The Hopping Vampire
Call of Cthulhu | One-Shot
About the adventure
To see the world is a wonderful thing, but experiencing it could be deadly. You will be enjoying a tour of some of China’s great temples and busy streets. At the city Zhoushan, you will be taking a tour guide through it all and explore some of its most beautiful places. You would even be seeing an authentic Taoist temple. Burdened with history, heritage, and spirits full of hatred towards the living, but those are merely legends. This one shot takes place in China in the year 1927, May 24. You can be any kind of tourist character. On discord, I will screen share a Tale Spire (VTT) board to show and play on.

Had some super cool visual aids that helped flesh out the game!

Ed ran an excellent edge of your seat one shot. He's great with teaching the rules especially for someone who's still new to Call of Cthulhu like me. Highly recommend!

This was my first tt version of CoC, but this was a phenomenal game and the storytelling was A-1. I really enjoyed how in character the other players were as well as the curveballs thrown in game. All in all I had a blast and would highly recommend anyone to his games.
Heidi
Ed the Editor ran a great game, and is super knowledgeable with the rules and settings of Call of Cthulhu. Looking forward to playing more games with them in the future!
Pauline
A great GM, more than willing to take suggestions from players. Even 1 on 1 he's a pretty great storyteller. (I know that situation is always the toughest!)

How to prepare
-A mic would be easiest but I'm ok with typing on Discord. - A way to see on discord so may need descent internet. -Have a way of keeping track of your points because you will lose some SAN, LUCK, or HP - A base line of what type of character you want but maybe not a full flesh character yet
What I provide
I will also use the screen sharing to show you a map of the area and some hand outs to give. I’m more flexible with the rules and more for a fun experience. I'm very creative and if a better option is available, may change or a way that may support you more.

How will character creation work
There are multiple ways of creating a character, I just prefer the point system better but you may use any method you like. We can discuss how your character fit in with the story at the beginning of the session. You are Given 460 points to be put in any of the eight traits, with a max of 90 point on a trait. Something you may want to know before putting your traits together - Hit pints (HP) are adding your SIZ and CON together and divided by 10 ex 60 SIZ + 40 CON is 10 HP - Sanity Points (SAN) is the value of your POW Luck is 3d6 * 5 For Skill point you will have 320 point that are involved in your job/person (ex is a cop or chef) and 150 of personal interest. (Ex likes cooking or hunting) If you want help creating your character you could wait so I or other people may help you.
