Everything looking great so far. Feel free to flesh out personality as you like.

Everyone should set Max Sanity to 99. This goes down as you earn Cthulhu Mythos points (a skill that starts at zero and you gain through reading tomes and losing sanity

Note you can also add an avatar to your character. Often CoC players grab old 1920's actor photos or use Midjourney, but feel free to use what you like.

@Knifesedgegames I am a little confused about skills! Do we add the occupation based skills that are on the sheets you provided to the base skills or do the new numbers replace the old ones?
Apr 3, 2024 2:26 pm
In this case, replace them. If we weren't using pregens, you would have points to assign that you add to the default but here your skills are already set. If you don't have anything in a given skill, you will have the default number (often referred to as 'base')

I am going to try and put together a sheet tonight. I tinkered around yesterday, but I didn't have the emotional bandwidth for BBCoding at the time. I'll see what I can do tonight!
Apr 3, 2024 10:26 pm
No worries! and you can use the standard sheet if you don't want to use the BBCode! No pressure!

I have some information for each of you of what you know about the other tenants, but I will wait til everyone has named their characters before I post that.

Hello everyone. I'm Eric (he/him) and I'll be playing George W. Bugbee, CPA ‐ business associate. I have only played the Call of Cthulhu 'Alone Against' solitaire scenarios. I've never been able to get a group together to play a proper game, so I'm really looking forward to this! I'm in EST.
Apr 5, 2024 1:57 pm
We're happy to have you!

Sorry for the confusion, you don’t all have a son called Tommy Grant, that is the landlady’s son!
Apr 5, 2024 10:03 pm
That's OUR son now. :P

I'm sure a lot of the residents treat him as the 'village child' and know him well.
Apr 5, 2024 10:12 pm
OK, I'm pretty much ready from my side. I've posted what you all know about the others, we'll have you describe each other in the main post shortly.

Is everyone ready?

Do you have any final questions?
Apr 5, 2024 10:43 pm
I'm ready

Ready!

Awesome! When you post in character, you can actually post with your character avatar. There is a ‘Post as’ drop down above the post, change it to your character.
If you forget (I do all the time) you can edit your post and change the ‘post as.’

I took the liberty of fiddling with some of the sheets to get your avatars working and edited posts to show who is who.
