[quote][SIZE="5"]Halloween in Dunwich[/SIZE]
A classic 1920’s scenarios for Call of Cthulhu
By Oscar RiosDunwich is beautiful this time of year, with the leaves turning shades of [SIZE="3"]Introduction:[/SIZE]
orange and gold. You’re family left their automobile in Dunwich village and were being
driven by horse and wagon up to Great Grandpa Silas’s farm. The trip was like going
back in time; to a simpler age. It’s a warm day for late October, without a cloud in the
sky. Today was going to be a wonderful day.
Nobody knew how old Great Grandpa Silas was, but he was old. Really old,
maybe close to a hundred. That didn’t stop the man from working his farm or being more
active then men half his age. Great Grandpa Silas was a very fortunate man, well liked
by his neighbors, with a prosperous farm (a rare thing in Dunwich) and a large family.
He’s a tough old bird who enjoys the simple things in life, good food, a good pipe and
parties. The only thing Great Grandpa Silas liked more than a good party was Halloween.
All your lives you’d had four favorite days during the year: Christmas morning,
the last day of school, your own birthday and Great Grandpa Silas’s Halloween party.
The trip to the remote farm was a long one, the roads poor but your family wouldn’t miss
this for the world. During the day there’d be loads of activities for the younger family
members to enjoy – apple picking, pumpkin carving, hayrides and potato sack races.
After dark there would be a huge feast followed by lots of desserts. As the hour grew late
the adults would tell ghost stories before retiring for the night. You’re families would
then leave the next morning, returning home and starting to look forward to next year.
You arrive at the large house deep in the hills of Dunwich, a place where all of
you can trace your roots back to. Great Grandpa Silas had plenty of land; his nearest
neighbor almost three miles away. As the families gathered in the front yard, exchanging
greetings Silas comes out of the house. Greeting everyone by name (the old man was
still as sharp as a tack) he saves his warmest welcome for his six great grand children.
“Welcome back ta the farm! Ah’m ah hopin yer ready for ah good time, cause ah’ve gots
plenty planned fer ya ta do taday.†Hugs are given, as his rough hands sneak a silver
dollar to you, with a sly wink. “Lets keep dis quiet, don’t want ma grand children ta
think ah’m spoilin ya. Ah did da same when dey were yer age, don’cha’know. Come on
now, round back, Ah’ve got some cake laid out. Who wants some cold cider?â€
Yes, today is going to be a wonderful day. A day you looked forward to all year
long. There just wasn’t anything better in the world than Halloween in Dunwich.[/quote]
This is the intro to the game, and yes, you play the great grand children. This has a definate Halloween feel!

If I can make it, I'm in. But I don't know if I can make it. So I don't know if I'm in. That's the best I can do.

I'll busy too. Or, failing that, I'll have class the next day in Irvine, so... there's that.

Halloween's a Monday, actually. At any rate, I'd probably have a hard time making it nearly anytime, so don't let me be a factor in the scheduling.

I like your sarcasm and commentary...plus you as a person. Which is why I'm willing to work around it, but alas, I will be deprived of such pleasures. Thank you for expressing interest.

PC's for the game
Alice Sanders- 13yo-girl with a switchblade and secrets galore. You think there are secrets being held from you by the family as well. You come with your mom and look forward to seeing the other kids in the family your age. It's always fun this time of the year on the farm.
Edward Derby- 12yo-boy with glasses looking forward to the trip to Great Grandpa Silas's farm. The air, the food, the simple mindlessness of it all really recharges your mind. Your very smart and an inquisitive son of a Miskatonic Professor. You like to read books...and eating candy apples at the farm.
Gertrude "Girdie" Pope- 11yo-girl who most people, in Dunwhich, think is crazy...BTW, you don't care about most people in Dunwhich. The great thing about the other family cousins is that they don't see you as crazy and you're just another cousin in the family having a good time at the farm. Halloween! Yea!
Donald Sutton- 11yo-boy who loves the parties at Great Grandpa Silas's farm. The food, the running around playing, picking apples, it's something you look forward to all year long. You are an artist and like to sketch things that you see. That is just one of your gifts.
Gordon Brewster- 12yo-boy who lives the farm life. You make extra money for the family by cutting wood. Most of the year is hard work and you help out great grandpa Silas when you can on top of that.
George Weedon- 13yo-boy who is a jock superstar in training. Your dad is overbearing and pushes you hard at all the sports you do. You've been looking forward to this trip all year. Baseball, baseball mitt, baseball bat and rolled comics sticking out of your back pocket. Your good to go!
These are the characters to choose from. Mord is gracious enough to host at his house. Start at 6:30....Thursday October 27

I didn't notice that, sorry. I can take one of the others, if necessary, but would rather not play a boy.
