With only three group members there, Simon ran a one-shot with pregenned characters, so no-one's missed anything.

It was a blast BTW.

Ok here is the highlights of yesterdays one shot CoC:

GM used the Mr. Corbitt scenario again in honor of the folk from Britian doing that MP3 thing
Players=1/2 Beasties=2 and a half in overtime
No dynamite was used in the making of the adventure
Mordraine does his best snooty professor impersonation
Feel smells the contents in the pot and figures out it's spoiled rice goo
SmartMonkey just smells pot
Speaking of SmartMonkey, he goes bezerk on a matress before killing it by pulling off the tag...then gets arrested...joking
Feel buffers Mordraines fall by hitting the ground first
We learn: Don't mess with a bed having PMS
SmartMonkey's character finds out that French cuisine is better than cheap American fast food
We learn that the good quality alcohol all have French names, except Merlot. A good pint of Guiness is for those that are confused.
Hellboy comics rock
Feel learns that rolling dice is not a skill he has perfected yet
Cedrik Frye returns again to be killed again
Mordraine once again witnesses Cedriks death
They meet the self consciouss knife
SmartMonkey bitch slaps Mordraine and beats Feel up....and then eats him
Mental note: if 3 shot gun blasts don't kill it...I don't think a .45 handgun will either
Mordraine wakes up and gets bitch slapped by the beastie
SmartMonkey does All Flesh Must Be Eaten with other players
Blanche arrives and gives us the sunshine we need

I've got a Vampire one shot that could be run if people are interested if Simon doesn't want to run without two of us there. Seemed like something that hasn't been done in a while. Not, however, trying to step on Simon's toes. I'm down for whatever.

*Someone* has to be the conscience.

Max: Kill them all.

Camille: It is our Christian duty to kill them all.

George: I'll kill them all if Max pays me.

The Doc: I'll be outside smoking.

The banker: What the fuck is going on around here? You people are dangerous!

Max: Kill the banker.

Rinse. Repeat.

Sorry I didn't see the post on the Vampire one shot. hIGHLIGHTS AND CLIFF HANGERS OF tonights game:

Blanche Prez joins the group as Dr. CAlhoun
Feel doesn't make it to the game and his character, George, almost dies
Max and Bruce walk into a very bad situation at the office of Zachary. They get the cow
AlCowda terrorist are blamed for the meat taint....
More cow jokes followed
Barny is safe as a NPC
Camille invites all the NPC's she can think of and teaches them forbidden knowledge
Father Sheeve realizes that dysmissal spells can be risky as he loses sanity when he gets banished with Dhole #3
Dr. Westin rolls a 1 and so does the DHole
They try sneak into the RAnch but don't realize that the RANCH has a tour monday thru fridays
Camille tracks down the Dholes as a result of the 3 hour tour
Max fails a roll for sanity....and does his best impression of Bill Paxton from Aliens "Game over man Game over!"
Dr. Calhoun fails his roll....he gets the shakes. The party puts him on the bed because it's easier cheaper then putting a quarter in and having a thousand fingers jiggle you away
SAnity points flow away like a flash flood for everyone
Zachary ask everyone leaving to keep it like Las Vegas "What happens here stays here....right guys?"
Zachary is standing next to a car with a box of dynamite
Max thinks not and succumbs to Zacharies powers
Camille fires and pretty much blows everyone up
Dr. Westin plays GTA Topeka Vice and gets shot
Dholes are banished by joint efforst of losing sanity
Camille summons a catholic priest
Dr. Calhoun actually walks away with more sanity than he started with
Camille gets a glimpse that Zachary is a beastie....it's unkown if he survived the dynamite test
Next week the group assaults the ranch counter strike style
Max looks dead, sounds dead, smells dead, and feels dead......but is he really dead?
Will Alex make his move on Lucy if so?
The slaughter house has more mysteries?
Marge get a plank of wood in her back
What about the other Dholes?
What about that guy in the Texas sanitarium?
Is Zachary still around or was he blown to bits?
So many questions? So many horrors yet to be found

I PM'ed Mordraine but he hasn't replied yet. He usually posts ahead of time for Orpheus. This is unusal for him so I'm prepared to run CoC if he doesn't mention by the end of tonight. I think the other players may not be ready if he doesn't post by tomorrow since I know BoC schedules his dancing around it.

Don't make it sound to bad! Llamass is a legitimate faith organization centering on human rights. Specificly, Dr. Burkes, Max, and Cammi's rights. If a few Llamas have to die for it, they'll die martyrs for a good cause.



Ayatoll- er, Dr. Burke.

Tonights game was brought to you by the makers of Calgon, the Great Old....Here to take you away. Here is some highlights of tonights game:

It's now 1933 and Rick has made it to first base with some Hieroglyphics freak, ooops, Archaeologist hottie
George puts his PI skills to the ultimate challenge and tries to solve the adventure without any clues
Ricks hits a double in the 7th inning
Sarah Connely is not a prude...she just has good taste
.45 "Check", 17 clips of ammo "Check", Money "Check", Sticks of dynamite "Check", 50 feet of rope "Check", Tommy Gun "Check", Extra pair of clothes "Dammit I knew I forgot something."
Sarah askes the boys to accompany her to Germany to check out old Phonecian like runes in a castle of old King Ludwig the 2nd, AKA: Ludwig the MAD
"How much are you gonna pay us?".....
Rick acts smugs because he's got a girl friend and George only has Miss Handy
George counters with "I've got Money. That'll solve any relationship problem."
George hooks up with the maid in the cellar.
She's not a French maid and George gets cold cocked after saying "Oh no one will miss me."
Georges fate is sealed as he is sealed up behind a wall
Rick misses him and finds him tied up, naked and vulnerable behind a brick wall
Feel knows Germany better than the GM and points out the geographical differences
Hitler rises to power
Sarah is found missing
Sarah is found
Sarah is under control of an evil cultist
Evil Cultist owns castle and wears a toupe
Everyone unloads on him but he escapes thru portal
Ricks realizes who hit him over the head.....THE BUTLER did it
Rick tries to save Sarah by jumping through the portal....thinking "This should get me to third base at the very least."
George follows but ties the rope around a brazier
Rick and George say hello to a GREAT OLD one and her formless spawn.
Rick gets charred and blackened cajun style by a shrivel spell after making his save
George pops the wizard
Rick grabs Sarah who faints upon seeing the Great Old One
George pulls Rick and Sarah like a lure for the formless spawn
Rick gets his face bashed in by black ooze
Infernious wonders how his guys always end up being deformed
George tells the Butler and the maid "He's no ones bitch!" and saves Rick and Sarah
Everyone escapes but leaves their stuff behind
Teh big question of the night is "Is Sarah a virgin."
