[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 3019616, member: 4134"] So how big a fan of Call of Cthulhu are you, exactly? :p The problem with this is that commoners are literally good for nothing. They can't fight - the first attack has a high probability of killing them - and it's unlikely they have the stamina to flee from the zombies for too long. They'll be hard pressed to overcome most of your average obstacles, and failure probably means death. They won't last 10 minutes. There are good ideas here: Being 1st-level characters - or 4th-level characters, really (5th would introduce fly and wild shape)- would be bad enough against thousands of zombies, but they might have a fighting chance. And using storyteller - say, World of Darkness and let them make up some mortals - or make them up for them - would work much better. [/QUOTE]
