Mandy took an axe and left the library ready to fight. FW slider to 3/2
She headed to Unvisited Isle. Ugly monster did not scare her. - Interesting creature... I need to take some samples of it...
Mandy sliced the creature in pieces When all samples were extracted and packed, she washed her hands in the river and started reading the old journal... It was very interesting

Mandy hacks the Ghoul to bits and collects it as a trophy! She also receives 3 clue tokens and enters the first area of the Great Hall.
Btw, reading a Tome should be done BEFORE combat, since engaging combat with a monster results in losing all movement points. Keep this in mind next time.
So your jumping into the gate? Cool, I'll take the next one if possible, Great Hall of Celeano is not particularly dangerous.
I am going to go to the Silver Twilight lodge and hope to get some items or extra clues. Even with a Elder Sign I can always use clues!
Also I could trade one of these spells to someone.
The door to the diner burst open as a woman rushed out, several people jumped out of the way, not wanting to deal with the determined looking woman clearly spoiling for a fight. (Use Focus to change Fight/Will to 3/2)
Glorida consulted her Map of Arkham as she rushed by the unknowing masses and found a shortcut to the Silver Twilight Lodge.
She knew Sanford from a book signing two years ago, he had called her latest book enlightening and offered her a membership to his organization.
He was creepy as hell, though her definition of what constituted that word had changed recently.
Maybe the invitation was still open.
The man had been in her visions, but was he an ally or the cause of this whole mess?
It pays to be well financed but don't worry mi-go, all the magic items in the world will not help against Hastur...

He's a shy overambitious dog-catcher on the wrong side of the law. She's an orphaned psychic mercenary with the power to bend men's minds. They fight crime!

Kate left the Science building and lazily made her way through the University.
She had some research to do, and she needed somewhere out of the way to do it. Making her way to the nearby Woods she looked around, it was dark but she felt secure with her technology with her, and was convinced it would deal with anything supernatural as all science eventually did.
The area showed recent signs of occult activity, which was not concealed at all. Excellant, this is just the area she was after, now all she needed to do was sit back and wait for something to supernatural to learn its place!
(Move to The Woods and pick up the Clue token)
Gloria thinks there's something to this terrible play about the strange things the newspapers have been talking about, but I don't know. I guess I have some time while I wait for my sister's train ...
Well, I better get going ... I'm not liking the looks of the types in this station anymore.
Stay at the Train Station and try to read the King in Yellow, unsuccessfully. Jenny isn't the sharpest dilettante in Arkham. If anyone with a better Lore wants my King in Yellow I'll bring it over; 4 clue tokens is pretty nice, especially with Hastur making sealing extra pricey.
Also, sorry for the delay, can't get invisible castle to work for anything, so had to go with orokos instead.
Hmm, well I could meet up with Jenny at the curiosity shop or newspaper next turn depending on what happens in the mythos, either of those locations would be good for me to gather clues or get items.
I could trade you a healing spell for the book, you'll no doubt need it...

ARKHAM ENCOUNTERS:
Jenny Barnes at the Train Station:
A stranger in a turban steps off the Boston local train with a crazed look on his face. Make a Luck (-1) check. If you pass, the man pulls a strange object from beneath his cloak and gives it to you. Draw 1 Unique Item. If you fail, he pulls a poisoned blade out of his cloak and stabs you. Roll a die and lose that much Stamina. @caliber to test his luck...
Kate Winthrop at the Woods:
You have stumbled on a still owned by the Sheldon Gang. Make a Sneak (-1) check. If you pass, skulk away without being seen. If you fail, lose 2 Stamina as the Sheldon Gang works you over while escorting you from the woods. In either case, move to the street. @Cerberus to avoid the ruthless gang.
Gloria Goldberg in the Silver Twilight Lodge:
"Care to join the Order?" Carl Sanford and several of his henchmen ask. If you accept, pay $3 and take a Silver Twilight Membership. If you decline, pass a Will (-1) check or lose 3 Stamina as the henchmen assist you out the door. Whether you pass or not, move to the street.
Will you accept his offer, @Void Slayer?
"Ashcan" Pete in the Graveyard:
"Testifying" Cooter Falwell latches onto you and rambles on about his spiritual beliefs. Make a Lore (-1) check. If you pass, then somewhere in Cooter's words you find a clue to the Mythos threat. Gain 1 Clue token, but lose 1 Sanity. If you fail, move to the street while you listen to Cooter ramble on about pure nonsense @Greenbarons to understand the madman's words.

Lore is 1 so no dice, not spending any clude tokens. Moved to the street.
Ashcan entered the graveyard trying to find out what all the commotion was about. From behind a gravestone lurched old Cooter Falwell. Speaking nonsense about a King robed in yellow and how the play will end it all. Pete didn't have time to listen to an old man's rambling however and he made his way to the street. There had to be someone who made sense around here..
Jenny Barnes at the Train Station:

Stifling a yawn, Jenny stood to leave the station when movement caught the corner of her eye. Spinning around, she found herself face to face with a wild-eyed man of uncertain descent, an irreputable turban perilously crouched upon his head. "Best regards from Him Who is Not to be Named" he muttered between broken teeth and foul breath. Before she could even scream in alarm he reached into his cloak, revealing a curious yellow sign within, and sunk his knife into her stomach.
Collapsing backwards, darkness washed over Jenny as her last thoughts focused on what a waste of time the last hours of her life had been.
And then, unexpectedly, her eyes opened once more, looking up not at her assailant but at the concerned face of an elderly man of good bearing. "You're mighty lucky that urchin didn't get a good shot at you ma'am. Just a small nick, though you're no doubt shaken up. Might want to get it looked at by a prop'r doctor though; wouldn't want an infection to set in."
Overcome by the day's events, Jenny could only nod dumbly.
Holy hell, what a terrible encounter to catch after bumping lore to read the stupid King in Yellow. That play is cursed I tells ya!
Mandy Thompson in the Great Hall of Celeano Area 1:
A lurking monster appears! @Daemonis must fight or evade a Fire Vampire!
Mandy walked through the giantic library when she noticed glows of fire on the wall. Someone or something was coming after her. She decided to hide between bookshelfs. A cloud of tiny fires passed by. Mandy sat in her shelter until the vampire disappeared, then she continued her journey

This was not going to plan, Kate had come here to test her equipment, what she had thought was occult activity was actually just a gang of thugs. Kate snuck away before they spotted her, very dissappointed and made for Uptown. Well if she couldn't work tonight, then she could at least do some window shopping, that always makes a girl smile.

Staggering out of the Train Station, Jenny spots a strange store across the street labelled "Curiositie Shoppe". Maybe someone in there will want this blasted play; it's certainly brought me nothing but misery. Clasping the small wound in her side that continued to throb and ache, she shuffled over to see what she could do.
Move to the Shoppe, with the intent to buy something. Also any player who wants to come and take my copy of King in Yellow is quite welcome to it. A Lore -2 check is going to be tough to pull off, so maybe someone else can make better use.
Also, I just realized I totally forgot my Luck skill during that train stabbing! Drat, could have maybe convinced him to let me go after all!
No changes to sliders.
Mandy continued to explore the library. More than anything she wanted to stay here and read all the books, but she knew that if she stops she will never return home

On second thought, I think I have enough Will to take on those baddies.
No change to sliders. Move to Downtown and fight! I'll take on the Dark Young first. Horror check: Success! I lose 1 sanity due to nightmarish. Combat check, using both enchanted weapons: Success (just barely)! Not looking good for the Star Spawn fight.
Now to see if I end up in the hospital from fighting the Star Spawn. Horror check: Failure! I am almost completely insane. Combat check (using the enchanted weapons again): Success! That Star Spawn is very dead.
