As for the role...I've never read the story, so I'm not sure what all we're choosing from, but would a seamstress fit?

I'm in though deadline might be a bit awkward. I'm very addicted to this game.

I'm trying to get a sparknotes from Fea as we speak about Lovecraft as I don't know him... so far she has given me "Lovecraft is Poe minus the alliteration" and now "creepy stories about small towns and dodgy houses where people do kinda creepy things... badly timed weather" she would however like this disclaimer "Fea has only actually read two Lovecraft stories that she can remember, and so is making a generalization, but the generalization was supported by a Lovecraft enthusiast."

So I'd like to be the badly timed weather please... Erm... I mean... I would like to be the innocent looking child with a disconcerting ability to predict the badly timed weather.

That's about right. Now you just need to pepper your conversation with the following:

"Yog-Sothoth blah, blah, blah... Miskatonic University blah, blah... shoggoths blah, blah, blah... ghastly shapes hinting at nameless horrors behind the protective veil of mortal vision, blah... Nyarlathotep the Crawling Chaos blah, blah, blah... The Great Old Ones blah, blah, blah... unspeakable soul-blasting monstrosities from the abyss blah, blah, blah, blah, blah... Necronomican blah, blah, blah... R'lyeh blah, Cthulhu blah blah, blah..."

There.

I just read the wiki on it and got the basic idea. As for Werewolf: the Apocalypse, read here.

Just read the first page of the story from the link Hakon provided, and it sounds really neat, right up my ally.

And SPM is playing....and school is fairly slow over the next few weeks....soooo

I'm gonna say that I should definitely be able to play, need more time to figure out some sort of occupation though.
