Tales of the Caribbean - Call of Cthulhu/Puerto Rico Part 3

Cast: Frank - conspiracy theorist Annie - sensationalist reporter for the Hurst papers Luther - Jamaican trawler captain and adventurer Charlie - Archaeology grad student in search of the Fountain of Youth After the death of Nadla last episode the group retreated to a hospital or in Frank's case went on the lam. Also, arriving to search for the Fountain of Youth at the wrong time, was Charlie Gould, an archaeology grad student from Miskatonic University and onetime classmate of Bosley the missing historian.  ​After much shenanigans, the party regrouped and headed in search of Jacinta, the daughter of the dead Nalda.

Plumbers Needed at Highdark Hall!

Again gaming with the ever surprising Noah Steven's, this time in Dark Dreary Old England (or something like it). Pumped at trying the Transylvanian Adventure rules - an early alt setting for DCC (think Victorian Hammer films). The Cast: Noah - The Judge Mark - Theo Wells, Neutral Wizard (1st Level)/ Outlaw Michael - Dubo, African Albino (oft confused with being a vampire), Neutral Thief/Cutpurse Carver - Blue-eyed buxom blonde brute Huntress from the Appalachie Mountains, Neutral {This group is BEGGING for a Druid/Neutral Cleric} The band started at Highdark Hall at some kind of fete.  Afterwards, we were to  meet with the (butler?head zombie?) named Ricketts...who we were all SURE was some kind of undead. Anyway, Lord Highdark had a problem for us...his plumbing was backed up. A little confused, the three agents looked at each other and professed a lack of both plumbing training and the requisite Union card. Rotting Rickets assured the party that it was a more 'un...

Noah Steven's run Sour Springs Holla

When I spotted Noah posting a game on the DCCRPG Google group, set for Thursday night, I was hooked. Past experience with Noah as a Judge was he runs a pretty fast paced and wild game - sold! Noah'd posted either Sour Springs Hollow or another funnel (with a vote on which) - but I could not tell you what that other funnel was - I latched onto the Sour Springs / Chained Coffin adventure - which I've wanted to run or play in for a while. I passed my Luck check and the voting was something like 78% for Sour Springs...winning! Players and 0-Levels Cast: Todd Lars the Potato farmer and his goat Cloe Frederick the Arm Wrestler, a woodcutter Eric Bo the witch liquor bootleggers asst Carver the muscular buxom blonde woodcutter Paul Jules the Dwarf Jeff the Woodcutter The characters were invited to the 140th Birthday Party of  Ando Moscovitch in Absentia (a Hobbit with a shady past). Each arrived with their gifts - and a most of the part were woodcutters, Ando ...
