OOC

Lunitar wants to use Luck or maybe a Push because Larry very nearly succeeded in kickibg it down. If that still doesn't get the door open, Karabekian is goibg to calmly try and turn the knob.

FYI new player.character joining the fun imminently

Hello everyone, I will be playing as Captain James Harper an ex army medic and Doctor of Medicine. He is very knowledgable about science and medicine. I thought that he might be friends with one of your characters and that you might have called him for his medical expertise. Does that sound good to anyone?

Well given what's just happened to Luis that's a great hook for getting you into the game. If you want you can know Marc and he can call you in...

Welcome, Arina! Doctor Harper will be a great addition to the team! Following Knifesedgegames' suggestion I've played it so Karabekian and Harper are old friends.

Perfect. See you in game 'old boy'.

I see you preempted me. Indeed, the Captain knows Karabekian so I'll let you guys hash out the details.

I would just throw in that theCaptain now lives near central Boston.

And incidentally, if anyone wants more Cthulhu action, Arina is looking to run a game too http://gamersplane.com/forums/thread/5392/

Oops! I simply worked from your secret note. Didn't mean to overstep.

No, not at all. I'm happy everyone is taking the initiative!

Thanks for the plug. Yeah I am looking for one more player before we set off.

Hi everyone! Sorry for the extended absence. That was my first vacation in years! I'm back now, and looking forward to slowly getting caught up with all my games. Cheers!

Awesome!!

Regarding language skills

I have found a rule regarding this I'd not seen before. If your Own language skill is 50% you have a 10% bonus in other languages from the same group (EG for English - German and Dutch)

If you have higher than 90% you get an additional 10% in those languages. Please amend your sheets accordingly

I'm assuming Greek isn't in the same group as English. :-D

Afraid not!
