After last session’s demon cat episode, which only took up the morning, we went back to the hotel and drank heavily until all hours of the morning. This at least had the effect of rendering the shock cards on Evelyn and Teddy moot. It also involved Teddy and Somerset down at the docks, shooting into the water while wearing nothing but socks, and Evelyn cutting bangs. Somerset’s player: yes, right, because a haircut is mentally stabilizing All three women players: you are clearly not a woman We concoct an elaborate…

Call of Cthulhu: Shanghai Side-Quest
We return for our adventures in Shanghai! Evelyn’s player wishes it to be known that she did, in fact, spontaenously combust at the sight of Ared Fey’s new shorn, hair-cut look. 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…
Call of Cthulhu: Shanghai ho!
When last we left our party, it was with: Alice dead Teddy devastated by Alice‘s death Saleem devastated by the death of his family Agatha Broadmoor, the psychic from the other group who we rescued from being sacrificed to Netocris, absolutely cheerful with survival Somerset WRACKED with survivor’s guilt – only he and Evelyn remain of the original party Ared the lone survivor of his own group & at a loss for direction Caliope struggling to maintain a hold on her sanity, and Evelyn… probably out of her head on…
Call of Cthulhu: Pour One Out for Alice
If you will recall, we left off stuck in a terrible temple of Nyaralthotep, having chased the god himself off with a molotov cocktail. After some exploration in the largely dark area, Caliope decides to try make nitroglycerin out of the dynamite Ared found in the back of the plane we stole (along with the chickens, but it was funnier to just mention the chickens previously). (Our backup plan is to try some occult stuff, but that’ll take longer so we figure we’ll try explosions first and magic second.) In…
Call of Cthulhu: Motes in the Eye of a God
WELL. In my absence 2 weeks ago, the crew went out to the Evil Overlord’s plantation, where things were going well until they very suddenly weren’t (apparently there was a massive Disguise failure, among other things), and they ended the session with the Evil Overlord ritually killing himself so he could rise again at a time of his own convienence, while also cursing Caliope (whose name, it turns out, is spelled that way, and not how I’ve been spelling it all along) to die within a month if we leave…
