Lodge Member Held for Questioning!
Headline



A Silver Lodge member lets 2 monsters loose in the French Hill Streets.

A gate opens at the Black Cave, spawning a Ghost.  A clue falls into the gate at Hibb's Roadhouse.

Circle monsters move, the Byakhee flies down to the French Hill Streets.

The Mythos spawns a Chthonian and a Shoggoth in the French Hill Streets.

The Reckoning card for this gate is The Body a Temple.  Each investigator with a Soul Pact loses 2 Stamina.  This causes Trish to be Lost in Time and Space.

The Story Continues was drawn before this Mythos.  The Mythos discards have been shuffled back into the deck.

Personal Story:
Passed.

Shift Speed/Sneak to 1/4, defeat Byahkee, engage Shoggoth (fail), spend both clues and exhaust bullwhip (fail), use Research (fail), try again (fail), discarding Whiskey because I died.  Hatbot can go eat a forest of dicks.

[15:45] <RandomConsonant> Regardless Sneak is going all the way to 4 because fffff cthtonian
[15:47] <RandomConsonant> I guess I could put it at 3 if I wanted to actually go somewhere but one die against the Byakhee for sneak does not exactly inspire me with confidence
[15:49] <RandomConsonant> As for the shoggoth I can get 7 dice to kill that if I don't fuck up the wither cast again
[15:49] <RandomConsonant> With two clues and the bullwhip I can probably feel somewhat comfortable risking it
[15:50] <RandomConsonant> Bah, my kingdom for an enchanted blade
[15:53] <RandomConsonant> Granted I could aslo fail horror against the shoggoth, but then I just choose not to drink the whiskey and throw it away instead
[15:54] <RandomConsonant> I'm a federal agent, why the hell should I have the stuff anyways, it's Prohibition
[15:55] <RandomConsonant> I'd get the clue back anyways and it has the advantage of getting me the hell out of there
[15:56] <RandomConsonant> (it is clues that are discarded, right?)
[16:01] <RandomConsonant> Mrf.
[16:07] <RandomConsonant> Well, even if I get stuck here this turn I might as well get rid of things that could potentially chase me
[16:07] <RandomConsonant> Because yes I certainly enjoy being trapped by eldritch horrors
[16:08] <RandomConsonant> Killdude check
[16:13] <RandomConsonant> Or I'll wait
[16:14] <AliciaFlorence> what
[16:15] <RandomConsonant> okay easy ones first
[16:15] <RandomConsonant> well, easy one
[16:15] <RandomConsonant> Byakhee horror, four dice
[16:15] <RandomConsonant> roll 4d6
[16:15] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 4d6 and gets 12." [4d6=5, 3, 2, 2]
[16:15] <RandomConsonant> roll 5d6 YOU ARE VIOLATING AREA SECURITY
[16:15] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 5d6 YOU ARE VIOLATING AREA SECURITY and gets 13." [5d6=4, 1, 5, 2, 1]
[16:16] <RandomConsonant> jeez hatbot is enjoying cutting things close
[16:16] <AliciaFlorence> always
[16:16] <RandomConsonant> Shoggoth time
[16:16] <RandomConsonant> Second verse, same as the first, 4 dice for horror
[16:16] <RandomConsonant> roll 4d6
[16:17] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 4d6 and gets 13." [4d6=2, 1, 6, 4]
[16:17] <RandomConsonant> Now for the godly wither
[16:17] <RandomConsonant> roll 4d6 witherings
[16:17] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 4d6 witherings and gets 12." [4d6=5, 1, 1, 5]
[16:17] <RandomConsonant> huzzah
[16:17] <AliciaFlorence>
[16:17] <RandomConsonant> Okay, 4 fight, bullwhip and mod cancel, +3 from wither
[16:18] <RandomConsonant> roll 7d6 to stomp this guy like a CSTW boss
[16:18] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 7d6 to stomp this guy like a CSTW boss and gets 14." [7d6=1, 3, 3, 3, 1, 1, 2]
[16:18] <RandomConsonant> Well I am amazed
[16:18] <AliciaFlorence> you playing on insanity clearly
[16:18] <RandomConsonant> Clearly
[16:19] <RandomConsonant> Well I could blow both clues and the bullwhip reroll to get three successes!
[16:19] <RandomConsonant> Maybe
[16:19] <AliciaFlorence> If you don't need them that may be the best option?
[16:19] <AliciaFlorence> Hmm.
[16:20] <AliciaFlorence> Wait.
[16:20] <AliciaFlorence> No point in burning them now.
[16:20] <RandomConsonant> It'd be the best option if I ganked Research for the turn
[16:20] <AliciaFlorence> You get 9 dice even if you wait to use clues.
[16:21] <RandomConsonant> The question being do I take the hit wait to do that or do that now
[16:21] <RandomConsonant> *take the hit and wait
[16:21] <AliciaFlorence> You could use the Bullwhip, roll the 7-9 dice, then use Research if that fails?
[16:22] <RandomConsonant> Because while I can take the hit, but I'd rather not with the Cthtonian on the board
[16:22] <RandomConsonant> And taking out the Cthtonian this turn ain't happening
[16:25] <AliciaFlorence> I don't know what I should do this turn. Probably grab a clue somewhere or something. Wouldn't need Research for that.
[16:25] <RandomConsonant> Yeah Nitori's in gjland so really it depends on what Andy would want it for
[16:26] <AliciaFlorence> (And since you kind of need the reroll that's more reason for me to not do something risky right now.)
[16:30] <RandomConsonant> Andy might have said something about taking Research but honestly I don't remember
[16:30] <AliciaFlorence> Ah.
[16:32] <RandomConsonant> What the hell, let's do it
[16:32] <RandomConsonant> dropping both clues
[16:32] <RandomConsonant> roll 2d6
[16:33] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 2d6 and gets 11." [2d6=6, 5]
[16:33] <RandomConsonant> roll 1d6 BULLWHIP CLUTCH?
[16:33] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 1d6 BULLWHIP CLUTCH? and gets 4." [1d6=4]
[16:33] <RandomConsonant> Awww
[16:34] <RandomConsonant> time to hit up GFAQs I guess
[16:35] <AliciaFlorence> Almost.
[16:36] <RandomConsonant> roll 9d6 help me GFAQs
[16:36] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 9d6 help me GFAQs and gets 31." [9d6=3, 4, 1, 1, 4, 4, 6, 4, 4]
[16:36] <RandomConsonant> fuck
[16:36] <AliciaFlorence> srsly
[16:37] <RandomConsonant> And now I can't use the bullwhip for the retry
[16:38] <RandomConsonant> So, try to disengage with three dice or continue on with six
[16:39] <AliciaFlorence> Odds of getting three successes on six dice is pretty bad, IIRC.
[16:39] <RandomConsonant> Disengaging would give me better odds of being alive but on the other hand I really want out
[16:40] <RandomConsonant> And at this point I'm not going to cry if I get sent to the hospital
[16:40] <AliciaFlorence> Fair enough.
[16:41] <RandomConsonant> roll 6d6 WE WHO ARE ABOUT TO DIE SALUTE YOU WITH OUR MIDDLE FINGERS
[16:41] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 6d6 WE WHO ARE ABOUT TO DIE SALUTE YOU WITH OUR MIDDLE FINGERS and gets 20." [6d6=2, 1, 3, 6, 3, 5]
[16:41] <RandomConsonant> And I die.
[16:41] <RandomConsonant> Five successes on 23 dice! Too bad about them not being where I needed them to be.
[16:42] <RandomConsonant> Er
[16:42] <RandomConsonant> 25 dice
[16:42] <AliciaFlorence> Hatbot is superdick.

All Gugs and Nightgaunts in Arkham are returned to the cup.  If at least one monster returns to the cup, raise the terror level by 1.  No monsters were returned.

Hex monsters move but no investigators are in the streets, the Flying Polyp remains in the sky.  Triangle monsters move and the roll was 4, all investigators in Arkham lose 1 Stamina.

The Reckoning card for this gate is He Is Everywhere.  If every investigator has 1 or more Dark Pacts and/or 1 or more Power, add a doom token to the doom track.  The requirements are not met so no token is added.

[22:43] <AliciaFlorence> Well I think if I can get out of this gate and seal it we win.
[22:44] <AliciaFlorence> Assuming nothing else goes wrong of course.
[22:44] <RandomConsonant> Well holding off getting loonybined would help. So, going big I guess.
[22:44] <AliciaFlorence> So I want to say yes? 8 dice is not too good odds though.
[22:46] <RandomConsonant> Okay, so changing plans
[22:46] <RandomConsonant> Shoggoth horror, 4 dice
[22:46] <RandomConsonant> roll 4d6
[22:46] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 4d6 and gets 13." [4d6=1, 6, 3, 3]
[22:46] <RandomConsonant> Wither, 4 dice
[22:46] <RandomConsonant> roll 4d6
[22:46] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 4d6 and gets 12." [4d6=2, 3, 5, 2]
[22:47] <RandomConsonant> Well at least the loonybin part is averted
[22:47] <RandomConsonant> Shoggoth punchout, six dice
[22:47] <RandomConsonant> roll 6d6
[22:47] <AliciaFlorence> Yay~
[22:47] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 6d6 and gets 21." [6d6=4, 2, 5, 4, 1, 5]
[22:47] <RandomConsonant> roll 1d6 clue the first
[22:47] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 1d6 clue the first and gets 2." [1d6=2]
[22:47] <RandomConsonant> roll 1d6 clue the second
[22:47] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 1d6 clue the second and gets 5." [1d6=5]
[22:47] <RandomConsonant> PHEW
[22:47] <AliciaFlorence> Yay~
[22:47] <RandomConsonant> And now to avoid Mr. Cthonian
[22:48] <RandomConsonant> roll 3d6
[22:48] <Hatbot> 0x01ACTION --> "RandomConsonant rolls 3d6 and gets 9." [3d6=5, 1, 3]
[22:48] <AliciaFlorence> That buys us one turn at least.

Arkham Encounters


Trish Scarborough - Pay a $3 fee to gain access to the private library.  If you refuse, move to the street.  If you pay, make a Luck(-1) check.  If you pass, you learn an ancient spell from a dusty ledger.  If you fail, you doze off and enter The Dreamlands.  Have one encounter there, then immediately return here.


Other World Encounters


"Skids" O'Toole - At the south gates of Thran, you are stopped by a red-robed sentry until you can tell three dreams beyond belief.  Pass a Luck(-1) check to tour the golden spires of Thran, gaining 2 Clue tokens in the process.  If you fail, stay here next turn.

Mandy Thompson - The ground is giving way!  Pass a Speed(-1) check to escape; otherwise you are delayed.

Good Work Undone
Rumor

As there is already a rumor in play, the special text on this card is ignored.  A gate attempts to open at the Unvisited Isle but is stopped by a seal.  No clue appears.

Triangle monsters move, a 5 is rolled so the Chthonian deals 1 Stamina damage to the investigators in Arkham.  Hex monsters move, Roland has the lower current sneak so the Flying Polyp moves to him in the French Hill streets.

No gate opened so there is no Reckoning card.

Skipped waiting for Nitori's action because he does not have $3 to pay.
