Mobves' Paper Chase OOC

[zingbobco000]

Greetings Mobves, and welcome back to the world of Call of Cthulhu, a world of horror, mystery, and wonder. Here you shall take on the role of an intrepid Investigator of the Unknown (or Investigator for short), while I shall be the Keeper of Arcane Lore (or the Keeper).

Now that you've understood the basic rules and thematic aspects of the game, having played the introductory adventure. Prepare to journey onto your first freeform scenario -- Paper Chase! This is a mystery set in 1921 where you are the main character. For the purposes of guiding you, I may very rarely make small notes at the bottom of my posts, but these will be far rarer than before, so I hope you're prepared to think for yourself!

Anyway, without further ado, tuck yourself in, grab a bowl of popcorn, and join the In-Character!

excellent !!!! i'm rearing to go (:

i'm guessing this detail in your first post was copied from elsewhere ?

...your heels are long gone at this point, and they were new as well. You wanted to give a good first impression to the faculty at Miskatonic...

[zingbobco000]

Indeed. I had thought I had caught everything... but apparently not . My apologies.

[Mobves]

So... just to be clear, if I want to "psychologize" someone in the future, should I make the roll in my post?

For example,

I pause for a moment, paying careful attention to the man's reaction to this news.

[ROLL GOES HERE]

& then I check my character sheet... & if I succeed, I'm allowed to open the spoiler in your response?

[zingbobco000]

Only if I specifically ask for a roll. Please do not make rolls that are not requested of you.

[Mobves]

Okay. So in this case I should make the psychology roll in my next post?

[zingbobco000]

Yes, alternatively you make the roll and edit the post. Or you make the roll and make a second post afterward.

Gotcha !!!! thanks !

[Mobves]
