I remember watching Goonies once when I was still really young and it really scared me for some reason. I've been too traumatized to revisit it since 😄

I'll need a few days to set up a new story - meanwhile, feel free to choose your Advance here. Logan, Alana and Cody get their third advance, the last of the Novice rank.

When they'll get to Seasoned, new Edges will unlock. For now it's still only Edges from the Novice rank. Remember that the option to increase one attribute can be chosen once per rank only - Logan and Cody have already chosen that for Novice.

I still really want to go for the Kid's Best Friend edge.
I don't know why my parents would get me a dog right after I lost my skateboard and ruined all my clothes and also somehow managed to burn my hand, but I really like the idea of Al being inspired by how amazingly the dogs warded of Chet and wanting a dog of her own because of that. She somehow manages to convince her parents to get her a dog (of course they make her promise to take care of it and of course they know they can't rely on her to do it) but instead of the fearsome rottweiler she was expecting, she gets a corgi

We could contrive that it isn't her parents who give her a dog - they are too mad at her for dropping the summer job at the library and for the skateboard - but a relative, like an Auntie that spoils her since she was little?

She totally meant to go back to it. She just... forgot
Mar 23, 2022 10:03 pm
yes, that's what I meant, maybe she still can go back - cool, let's do that, find me a photo of the doggy and give it a name, pls

Meet Jack the Ripper (or Ripper for short).
And yes, Al did choose the name before ever meeting her. And before finding out she's a female dog.

Dogs are the best! If I were to be greeted by anything, I'd probably choose it to be a dog.
Usually when I join a game already in progress, I try to read through all the posts to get a feel for the game. In this case, I'll just stick to reviewing the OOC thread. Otherwise, you'd be looking for another player to replace me before I could get through them all!!
Having looked through the archetypes, I think Daydreamer: Survivor looks like a good and intriguing option. New to town but not the New Kid archetype, I'll leave that for Al.

Brief summary:
In the first adventure, we discovered that Logan's sister's ex was now dating a mail order robot bride. We confronted the robot, she tried to murder everyone, we defeated her.
In the second adventure, we were haunted by an evil ghost-mom because some kid's mom thought we were bullying her son and she accidentally summoned the ghost. We arranged for her son to go missing and then brought him back so that she would think we're heroes and the ghost would leave us alone.
In the third adventure, we were running away from bullies and ended up in a house where we were shrunk down to the size of a battery and had to overcome some difficulties, including fighting wasps and a spider, in order to find the machine that shrank us and return back to our normal size.

That about sums up the impression of the story so far I've gleaned from the OOC thread. Fun times 🤣
To answer an earlier question posed by Dr_B, if I had to choose an 80's movie it'd probably be 'Mazes & Monsters' (info link below). Its a terrible, corny movie mired in the 80's Satanic Panic zeitgeist. So bad it's good; plus, it's one of the first starring roles for Tom Hanks.

ha! I remember that film well :D
Thanks for the summary, bowl - I'll have some time tonight (UK time) to send witchdoctor some material on the archetype, and get the ball rolling for character creation
