SATURDAY, 10th January
WARNING: These are the session
summaries of my Masks of Nyarlathotep campaign adapted for Demon: the Fallen
but using much of the Mythos in a similar capacity. Thus if you are a player eager to play in
that campaign you really shouldn't read along due to the inevitable spoilers.
Lady Gwen and Lord Theodore
(Gipontel) manage to convince their parents that another trip to New York is in
order. Sincetheir previous trip and
visit to the Mogens Estate proved so lucrative, and since the twins are now
eighteen, it was agreed upon though their mother, Countess Pettinghew, was to come along with them as a
chaperone. Especially since the
exuberant Letty Harrinton, youngest daughter of Lord Harrington, would be
coming along.
They travelled on the Mauretania
shortly before New Years Eve and arrived to a very cold and snowy New
York. Lady Gwen and Miss Letty remained
as excitable as ever as they disembarked and went to the two taxis provided for
them by Ambrose Mogens. They are taken
to the Waldorf-Astoria where they meet with two guides provided to them by
Ambrose Mogens - one very sophisticated guide for the countess and a very
nervous Ingrid Kensington (Nithriel) who was feeling all the more
self-conscious in the dress she had been given for the occasion.
They have two days of tourism
which pass by very nicely.
MONDAY, 12th January
Nithriel returns to work and
finds Rupert Harper, feeling very smug about a particular telegram he'd been
sent by an author who worked for Prospero Press (owned by her parents). A certain Mr. Jackson Elias who wanted an
investigative team to help him with an expedition and who had seen fit to
telegram an acquaintance rather than his employers. Nithriel managed to convince him to hand over
the telegram, which he happily did because he didn't want to get messed up in
any additional work.
A corpse arrives for their
investigation who turns out to have died from drowning. Nithriel attempts to resurrect him but the
man just lies there, catatonic. It seems
that her powers have a certain time limit in freshness. Nithriel simply covers his face with a
sheet. Mr. Harper forces her to spend
the night in the morgue, in case he wakes up and starts doing anything
crazy. He then heads home early.
Nithriel has to sleep on the chair
not far from that creepy not-dead man.
After several hours, the fellow expires again. Thankfully.
