He glances in the rearview mirror at it. "A loving tragedy. Someone evil took the spirit of someone good and bound them to that loving pumpkin. Coiled them around it, poisoned it, and enslaved them to its will.

Cleaning that up is on my to-do list."

Oh ho, I thought I had done my math right and there should be 2 NPC's left alive from JP's list instead of 1. Guess Blacktail's got the updated list. Kind of hard to identify someone dying of mysterious circumstances when they're a loving pumpkin.

I think I would say to my daughters if they were to ask me this question... A shitpost is the greatest gift that you can give someone, the ultimate gift of giving and don't give it to someone lightly, that's what I would say.

For those curious, I'm waiting on Hambeet's actions, and also Mills's actions. The main group can proceed a little further, but it's getting close to the two groups linking up, and I don't want there to be any messy retconning of actions for that.

Also it's 3 am here, and i'm going to bed! This was fun!

XyloJW

I'm definitely going to try to split the group up more often, just because it's easier to run smaller groups than trying to coordinate to have 8 people all be online at once. Once you all link up, there should be a good long period of downtime where you can each do your own things, if all goes well.

Bifauxnen, you mentioned looking things up on the wiki, and I want to add that there is a whole lot of Werewolf that I am straight up throwing out. It's a very fun game and setting and system, but as I said in GBS Auspol, they were schizophrenic about what they wanted. They want this to be a super serious, solemn game of horror and moodiness and psychological trauma, and then they give you rules that turn you into a giant dog that can jump over buildings and talk to hamburger wrappers. They do stuff like "Okay, you can either be a werewolf that gets +10 to all attacks and gets 15 actions per turn and automatically regenerates Rage, or you can be a werewolf who is very good at singing songs, and once a month, you get +1 when you sniff other werewolves' butts."

I'm basically taking a giant axe to any of the werewolf social stuff, which means I'm cobbling together new powers/abilities/weaknesses to unfuck the roles and tribes that had that stuff.

On your character sheets, you guys have "Glory/Honor/Wisdom". We're not going to touch those, at all, ever. It's a dumb, dumb system.

Haha, no worries, I didn't really want to spoil myself either, it's more fun having no drat clue what's going on. I was just curious about the cockroach really and welp.

Yeah, it's an evidence trial process exam - short answer, closed book. Not end of semester, it's only worth about 20%. Finally we get to learn about :objection:

I should've been doing dishes, but instead I typed up character sheets for two different sets of villains. It's a fun game. :)
