It began with a murder. It would not have been that odd in this town, if it weren't for the method. The victim? He'd turned to dust. Just disintegrated right out of his clothes. Rumors started going around about withcraft before we could stop them. We weren't sure if we wanted to. Something was going on. All we could hope was that God would have mercy on our souls.

Eight dollars for a new Skill, please. Oh, also I defaulted on my Bank Loan and can never get another one. But I'm Finn, so I don't actually lose all my possessions. Fun.

Tommy walks up to The Unnamable and busts up some otherworldly ne'er-do-wells, offering his $2 to Strago/Finn should he pass him by in the streets.  He succeeds in taking a bite out of crime, but is left with naught but his trusty rifle as he plunges into the Plateau of Leng.

[21:27] * RandomConsonant looks at the current turn of events
[21:27] <RandomConsonant> Well this is mildly unpleasant
[21:27] <PamelaIbis> Quite.
[21:29] <PamelaIbis> You're going into the gate at The Unnamable?
[21:29] <RandomConsonant> Most likely
[21:30] <PamelaIbis> Hm, okay.
[21:32] <RandomConsonant>Gonna toss Finn my $2 on the way if he wants to get to Innsmouth, though someone else is probably going to have to handle the gate at Devil's Reef
[21:32] <RandomConsonant> Because hey, not like I need money where I'm goin'.
[21:33] <RandomConsonant> At any rate, time to lay down THE LAW
[21:34] <Soppy-ClearGenderRoles> Leave a clue on the board for me next turn, I'll be able to pass my PS
[21:34] <RandomConsonant> Well.
[21:34] <Soppy-ClearGenderRoles> Well, one I can reach.
[21:34] <RandomConsonant> If I die, you get five clues is what I'm thinking.
[21:34] <RandomConsonant> Though we'll burn that bridge if we come to it.
[21:34] <Soppy-ClearGenderRoles> I'm already at 4. I just need 1 more
[21:35] <RandomConsonant> Anyways, first, the Byakhee.
[21:35] <RandomConsonant> Can't pass Horror, -1 San for me.
[21:35] <RandomConsonant> 10 dice against its one toughness
[21:36] <RandomConsonant> roll 10d6 to enforce flying regulations
[21:36] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 10d6 to enforce flying regulations and gets 37." [10d6=1, 2, 5, 6, 6, 1, 5, 3, 4, 4]
[21:36] <RandomConsonant> Byakhee is downed, on to the Servitor.
[21:36] <PamelaIbis> Who is best fit to take on that gate?
[21:36] <PamelaIbis> Splatted.
[21:36] <RandomConsonant> Again, can't pass Horror, discarding Obsidian Statue to prevent the sanity damage.
[21:37] <RandomConsonant> Its prowess gives me 8 dice against its three toughness, and I have two clues
[21:37] <RandomConsonant> roll 8d6 to enforce immigration laws
[21:37] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 8d6 to enforce immigration laws and gets 25." [8d6=2, 4, 5, 4, 2, 1, 1, 6]

Sanity 4/4
Stamina 6/6

Slippery - Mythos: When moon monsters move, Finn may choose to move as a normal moon monster. He does not need
to make any Evade checks when doing so.

Holdout - Any Phase: Finn never has to discard items or lose money, even when he is knocked unconscious or
driven insane. He must still pay costs as usual.
