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

[Job]

Today is the first time in three weeks that I've had 2 fairly good days in a row. It does appear that my health has turned a corner. I'm not yet fully recovered, but this is a good sign. I hope to resume my writings within the coming days. I'll stay in touch.

Good to hear your better

I would be interested in joining this game, if you are still looking for players?

I don't have d20 CoC, but am familiar with the BRP version. Could someone please give me a quick rundown of which pcs are currently active? Also what stage is the adventure at? (I will read through the threads if I start playing, but don't want to do so before I'm definitely in!).

Hello Zinoviev Letter!

I apologize for the long delay in this response, but if you've read a few of my recent "Out of Character" posts, you'll notice that I've been terribly ill of late. I'm now starting to feel somewhat normal and am beginning to get this adventure moving again.

You are absolutely welcome to join us if you are still interested in participating. Your familiarity with the CoC BRP will serve you well. Here are answers to your other questions.

According to that the currently active party members are:

Martin Leblanc (photographer/journalist)
Oyvind Raknes (sled driver)
Camille Bardier (pilot)
Dr George Barrow (scientist)
A.N. Other (physician)

Is that correct?

All are correct except that the physician, Annie Mahoney, has dropped out.

If so, could someone fill me in, relatively briefly, on the story so far? I gather that the story has progressed quite far, so a short potted history would be useful. Then, assuming there's room, I'll put together a character. I'll need some assistance with that probably as I'm not familiar with the D20 Cthulhu ruleset. There are quite a few roles on the list open, both of a physical / technical type and of a more cerebral type. Which would be of most use to the expedition? Is there any particular job which most urgently needs to be filled?

Here is a post describing character creation

And below is a brief Summary of our story to date:

Prologue: Within this starting thread, our intrepid adventurers applied via letter to Commander Starkweather to join the expedition. Some main NPC's were introduced. Those player characters that were accepted on the expedition attended a fundraising banquet which was interrupted by a gunman.

Chapter 1: Our player characters arrived in New York City, visited their ship, the SS Gabrielle, and began preparations for the journey. They attended daily briefings from Commander Starkweather and Professor Moore, the expedition's main scientific leader. Some players began nosing around the ship, looking for information about fellow shipmembers

Chapter 4: Our story is currently underway here. Most preparations are complete and the characters are beginning to board the SS Gabrielle to get their cabin assignments and meet their shipmates. The expedition is scheduled to depart New York City for Antarctica within the next 2 days (gametime).

Just checking in with you, Job! I was reviewing some early posts and was reminder how awesome those newspaper articles you whip up are.

Glad to see the game continues despite the challenges.

Hello again, Bobitron!

Thanks for stopping by. It's always good to hear from past expedition players and I'm sure that you've noticed that your character has been assigned his cabin.

I'm now hoping that we'll now have a nice run, without a lot of real-life challenges, and that our game will gather steam.

Hey, I noticed that my "Angst" game on the Groovy Gamers site was lost due to a move of the bulletin board during a period when I was extremely busy and wasn't checking in. I really loved that game and am very disappointed, as are my players, that it's gone. Did anyone archive any old copies that might be stored on a hard drive somewhere? Just hoping...

Darn it!

We get a couple of new interested players just as I go on vacation and then become ill for 3 weeks. Go figure. :\

I correct myself. I did found.

I did not work for me as i lack forum privileges. Maybe only you got it for this thread Job.

I also tried to send a personal message to Zinoviev, but couldn't due to EnWorld limitations on my account. That's strange since I paid as a Community Supporter, but I'll have to go confirm that they haven't overlooked giving me the proper functions.

There were also a couple of other players who were in contact with me, so I'll have to email them. Keep your fingers crossed.

I have sent a personal message to one potential player from Yog-Sothoth.

I've also requested that the EnWorld administrator activate my ability to send personal messages via EnWorld (I paid as a Community Supporter in June, but they haven't activated my account yet). Once they activate my account, I'll send PM's to our two EnWorlders who showed interest in playing BtMoM.
