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

Committed Hero said:
Would you want a new PC, or is there an old one I could use?
There are some existing characters whose players have dropped out and you're free to choose one of those characters if you're interested in playing them. Here's a link to the character sheets --> BtMoM Characters

You can select from Paco (mountain guide), Vittorio (Engineer/demolitionist), James Poole (Cartographer/climber), Annie (medical doctor), or Father Rucker (priest/scientist).

Or you can create a new character if you have a concept that you'd like to pursue, but that character will need to run the gauntlet (abbreviated somewhat :)) with James Starkweather to be accepted into the expedition. Here's a list of the most suitable character professions for this expedition, and notes as to which players are currently in-game:
- Cartographer/Surveyor]
- Dog Handler/Sled Driver - This role is currently being played by Drowned Hero (Øyvind Raknes)
- Electrician/Electrical Engineer
- Guide/polar Survival Expert
- Journalist - this role is currently being played by Morpheus (Martin Leblanc)
- Mechanic/Mechanical Engineer
- Mining Engineer
- Outfitter (expert in cold climates)
- Photographer - this role is currently being played by Morpheus (Martin Leblanc)
- Pilot - this role is currently being played by Taokan (Camille Bardier)
- Physician
- Radioman/Radio Engineer
- Scientist/Researchers, expecially experts (maxed knowledge skills in his/her specialty, or someone who is well known as an authority in a field such as Archeaeology, Biology, chemistry, Geology, Glaciology, Meterology, Mineralogy, or Paleontology. - This role is currently being played by Drowned Hero (Dr. George Barrow)

New Thread

We've now proceeded far enough along in Chapter 1 that I'm ready to start our next thread of activity in the game.

Starkweather and Moore have finished assigning ship's cabins to each particular expedition member and I'll now start a new thread for Chapter four in the game which starts on September 6th, 1933. This possibly raises two questions.

QUESTION 1) We're not yet done with Chapter 1 which is still on September 5th! Can we continue to work on that chapter while playing Chapter 4?
ANSWER 1) Yes, you can continue to play through Chapter 1, getting in as much detail--and trouble--as you'd like. Starting chapter 4 will allow us to keep the story flowing while separating the two sets of activities and times so as not to confuse any readers. We've completed enough activity in Chapter 1 that it's essentially finished and I'd rather not wait until we've closed all of the storylines before starting the next, but this will also allow you to continue puttering around the ship in Chapter 1 on September 5th, making preparations, and meeting team members. At some point, I'll actually declare Chapter 1 closed, but we'll leave it open for now until everyone is comfortable that they've done everything that they'd like.

QUESTION 2) What happened to Chapters 2 and 3, you might ask?
ANSWER 2) The Beyond the Mountains of Madness Official Campaign includes chapters 2 and 3 that include certain activities that your expedition members may or may not pursue. If some of you engage in activities (whether in finishing up Chapter 1 or in working through Chapter 4), then I'll begin a separate thread for those activities as well.

Martin tiptoes over to the filing cabinet and takes a quick peek in the open drawer. Perhaps there is something in there that will help him complete his manifest quicker...or not...
Journalists are always poking their noses into places where they don't belong... ;)

I won't have much chance to make any in-game posts during this workweek. I am traveling on business, working long hours, and return home this Friday.

But Cthulhu is with me on my cab rides, lunchbreaks, and hotel room stays... :)
