In my tabletop group we used to call these player NPCs (non-prominent-characters). Basically, it's an incidental character you can bring into a situation much as the DM brings in an NPC at opportune moments. Doctor LeGraid's wife would be a perfect example. If the group ever head over to the...

Ah, but then which judge is Sarah Connor?

This is what Arabella knows (if you're not greenstar, please stop reading if you don't want a spoiler :) If you are greenstar, feel free to use this information as you see fit). The death is the talk of the faculty, but it's no secret that students and professors alike are creeped out by the...

Go to bed! Seriously though, no problem. I'm enjoying the mounting tension *and* you've given me an idea for a story about sleep deprivation, so your suffering was all worth it :)

No, no, you've misread me entirely. There was nothing wrong in anything you wrote. As you've now outlined, it seems he was merely adding to the rumour and that's ok. And you're more than welcome to introduce NPCs of your own design if they fit as part of your character's family or friends. As I...

Thankyou Sean :) Yes, it's fine. I made some OOC comments actually, just generally about naming and utilising NPCs or extras, or whatever the RPG/cinematic term is, in the in-game thread. I've renamed her Cindy, but I'll be playing her with the character I gave her in the previous incarnation...

OOC Some 20 minutes have elapsed since the interrogations began. It is now around 7:00pm and dusk is falling outside. Light will soon be needed in the hut.

Baran interrogates the male Stoor Q1 What's "his" appearance? "Yes," the Hobbit nods vigorously, "he's a dwarfses, just like you. Dwarfs is paying us! Wants it for himself, he does. Wants us to pinch it and gives it away. He knows you. Calls you short, fat, hairy, smelly and stupid." This...

Thanks for the great intros everyone. I've not heard back from Majic since his post yesterday, so to keep the game flowing we'll assume his character hasn't yet arrived. Majic- when you want to insert your character into the game, please do so. If you haven't shown up by the time the group have...

Yes, that's how the dental surgeon suggested doing both teeth. In the end a filling in one and the other came out. They're usually quite reluctant to mess with them unless they have to because of the proximity of the main lower facial nerve to the bottom part of the teeth. If you can bare the...

Sorry, I've been setting up my CoC group. I'll be able to post here shortly. OOC chatter and excruciating pain from my wisdom teeth extraction has been distracting me. Thanks for your patience.

I've set up the game thread here: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=4251846#post4251846 Feel free to start the game at your leisure. I'll check in here regularly too as I know some players want to continue developing their character backgrounds in this thread. Feel free also to discuss...

OOC Let the game commence :) Rather than rely on plot hooks or devices of that sort, I've prepared a bunch of 'rumours' which we can assume the group have overheard in the bar, discovered during the course of their various jobs, heard on the radio, on the tram, or wherever really. It doesn't...

Remember remember the first of November. A cold fog slithers across the Miskatonic river, tumbling over the broadwalk and rolling slowly into town, covering everything it touches with an icy glitter of damp, veiling mist, cloaking late night walkers and roving motorcars in a grey twilight...

Thanks. Discomfort doesn't quite begin to describe it. I'll live though :) Yes, I thought of that- had a whole array of suggestions for ways he might have dealt with the murderous intent of his old family against his new family (altered names and identites etc). But if it doesn't fit it...

Yes, I got the email, thanks Lucean. Great stuff. Though you didn't address my suggestion about Charles possibly dying before Philip leaves (I've sort of assumed the suggestions didn't fit with your own ideas though). I've not been great overall at responding to emails and such today, so if...

I'm going to try to explain myself a bit better, then. If I repeat myself from before, I apologise again. I'm not sure how else to put things across other than to say the same thing in different ways. Yes, they do have the best reason to be at the Witching Hour. Most of my points are about the...

Dire Lemming: If I confused you, I apologise. If I have repeated myself, then I apologise if covering the same point has in some way offended you, frustrated you or added to your confusion. If you feel that I am somehow attacking your characterisation of Adam, please rest assured that this is...

Hi Majic Welcome to the game :) I assume this is Patrick James O'Doherty, brawler and lover of the liquor? I'm hoping to start the game shortly. If you could let me know that you're happy with the character background you provided by email I'll send you a character sheet. Alternatively you can...

Ok Dire, forget about it then.
