But isn't using a loaded pillow considered cheating?

I might be interested in playing this game at some point. I've watched some other people play it before though, so I might know some of the scenarios already. It does seem fun to play though. I should be in around the same timezone as mikkofier.

Edit: Also the link to quick start rules seems to be broken, though I was able to find it elsewhere online.

Hello Wilhart! I would be glad to have you aboard! The campaign is in a situation where you can "walk in" without a clue quite easily. We also started with 6 players, and the scenario was written for 6 investigators, so I think the guys would benefit quite a bit from a new investigator.

To Wilhart, Skully and Bedlam - we should write out those spare characters too, so it could be the easiest to get together and roll all the statistics together in one go. Any particular day and time this week that'd be good for you? We'll be using https://rolz.org/dr?room=Call%20of%20Cthulhu%20Talkhaus and its highly convenient free RPG functions. I really need to donate to the fellas running the site at some point. :mrgreen:

I don't really have much idea for my character, and I've not played much tabletop rpgs before. I've been more on the audience. Tomorrow won't work, but the weekend and maybe Friday should.

Edit: I'll aslo probably have to print the character sheet first.

Which reminds me: You should upload the Quickstart rule thingy again, Putte.

I've put both the quickstart guide and the investigators companions up on [url=s://volafile.io/r/UyTD9A]vola,[/url] along with the character sheet.
For more información please reread this post.

Thanks, Handsy!

For Wilhart, I recommend leafing through the player's companion that was uploaded, and seeing if you happen upon a profession you'd like. The "job" often defines the character.

Hey, I'd love to be a part of this if there is room for my involvement. I've played the system once before, and have played New World of Darkness twice. I see that the design was for six investigators and you may have six already?

Arr, this is a conundrum. While I do not mind additional players, the current story is in such a neck that we've had a large number of new introductions and re-introductions that are still relatively "in the dark" in terms of the long story. As such, I feel that time is not entirely ripe to add even more new characters, until a sufficient level of "understanding" of what's going on in the first place is achieved within the group.

That aside, though, if you're the gutsy kind, do hang around and I'll be sure to announce openings when such present themselves. People come and people go, such is the nature of our little game.

That's totally A-OK! I imagine I'll be checking fairly often.

Uuuurrrgh. Sorry guys, I'm going to have to delay today's game to next week. I'm going to have to spend most of the evening assisting with sorting the estate of a dearly departed, albeit distant relative.

Next week will be secure, though, as I've managed to arrange the rest of said business to wednesday through to saturday, so sunday will be left free.

Hello all! Next weekend is going to be midsummer solstice, which may cause some of our players unavoidable conditions of confusion and un-computerability. I'll be quite certainly home on Sunday and ready to hold the game, but in case you yourself have suspicions of not being able to make it, let us all know here on the thread!

We might be outside roasting marshmallows by a fire. Would be hard to play on mobile I think.

I cannot possibly approve of Willhart's new name any more than I already do.
