That would count as a divine favour. Incredibly dangerous and not recommended unless your god likes you a lot.

Spoiler: Character Sheet (click to show/hide)

Name: Stephen Kravitz (Stefan Krawiec)
Appearance: Thin, with a long face. He looks tired constantly, due to his messy dark ginger hair and dark eyebags. He is rather tall and lean. Most of his clothes are ill-fitting. He mostly wears white shirts with bowties and beige pants.
Personality: Stephen has a bad tendency of being melancholic when faced with problems. Another flaw of his is that he is a bit of a womanizer, though he vehemently disagrees with that. When happy, he often whistles or hums tunes that he appears to make on the spot. Kravitz is quite the social chap and enjoys interacting with his fans.
Backstory: Kravitz was born in a small Silesian coal town. His father was very strict and intended for his son to follow his footsteps and work in the coal mines. Kravitz, however, greatly enjoyed music. He stole his father's savings and ran away to Prague to make his living as a musician. He was in luck, as an established musician was taking in students. From him Stephen learned how to play the violin (he was a self-taught trumpet player) and was taught how to read music sheets. After learning all that his master could teach him, Kravitz's luck had left him. He could not find employment and was running out of money. He managed to get his hands on a violin and stole a trumpet and was on the run from the police. He played in opium dens, where the drugged up clientele entered a trance much deeper due to Stephen's tunes. With his last money he bought a ticket on a trans-atlantic ship to make a new life in the United States. Now, he has only the clothes on his back, fifty cents, a trumpet and a violin.

Patron God: Shub Niggurath
Gift: His music makes people and animals more subdued and docile. It causes a bit of a hallucinatory high.
Insight: Eldritch Music

I'd like to join this mission.

-Change the knowledge to something less specific, if you can. The play would probably be included in the "Tomes" category, and you having knowledge of it would mean that you also share minds with another fragment of King Hastur. And then it would get very weird if you meet Shub Niggurath, considering that he's her mate.

-Shub Niggurath. She's the godess of fertility and the Lovecraft equivalent of Aphrodite. She's a tentacled goat horror that likes to "copulate" with humans. If you don't want things to get really weird, you might want to change the god.

-I want some clarification on the "It causes a bit of a hallucinatory high." part of the gift. I'll probably just have the music make living beings more docile.

-Changed knowledgo to 'European Cults', as my character travelled quite a bit during his youth. Is that alright?

- I sure do know about  the !!FUN!! involved with Shub Niggurath and I sure do accept that. Hell, I'm pretty sure that if Stephen becomes insane he'll get something related to *ahem* fertility as he is a womaniser.

- I was thinking our sight is somewhat more ccolorful and a bit distorted. You don't have hallucinations per se, but you see the sounds and hear the sights, if you know what I mean.

-Knowledge is used to represet what does the character knows about the eldritch and how much they understand it. Cults aren't really "eldritch."
What about something like (Eldritch/Occult/Cosmic) Music?

-Ok. If you end pregnant with aliens or anything like that it's your fault.

-That can be an upgrade to your power. Currently, it will only turn animals docile and make people calm down.

[SaberToothTiger]

Eldritch music sounds excellent. I can't wait to ger preggers with speggers.

Keep going with the cultist

((Yes! Now, I just need to modify everything in the turn draft I was working on. That means, the turn will be either in a few hours or tomorrow morning. Still, I'm glad that you posted.))

((And of course, the whole turn I had ready is deleted. Should have made a backup earlier...))

((Unexpected complications. Family decided to celebrate birthday some days earlier. Will be busy during the whole weekend and Monday. I'm really sorry.))

(I have been unable to access a computer for the last days. I might be able to update today late, but if can't now, then turn will be in the weekend.)

(Forget it. I'll just say this is on hiatus until I'm 100% sure I'll have enough time to do a single update.)

[randomgenericusername]

Okay, lots of stuff happened, but today I regained access to my computer, the one that had the files that kept track of some important data like mental state. But everyone probably lost interest on this, right?

I still want to continue this RTD, though. If I can at least get 1 player (new or one of the old players) I will make another update + recap. If no one cares about continuing this anymore, I'll lock the thread.

I really apologize for not giving any updates on this until now, but I didn't want to just doublepost or bump the thread without reason other than saying that this was still alive, since no one posted since my last post in april.

I LIVE! with grotesque birb head. IS HORRIBLE!

Glad to see that there's someone that is still interested. Want me to continue with your action of listening the sounds in the darkness once the turn is done? Will be working on a recap of the events now.

[SaberToothTiger]

Still in.

[randomgenericusername]

Still in.

Neat, that makes 2 players.

By the way, while I am going to be working on the next turn and recap, I'm also going to be busy and wait for other players to confirm meanwhile. Should I still make daily updates?
