Hey, everyone! This is the ideal place for any discussion, on topic or off, that isn't taking place within the game world.

Hi! I'm Abigail, the home-schooled, Christian girl.

Hello, I'm Lauren, ballet dancer.

Hey everyone, we're moving along! We have three players; unless someone applies with a really fun character in the next day or so, I'd say we're good to go. I failed to mention character generation: any of the standard approaches is fine! I rather enjoy rolling dice, but the other two are good.
Don't forget that your characters are younger than typical for CoC. Deduct 5 from STR or SIZE and also EDU; though you can roll twice for Luck and keep the higher value.

Let me know if you need a format for the character sheet. Once they're done, we can start!

In case you don't have a character sheet that suits RPoL, the one below's great. Also, if you're using point-buy or Quickfire instead of rolling for stats, add a bonus of 10 to your luck! It doesn't get reflected otherwise. (Ageism, sheesh!)

Overall, this isn't a hugely stat-heavy game, but even when we're not rolling, your character's abilities as listed here are going to influence events. So, they do matter!

Oh, and about backups: This is a conventional Call of Cthulhu adventure in that it's possible to receive an unhappy ending. Overall, though, mortality is much less likely than most games, so you don't need to worry about pre-generating backup characters.
