UtLS4E27: Incomplete Thoughts

On this episode of Under the Library, a Call of Cthulhu Podcast:

As Buddy explores one of the significant locations Lancelot mentioned, Johnny checks on Jimmy and then rejoins the group to share that Colette decided to stay in town. Sam speaks to Earl the bartender, who warns them again about the Beast of Bloodstone.

The three gather supplies and get horses from Jaker, who’s name is actually Steve, before heading out to search for Cheryl. Steve/Jaker gives them vague directions to the campsite west of town.

Soon after leaving town Sam picks up a stray goat that he ties to his saddle. Buddy sees vultures circling in the sky to the north, as Sam sees smoke and flame to the west. They approach the campsite and find only one person sitting at the fire.

Under the Library, an actual-play Call of Cthulhu podcast, where cosmic horror is steeped in mystery and slathered with self-deprecating humor. Our main storyline, a sandbox created by our Keeper (Michael), is set in (a fictitious) 1942 New Mexico and follows the misadventures of Collette (Emily), Eddy (Scott), Sam (Rick), Lancelot (Wayne), and Buddy (Arthur). We focus on narrative, improv, and character building. We may stick our heads in front of a train because that’s what our character would do, and when we look under the bed even the Keeper may not know what we’ll find. We’re crafting a story, creating flawed characters, suspenseful events, and fulfilling revelations. Call of Cthulhu is a horror TTRPG; characters die horribly graphic deaths. It’s for mature audiences, but played by immature people. Find us at https://underthelibrary.com.
