Lured by the scent of blood and bitable necks you trap him in an alley & apply a liberal amount of stakes while he's confused by the peas. Despite his nerdly ways he's actually strong as gently caress and you have to use all the ghost potions to survive. You're able to pin him down by ramming the dragula over him into a nearby brick wall and then doing the deed. As he transforms into dust and gets washed away by the rain you hear him spookily call out "delete my browser history~!" Instead you get the gently caress out before the regular cops investigate the crash. The dragula makes it but it's also pretty well busted. -- The curse weakens. post day/night 23

Mr Mi-Go After all that Mi-Go has somehow misplaced their magnifying glass! While it says it can get by without it, the entity holds onto the book for now without perusing the tome further. Since the Dragula is broken and the boys probably don't want the old fart's help with it, especially after they see the job that's been done with the hood ornament (although perhaps that arrangement would work in Mr Mi-Go's favour at least!), they take an apple and go for a wander. "Now where did I leave my trusty old walking stick?" they ponder, attempting to find it now that they've remembered its existence and have need of it given their recent couple of injuries. To the senses of something that dwells in places where you don't need eyes to see, they might notice the old 'man' seems to attempt to locate a soft spot in this part of the time/space/probability continuum to attempt to reach through and draw from it an ancient and terrifying artifact of Chaos that is bonded with them - the exact purpose and abilities of it hard to quantify at the best of times - drawing on the strength necessary to do so now that the entity has fed well on the numerous conflicts and accidents it has caused. Whether it's to aid in this purpose or out of absent minded hunger, Mi-Go snaffles an apple to munch on as they go for their walk. Where exactly they head and if anyone follows them is another matter, they leave that to what mortals might perceive as chance or fate. Day 23 Attempt to retrieve the trusty walking stick from... Elsewhere. Wander at random and munch on one of them apples while doing so. Night 23 If the group has healed of their injuries by now, the Devourer of Fate will suggest that the group attempts and other excursion deeper into the castle to try to weaken the curse, acquire valuable items and find a way to Dracula since time is running short. They likely phrase this as simply a desire to explore the castle and if anyone has a better plan they'll instead join in on it.

Name: Mistress Carmallia Edensbane Theme: Wolfmother - Woman  Skill Class: Hedge Priestess https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1LjIzhFQ3M A bit of dark ichor trickled down Carmallia's cheek as she watch the pathetically nerdy son of dracula writhe in mortal agony on the pavement in the alleyway behind the tavern. "Delete my browser history~!" the undead manchild screeched in his final moments of unlife. Gross. "How did he find us," Carmallia wondered aloud, "and what degree of modern technology could he handle..?" Carmallia wanted to spit as she riffled through the ash-ifying hipster's pockets, looking for Dorkula's cell phone. "Somebody else handle this, please - I simply don't have the strength of will to look through this thing's saved photos..." Vicious vampire or no, Carmallia knew that this back-alley beat-down she'd been key in orchestrating was not going to sit well with her conscience today. "Think I'm gonna do some pot - er, do something about the magic plant pot... You get it." she informed the others. She was exhausted. Carmallia, Day 23: > Old House: Plant Roots into the Magic Flowerpot with soil and meditate with it nearby.

Bignatz is awestruck at how much effort it took to put down Dorkula. The death of his failson surely won't sit well with The Count, but for the moment he can sense the curse ease a little. Day 23: Go through Dorkula's browser history with a careful eye for anything that may pertain to The Count or Visconti. Night 23: Teleport into the conservatory with the other hunters and explore further into the castle.

Van and Dan "Enjoy your artisanal.. PULPING!" Dan yells as they mash that hipster fucker into a paste. Van makes a bit of a face and gives a creaky hand.. definitely not the best one liner he's seen. Day 23 Hard work to repair Dragula, with Dan getting a bit unsettled by the almost ghostly sounding whispers Van murmurs into the carburetor. Night 23 Tendrils of chaotic inevitability pull them to agree with, and even promote, Mi-Go's desire to lovably bumble around a evil castle full of curses and lies and monsters, and also curses.

Lester from R&D "Count Dorkula is dead?" Lester sighs. "Not the first RA I've lost but sad none the less". The other hunters remind Lester that Count Dorkula was a deranged vampire and most definitely was not one of his research assistants. Lester looks confused. "But I just hired him a couple of days ago; he had a 4.0 GPA and interned at Northrop Grumman!" Everyone looks around confused. Day 23 Lester will make another batch of ethereal potions from the alchemical ashes and hand out to the hunters. Night 23 Lester and Hawk will join the monster hunting crew, adventuring deeper into the castle.

Man, those monsters in the hall are pretty good at kicking rear end considering you'd think their legs would fly out of most of their sockets when they try. Luckily Mi-Go's certainly intentional and artful weaving between the assailants left them all tied up with each other and ready to throw under The Dragula's wheels. Better take it easy this morning though, Chef, you're still a tad sore. Day 23: Take things easy at the safehouse and stew *one* of the mystery roots. Consult your Survivalist's Cookbook and Lester's research materials to discern if it is more useful coating a friend or an enemy before pouring it into a globular potato-sized vial. Night 23: Plumb the depths of 𝕯𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖚𝖑𝖆's castle with the others. Speaking of plumb, if you come across 𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕮𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖙's Haunted Privy be sure to take the time to toss some cherry bombs down his toilets.

Name: Mistress Carmallia Edensbane Theme: Wolfmother - Woman Skill Class: Hedge Priestess https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-iHaEf7djg This wasn't working, clearly. Carmallia had stolen out into the night to visit the baseball diamond at the local university, where the late Treena Hendricks had spent so much time at in softball practice. The hedge priestess had been trying to enter into a trance state so she could reach out to Treena's old friends and physical belongings, using a little aerobic calisthenics in a ritual that essentially looked like an interpretive dance performance. Frustratingly, contact with the spirits with help finding Treena's old Silvered items was still forthcoming. The lithe witch gyrated in the milky moonlight with a placid face, trying not to sour her own ritual with personal disappointments. All the stadium-class lights pointed at the field were off (a rarity on lots of campuses these days), but it allowed Carmallia the ability to see some stars through the light pollution with her naked eye, which was reassuring. Last night she'd used her feminine wiles and dishonesty to lure another being into a lethal ambush, and it was still bothering Carmallia even now, when all she really wanted focus on tonight was avenging Treena's death and maybe finding her old silver equipment in the process. Vengeance aside, that shiny metal Treena had been killed with on her person was getting tougher to find these days... "gently caress it. Got too many layers on me for this," she chided herself in a level tone. "Gotta bare my soul to find atonement, and not just for me but for her." Having committed herself to the age-old processes of the moon priestess, Carmallia disrobed herself of her leathers and furs and resumed dancing upon the pitchers mound until the Answers were found... (or else danger appeared). (Assuming living status:) Carmallia, Day 24: > Baseball/Softball Diamond at University: Druidry: Make protective zone around field, centering some kind of focus upon the pitcher's mound Carmallia, Night 24: > Baseball/Softball Diamond at University: Soothsaying: (get nekkid in the dark and dance-trance in order to) Scry out locations of Treena's Silvered Gear and/or Bob and Treena's murderer.

Bignatz is changing. It started with diabolical leathers and now that he's been fighting through the castle, the change is accelerating. He's as quick-footed and agile as ever, but the battles spent weilding the ash club have left him leaner, more nasty and hungry. Hungry. He stifles a bark that was meant to be a laugh while taking another bite of monster torso. He gazes into the dark abyss beneath the lonesome labyrinth and contemplates how best to act against The Count. The team is very low on supplies and time is running short. The alliance with Visconti was promising but it's been weeks since they have heard from him. More and more, it seems like the viscount had played them for fools. Bignatz discards the remainder of his loathsome meal. It was time to pay Visconti's boys a visit Day 24: Bignatz eats a monster body to heal up and gazes into the abyss below the labyrinth. He gives in to his beastial nature. Night 24: Jump Visconti's men as they attempt to make their daily garlic purchase. Muscle in and procure the town's further garlic supply for the team.

Day-drinking, while there still is a day to drink in. PAR-TAY Day 24 The boys hold a party in the house and everyone (except monsters that hate humanity but like.. monstrous looking but good-hearted people or creatures are welcome) is invited! Drinking and A Good Time™ heal all wounds, right? Night 24 Bignatz looks like he could use some muscle of his own. Van and Dan accompany him to secure the garlic.

Day 24: Chef Hartefeest, throw Monsterless(?) Mash with Van and Dan. Do your thing and feed hungry mouths. Man, Bignatz has developed quite the insatiable appetite lately. Could it be something missing from your food? It hasn't had the proper punch since the garlic shortage started. You swear, hoarders shouldn't be allowed to buy the poo poo up, I mean someone should stand by the produce stand with a club and... oh huh? alright then Night 24: Enact operation flanksteak on The Viscount Ottone. Sneak through the passage at the top of 𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕮𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖙's stairs to Ottone's apartment, pretending to deliver the Accursed Charcuterie from the Evil Kitchen. Whether this works or not, end up squashing the poor sap in a pincer maneuver with Van, Dan, and Bignatz coming the other way.

Mr Mi-Go Reunited with their trusty walking stick, the entity smiles, soon getting used to the heft of it. It's made from some kind of dark wood shot through with veins of red that catch the light sometimes and seem to subtly shift as to their exact pattern and placement. Any druid, carpenter or botanist looking at closely it would be perplexed and at a loss to name the kind of tree it came from. It's exquisitely carved but simple, eschewing any fancy frippery for being solid and practical. As to what secrets it holds? Time, perhaps, will tell. Mr Mi-Go ponders their next course of action and decides to join the party, although first it take stock of the groups inventory and will sell off anything that isn't of obvious use to the others in order to purchase healing potions, stuff for Dan & Van to continue to repair the Dragula more fully, wooden stakes and anything else that can be found which might be of use to the group to be delivered to their current residence. After that the Destroyer of Worlds will kick back and enjoy a nice glass or two of sherry or port while the younger folk engage in revelries. At some point in the evening it starts to sing, an old and sad melody perhaps surprisingly it is clearly an accomplished singer* with the voice of... well... angel is probably misleading in this case but it's enough to make those of a sensitive disposition weep. The words are impossible to discern, in some language unknown and perhaps unknowable but the sense of it is about time and change and loss though tinged through with a certain defiance against the seemingly inevitable. When the song finishes Mi-Go smiles slightly to the others and will top up the glass and raise a toast to the groups success despite the odds. Day 24 1. Sell loot that isn't useful, buy supplies including stakes and healing potions. Mi-Go will also buy some Halloween costumes for the group, along with a good deal of fireworks, perhaps under the impression that this whole thing may just be an elaborate Halloween celebration? 2. Attend party, sing to inspire the group for the battles ahead and get a little bit tipsy to loosen up the old chaotic powers. Night 24 Claiming that the old baseball diamond reminds Mi-Go of their college days, the old "man" takes a stroll there at around the time Carmalia is out there dancing in the all-together. Well at least she doesn't have to worry about being seen by this one. Mi-Go will even take a few practice swings using their walking stick and even a few practice pitches with a ball that it finds. The old "man" will generally mosey about making sure that the hunter isn't left alone and vulnerable as well as perhaps adding Blind Luck to the attempted magics. *editor: Mi-Go fans see Mr Mi-Go's Chaosmas Carol Stoner Sloth fucked around with this message at 08:32 on Oct 26, 2023 |

"Just get the sample and get back to corporate. Understand?" "Look, I can't just charge in there. The was Bob's mistake! You don't understand, this place is..." "Get the sample by the end of the month or you're finished! Understand? Your work. Your career. Your life" "Yes, Director Park. You can count on me." Day 24 Hawk the Eagle attends the house party while Lester shuts himself in the lab. Lester works on creating a secret device, concealable in his coat, capable of taking blood and tissue samples, and storing them at low temperatures. Night 24 Lester and Hawk join the crew shaking down Ottone Visconti's men for garlic and if necessary Ottone Visconti himself.

Bignatz savors the moment. The stagnant air of the labyrinth. The stygian darkness. The comforting call of the void. What a wonderful place to hide a monster. There's another place, though; far below him. He's never felt so keenly aware. He can hear them, a brooding army deep under the ground. Kindred spirits, castaways like himself. Bignatz buckles the diabolical leathers onto his thin frame and grasps the ash club tightly. He lurches forward to embrace the abyss. Day 26: Bignatz jumps into the dark abyss beneath the labyrinth. Night 26: Raise Hell

Mr Mi-Go Feeling perhaps a little guilty that the group hasn't even introduced their collective selves (and Mi-Go too) to their host for the coming festivities, the strange entity will seek out the center of things here. The blind alien thing taps its way along with their walking stick, making full use of their luck but also seem drawn to the higher concentration of chaotic potential that Dracula's Hidden Lair represents but remain cautious on this secretive venture - feeling that it would be best to at least glimpse their benefactor and figure out the most appropriate presents to give before making themselves as a group.  Besides Mi-Go need to try out its Halloween costume to make sure of the fit. Not to mention find somewhere to store the fireworks for the big event.

Name: Mistress Carmallia Edensbane Theme: Wolfmother - Woman Skill Class: Hedge Priestess https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKeqK9BmbBg While Carmallia was dancing under the moon and stars on a baseball pitch in her birthday suit, her trance groove was suddenly interrupted, IMMEDIATELY after she spontaneously envisioned the compound German word: "Buntglasnacht-"  *CRASH CLANG CLANKETY-DINK-DANK!!!*  "Dag-Nabbit!"A calamitously noisy clatter of an entire supply shed's-worth of sports equipment and baseball bats rang out starkly against the concrete of a dugout, soon followed by the clangorous indignant yelling of a one Mr. Mi-Go the unseeing elderly homunculus in a chaotic alliance with the other Hunters... "Mister M'goo, is that you?" Carmallia spoke out in hushed tones from halfway across the field, quickly gathering her clothes and donning them in the dark. "You almost scared me half to death! What are you doing out here at night, you silly so-and-so..? Here- let me walk you back to the Old House..." Thankfully, Carmallia never had to explain why she'd been naked to the blind and bumbling Mr. Mi-Go. She DID, however, explain how she'd been given a message from the moon-spirits about Broken Stained-Glass Windows, as well as the secret dwelling place of the Murderer at the Lake. Carmallia, Day 26: > Old House: Rest off any injuries from fight with Dorkula, Consecrate Water with HotSauce, Horseradish, and Garlic Essence (all that is left in the fridge after the party, lol) to make Hot & Spicy Holy Water Carmallia, Night 26: > Team up to murder the Murderer at the Lake (badguy who killed Treena and Bob the Accountant).

Van and Dan "Well, I am utterly shocked this evil seeming creepy count from lord knows where ended up being some supernatural creature of darkness. Shocked." Van says, deadpan and still. He could not be more sarcastic. "Hey, it's best to not judge anyone prematurely. But in this case.. maybe we should have." Dan retorts, before agreeing. They split and gnaw on a head of raw garlic. Day 26 They head to the college campus clinic with that one hot nurse to get patched up from the serious injuries. Also try and set up a date after 'they take care of all this Draculia nonsense'. Night 26 "We didn't like what happened to our fellow hunters.. we didn't like that at all." Van and Dan load up Dragula for bear and assist going after the Lake Murderer. Sure, the world might end soon, but, on the other hand.. revenge?

Lester from R&D "Who's up for some garlic bread!" Lester exclaims as he smells the fresh garlic. He searches the kitchen for a toaster but can't seem to find one. "What kind of house has no toaster!" he remarks. Lester begins to toast the garlic bread over a Bunsen burner and hands out somewhat charred pieces to the others in the house. Day 26 Lester rests in the Old House. Afterwards he sets up the antique scientific equipment in the lab. "I suppose this could be of some use" he says, blowing the dust off the equipment. Lester will then use concentrated garlic extracts to make some very potent garlic bombs and pass them out to the group. Night 26 Lester and Hawk will team up with the others to avenge Bob and Treena. "Time to take care of a bit of personal business!"

Day 26: Chef Hartefeest, rejoice at the return of your favorite ingredient. Everyone is taking part, and it's so beautiful it brings a tear to your eye. All the onions and garlic you're working with probably also took part in that tear too, though. Not to be a hog, you somehow show the utmost restraint and not use all the garlic. You merely make some cheesy garlic baked potatoes for the road, and for a day of recovery at the manse, a cauldron of soothing garlic and onion soup. Rigor Tony from The Tavern swears the stuff cures rickets, nearsightedness, and even ye olde covid. He's your premier source of holistic health advice. He'd never steer you wrong, I mean look how tall he stands at his age. If anything, he looks a bit... stiff. Night 26: "Walk" your pet fish around the lake on their kitchen twine leashes. These poor things can't stay in a tank all the time. After the loss of your vampire-hunting friends, you're sure to take care of the loved ones you have, despite the risk of running into masked killers in the night. What you wouldn't give to tenderize that bastard. Speaking of vampire-hunting friends, you wonder where your living ones are tonight.

Mr Mi-Go Mr Mi-Go is the last to depart the lake house, seeming to wait until others go to approach the corpse. A strange, furtively hidden action is performed and when the entity leaves it is sure that this killer will be no more trouble. Call it a precautionary measure given a sense of how these things go. As to what that might be... well some things are best kept secret, for now at least, but it is apparently the work of mere moments and then the Devourer of Fate moves to catch up with the group, walking stick tapping along and presaging its approach through the darkened streets. It doesn't seem to notice if anyone's been intruding on the group's temporary residence. When daylight comes it will suggest the others join it on a morning constitutional that coincidentally leads through the Labyrinth as if drawn there by something - is this concern for its fellow vampire hunter? Perhaps, though if Mi-Go has even noticed that they're missing it certainly has kept quiet about it. It brings along a thermos of the nourishing, garlic rich soup along to ward off hunger from its walk perhaps? And perhaps if it comes to it and a clumsy spill of soup onto an open mouthed opponent might help free them from whatever curse holds them in thrall? Assuming it survives whatever awaits in the darkness there, it will take a brief stop in the conservatory - feeling that the better lighting here should allow it to finally read that book that it acquired at the library. With pictures not proving of much interest, given the lack of visual acuity, it skips to then index and attempts to read. Of course it doesn't have the necessary eyesight to actually make out words but the mere suggestion of them filtered through its frankly bizarre perception of the universe might lead, quite by accident of course, to it sounding out eldritch syllables of immense chaotic power to summon some alien thing beneath the castle. The kind of thing that would feed off the mystic power of the curse to grow rapidly and spread emanations that increase the chaotic energies that Mi-Go feeds on. After that it will return to the house, discarding the tome in apparent frustration and claiming that 'the butler did it' was an ending anyone could have seen coming a mile off. Epilogue to Night 26 Before leaving the lake last night, do a strange thing that might forestall the killer having, for example, some sort of power to return to life. No I will not elaborate on this further at this time. Day 27 Take a brisk morning walk into the darkness of the Labyrinth, attempt to free Bignatz through a series of coincidences and the power of soup. Night 27 Attempt a spot of light reading and in the process, perhaps, accidentally misread the table of contents so critically badly as to summon a thing from Elsewhere that feeds on the power of the curse and converts it to increasing levels of chaotic energy as it rapidly starts to spread through the castle.

There's a brief moment of clarity for Bignatz as he somehow lands safely somewhere within the abyss. It's much more quiet here than it was on the floor of the Labyrinth. However, he trusts his senses, there is something down here. For Bignatz, even his wide eyes struggle in the abyssal darkness. Disembodied screams echo in the distance, as a humid, clinging dampness hangs in the air. A metallic churn throbs incessantly. Surely, he must be very close to Hell. The very parking lot of perdition. Still feeling very much alive, Bignatz tightens his buckles and rests the ash club on his shoulder. He walks doggedly on, toward the metallic sound in the distance. His own bloodlust has landed him here, down in the dark. Determination drives him forward. Even here, against all hope, he will not abandon the quest. In the madness of the void Bignatz seeks a way to destroy The Count. Day 28: Bignatz attempts to get his bearing in the dark abyss .If this is the parking lot, it must lead to something. He carefully heads towards the distant noises relying on his keen hearing. Night 28: Begin to consider that there may actually be a King of All the Dead. What does "Dracula" ~the name don't mean much in the void~ matter to the absolute dead innumerable? The dead should be left in peace! They should be left in peace!! Is there a way to end the Curse here in the void?

Name: Mistress Carmallia Edensbane Theme: Wolfmother - Woman Skill Class: Hedge Priestess https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZUtiO50IQ8 It was now or never - or so it seemed. Treena's murder had been avenged with the slaying of her killer, who turned out to be "just a crazed mortal" instead. Carmallia wasn't buying it. The next morning, the other Hunters had noticed that Bignatz was still missing and was last seen loping towards the labrynth, after eating curse-tainted meatstuffs... "I will join," Carmallia stated, getting up from the lawn. "Let me grab my Climbing Vine and such, since we might need to go UP to get out again." The hedge priestess was quiet for most of the way to the sewage treatment plant. She didn't know when she'd had her last full meal and had forgotten to grab breakfast, and to her sensitive olfactory senses the flasks of Hot & Spicy Holy Water she had in her pack were smelling almost worth a sip or even a gargle - better than having to smell the sewage treatment plant again. "Now, M'Goo -" Carmallia spoke with uncharacteristic authority over the chaos master, "Do NOT leave my side until we make it to the entrance..." Carmallia, Day 27/8: > Join Mi-Go to Labyrinth with Magic Vine Rope and Teleport stuff if necessary, to rescue Bignatz Carmallia, Night 27/8: > Already near the castle?  It's Raid Time Babeys!

Van and Dan Wildsing A dead water-walking lake murderer AND a potential future hot date? Score! Though Van's hot date is usually cool to the touch, and gently rumbling with the whispery echoes of the torments of the dead and damned. Day 27 Going along for the rescue attempt, as it will improve their chances on the final confrontation and curse-breaking. Oh, yeah, and it's the.. right? Thing to do? Night 27 Load up everything they've got, laden Dragula down with the various launchers and concoctions and polish those silver spikes. And show this undead ancient chucklefuck who's gotten a little too big for his britches who really runs this town. Or die horribly and unlikely very heroically.

Bignatz returns, more to his own surprise than anyone else's. Any chagrin he may have felt at getting lost in the abyss pales in the joy at being part of the team. The hunters now possess the Hell Gem with mere hours to spare. Bignatz grins a feral smile. There is still a whole lot of rear end to kick on the way to The Count. Leather bedecked and ash club in hand, he will hunt with the hunters. Day 30: Bignatz helps lead the charge further into the castle. While the fighting is sure to be furious, he keeps a keen eye for any potential threats. If the team encounters a slumbering vampire, he deftly places the old coin under their tongue. Night 30: Attempt to hold out as long as (in)humanly possible with this motley group of hunters. Bignatz prioritizes defending his fellow hunters.

Lester from R&D Lester readies himself for the final battle with Count Dracula, thinking back to when Director Park called him into the C suite meeting room. "We need you to travel to 𝕮𝖆𝖘𝖙𝖑𝖊 𝕯𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖚𝖑𝖆 and obtain a tissue and blood sample from Count Dracula, assuming of course vampires even have blood that is. Little is known about their kind, however we have a team of researchers that have uncovered evidence that Count Dracula has been alive for over a thousand years...." Lester donned his heavy protective clothing and readied his hidden device to quickly extract a tissue and blood sample from The Count. "Once we obtain the sample and sequence Dracula's DNA, immortality will be within our reach..." Lester loaded a variety of potions and bombs, ethereal invisibility potion at the ready. "And the reach of our wealthiest clients of course." Lester fed Hawk the Eagle and equipped his Devil Pike claws. He snapped back to the present. "Well Hawk, this is it. Time to rid the World of this evil for good. I suppose we can decide what to do with the sample if we live through this ordeal. Though the corporate higher ups aren't exactly the types of people you say 'no' to." He began to laugh uncontrollably. Oh, what fun this all was. Day 30 Lester from R&D and Hawk the Eagle battle to the Throne room with the other hunters. Working as a team, they try to conserve energy and supplies for the final battle. Night 30 Hawk will charge into battle against Count Dracula as Lester peppers him with garlic bombs. Lester will look for the perfect opportunity to drink one of his invisibility potions and get close to The Count while he is distracted. Lester will then attempt to obtain a sample from Count Dracula with his hidden device. Lester will then return to battle shooting bolts from his crossbow and tossing explosive potions to finish Count Dracula for good and break the curse.

Van and Dan Tore up from the floor up yet again, but not in a great way. Hasty bandages sterilized with liquor, some quick repairs to Dragula's speaker system, and it's time to blast off into legend or obscurity. Endless Night It's all about coming together as a team and helping each other out. The last of the Party All The Time Pills distributed and eaten themselves. And blasting Dragula from the sikk speaker system in Dragula. And probably trying to batter that dusty old boned motherfucker into the hell crystal. Fighting. Thrashing. Spending all they got left, and maybe one of them would make it out alive. Or would the party over the last tens of thousands of years called 'humanity' turn as lame as Jimmy Fallon?

Mr Mi-Go Mi-Go will prepare and heal up with the rest of them, taking the offered party drugs gleefully as 'medication'. It once more dons its halloween costume and offers them to the rest of the group to disguise the party as simple monsterous party goers. Then it will lead the group towards Dracula's Ultra Secret Evil Tomb with a brief stop on the way to check on the fireworks. Being what they are this inevitably leads to a some loose fireworks lodged in Mi-Go's clothing and trailing a crude fuse of gunpowder that leads to the tomb - a stray spark could easily ignite the whole thing and cause an explosion below the tomb. Once at the Tomb, assuming the group makes it there, Mi-Go will confront the groups "host" and hefts its walking cane and once combat begins... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rindN8Dtu6U&t=297s but also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PioHZ_qI_Y4&t=95s ... it unsheathes a strange and deadly blade which seems made of a unearthly metal forged in unknown fires of Elsewhere - it is a dull grey-silver and emblazoned with incomprehensible runes that seem to shift and change in a way that does violence to the eyes of observers. The sword glows slightly with an eerie, sickly blue light that seems to sting the very air itself. Mi-Go will no doubt seem to fumble about the place in a series of coincidental but surprisingly deft combat techniques that make it all but impossible to predict. While this likely won't directly damage their foe as much as wreck the place while dodging through pure accident... perhaps there is a deeper purpose to the Devourer of Fate's actions. Humanity is fond of imagining their Destiny as threads in the eternal tapestry woven by the gods, to follow such an analogy one might imagine that the little old "man" sets about cutting those those mystic strings that have for so long bound the King of Vampires fate to this mortal plane, rendering him vulnerable to final and true death at the hands of the hunters. Day 30 Heal up and buff along with the rest of the hunters. Outfit the group with the halloween monster disguises, inadvertently trail a gunpowder fuse from the fireworks to the Evil Tomb as Mi-Go leads the group there. Night 30 Go fight Dracula, use Mi-Go's Sword Cane to sever the Threads of Fate that allow an immortal creature such as this to survive - leaving it all too vulnerable to, say, being accidentally impaled by the wooden sheath of the walking stick or other such misfortune.

Night(?): Chef, after being pushed back from the main hall, seek a moment's respite in Ottone's vacant quarters and raid the kitchen. fashion any lids and the like into bucklers and emergency protection for the battered party. Before leaving, pick up Ottone's Cold Italian Steel. It's a tad unwieldy for knifework in the kitchen, but what better to fillet a vampire than a vampire's blade? Still Night(!): Head into battle like a fully loaded Waffle House hash brown with all the fixins: countable grains, the haunted voicemail and bullhorn, garlic potato spud launcher with the buff/debuff rootsalve vial, and Italian Cold Steel.

You've got a brief respite before the evil one will surely appear. If you've got anything you want to do besides double down on finding and killing him you better do it now. The others -- they're surely fine. SniperWoreConverse fucked around with this message at 15:41 on Oct 31, 2023 |

Chef Hartefeest, reveal yourself to be 𝕯𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖚𝖑𝖆! ...Of course you're not 𝕯𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖚𝖑𝖆, just kidding... Chef Hartefeest, reveal your secret weapon: Reach into your apron for your recipes that you have been writing in a Bible all along! ...no? Wait, you did find a chicken wishbone in your apron, though. These things never came true for you, but maybe because your wishes haven't been realistic enough. Well, it's worth a shot now, huh? Chef Hartefeest, extend the wishbone to your teammates to gamble on a wish. (Hartefeest's wish in the chamber: Dracula has a sneezing fit once we start kicking up clouds in this dusty rear end tomb)

Name: Mistress Carmallia Edensbane Theme: Wolfmother - Woman Skill Class: Hedge Priestess The castle had been wrecked, of course, but then again Dracula's throne room was emptier than Carmallia should have expected. Amist all the wreckage and smoldering ruins, an antique phonograph played an old record: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z81OENfZNkQ "Heh..." Carmallia snorted, sniffling and wiping her nose of blood and snot, "Looks who's breaking the H.O.A. covenants now!" The tips of Carmallia's antlers began to glow with the whitest of lights as she closed her eyes and held her hands out in a series of arcane gestures. "Been saving this one up for a while... or a 'rainy day', you might call it."  Tendrils of silver light broke in from the shadows, bathing the Vampire Hunters in the light of the Moon and Stars above and beyond. "These celestial energies reflect the true power of the Sun's rays," Carmallia intoned. "Use them to cleanse - to purify - and most of all: to piss Dracula off for the rest of his lovely fucken' existence, good riddance!" Carmallia, Day/Night 31: > Hedge Priestess: Cast Moon-Silvered Armaments on Team, and make these moments count.

Van and Dan Wildsing They have a couple brews, bandage their wounds, take a breather and get ready for the final showdown. The precipice of eternal darkness Van uses Dragula to haul rear end around the chambers while fighting Drac, blasting music the whole time, and trying to give his brother cover to jam the Hell crystal into that fucker's chest like a stake. Also generally just whoopin undead rear end.

alright better put an end to this bullshit It goes good. You're able to fight your way thru a bunch of monsters right up to The Tomb itself, when the door opens of its own accord and things immediately start to go bad. RavenousScoot posted:(Hartefeest's wish in the chamber: Dracula has a sneezing fit once we start kicking up clouds in this dusty rear end tomb) it works dracula comes out extremely hosed up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLgXJ_zXcrQ 𝕯𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖚𝖑𝖆, unlike any rumors to the contrary, is not particularly suave or refined and is in fact pretty offputting and gross, and a completely hosed up rear end in a top hat. He kinda half rear end mutters some lovely bars and instead of seeing you and making it into a big villainous monologue just pulls out a gun and starts  Hartefeest & Carmallia are hit pretty much immediately, & he unloads on his own castle and smashes up a ton of pricy chandeliers & poo poo like that. Van & Dan are able to cruise up -- -- open palm slam -- -- it's a crit -- The hell gem is crammed into Vlad's evil heart and he falls off a shattered balcony, through several floors past the labyrinth "ℑ 𝔡𝔬𝔫'𝔱 𝔤𝔦𝔳𝔢 𝔞 𝔰𝔥𝔦𝔦𝔦𝔦𝔦𝔦𝔱!" He smashes thru into the abyssal pit where he will be presumably be trapped for all time with no possible way of escaping, the end Almost everyone died or was extremely brutally injured, but The Curse is lifted and the only thing left is some lovely ruins. That and the presumably huge cost to fix the damaged civic infrastructure, but that's not the kind of thing vampire hunters usually concern themselves with. Not the most incredible thread in the history of vamp huntin' but drat it the job got done. Thanks 4 playing or lurkin & have a good remaining halloween
