Good grief.

Jacqueline casts Flesh Ward in response to the attack on Finn. (Lore: 4 4 4 6)

Flesh Ward, 1+ successes posted:

It is unpleasant to watch the transformation, even when it succeeds. Lose 1 Sanity.

TURN 3 - MYTHOS TURN

A Mythos card is drawn. 17 cards remain.

Mythos posted:

Fractured Reality - - Blue (Clues, Rumour)

The strange phenomenon is an echo of the catastrophic destruction of Mu. The repercussions of the serpent people's overreaching ambition still take their toll.

Place 4 tokens on this card. As an encounter, an investigator on space 2 may use an ancient portal created by a long-dead wizard of Mu; he resolves a Gate Encounter. If the effect allows him to 'close this Gate', solve this Rumour instead. When there are no Eldritch tokens on this card, advance Doom by 1 for each Gate on the board. On a Reckoning, remove 1 Eldritch token from this card.

To make up for the encounter phase, have possibly the single most toothless Rumour card in the game. A Reckoning would have had the Dhole wreaking merry havoc. Bah.

Clues spawn on The Snowy Mountains, The City of the Elder Things, and 12.

The current Mystery is complete! (1/4) A new Mystery card is drawn:

An Alien Ritual posted:

The elder things have abducted countless humans, brainwashing them and forcing them to perform some heinous ritual for an unknown purpose.

When this card enters play, place a Mystery token on Lake Camp. As an encounter, an investigator on Lake Camp may attempt to free the minds of the dominated humans; a Cultist monster ambushes them! If the investigator passes the Lore test, he may discard 1 Ally asset and spend 1 Clue to place an Eldritch token on this card.

At the end of the Mythos phase, if there are 6 Eldritch tokens on this card, solve this Mystery.

TURN 4 - ACTION PHASE

Action Queue
- Agnes: Move to Plateau of Leng?
- Everyone: 2 actions.

I'll pass on moving to Leng. I can take charge on this mystery, so if Daisy can feed me some Clues that would be appreciated. The Shoggoth shouldn't be too bad.

Agnes Baker - Lore 4, Influence 3, Observation 2, Strength 2, Will 2. 6/7 Health, 5/5 Sanity. 2 Clues, 0 Focus, 0 Tickets.

Agnes was feeling less apprehensive about this venture every day. Monsters stood no chance against her mystic prowess. Rips in dimensions were hardly more challenging. If only she could remember more about her past life, she would be invincible.

1. Personal Action: Test Lore-1 (3 dice) to gain a spell.
2. Move to Frozen Waste.

Encounter: Frozen Waste.

The mystery says: we have to to go kill the Shoggoth on the lake camp, and stand there while it spawns cultists. In this scenario, if you pass a lore test on a cultist, you get a free ally.

At least one of us should stay on the pyramids, finish off the dhole, and close the gate before it makes doom. As a frail weakling personally hated by the cosmos itself, I call not it.

No wait, I just realized I got the Monster Hunter. NO DIE ROLL REQUIRED.

Jacqueline: 1) Monster Hunter does 1 damage to the dhole, KILLING THE FUCKER WITH NO CHANCE OF FAILURE
2) Rest.

I should be good to handle the gate, my stats skew that direction. But, uh, you guys have seen my die rolls. If you think I need a backup I won't argue.

The only actions that monsters prevent are resting and acquire assets, any other action is fair game.

Charlie kept getting reports about monsters appearing all over the world, from Egypt to Antarctica, but there remained little Charlie could do from San Francisco.

Besides assisting those in the field.

Unless someone has a better idea I'll move to Rome and rest. The oplan being to try and get to Daisy for some curse removal in the near future.

Rome encounter.

I don't see an entry for Diana for Reckoning??

If Diana uses personal action against the cultist in Rome, does it become an ally, or just go away?

Alternately, should I move this cultist to someone else's space so they can get the cultist?

Also, Can Daisy come to Diana, since there is a gate in Rome it might be better to have Daisy and Diana attempt to close the gate.

If no one else got hurt, I'll Flesh Ward Finn's boo boo.
If Finn takes the dark pact, I'll peek at it.

Assuming I don't get dumped into time and space or anything

1) Move to rome (unless Finn gives me a ride there)
2) Focus
2b) If Finn did give me a ride, take a boat ticket.

ALTERNATE PLAN
If Finn takes me to Istanbul, then:
1) Travel to Shanghai via train ticket
2) Focus
This would let me get to that rumor next turn to start working on it.
