendy in from the bar and grabs her from behind. "Gotcha, you little urchin!" he snarls.
Sefina sneaks up behind him. "Hey, pick on someone your own size!" she yells. The man drops Wendy and spins around, just in time to get a powerful punch in the kidney. He still doesn't go down, so Sefina fires her derringer, hitting him between the eyes. He collapses, unmoving. "Come on, we can't stick around here." She hurries into the darkened hallway. As she does, she bumps right into another goon, who seizes her.
"You're a pretty one," he says with a leer. "You won't be any more by the time I'm through with you."
"Help!" cries Sefina, struggling in vain to break free.

Action 2: Engage O'Bannion's Thug.
Action 3: Play Bait and Switch.
Agility 4 +1[Resourceful (cost 1 resource)] vs. 2, Chaos token [dice]0[/dice] -4; fail. Wendy's ability: Discard Flashlight [dice]1[/dice] +0; success, Lucky! taken in hand from the discards, O'Bannion's Thug moved to Cardroom.
"Hey! you, ugly," insisted Wendy, thumping on the thug's back, "pick on someone you're own size."
He swivelled and swung a meaty fist into the air above Wendy's head. "Huh?" he puffed.
"He went thataway," said Wendy innocently, pointing emphatically back to the Cardroom.
"I'll git d' basterd!" he grunted, and the neanderthal loped off, swearing and puffing.
Wendy smiled and shrugged at Sefina: "What an idiot!"
Re: The Dunwich Legacy

"Thank you so much," says Sefina, giving Wendy a hug as the door locks, trapping the thug outside.
