We’re back for our Call of Cthulhu game, and the shitteth hath hitteth the fan. Eth. If you will recall, in our last adventure, we finally found Jack Brady, source of (we hope) many answers – and then our loyal young local bodyguard, Li, SHOT HIM. Somerset, attempting to heal him, rolled a critical success – only Somerset is in truth the evil bastard Edward Gavigan, who unbeknownst to us, has shapeshifted into Somerset – and VERY NEARLY SUCCEEDS IN KILLING BRADY!

She also spent the first week of her journey drinking heavily, then took herself to the Captain to unburden her soul. The Captain, you understand, is French, and Evelyn does not speak French, but that didn’t stop her. Her referred her to the ship’s doctor, and the ship’s doctor referred her to the curly-mustachioed barman, who was very willing…
