Cyrus pushes the man out of the way and shuts the door behind him. "Alright, I kinda recognize that symbol you had on you before. If we're going to work something out, I need to know who you are working for and what reward you're offering. A little hint as to your motivation wouldn't hurt...

Cyrus gazes at the setting sun as the port of Sicily pierces the sea mists on the horizon. He is torn between endangering himself by giving away the Silver Bullets' location and his curiosity of the man's origin and this reward he means to give Cyrus. Silently, Cyrus creeps ino the cargo bins...

Cyrus will make a knowledge (streetwise) check at +4 to try to connect this man's face to a crime syndicate. If he cannot, he will give into his suspicions that any group as tight-knit and and competent as the Silver Bullets (a group that tracks down talented uknowns like Cyrus easily) would...

Cyrus eases up, but the thought of this man knowing about his plans for arrival startles him. "Yeah, tall guy, kinda spooky. Now who are you, and how did you know I was coming by boat?" Cyrus reflexively goes for his belt but realizes his guns are in the cargo deck.

I can't believe a book of NPCs hasn't hit print. Does anyone know of a non-pdf supplement?

I was wondering if anyone knows of any massive books of 3.5 NPC stats out there, you know- ones with stat blocks of typical NPCs at typical levels. Thanks for the help, I enjoy the occasional off-the-cuff adventure and the tables in the DMG are just not cutting it for that purpose.

Cyrus assumes that this well-dressed man has seen the hole in his jeans and is looking to make sure Cyrus isn't a stow-away. Somewhat annoyed, Cyrus replies "Yes I am. What's the problem?"

"Yeah that's great." Cyrus says. He turns the monitor back around. Cyrus will buy tickets with the very little money he has and goes back home to inform his employer. He plans to get to New York sober and on time and then take a boat from Sicily to Rome.

Check out Cthulhu 2000 or Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos. These Lovecraftian books are far from stale, as are Lovecraft's stories. If insanity bringing creatures and diabolical lore are not frightening to you, it may be due to over-implementation or just poor implementation. Cthulhu can be brought...

More info tomorrow

Cyrus is amazed that the address is genuine and that the Silver Bullets are to meet in a club. So amazed, in fact, that he 'forgets' his manners and turns the computer monitor to face him. "Hmmm. Guess you're right. Are you sure this is the place? It's important." If the man is positive...

Hehe... I second that opinion, being an angst-ridden teenager myself

Cyrus walks inside and is reminded of his hangover as the bells on the door ring behind him. He traipses up to the main desk and speaks with the travel agent. "Oh hello- umm, I got this address from a friend." He says as he hands her the notebook page. "The uhh, the friend is dyslexic and...

Ok, I think we get the point JD :p So you're not a big Lovecraft fan, and you aren't scared by his atmospheric horror. Ok. But you say he's mimicking Smith and Dunsany? I believe 'inspired' is a better way of putting it. Lovecraft's stories may not be frightening to you, but his brand of...

I seem to remember an alternate Necromancer class from Dragon Magazine that gradually turns you into an undead creature as you gain levels. I'm pretty sure Mr. Jackson has quite a few levels in that one.

What do you guys have against monks? They friggin rule! My Sun Soul/Psychic Warrior monk from FR could take any one of your PCs anyday... 3rd lv, baby!

"Thanks, Marshall," Cyrus says as he pats the man on his shoulder. He turns away from Marshall, putting his coffee mug down and grabbing his employer's keys. "Suspicious? Yes. But I can't say that a free trip to Rome and a job doesn't interest me. Is it ok if I borrow your car? I'm gonna go down...

It seems that everyone has a different idea as to what system CB would be run best under. Sticking with the topic, I'm going to have to say OGL Steampunk with Palladium and GURPS Horror elements would do quite nicely... :\

Hmm.. perhaps I'll just lurk on this game and hunt it down at my library

Cyrus raises an eyebrow to his current employer. Maybe it is the Rome. He did say Italy, not little Italy. Cyrus thinks for a bit while nursing his overheated coffee. "Marshall, the guy I was talking about said he was with the Silver Bullets. Do you know anything about those guys? Well some guy...
