Taylor joined up behind him as the trio crept up the stairs to Crystal's second-floor apartment. "Hmmm, Ah figured a chap toting a body 'bout in the middle of the night was standard fare in the ghetto."

Willie wheeled around on him and menaced, "What? I don't live in the ghetto!"

Crystal hissed, "Shhhh! Get inside!" and unlocked her apartment door. Willie stepped inside and hustled into the room to drop the body off in a chair.

Taylor stopped at the door and nodded to Crystal, "Iffin' 'e does nah live in the ghetto, then why does 'e drive that car?"

Crystal rolled her eyes and shoved Taylor into the apartment.

It's lines like this that makes Medallions one of my ALL-TIME favorites..Well, that and the spooky, painful magic. Oh, and Joe. Oh, and the other characters. Yeah, and the sick twists like giant spiders and zombie brownie mix. Oh, and the sweet vehicle chases. And the attention to detail. Oh hell, the only thing bad about this storyhour is I don't get to play in it!

Great update. I love the chase scene!
From a GM standpoint I would love to know how the rolls went during the motorcycle/elcamino sequence. You know, in hopes of being able to provide my players with similar experiences. How much was creative writing and how much was determined by individual rolls? It seems like the kickback from the shotgun was definately caused by some sort of roll but I'd love as detailed a breakdown as your willing to provide. From this seqence and previous vehicular mayhem I'd say you guys have a great system.

Once again, kick#ss story hour!!!

Discovered girls. That pretty much did it for me. The second I started dating, D&D on the weekends took a bit of a back seat.

Strange, I would've thought that once you discovered girls, they (and you) would have been in the back seat, weekend or not.... :] ;)

Oh well, to each their own I suppose. :p

"Yeah, some folks just got no appreciation for a fine au-to-mo-bile. I mean, that's a nine-teen-sev-en-ty-NINE Lincoln Continental, with the crushed velour interior. Sure, it needs some body work, and the electric windows are on the fritz, and it sometimes dont run so good, but the air conditioner works. Well, it dont actually blow cold air, but it makes a really annoying noise that distracts you from the heat while you're trying to get the windows to work. "

"It was my gramps's car, and it's a classic, baby, I'm tellin' ya; a *classic*. Now just shuddup and help me those jumper cables..."

Great update Drew. I still say you write chase scenes better than almost any writer I've ever read, professional or not. Just pure brilliance.
 

Ah. Updated goodness.

Darnation that I don't live in Bham. I'm in Alabama again, but I'm south south south in Andalusia. Covington County. I'll wave on my way back to Ohio in August, though.

Good work. Reminds me I need to write more, been working on projects too much.

Another update is in the works and should be done pretty soon. In the meantime, I got a little inspired before last night's game, and put together a kind of "movie poster" image for the campaign. The crew seemed to like it, so I will post it here:

If that link doesn't work, you can get to it from the first post in this thread, or by just going here:

And, as always, thanks for reading.

Ah, yes, that would be the night's game where Willie lost almost all of his skin, and Joe got a new pair of eyelids. :confused:

GM: "What're you b*&^%ing about man, you only had like *3* saves to make to avoid incredibly painful and disfiguring ______ happening to your _____ from the _____ of the evil and malignant ______ of _______."

Me: "Oh, so I would have been ok had I made any *one* of those saves with anything better than the natural 2's that I rolled?"

GM: "Heh. Oh, no. I meant all three."

Me: <gulp> "So I was pretty much screwed when I picked up my dice tonight."

GM: "Yup."

Me: "K. Thanks for the info."

(just kidding Drew... well, sort of :D )

Man, did we love the movie poster, that thing is just cool. I love the looks on all of the characters faces, especially Brother Cooper.
