Saturday Game
Oct. 15th, 2005 06:40 pmSo this week we returned to Noah's Call of Cthulu game. Our merry band of Investigators headed to Florida to find the son of the professor killed in the previous session. He's got an inheritance coming to him, but no one has been able to contact him. We found wastrel son, one Colin Baxter, fairly easily and learned that he wanted to use the inheritance to fund a diving expedition. Well the funds and some money from our group. He had located a wrecked Spanish ship and hoped to salvage the fabulous treasure contained there...
While Brendan's Professor Hutchinson investigated the history of the wreck, my Reggie Abernathy (wealthy layabout and ex-soldier) and Miles' Richard Mason learned how to dive, 1920's style. Then we headed out, with poor venerable Hutchinson picking up the basics of diving as well. Finding the wreck we salvaged a chest full of silver bars and a gold necklace with a strange inscription. Hoping to find more loot or artifacts, Colin and the Prof went for another dive. Where the dice turned on Brendan and he almost died. We managed to stabalize him but had to head back to town to get him to a hospital...
And there the local sheriff arrested Reggie and Colin, saying that they had murdered a local priest and friend of Colins. The police also took the Prof away, supposedly to a hospital. Mason, after being warned to leave town, instead investigated the murder. At the same time the police were revealed to be crazy ass Creole cultists with some half-monster witch woman leader. They healed Hutchinson but held us all prisoner. Mason managed to locate the cult's lair and burst in shotguns ablaze in a rescue attempt. Unfortunately he wasn't soon enough to save Reggie who was gutted by the cult leader. He did free Prof Hutchinson and the two engaged in a total bloodbath of revenge on the cult, killing them all and burning down there base...
So my character died, mostly for constantly mouthing off to his captors and fighting them at every chance. They gutted him while he was tied AND shackled to a chair. Cowardly little bitches...
