Re: Call of Cthulu
I have no idea how to do the points and stuff...so just do that for me. Is there a list of occupations or do I just say one. Same with Hobbies. With the chart. Do the percentages mean cost or, percentage of your points it takes?

Percentile rolls are done with two d10s. One is used to calculate the first digit and the other is the second. You want to get your percentage or lower.Kalvinator wrote:I have no idea how to do the points and stuff...so just do that for me. Is there a list of occupations or do I just say one.

You can pretty much be anything for occupation, as long as it exists in the 20's. A good way to think of an occupation is to look at your stats.

OOC: Let's just say I grabbed the note book/ notebook and be done with the whole business.
I look at the papers on the desk to see whose house I'm in, without riffling through them, then call out to see if anyone's home. Then peer through door without crossing through it.

Re: Call of Cthulu
@Zupponn, it just so happens that creating your own character is the best way to win over a GM, and your character actually makes sense with the setting. In fact, I was hoping one of you guys would create a literal investigator. You're in. Also, you need four hobby skills.
Sorry I'm late guys, today was really busy and I was just in a mood yesterday.

(23)(3) Aboriginal 2 punches you even harder, aiming for your throat. You drop the hammer and stumble backwards. -3hp

"Hello?" You call out to see if anyone's home. All you hear afterwards is silence. You then peer through the other door and see a staircase.

You quickly go inside, and grab your "war hammer". It's a very well crafted weapon you made ornately designed with a carving of a lion on both faces. It's designed to be lightweight so that someone of your meager strength can lift and swing it without toppling over. You doubt you can create anything as good as it in your entire life. As you come back out, you see the car and the two aboriginal men. You see the woman restrained in the back seat.lawmaster wrote:Quickly grab a war hammer from inside and use it to attack the car.

"Excellent, because I could use more men like you. This job pays at $6.75 an hour, as long as you promise to never form a union with your coworkers.

You look at a few of the papers, but you don't see anything to do with the owner of the house. The papers look like reports.Scratch wrote:OOC: Let's just say I grabbed the note book/ notebook and be done with the whole business.

Re: Call of Cthulu
Wait, is $6.75 above minimum wage in Canada? Because the way he says implies it's slightly higher than normal. But I'm just checking because in the US, minimum wage is $7.25.
Assuming it is, I reply, "I'd say that I'd be happy to work for you under those terms, Mr. Lupanes. Thank you for making me part of the team." I salute him after saying this, for effect.

Re: Call of Cthulu
I don't know what the minimum wage was, but Ford paid it's factory workers $5 an hour in the 20's which was pretty good for menial labour.

Re: Call of Cthulu
Okay, edited my previous post with hobbies. I mainly just picked some random things. I'm not sure if they're real skills or not.

Re: Call of Cthulu
Open door and peer out at names on address boxes and street names, then quietly open drawers in desk to look for any useful supplies.
