Re: Cthulhu Dark -- Everest OOC Thread
Agreed -- my mind went first there, too. Tragic.

Re: Cthulhu Dark -- A Secret Everest Expedition
[I'm going to move the evening forward a bit. If you wanted to make a heroic effort to hide the body for good, it will require lots of time and some strenuous to gather big stones. If this is your course of action, roll one "humanly possible" die AND an exhaustion die. We can insert ("ret-con") thi...

Re: Cthulhu Dark -- A Secret Everest Expedition
Finch joins Trafford in moving the body outside the tent. Exposed again to the unutterably cold night air, even the mountain-hardened Finch cannot bite back his sharp gasp. It feels as if his lungs are suddenly filled with razor shards of ice. The pain is excruciating. "Hingston should know better,"...

It's not suicide if you're possessed.

Re: Cthulhu Dark -- A Secret Everest Expedition
Throughout the lengthening day, Finch has been chewing over Hingston's speculation that they may have a new type of hominid to reveal to the world. But the considerable attractions of fame have lost much of their luster for the rangy Australian on this trip. And those fleshy protuberances attached t...

Re: MU Podcast 052 - Ruling the House of the Pre-Generates
Recommend starting a new thread on the Forums where members can post "pre-gens" -- to create kind of a NPC or PC library we all can dip into as needed.

Re: Cthulhu Dark -- A Secret Everest Expedition
Leaving Hingston for the moment, Finch crosses to the inert form of the "leper." He digs into a pocket and produces a utility knife, holding it warily in front of him as he stands over the little man, trying to make out additional details about his physiognomy -- particularly that horrible, fleshy s...

Re: Cthulhu Dark -- A Secret Everest Expedition
Finch shoves the hysterical Trafford aside roughly. "For Christ's sake, get a hold of yourself, man!" He begins pawing frantically through the scattered ampoules of Hingston's medical kit for morphine, emitting a steady stream of profanity as he does so. Finally he seizes upon a small glass vial and...

Re: Cthulhu Dark -- A Secret Everest Expedition
Seeing the sac of flesh on the figure's abdomen, Finch's mind is racing back to the glabrous lump of tissue they found outside the monastery . . . and it is a moment before his stunned brain can register the attack on Hingston. "Christ Jesus!" he shrieks, reaching for the handle of the doctor's medi...

Re: Cthulhu Dark -- A Secret Everest Expedition
For a moment, Finch is struck dumb -- the memory of the anguished and bloodied Champo La still fresh in mind. "Quick, get them into a tent!" he cries, unsure if the blood comes from the leper only, of Wangdi as well. Ushering the staggering figure of Wangi toward the tent opening, Finch begins fever...
