We had to move our investigation deeper into the desert. The thief who had stolen our artifact had planted, as it turns out, several other fakes in our dig site. We are now 90% certain that we know who did these things, but we do not know why. These fakes have contaminated the entire dig site, and a...

Yes, a golem. I can not rule out this hypothesis. I did not feel a presence of magic energy that I would have expected from such a device, but it could have been there and I just did not notice. I will let you know if any matching evidence of golemancy is to be found at the dig site. Hannah, you are...

Greetings to all my friends, Something very mysterious happened today in the desert, and my face was nearly blown off my head. It may be related to a new species of supernatural creature. I should begin by explaining where I am. Hello from beautiful Libya. My new job at the university allows me to t...

Wow, I have been catching up on my reading of this board. You people certainly know how to live the interesting life. I pleased you are all still on this world with me.

Fortunately, I never dream.

In Arabic, we do use the term "martyr," but it has a different definition than is found in English or any of the Latin-derived languages. It means "one who was called to Heaven." I did not meet this man, but if fought the good fight and performed good deeds, he is surely a martyr.

My friend, do not dwell on Professor Handler. I know some colleges at my new university who worked with her at the time and kept in touch with her afterward. She tried her experiment. It failed. It simply does not work. More to the point, I have been asked to take a trip to Libya soon. Perhaps my va...

My own homeland, Afghanistan, was neutral during World War II. It was ironically one of the quieter places to be while the rest of the world seemed to be burned. Before and afterward, well Afghanistan has never stayed quiet for long. A lot of particularly interesting stuff was happening around the t...

Ah, you have met him! Mister Davenport, do not stress about this Mister Green. As it so happens, I have just relocated to the Tampa era. I have finally acquired my new dream job, teaching at a university where the snow never falls. If this Mister Green is anything but an urban legend, I will let you...

I love this story. My mother used to tell me this when she put me to bed at night.

Now that I think about it, she may have been criminally insane.

I prefer Sufi Rock.

Chotor asty, Sparks!

Do you have any specific questions with which we might help you?

A few minutes after I left the car, I noticed that the crickets had stopped chirping. In fact, there was no natural night sounds being generated at all. They had all just stopped dead, leaving an eerie silence. Every sound I made was abrasively loud in my own ears, from my breathing to the sound of ...

Hello Mister Woodriff, Are you still around? I was reviewing some of the older threads on this board from before I join when I think I noticed something. Your sister is named Caprice, is she not? I think she may have posted here on this site back in 2008. I noticed primarily because I am a college i...

How is business, Doctor?

As Remy would say, we piled into Father John's car. Actually, there was not a pile of heroes. We each sat in a different seat. Driving with urgency, Father John makes trip of roughly 240 kilometers in 2 hours. Fortunately, we did not run into any speed traps on the way. Well into early evening, we c...

Ah, Irish beer, it is my ninth favorite beverage.

Where did you find this article?

There are some ghouls who prefer their meals to be fine aged, but that might be a personal preference. If this was the only disturbed grave in the cemetary, I doubt that a ghoul is the cause. A more common monster is the likely suspect, greed. The article did not mention what methods of mummifacatio...

Come to think of it, I don't even know if 'omagimaakos' is singular or plural.

My area of specialty is the Middle East, not North America. It isn't surprising that I have never heard of it either. There is no mention of omagimaakos in Encyclopedia Mythica nor Tobin's Spirit Guide. Perhaps someone should add a page to the Lazlo Wiki. Swamp apes of Florida are also associated wi...

A good question. It turns out that a rival college was in that location. I am getting ahead of myself... I arrived with a rapid and loud knocking at the door to announce my presence. "Father John the Wise, Remy the Quick, your third musketeer has arrived! I am Ali the Handsome. How may I use my...

On March twenty-sixth, Hollister mentioned what would happen if I were on their list. Does would I get on this list?

Fear not, I made it out alive. I am not without injury, but Team Portland emerged victoriously. It turns out that there are tunnels under that part of the city which branch out like tree roots. We never did completely search them, so be aware if you ever visit. I can not know for certain if other mo...

Would you like to know what life is like in Portland? It is like this.

I am the man of your dreams!

Please add me to this list as a Society Associate.

The British author Douglas Adams once observed that no known language has ever produced the phrase which translates to "pretty as a an airport." It is true that air travel in the United States as always been frustarting for me, but this week was worse. An attempted bombing in Times Square ...

I carry a small hatchet whenever I can. There was a time when I was younger that I worked as a firefighter. I became quite good with axes.

I like my Soviet Simonov SKS for emotional reasons. It's the only gun I've ever used, and I'd had it since I was boy. I trust it. I suppose Americans would call it a semi-automatic rifle, but to me it was always just my gun. In some countries, every boy was given a bicycle. Where I grew up, every bo...

Is there no choice for regular bullets?
