Submitted Luis Joaquin. Still working out a brief background. I hope I transposed all the numbers correctly!

Magic Points gave me pause. 10? 11?

Magic points should be 1/5th of Pow, so the 11 is a misprint I guess

So if I understood correctly, with those rolls I improve First Aid and Occult. By how much?

Excellent! Roll 1d10 for First aid and GReek and add to those skills.

Done. And those Sanity Points are added to the maximum?

No, just your current. Your max sanity will always be 99-Cthulhu Mythos score

You will also have a chance to recover sanity in between adventures but we'll talk about that...

For a little help with background, there's a randomised set of elements you can roll for:
Ideology/Beliefs 1d10
Significant People 1d10
Meaningful location 1d10
Treasured Possession 1d10
Traits 1d10

Temp insanity has now passed and wound has healed.

For background elements: Can we also choose from a list or do those have to be random?

Roll and I will make suggestions. You can take or leave them as you wish. The important thing is you have a key element that will help you recover sanity.

What is that Gif from?

Not sure where the GIF is from. Doesn't look like Hannibal (which is where Karabekian's avatar is from, I think).

Karabekian will have been having nightly nightmares about being chased by the Thing. He'll want to have a way to defend himself and briefly considers acquiring a firearm, but the mere thought leaves him with distaste.

A belief in fate (e.g. karma, the class system, superstitious)

A childhood friend (e.g. classmate, neighbor, imaginary friend). - This could have been Gardiner?

The place you were happiest in your life (e.g. the park bench where you first kissed, your university).

Ladies’ man/seductress (e.g. suave, charming voice, enchanting eyes).

Another 1d10 for possession and 1d10 for why the person is significant
