Anemia sucks. I feel like there's an invisible vampire sucking my energy through a straw.

Forum: Casual Interest Checks
I saw the interest check so I'll bite and make a character.
At least I will when I know who else is around so I can try to avoid making a relationship with an NPC.
Excellent! Welcome! :D
I've poked the interest check for potential new players. In the meantime who is here?

Forum: Casual Interest Checks
Looking for new players -- the RP is jump-in, so just post a CS and go!
The scene right now: the tavern is in shambles and is threatening to collapse. The other PCs just finished killing a few zombies, and the barkeep has turned into a zombie, himself. Good times.

Very awesome thinking, especially without being in it! (you COULD be in it, if you wanted) ;)
I kind of knew this one would fail -- I know for the future to actually tell the players what is happening so it's not a huge jumble of incomprehensible chaos. I promise to be clear in STONES, at least.
Lantern's whole premise is to be an incomprehensible chaos, though, and for some reason that's working in that one rare instance, and I have no idea why.

@t2wave Yeah I hear ya -- thanks for sticking it out though! :) I did attempt advertising this for new players at least twice, and I guess we could've accepted the wolf, but .... yeah. XD
@drewccapp, sorry but I think honestly this RP is a goner. Might try a reboot in the far future -- but both of you are in at least one of my other RPs so I can't say I feel extremely bad about letting this one down.
So, I guess I'll let you guys know what's ACTUALLY going on on this doomed ship, which is basically impossible to figure out given what's been going on, which is totally my fault but here we go:
The ship was originally a pirate galleon that was minding its own business when it was sucked down into this weird ocean where the stars are screwed up. Through their adventures in trying to get back home, they managed to unleash a terror upon this weird new world, which terror is actually the Shadow Thing that certain characters could see standing creepily in the corner.
Shadow Thing is the puppet master: it can control corpses, or create zombie workers if you will. The monster in the engine room is just a dead beastie that the shadow thing is controlling. When the other PCs died in the engine room and were locked in, their corpses became puppets of the Shadow Thing and began stoking the fires and making the engines run.
Shadow Thing summoned all you people on the ship so it could use you to fire up the ship and fly (yes, fly, the engines are airship engines) off to a super secret location, since Shadow Thing is just a shadow and can't touch things by itself. It has summoned people before you, and it will continue summoning people after your corpses are rotted and no longer usable, until it gets what it wants.
The fox and the plantlife are feebly trying to keep you alive long enough to make it to land and possibly destroy the ship. The plants have been trying to jam the gears and pull the ship apart as much as possible, but then have to stop to save the people just summoned, so it's a no-win situation.
@drewccapp I amuse myself by thinking of this as a prequel to Lantern, which takes place a century before Lantern: the story of the original Pirates, how they ended up in this world, the origin of the Kith and why it's always night. ;)

Wrote a little in the ladies' room (it sounds like we're discussing secret meetings in the bathrooms) -- anyone who has anything to add feel free to do so whether or not anyone else is around. :)
Boys, no sneaking upstairs. ;)

@t2wave Oh dear! Good luck, and take it easy! :) We'll be here!
Pinging @t2wave! Still up for this one? ;)
Just a poke, guys! Need more to react to? ;)
