Shale, do you want Shrivelling? My movement depends on your response. Tal may want the Releh Misty Mists instead, as a note.

This being said, booc red, +4 clues, but I'm no longer quite so rational.

EDIT: Moving to Witch House, grabbing (EDIT: ONE TALS YENZ) in the process, passing Shrivelling to Shale through Tal.

Changed my action.  Heading to Silver Twilight Lodge instead.  Tai, I'm going to hang onto $3 since one of the encounters there requires it.  You can take the other $1 for now.

The train station was handling larger volumes of traffic than usual, so the rusted train on the seldom used track went mostly unnoticed.  Some witnesses, however, swore there were shadowy shapes running away from the last car before the train departed just as suddenly as it had arrived.


Terror at the Train Station!
A rusty train arrives in Arkham, disgorging 2 monsters into the Northside streets.  These monsters are a Mi-Go and an Elder Thing.

A gate appears at the Witch House, eating Minh Thi Phan and disgorging a Shoggoth and a Deep One Hybrid.
A clue is sucked into the aether at the Black Cave.
Moon monsters move, the Deep One Hybrid wanders from the Witch House to the French Hill Streets.

I spend the 15 bucks to pass my personal story, which gets me another 3 clues and gets me blessed as well. Woo! I slide my Fight/Will to 2/3 and my Speed/Sneak to 3/0, which with the Speed skill gives me enough to hit the French Hill streets and stab the Deep One Hybrid in the eye with the Calvary Saber.

<Trodeko> Anyway, sliding Fight/Will to 2/3 and rolling combat with the Deep One Hybrid. Remember, I am BLESSED now
<Trodeko> Horror check, 3 Will - 1 mod
<Trodeko> roll 2d6
* Hatbot --> "Trodeko rolls 2d6 and gets 7." [2d6=4, 3]
<Trodeko> Pass
<Trodeko> Combat check, 2 Fight + 2 Calvary Saber - 0 mod
<Trodeko> roll 4d6
* Hatbot --> "Trodeko rolls 4d6 and gets 9." [4d6=2, 4, 2, 1]
<RandomConsonant> Gogo Blessing
<Trodeko> He's dead
<Trodeko> Indeed
