Re: Case File 452: Elkhorn, Wisconsin

Well, after considering my findings and realizing how much time I've spent out here, I'm calling this one a bust, though maybe not the overt reasons. I've found everything but the beast, and I think I know why. During my time here, I've noticed the veil in the area is really thin. Now, I imagine an...

Re: Because I'm New 'Round Here

Exactly. Sun Tzu has a lot to say about fighting, and more over, when not to fight. His writings have helped forge the greatest generals, leaders, and warriors for millenia now. Ignore his advice at your own peril. If you say "Hello" and someone greets you back, you know already that they...

Re: Because I'm New 'Round Here

In my experience, usually they only talk to you if they think they have you at their mercy and want to prolong the moment or they think they are at your mercy and want to stall for time. So glad you mentioned that, Caliburn! These creatures tend to underestimate people. Talking is a great way to st...

Re: Case File 452: Elkhorn, Wisconsin

I havn't found anything of interest so far on this one other than shards of pottery and probably bits of rope. Remember, I'm not here to do an excavation. The shards I've been finding aren't even very big or well marked-they're more like the sorts of shards that routinely get mistaken for rocks. Th...

Re: Because I'm New 'Round Here

Sorta' depends on the situation... obviously, at the point you've been ambushed, it's a little late for diplomacy. But I'd say for every time I get ambushed or rushed, there's a time where there we lock gazes with each other, and that's when I usually just try a line. "We don't have to kill ea...

I prefer not to mess with artifacts like this, particularly because of NAGPRA.

No... no good deed goes unpunished is something the world saw fit to teach me a w...

Interesting night last night. Nothing to show for it other than a few scrapes, but interesting all the same. One of the big things I'd wanted to look into was that I'd heard someone had witnessed the beast digging up the burial mounds, so whether I liked it or not, I was going to have to deal with ...

Interviewed a bunch of townsfolk and learned about several burial mounds. I'll be checking them out as time allows.

Re: Seriously Paranormal Investigations

The obscene truth is that there's so much surveillance these days that I can count on just about anything I do being logged in some way, shape, or form. As for glasses cams, it's a little impractical considering that I had my glasses enchanted with aural sight. I see auras naturally, but it's by no...

Case File 452: Elkhorn, Wisconsin

So, feeling my welcome a bit frayed in Colorado, I've decided to head on back to New York to say hi to my friends and contacts, and I figured while I was on the way there, I'd stop by Elkhorn, Wisconsin. There have been many werewolf sightings there over the years, though not so much since Y2K. I h...

Re: Didn’t Lazlo a associates suggest something differen

Didn’t Dr. Lazlo—or maybe one his associates—give evidence to the contrary, though? He suggested that many of the creatures we hunt are “unwhole”—they’re not capable of good acts or positive emotions any more than we are able to swallow the moon. That wasn’t a quote obviously—but I have a vague mem...

Re: Seriously Paranormal Investigations

I might be relocating out your way. Local law enforcement does seem to be interested in the fact that the charges were dropped.

I really hate it when cops get turned into zombies, vampires, or other monsters that insist on being put down. REALLY makes a mess of things.

And that's exactly the response I would expect from a paramilitary, brain washed child. The equation is generally as simple as applying a point of focused pressure to influence someone else.

No, the Thompson isn't that unique, or at least, I don't believe it is. Can't prove it either way. But I do have something that is a LOT more unique. I DO own an authentic Mateba Autorevolver.

It's an M1928A1, it does not have the front grip, and it uses the extended 30 round box (mine are authentic live fire replicas, the OE parts were missing when I bought it), although that's about the most I can tell you about it. The gun turned up as a backroom bargain because its history is untrace...

Re: I'm Supposed to Introduce Myself

Don't worry about the information, Cynthia.

Information might hold power, but it only holds as much power as you're willing to cede to someone holding the information. We aren't demons and devils held by contracts from time immemorial-we have free will.

I think it's less that we smell tasty and more that casting creates resonance for those creatures to home in on, but that's really more of an application of wave form frequency to magical effects.
