Bits of door and metal rain past as you an Panako flee down the stairs and into the main entry way. The last rays of sunlight are draining away through the ruined walls and bathing the bottom edge of the stairway. Halfway to the door you hear a wretched, gurgling shriek and the smell of burning flesh. At the edge of the quickly dwindling light stands the horror, its hand smoking. It stares at you as the vertical maw in its flesh snaps and snarls. At the rate the sun is setting you have about ten seconds before it can cross. Panako stands behind you, knives at the ready. “Undead” hisses from her lips. You..

When you say CoC, do you mean corruption of champions, or call of Cthulhu.
My joining this quest hinges upon your answer, mind you.

>>39923727
Wait.
Actually reading the title very quickly cleared the issue.

>It has a mouth, maybe it can speak (will/speech)

No sense, holding up the show. I will take the next five linked 1d100's dc 18. Don't worry about same-fagging.

Noce to see you running again, Yog.

To clarify mechanics, Attributes give you a number of chances, skill determines the DC with additional situation modifiers. A failed skill check imparts a +3 skill advance.

Going to try and run as much as I can. Watch the twitter for announcements and game times. Thanks for joining tonight!

>>39924518
Nice success

Rolled 8 (1d100)

>>39924494
We Should have picked to shoot it, then.

Might be better to set the DC to (100-skill) and roll normally instead of roll under, it could help in case people don't pay attention.

>>39924574
I can do that, if people find it easier. I'm still working the kinks out of the system.

Also writing.

You hold your hand up to Panako. Nine seconds. “Hold on, if it has a mouth it maybe it can talk.” Panako stares at you, lowering her glowing knives only and inch. “If you wish to converse with such…filth, then as you will.” Six seconds. “Hey…you...thing. I’m Jim. You should really calm down, wouldn't want to end up roughhousing and someone loses an eye.” You can feel Panako’s gaze drilling into your spine. Man even you think you’re terrible.

The creature’s mouth snaps around its tongue which appears to be a hand, gurgling at first, and then chattering. It’s…laughing? It’s laughing. Three seconds, the sun is almost gone now, the creature inches forward. A low voice creaks out. “It has been a long while since I have laughed, mortal. Summoner’s usually don’t have a sense of humor. A shame I have been ordered to kill you. The price of existing on this plane. I suppose can grant you one final request. Call it cliche, but I think the priest I’m made out has made me a little soft.“ Its over the threshold and within arms reach. How did it close the gap. You...

The creature smiles. At least you think it is. Hard to tell when you're split down the middle for a mouth. It is inches away from you now. "Can you tell me the name of whoever ordered you to kill me? You know, so I know who to haunt afterwards." Your voice comes out flat, droning. Your limbs feel stiff.

"Ah, yes. A name. Names have power. I thank you for not asking my own. Pesky thing to let out into the world you know. I will tell you I was summoned by the one called Keating. Randal Keating. Not that it matters much. I'll be taking your soul with me." The hands of the creature dart to your neck and squeeze. (-15 HP). The reek of rotting flesh with the coppery smell of blood fills your nostrils. Why can't you move?

A shrieking sound whistles past your ear, burying itself in the horror giant eye. It screeches as it flails backwards, pawing at the glowing knife in its eye. The spell was broken, your limbs responding again. Panako is glaring down at you. "Pathetic" she mumbles stepping forward. "What did you expect Summoner, listening to trash such as this, now stand." The beast is severely injured. You...

Don't worry, you more than killed it.

You unload your Luger into the horror. Its screaming devolves into guttural screeches as knife after bullet after knife tear the rotten flesh to pieces. Not wanting to be shown up by Panako you cross the distance to deliver a final kick to the dying thing. The seams in its flesh are splitting as black ichor oozes from the wounds. It's shattered maw opens as a blue flame begins to catch on it's split blood. "Not bad Summoner, shame I didn't get to claim your soul now, but we will meet again."

The flames have caught to the dry, cracking wall paper. "Time to go, Summoner" Panako leads as she grasps your hand. The blue flames grow higher as the heat stings at your back. You are out the door and a few hundred feet away before there is a large explosion of flame. You can hear it, no you fell it more than hear it, the voice of that demon. "WE'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU JIM! WE'LL BE WAITING!" Then a scream cuts into your mind as you fall to the ground. You think you can hear your father calling.


And I have to cut it here. Short thread with work tomorrow. Thanks for playing tonight! Watch the twitter for updates! Should be able to run again on Thursday!

I can roll for you, then.

>>39927319
Thanks for running!

Never rolled a dice in all the years I been on 4chan so I thought I'd give it a shot.

Did we lose any sanity from that?

Rolled 21 (1d100)

>>39927350
Yeah I fucked it up but I think I got it now.

>>39927359
No. Your background being a vet in WWI has protected you against any sanity loss from gore or violence and you already lost sanity from encountering the animated corpse. So, yay for being shellshocked, I guess?

>>39927359
To roll you just put dice+(number of dice) d(nnumber of sides) In the options field.

for this quest, it would be dice+1d100

>>39927405
I'll make sure next thread to include a how-to for new players. Thanks for joining!

>>39927405
Yeah I forgot to add 1d100 and did d100 I'm too used to roll 20.

>>39927402
Huh, well that's cool hurray for seeing our friend turned into hamburger?

>>39927402
Sooner or later, we'll be so inired to these things stuff like the undead monstrosity won't even phase us.

>"Summoner, Don't look at it, it's mere gaze sends hu-"
>*BANG*BANG*BANG*
>"...Did you just shoot an avatar of Y'golonac in the chest?"
>"Anything that ugly and filthy deserves to die, Panako"

>>39927464
No need, the sticky teaches how to do it, anyway.

>>39927475
You saw many friends turned into hamburger, twitching gassed roaches, rotted from foot up from soggy socks and others simply just...gone. Gives Jim a higher sanity rating and some resistance to horrific events, but if a portal opens a clown car full of Deep-ones falls out, hes going to drop and do his best "fish on land" routine

>>39927632
>Clown car full of deep ones

I'd be down for that if they wore the noses.

>>39927662
They do already have the big floppy feet. "Honk Honk, sacrifice your women to Dagon. Honk"
