I should probably warn you folks ahead of time-When Per Negaton and I finally got our Game on it was pretty much a 12-hour marathon.
And yeah my Notes should be shorter-but in Per Negaton's case the dialogue is pretty much the whole point! He spends hours after work on several of the world's remaining MUD's, just chatting. Things should speed up (oops pun not intended, sorry!) once we get to the Action-y bits...but the Prelude? No Dice Were Harmed In the Making, ha ha ha....

>End Prelude I'm so confused. Was this all discussion before the session even started? Or was this a session 0 that served as a prelude? OOPS, I think we posted at the same time-but yes, we had a massive Session and roughly the first hour-and-a-half was just Eric interacting with the environment, playing up his 'before' stats (CON 6[1, 3, 2] and 2 HP[1,2] without the House Rules) and lots of dialogue...

First-I hate Thunderstorms when I am Posting.
Three-I have noticed Death popping up for cameos in my games more than Alfred Hitchcock and Stan Lee put together. Well, I blame Scott for this-he got me hooked on Yarko the Great, Yarko knows Death, Death has this really awesome wardrobe...BEHOLD!
More to come once I cool off my typing fingers!

-In which a pleasant Role-playing Adventure segues away into a journey of introspective self-discovery, PTSD and Survivor's Guilt barely covering a lifetime of resentment... It had completely slipped my mind until mid-play that Per Negaton's Mom had been a genuine Real Life Superhero herself-an early EMT who had served with distinction until they had dragged her out of the Ambulance at 62-with two cracked disks from a lifetime of gently lifting men two and three times her size onto a stretcher. She trained EMT's for another seven years after that until her first 'really annoying' set of collapsed arches, then a few blood clots in the legs, "nothing too serious" in her opinion... So I created Valerie Moss, and to blazes with historical accuracy. I guess I got the attitude right, because Per shuddered like i'd walked over his Mom's grave...and that's a mean feat when the lady in question is still very much alive and sending helpful Updates to WebMD in her spare time! At any rate I am terribly sorry for the lack of Updates-no Internet for a few days. I'll try to finish up soon.

1) Per Negaton thinks he is a Thespian (ACTING!!!) and kept trying to turn our session into a Fellini film.
2) His PC is a Medical Doctor-lots of Good Deeds so far, not much by way of fisticuffs. And he hasn't noticed Death long enough to slap him around or steal his awesome hat.
3) Per Negaton likes battles of wits and panache, and thinks that Bugs Bunny, Loki, Coyote and Slippery Sam should all be in the JSA. 4) Hoodlums eventually make an appearance, but...let's just say it got Funky, so Funky, Good Grodd Ya'll...
(Radio Announcer Voice)
Coming Soon...CRESCENDO.

I am glad to hear the good deed mechanic is seeing lots of use finally. I had long ago thought that players starting at 1st level should game the 'good deed system' until they hit 2nd level and then go heroing, but this is the closest I've ever come to seeing it happen.

Scott, you almost made a decent RPG about gaudily-dressed adventurers with astonishing abilities who would gleefully toss each other through walls while helpless pedestrians ran in terror...
Instead, you added in the Good Deed mechanic, and created a game about Heroes. Thank you.

I wish that I could just compress 12 hours of roleplaying into a simpler format: "Doctor with weak heart is sad. Doctor takes vacation and Bad things happen.Doctor feels stronger but is sad. Doctor visits family and smiles but then must leave and it sad. Doctor gets bad news and is very sad. Doctor fixes race with Magic Horse and loses G*******d mind and goes 'Wooooooo!' into the distance..."
One short chapter left.

"Steampunk Superpulp
"For Order99 to share his campaign notes and possibly run something in the future!"
It occurred to me that the last part there might finally need to be updated.

May I suggest- "A 'Once in a Blue Moon' campaign, meeting whenever we can, with multiple Editors and a shared world of 1886 Scientific Romance"...

Part I of Mister Tricks' Origin is up. A lovely time was had by all, right up until the Editor (me) had a mild anxiety attack for no G****n reason...
