[D20 CoC] Beyond the Mountains of Madness Campaign - Recruiting Alternate Players

First Post
At this, the game's start and Prologue section, anyone (who has an approved character sheet) has an opportunity to do a little investigating before everyone gathers in New York City for the September 1st meeting at the Amherst Hotel. You may make inquiries within your starting town, or travel anywhere that you are able to reach while reserving enough time to get to NYC on Sept 1.
If you plan to contact old allies and sources, I ask that you first provide me with a brief outline of the person(s) here in the OOC thread, their background and area of expertise, and where they are located, so that I can judge if this is reasonable (most times, I expect that it will be).
Tonight I plan to review and comment on Bobitron's character sheet updates and TZ's new sheet.

Okay, well obviously Annie is on her way to New York to see if she can find and convince Starkweather to include her in the expedition. I hope this is appropriate.
My character sheet is nearly done. I have just a couple of questions. First, feat choice. Are they pretty much the same as in D&D or D20 Modern? I notice there is a Skill Emphasis...is this the same as Skill Focus? +3 to a certain skill?
Also, how does one calculate income? Savings?
Finally, about equipment. I have no equipment list/price list to work from. Would you be able to help me out? I can list wardrobe I'd like Annie to have, and basic equipment, stealing prices from the lists of others. But can you suggest some specific equipment that a physician might want to take along?
Everything else was really easy to figure out...thanks for adding in all the details!

Questions from Eabha
We'll see how it plays out.

It appears appropriate for your character.Eabha said:
We'll see how it plays out.In my opinion, There are a number of CoC-specific feats that your character would want to make use of; too many to list. If you won't have a D20 CoC manual for a bit of time, I recommend that we use a voice-over-IP session to work through these two questions (Skype, a free download, works great for this! You'll need a microphone for your PC). I won't have any time to do this tonight, but if you are available, we could talk through these tomorrow night, say at about 7:30 or 8pm US Eastern time? As a last resort, say if your computer cannot handle voice-over-IP, I have unlimited long distance on my home telephone and could call you to discuss these things.Eabha said:
Sure. But we can make it even easier. Make up what you think that you'd need, including what you think a doctor might have in her kit (stethoscope, morphine, etc.). Assume $50 to purchase a full-outfitted kit. Later, if you find that you needed a unique medical item, we'll roll an Int roll to see if you brought one along.Eabha said:
No problem! My RL friend needed that extra detail anyway.Eabha said:

Well, as I will be away tomorrow night until Saturday evening, this will have to wait. If on Sunday I have not been able to page through a copy of the text, I will contact you again and set something up. I, too, have a great long distance plan. My work computer can handle the microphone thing, but not the ancient (circa 1995) laptop I use at home. Everything but the feats and income will be settled before I leave work today at 4pm and I'll go ahead and post what I've got.

Please correct one mistake on my own part when I typed my first review, which is that:
- His starting savings = $11,000. (my original erroneous response stated "salary" for this)
- His starting income (i.e. salary) = $5,500.

TZ,
You've developed a very interesting character with a strong background. I have just a few minor requests for changes:

Thanks!

TZ,
You've developed a very interesting character with a strong background. I have just a few minor requests for changes:
- HP = 30 (9 at first level and 7 for each level thereafter)
- Sanity = 70 (= 5 X Wisdom score)
- You may add 3 languages as a result of your +3 intelligence bonus.

Thanks!
