Recruiting 1-2 players - D20 Call of Cthulhu - Fog over Buenos Aires

[Drowned Hero]

starting wealth for fog in buenus aires (1d6=3) first roll was 3 so second roll:
starting wealth second roll (1d6=2) only 2.
third roll:
third roll for starting wealth (1d6=3) 3 again.
you know what I take it.
let's say he spent his money on the voyage to south america from europe.

Ok. take the 3.

 

[Drowned Hero]

Oquendo fell afoul of the military commander of Gral. Pico in the Pampas. The soldier thought that the young gaucho had dishonored the man's sister. Because of his new rival, Oquendo fled to the capital and his living on the last of his savings.

Because of that I'd probably like to have the minimum savings. And a horse if that works.

Take a 3 as wealth.

A horse is possible but you would have to have it placed somewhere. Buenos Aires is quite urban in the 1930 and it would be difficult to actually use the horse in the city. Unless you take a job as a carriage man taking some money for a tour of the city center.
