Call of Cthulhu RP: Pre-RP Discussion 2 (Oh yeah, we need two of these things...)
 

Alright, the second Pre-RP discussion... I will re-post all the data I have made so far, and will post new data here, so if I say take a look, keep an eye on this post for updates.

Holy Water MCs? Is that even possible? Water doesn't exactly blow up...

I assume he means it would break open and spill the holy water on them and not explode. It would only be useful against vampires.

Eh, a good ol' fashioned rifle usually stops the monstas. Or not.

In this RP, usually not... In fact, the only thing all monsters are weak against is magic. Many many monsters are immune or highly resistant to bullets and melee weapons, or even basic fire and electrical damage...

Thats what I was thinking of exactly. Also, I may spend like three or four missions researching how to reproduce sunlight to use against them too.

THAT might be a bit much for the 1920's... And it won't be like they are a huge menace, but we will face them occasionnally...

Ugh, crap. Sucks. Guess I'll be reading those ancient cursed books then. And how much time is inbetween each mission? Also, how exactly do we do stuff inbetween missions? Like spend time in personal care or research stuff.

Its basically going to be an electric lamp modified a little. (I do believe those existed in a really clunky form) The vamp thing was an example, Ill be researching almost all the main monsters for weaknesses, thats the reason for the high library use. I will not be learning spells however becasue i have like no mp or sanity.

Sith, doesn't matter, just reading and learning about the Mythos will add Cthulhu Mythos points, lowering you low sanity even lower... If you research too much, you might be the first to permenantly snap...

J Man, it will be variable, but up to a week to a month will pass in between missions. You can PM me what you are doing in that time, things like your job (That occupations kill actually DOES mean something...), training (Increasing skills without the instant bonuses of skill points, will be slow...), or the more educated types can invent things, translate texts and read Mythos Books and learn spells. When missions are totally resolved, I will say its the end of the mission, give out any points or anything else accumulated, and say how long till the next mission. Then people can either post or PM me what they are doing each week while not on the mission (Time in between missions will run on a weekly, not daily, basis, so it could be WEEK 1: Train Handgun, WEEK 2: Read [Enter Occult Tome Here], WEEK 3: Learn [Insert Spell Name Here] that I saw while reading [Insert Last Occult Book Name Again]. (And yes, learnign spells will be different from reading Mythos books...))
