Just like last turn, dodge the Dark Young with no trouble, get smacked by a Cultist and then run away.  Then the Mi-Go beat me up.  Healed myself with my ability to begin with.  Also failed Nultros' check when I was reminded to try it.

[23:04] * @Yakumo slaps Soppy around a bit with a small salmon.
[23:04] * Yakumo sets mode: +o Soppy-ReturningToInaba
[23:05] <@Yakumo> If anyone's around I suppose I'll do the sneak checks now.  Again.
[23:05] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> For the life of me I have no idea how that happened. I didn't even type that
[23:05] * @Yakumo slaps Yakumo around a bit with a large trout
[23:05] <@Yakumo> It's a IRC command, it's in the right click menu even when you're clicking someone's name.
[23:06] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> Aha
[23:06] <@Yakumo> The bottom command on mIRC, even, so very easy to hit by accident.
[23:06] <@Yakumo> Anyway.  6 sneak, -2 for Dark Young.
[23:07] -eraniss.tx.us.lunarnet.org:@#rpgdlarkhamhorror- Yakumo invited Hatbot into the channel.
[23:07] * Hatbot (~Hatbot@cpe-70-113-207-78.austin.res.rr.com) has joined #rpgdlarkhamhorror
[23:07] <@Yakumo> 4d6 for dodging goats
[23:07] * Hatbot --> "Yakumo rolls 4d6 for dodging goats and gets 16." [4d6=4, 1, 5, 6]
[23:07] <@Yakumo> So far so good.  Cultist is -3.
[23:07] <@Yakumo> 3d6 for dodging crazy people
[23:07] * Hatbot --> "Yakumo rolls 3d6 for dodging crazy people and gets 8." [3d6=2, 4, 2]
[23:07] <@Yakumo> I'm getting deja vu here. <_<
[23:07] <@Yakumo> But it's only one damage and I'm immune to nightmarish, no big deal.
[23:08] <@Yakumo> 3d6 to run away!
[23:08] * Hatbot --> "Yakumo rolls 3d6 to run away! and gets 9." [3d6=6, 2, 1]
[23:09] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> Immune to Nightmarish?
[23:09] <+Random-AlexLikesToWatch> His ally
[23:09] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> Aha
[23:11] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> Mi-Go time
[23:13] <@Yakumo> ...how did I miss that?  Bah, just got up.
[23:14] <@Yakumo> Mmm.  I could try to punch it in the face, might be worth it... but only one fight.  I'll try sneaking.  It's -2.
[23:14] <@Yakumo> 4d6 to avoid bugs that keep brains in jars?
[23:14] * Hatbot --> "Yakumo rolls 4d6 to avoid bugs that keep brains in jars? and gets 11." [4d6=1, 4, 2, 4]
[23:14] <+Random-AlexLikesToWatch> <_<
[23:15] <@Yakumo> Hmm.  Okay.  How does this work for horror checks, do I have to make that now since I'm entering combat?  I forget.
[23:15] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> Yes
[23:15] <+LucaTrulyworth> Fail sneak -> horror check -> fight or flight again
[23:15] <+LucaTrulyworth> IIRC
[23:16] <@Yakumo> Well, my Will's at 3 and it's -1.
[23:16] <@Yakumo> 2d6
[23:16] * Hatbot --> "Yakumo rolls 2d6  and gets 4." [2d6=1, 3]
[23:16] <@Yakumo> So two sanity damage.  Still have one, I'm not totally crazy yet.
[23:17] <@Yakumo> Also one more stamina damage automatically, I remember that part.  I'll try running again.
[23:17] <@Yakumo> 4d6
[23:17] * Hatbot --> "Yakumo rolls 4d6 and gets 12." [4d6=4, 1, 4, 3]
[23:17] <@Yakumo> Okay, seriously, this is getting annoying.
[23:17] <+LucaTrulyworth> wow
[23:17] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> I had to deal with AIM dice screwing me over in BESM the other night too
[23:18] <@Yakumo> You only ever make one horror check, right, I don't need to do that again?
[23:18] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> On same odds, actually!
[23:18] <+LucaTrulyworth> Correct.
[23:18] <@Soppy-ReturningToInaba> Yeah, only one horror check
[23:18] <@Yakumo> At two stamina right now, which fucking sucks if Nultros wakes up.  I guess I'll just keep trying to run.
[23:18] <@Yakumo> 4d6
[23:18] * Hatbot --> "Yakumo rolls 4d6 and gets 15." [4d6=5, 3, 6, 1]
[23:18] <@Yakumo> There, finally.
[23:19] * @Yakumo stabs Hatbot.

[14:20] <Bardiche> It'll just hurt in hte long term because if it happens again, a max sanity of 1 is not pretty.
[14:21] <@Yakumo> Since we're doing the dice rolling thing, I'll do the Nultros check I forgot.  Was at 3 Will at the turn's beginning, so one die.
[14:21] <@Yakumo> d6
[14:21] * Hatbot --> "Yakumo rolls d6 and gets 3." [d6=3]
[14:21] <@Yakumo> Nope.
[14:21] <@Soppy-TalIsTopless> Tallychu

[20:10] <Bardiche> Finally.
[20:10] <Bardiche> Okay, so I avoid recoiling in horror after spending half my knowledge on this thing.
[20:11] <Bardiche> I then proceed to go fisticuffs on his face. Three successes to win, three dice. Does Cham get me an extra die here, too?
[20:11] <@Soppy-TalIsTopless> If you haven't exhausted her yet this turn
[20:11] <Bardiche> Also, er, +6 from my gun, so +3 after phys res, 3 fight, -1 from modifier.
[20:11] <Bardiche> Okay. I get 5 dice to use.
[20:11] <Bardiche> 5d6 to shoot the ugly Shoggoth dead
[20:11] * Hatbot --> "Bardiche rolls 5d6 to shoot the ugly Shoggoth dead and gets 15."12 [5d6=3, 5, 2, 1, 4]

[20:12] <Bardiche> ...
[20:12] <Bardiche> Hatebot.
[20:12] <Bardiche> Down to 2 Stamina, means I'm Nultros bait now. <_<
[20:12] <+LucaTrulyworth> Use the cigarette case.

It's Party Time!(Strangers Expansion Mythos)

Environment: Urban

Everyone is invited! Any player ending their turn in the Downtown Streets may regain 2 Stamina or Sanity (split however they want).

This card's effect lasts for only one turn. After one turn, it is discarded.

A gate to the Great Hall of Celeano opens at The Unnamable, spawning a Chthonian and a Hummer (Strangers expansion monster). A clue appears at the Witch House.

Dash, Triangle and Star monsters move on White, setting off the Chthonian while Hex monsters move on Black, sending the Ghoul to the Rivertown streets and the Formless Spawn to Backwoods Country.

Not that any of that matters at the moment...

Action:  Huh?  I'm back in my bed at the boarding house.  That was the craziest freaking dream I've ever had.  Crap, it's almost noon, I've got to get to work.  I'm supposed to meet up with a guy from the Sheldon Gang in the woods south of town to exchange info.

... This should be the meetup spot.  I'll just wait here a bit and then !!! Hey!  This crazy chick wrapped in bandages is attacking me!  Get offa me!

Damn, didn't mean to shoot a dame, even if she was crazy.  Might be I need to go to confession this week.

"Don't move McGlen!"

"Danny Sheldon?  What's the deal?  Why you pulling a piece on me?"

"Us Sheldons have decided that your Cassidy gang is getting too weak.  We don't need you mooks anymore.  Now get out of here.  Oh, and leave your wallet behind.  Heh heh."

"Grr, don't think you've heard the last of the Cassidy Gang.  We'll be back Sheldon."

======================
<Captain_K> Any dice witnesses?
<Chirico> Yo
<Captain_K> K, I'm moving to the woods to shoot a mummy.
<Chirico> K.
<Captain_K> Adjusting my fight/will slider left 1 to make it 5 fight, 3 will
<Captain_K> horror check is -2, so 1 die
<Captain_K> d6 to avoid sanity loss
* Hatbot --> "Captain_K rolls d6 to avoid sanity loss and gets 3." [d6=3]
<Captain_K> I think I'll save my clue for later, so I take 1 sanity
<Captain_K> K, mummy has physical resistance, so only 3 dice from tommygun
<Captain_K> need three successes against it
<Captain_K> 8d6 for powpowpow
* Hatbot --> "Captain_K rolls 8d6 for powpowpow and gets 26." [8d6=3, 2, 5, 2, 2, 3, 6, 3]
<Chirico> Wa waaaaaaa
<Captain_K> I reduce stamina losses by 1, so 1 damage
<Captain_K> Do you keep the successes from the previous round or have to get 3 new ones?  I forget.
<+RandomConsonant> The latter
<Captain_K> K, I have plenty of health so I'll just keep firing.
<Captain_K> 8d6 again
* Hatbot --> "Captain_K rolls 8d6 again and gets 22." [8d6=6, 1, 3, 3, 1, 2, 2, 4]

<Chirico> 1d16
* Hatbot --> "Chirico rolls 1d16 and gets 13." [1d16=13]
<Chirico> Well
<Chirico> Might as well just post it here
<Chirico> A member of the Sheldon Gang with a bottle of moonshine in hand stumbles upon you. Make a Luck (-1) check. If you pass, he's in a good mood and shares his whiskey with you. Gain 1 Sanity. If you fail, he's in an ugly mood and robs you. Lose $4 and move to the street.
<Captain_K> d6 for luck-1 check
* Hatbot --> "Captain_K rolls d6 for luck-1 check and gets 4." [d6=4]
<Captain_K> I have no money so I just move to the street
<Captain_K> Damn could have used the sanity.
<Chirico> You have money
<Chirico> You took 3 bucks from Cid's corpse
<Chirico> Which you lose
<+RandomConsonant> :/
<Captain_K> Easy come, easy go.

Ill Wind Grips Arkham!!

Headline

The first player must pass a Luck (-1) check or be Cursed

A gate attempts to open at the Graveyard, causing a MONSTER SURGE! A Wraith spawns at the Unvisited Isle, a Mi-Go at The Unnamable, and a Rat-thing at the Graveyard. A clue appears at the Unvisited Isle, but is immediately voiped into the gate!

Hex monsters move on White, sending the Formless Spawn to the Village Commons Streets. Dash, Star and Triangle monsters move on Black, but the Chthonian does nothing.

You still have to make the mythos Luck check, Cap.

Huh?  I was third player last turn, I should be second this turn.

Leo began the post-Nultros turn. That makes you first player this turn.
