[Random Consonant]

I fail the check and am driven insane.

[01:39] <RandomConsonant>> Anyways, can I get a witness for an impending Luck check before my internet inevitably fails once more?
[01:39] <Meu>    No.
[01:39] <RandomConsonant> Jerk.
[01:39] <RandomConsonant> Anyways, Luck's at 3, so two dice for this
[01:40] <Meu>    Been hanging out with Zelos too much I guess.
[01:40] <RandomConsonant> roll 2d6 for The Footlocker From The Black Lagoon

[Sierra]

Amanda gambles with her brain and comes out on top somehow.

<Mari> Hm.
<Mari> <Soppy-EatAtJohtos> I think it was this one:
<Mari> <Soppy-EatAtJohtos> You find an old book. If you read it, make a Lore (+0) check and consult the chart below:
<Mari> <Soppy-EatAtJohtos> Successes:
<Mari> <Soppy-EatAtJohtos> 0) Evil forces assault you. Lose 1 Sanity and 1 Stamina.
<Mari> <Soppy-EatAtJohtos> 1) You find the diary of a lost soul who died in the caves long ago. Lose 1 Sanity and gain 1 Clue token as you read his horrible tale.
<Mari> <Soppy-EatAtJohtos> 2+) The book is a spellbook. Take the first Tome from the Unique Item deck.
<RandomConsonant> I think that's right
<Mari> Assuming that's accurate, may as well roll for it now. I won't be around for the next couple days anywho.
<Mari> Lore has been at 4 for ages, I know. So, 4 dice
<Mari> .
<Taishyr> nitwess.
<Mari> roll 4d6 book
* Hatbot --> "Mari rolls 4d6 book and gets 15."12 [4d6=2, 2, 6, 5]
<RandomConsonant> Booc
<Mari> Indeed.

Tal/Vincent, you gain the trophy of BARNABAS MARSH! (Andy approved)

[Hunter Sopko]

Family Found Butchered!

The terror track rises to 4 due to this. Tom "Mountain" Murphy has packed up and left town!

A gate to the Dreamlands opens at the Graveyard, sucking in Vincent and spawning a Cultist and a Ghost! Moon monsters move on White, sending the Vampire to the Factory District Streets. Cross monsters move on black, sending that mass at The Universal Order of Dagon to the Church Green Streets.

A clue appears at The Unnamable

[AndrewRogue]

Dust Deck or Clue Tokens in the face?

[Random Consonant]

I have no clue tokens, so I guess I will be taking a Dust Deck to the face.

[Hunter Sopko]

I pump my Lore to 4 in preparation for the fight. Gloria then pulls a Keith and blows the monsters away with her rifle. Flawless victory.

!Actions!
Ran off to get my ass handed to me by a High Priest. Dropping Heal and the .38 (because Flesh Ward is so much better) and licking my idiotic wounds in the Hospital, I s'pose.

<Mageroni> That... makes me consider where my sliders will be, then.
<LucaTrulyworth> Just start over I guess.
<Mageroni> Yup.
<Mageroni> I'll keep Fight at 2, Will at 3, because he may be a dick, but there's still a Deep One to fight.
<Mageroni> And a High Priest.
<Mageroni> Alright, 2 san damage from Elder Thing
<Mageroni> 2 Fight, +3 from gun, +4 from Blade, no mod
<Mageroni> 9d6 YOU. ARE. A. DICK.
* Hatbot --> "Mageroni rolls 9d6 YOU. ARE. A. DICK. and gets 36."12 [9d6=5, 3, 3, 6, 4, 4, 2, 4, 5]
<HaplessHero> wait
<HaplessHero> you have 0 sneak
<Mageroni> Yes, and?
<HaplessHero> and martial law is in effect
<HaplessHero> this is a bad plan
<Mageroni> What happens when I'm caught?
<HaplessHero> You get arrested
<HaplessHero> In Innsmouth
<Mageroni> And then? Can I sneak out?
<HaplessHero> Where you have to roll Sneak checks to draw cards for a chance to escape unscathed
<HaplessHero> Or die.
<Mageroni> ... I can do that.
<Mageroni> Apparently I have stealth. Despite having terrible sneak.
<LucaTrulyworth> Getting arrested in Innsmouth is bad.
<HaplessHero> Jail Break: Each investigator in the Jail Cell during the Arkham Encounter Phase makes a Sneak(-1) check and draws one encounter card, plus one additional card for every success rolled, encountering one card of his choice and discarding the others.
<Mageroni> And I can discard encounters with a clue token, because I am Ursula. >_>
<Mageroni> Moving on.
