OnlytheStrong, I'll work on Starkweather's response tonight. I'll also add another post or two to feed our blazing story! In the coming weeks, I'll be pulled aside for preparations for Christmas, but will do my best to keep things flowing during this time. Job.

That's WONDERFUL news, Strahd_V_Z! Best wishes to you and your family. Take whatever time you need; PbP'ing can wait while you get your family settled. Job.

William Moore dashed across the main deck towards the gangway to assess the situation. He saw that the center of the pier shed was fully engulfed and that the north end of the pier shed was also now ablaze. Then... ...he heard music! "What madness is this?", he thought. Moore then looked...

Camille rounded the aftercastle corner and saw Starkweather, Martin, George, and some priest wrestling with a fire hose, then looked upwards and saw the crane swinging back towards the ship. The load of fuel barrels at the end of the winch's cable, high over the burning pier, was now beginning...

Post your letter at the end of chapter 1 (to avoid, as you say, disrupting chapter 4) and include a sentence or two that states a reason why your character might be submitting his request so late. Maybe he just returned from a different expedition? Or sabbatical? Thanks! Job.

The first drum bounced over the peak of the shed, away from the ship, but the second crashed right through the roof and apparently broke open as a moment later, fire erupted through the hole in the roof and windows shattered outward from the roaring fireball. Meanwhile, the sling of remaining...

James's d20 strength roll = 9 James's d20 dexterity roll = 5 [OOC - Gentlemen, please make another set of strength and dexterity rolls to assist the Commander] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Job (the tortured one).

OnlytheStrong, Here are some minor questions/comments regarding Wade Watkins's character sheet. I apologize for having so many comments, but I usually nitpick the character sheets at the start so that we don't have problems later. Some of my nitpicks are in your favor, though. :lol: - I...

This game is actually the D20 version of Call of Cthulhu and you're right, that version is hard to find. I see it on ebay quite a bit, normally selling for between $25 and $50 U.S., but if you're familiar with the D20 DnD combat rules, then you'll probably be just fine without it. I'll run any...

No player has performed any investigation into the gunman. Job.

And actually, it would be perfectly fine for us to continue running chapter two in parallel with chapter 4, or even beyond; I'll simply consider chapter 2 to all have happened before the U.S.S. Gabrielle leaves the docks in NYC. This will force some time constraints on what an investigator...

*laughs* We posted at the same time. You're free to create a new physician, or use Vitus with a few changes. It's up to you. My example character, Dayton Lomax Williams, the first post in the Character thread here should provide you with enough instructions to generate a new physician...

Wow! Øyvind's dice rolling skills have improved dramatically! ;) OK. He has 4 grenades, but you might want to have him talk to Vittorio (who is a demolitions expert) before getting serious about using them, especially considering his recent "Operate Heavy Machinery" results. :p Job.

Ooh! I had forgotten about Dr. Vitus Lambert! Good choice, and player Watus has not been seen in EnWorld since July of this year (hasn't posted in over a year), so that works just fine. Let me know if you want to change Vitus's personality or gear. To get yourself immediately into the...

Sorry that I didn't respond to this post earlier, DH. I became lost in the thread... :uhoh: To rule on Øyvind's possession of grenades, please roll a d10 for the possibility of him bringing grenades along, as follows: 1 or 2: 1 grenade 3 or 4: 2 grenades 5 or 6: 3 grenades 7 or 8: 4...

Yes OnlytheStrong! We can always use some fresh blood! :cool: Please examine the below links for creating your character and let me know what you'd like to do. Here is a post describing character creation that tells you about the options for using pre-made characters or for rolling up a...

Please make 2 rolls, the first for Strength and the second for Dexterity. Will your string of bad rolls continue? :p ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Job (the tortured one.)

It's a Keeper's dream to see two bad skill rolls in a row. :] Job.

Martin jumped onto hose, hoping to bring it under control, which was thrashing like an anaconda in its death throes. The nozzle flipped nose-down, spraying the deck with a blast of water and propelling the hose upwards--along with James Starkweather, who hung on with a look of grim...

Øyvind attempted to ease the sling of barrels to a stop but, being somewhat unfamiliar with the controls, he overcorrected the movement of the crane, reversing it back too quickly and sending the sling arcing skyward, watching aghast as a number of barrels of fuel tumbled off the pallette and...
