(OOC: And what's wrong with that?)

Armed with this new knowledge Frankie begins to put a few things together. 'Corbitt was buried in the basement by Thomas, a member of a cult dabbling in powers much like those that summoned the creature before, much like Corbitt himself. The gaunt figure was humanoid... ghost stories... a sorceror. It seems that either Thomas or Corbitt is still in that house. Most likely Corbitt.'

He replaced the files and left the room, thanking the clerk for his help with his project, and then waved down a cab to bring him to the church, where Ted and Marcus should be waiting.

(OOC: and now I get to wait while the others catch up to 9 pm)

ooc: I'm assuming either we find a crack house now, or a bank.

OOC: krylo, you'll probably actually arrive at the church at about 10:00 PM...

7:00 PM

Marcus and Ted arrive after dark at the burned out old church. You find yourself on the end of a dark street, with the ruins of the church in front of you. Since it is dark, it is hard to see, but luckily you both recieved flashlights and now bring them out. The walls were once of brick most likely, but over time they are now so overgrown with vegetation and worn with age, they almost look like natural stone again. As you walk towards where the old entrance used to be, the only cleared way into the church, you notice something on the wall. As you look closer, you see what it is ((See attachment)). The symbol has been freshly painted, and as you look at it you begin to develop a mild headache. However, you feel there may still be something of importance here, so you don't know whether to stop or continue.

EDIT: Oops, forgot the attachment...

ooc: Do I recognize the symbol by either a history, archaeology, or antropology check?

Ted looked about with his flashlight. He looked at the symbol and then crossed himself.

OOC: Nope, the symbol seems to have been made up just for this cult. You can think of no prior instance of seeing it.

OOC. Does my occult check help me here. And I think I have seen something like that symbol in a campaign before...

IC "Good thing I brought my med kit." Marcus pulls out some asprin pops 2 pills from it and offers some to Ted "Lets look around for just a little bit not to long. I got a bad feeling about this place.Lets leave in about maybe ten minutes..."

OOC: Still nothing. You both remain clueless to the symbol. And you may be mistaking it for another symbol that is similar to, but not the same as, this one. Only a Mythos check could reveal the other symbol this one looks like, and you both failed it just to let you know (You have a 5%, what do you expect...) And I assume you are now investigating...

You both walk through the door into the church. As you step under some hanging debris, you find yourself in a large, fairly empty space. You look at the old shattered columns around, the bowed and collapsed walls, and random bits of natural debris that have gotten in here.

ooc: What do I smell? Remember dead things Reek. If something evil is killing and eating people and such it would smell here.

Ted sniffed the night air. He was tempted to go for a drink. "No thanks. I have my own medicine if need be." He did not like the feel of this place. It felt 'evil' to him.

ooc. Give me an honorable death. I don't want to die by fallen debris (that happened to me once.)or a homless bum who is crazy. But I would preferably not want to die to soon.

IC"I bet there is a secret passage somewhere see if you can find anything like a lever or a book or something. Also look for some sort of book or someting that looks suspicious." Marcus tells Ted carefully looking around.

OOC: No smells, but the vegetation on the walls and the night air...
