Boat Trolls planning thread! (full of spoilers, non-players enter at your own risk)

well, it turns out helen is a disworldian-style witch. i guess that figures.

 

a bit of rummaging turns up michelle hurst who looks pretty cool in a big brown leather (or is it canvas?) jacket. helen would have shorter hair and no makeup—not so much aggressive as all business, and kind of an iron dyke air. not the agency's only witch but probably the one with the best english.

 

lol i probably put too much thought into this. it would be cool if bel found a few ghosts! i think, anyway. other than that probably just usual 'interesting old ruin' detritus, you know? grafitti, camping stuff, lost clothes, the requisite filthy mattress, condoms, old cigarettes, a shoe. like that. i think the prepared habitable part's going to be in a basement room.

 

i was like 'is this too much stuff to list?' but then i was like, you know what, i enjoy the idea of a little foldspace bunker being tucked away in some desolate old ghost barn in north dakota. you never know when the dungeon dimensions might fucking try and eat north dakota and you need somewhere to hide, i guess?

 

aww that sounds awesome.

so ok with the ghost, i figure that since smoking tends to be both a common addiction and a pretty significant one, it'd be good for attracting ghosts. it's something a lot of them would remember as important from life. plus there's crossover with burnt offerings, and in traditions of giving gifts to the dead, cigarettes are actually pretty common.

 

im interested in what pancho and bel will think of the whole bigger-and-creepier-on-the-inside thing!

 

bel: so i saw a ghost and it was scary
pancho: ghosts aren't scary because they're not real
bel: OKAY SO

 

pancho and bel can go exploring if they want? there's plenty of big fields for a fresh, sane, regular-world run, but i think this might be the first real big, inarguable, 'so hey, you live in weird america now' event that bel's had, and of course this morning pancho was completely normal.

eta: hmm. i definitely forgot that erskin was going to be pretty limited for a day or two. maybe helen can come exploring with them, if you don't want to write it all yourself.

Yeah it seems like after a very long day they might all just wanna hang out somewhere cozy and not get too adventurous. Maybe they can explore the next morning.

 

MAN I LOVE WORKING OUT THE MECHANICS OF INTER-DIMENSIONAL MAGIC FUCKERY.
