I was thinking the same thing! Haha now I get to sit back and watch hilarity ensue.

I'm afraid Camelote isn't in control of his faculties, right now. He sees nothing but the heaven that awaits.

How's that for some ace GM'ing? One round in and I take your player agency away.

Haha it's all good I just wanted to make sure

Splinters definitely wants to rescue everybody. Move people into the heavenly light, face down, grab the next one, trudge up the stairs again, etc.! And if I see a rope, and can see a floating friend, I'll try to rope them in, I think Splinters is not fast enough.
And Splinters will continue doing that until they are all dead, saved, or the door crashes open.

This morning's post will be delayed due to the unfortunate confluence of a work deadline and a kid home sick.

Boy howdy, that has got to be a record. I invite you roll up another character! PM me!

I have to say that was way more fun than it should have been. I am definitely rolling up a new character!

I had actually hoped that Vanis's upward lift would be enough to carry Flintlock upwards to chase after his brothers. Alas. We shall never know now.

The description of the moving fresco is what might generously be called a pastiche of an excellent passage from Alan Moore's one-million word novel Jerusalem. Highly recommended if you have a year or so of spare reading time.



Terrible cover, though.

Basil Day, the living painting, will be making his introductions this weekend at some point.

It's a good thing there isn't a Sanity mechanic for this game haha

"People come and go so strangely here," said Alice of our campaign.

Ooh! Ooh! I want to be a card!

sorry about lack orf posting, some of you guys are really on the ball every day!

okay let me know what I need to do for Shaggy and Mouse

Shaggy and Mouse are back up to maximum hp. Shaggy is still suffering STR loss. Mouse can roll on the Scars table and roll an additional d6 hp! However, as they are just waking from unconsciousness, they will need to roll a WIL check

Flintlock dragged the bodies past the hatch, so i think you can skip the WIL test.

Right. Shaggy and Mouse were pulled through, so they no longer need to worry about the terrible allure of the golden putti.






That is, until you guys decide to go back down the stairs.

SHAAAZAAM!!!

Is that the correct response to solve the riddle of this room?

I thought about trying to work that into my post...

Yesterday I delivered a lecture called "Punching Hitler." The slides began, of course, with Captain America, but I showed a lot of Captain Marvel covers. I love C.C. Beck's art.



So, yeah, he was fresh on the mind, when writing this post.

Hm... the plot thickens...

Today's update will be delayed on account of end-of-the-semester running-around-like-a-chicken-with-its-head-cut-off. I hope to get to it tonight, but it could be tomorrow morning. Apologies.

The Unseen Servant seems to be haunted, this weekend. There've been all sorts of problems logging on, and people getting shunted over into other's accounts. At present, I can see that I have pm's waiting for me, but whenever I go to my mailbox, I end up in Inferno's. So, until the server's cache gets well and truly exorcised, if you need to reach me, please do so via the OOC thread, using spoiler-boxes if appropriate.

Have you tried hitting ctrl+shift+R? Do it on every page you hit and it should refresh as your account. Then thank zhym for pointing that out.
