You still rushed it.

Meh.

Great.

Bad writing. (Sorry, English as second language.)

It's... beautiful! T_T

I am GM\ I voted for this because I'm a smartass.

[tomas1297]

 Eating. Will post soon. Edited OP. Sanity costs are still huge, but sanity meter is changed and everything restores more sanity. Sleep has been removed, and fanatic flaw has been edited due to removal of sleep. It will be much more FUN now. I will tweak the "relaxed" skill soon, to make it useful with the new balance.

[tomas1297]

 Balanced "relax" and made darkness more dangerous (-10 sanity). Light sources also run out faster (candles 3 -> 2 turns, torches and lanterns 5 -> 4 turns).

Turn 4: In which,

surprisingly no one dies

.

Spoiler: Wallace Johnson (Taricus) is screwed so, so much... (click to show/hide)

 -You yell at the creature something that includes its father, a stick and some sandpaper. You notice a humanoid shape coming out of the hallway. The creature is much larger than you, its body is pale and covered in scars and blood. It is wearing an executioners hood so you can't see its face. By the time you stand up it is already near you. ((5-1) :2 = 4) You panic (-15 sanity). ((1-1) :2 = 0 : 2) The creature grabs you by the head and smashes your body against the wall...
 You open your eyes. The creature you saw before is dragging through a hallway you by the leg. You could try running, fighting or waiting for a better chance to escape.

Status:A few broken ribs, broken leg (-1 to mobility rolls, takes mobility rolls when sane), beaten head (-1 to thinking), stressed (-1 to all rolls).
Sanity: 60/100
Inventory: Empty.

Spoiler: Game over, Owain Jones (quip)1 (click to show/hide)

 -You light your lantern and try to smash the door. ((1 - 1 -1) :2 = -0,5) You fail horribly, unlike the mist which you can now feel on your back, giving you shivers ((12-1) : 2 = 6), however you accept your fate and keep completely calm.

Status: Stressed (-1 to all rolls)
Sanity: 40/100
Inventory: Lantern, lantern oil 3/4.

Spoiler: Bob Smith (Krath) slept through his history lessons. (click to show/hide)

 -Not realizing you're in a medieval castle, you search for a pump shotgun. ((11 - 1) : 2 = 5) instead you find a lantern, lantern oil and a trapdoor through which you could exit. Your candle goes out (-10 sanity due to darkness).

Status:Stressed (-1 to all rolls)
Sanity: 70/100
Inventory: Lantern, lantern oil (4/4).

Spoiler: Christopher Haslag (warhammer651) lives! (click to show/hide)

 -You quickly head into the next room. What luck? It appears to have a lock on it from your side and theres a table with the key close to you. You lock the door, just before the creature starts smashing it. However you can see the door will hold. There is a chest in the room, a few boxes and on the wall you can see an old ceremonial knife, which you decide to take.

Status:Stressed (-1 to all rolls)
Sanity: 75/100
Inventory: Torch 4/4, ceremonial knife.

Spoiler: Amelius Blackthorn (Draignean) is so confused. (click to show/hide)

 -You sit down. Your leg doesn't heal, because it's...well...broken. However your finger does. You open the book. ((8 - 1 + 1) : 2 = 4 ) However it is written in some kind of ancient language. Maybe you could decipher it later, right now it seems to be complete gibberish. Good thing it didn't make you insane, right? Heh, like that would happen!

Status: Stressed (-1 to all rolls), broken leg (-1 to movement rolls, has to take movement rolls when sane).
Sanity: 45/100
Inventory: Candle 1/2.

 New poll!

 Also:

 

Well... getting a little stressed because of that I can see.

Going insane, not so much

 It was -5 sanity. It's hardly going insane, just stress.

[Taricus]

Beat the living darkness out of it!

[warhammer651]

Open the chest from behind so that no traps are triggered. Yell at the creature to go [redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted]and [redacted][redacted][redacted] it's mother until [redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted] Sideways!
Barricade the door, just to be on the safe side

I just realized that there's only one entrance to this room from the description.

Ah well, still gots me stabbin kinfe of +2stabbyness

[quip]

Put down lantern, smash open the door, pick up the lantern and run.

[Draignean]

I said rest, not magically heal. My guy is 70 years old and walking around on a broken leg, I thought he would appreciate sitting down.

Take the book, open a few of the containers in the room, GET OUT OF THE ROOM BEFORE THE CANDLE GOES OUT.

[Krath]

Hop down the trapdoor and light my lantern if it's too dark. JUSTICE has evaded the Communist Darkness yet again.

[tomas1297]

 Oh god, you guys are fast. I will post update in an hour. Tired due to work and grudges. Also I would appreciate if you guys would post actions in bold. That is referring to you, Krath. Also, holy shit some people actually want me to make this harder. 0_o Masochist much? Turn 1: You wake up in a dark chamber, then suddenly Cthulhu kills ((12 + 6) : 2 = 9) players.

[Krath]

Also I would appreciate if you guys would post actions in bold. That is referring to you, Krath.

The one time I forget...

NAGNAGNAGNAGNAGNAGNAG

No, you no I love you.

[tomas1297]

 Will post tomorrow. Sorry. At least I'm coming home early tomorrow. Tight schedule. Hopefully I will post twice per day next time.

[tomas1297]

No, you no I love you.

o Krath u such a homo

 Removed loner/social and similar feats/flaws. I decided having you alone all the time would be more fun. Also the castle keeps changing all the time. It has a mind of its own. Also medics can now heal large wounds. There will also be rare potions of health, which I have not included in the OP.

Turn 5:

Spoiler: R.I.P. Wallace Johnson (Taricus). (click to show/hide)

 - ((9-1) : 2 = 4) You manage to break the creatures grip on your leg and stand up. The creature faces you ((4 - 1) : 2 = ~2) and punches you before you react. The hit was strong, making you lose balance and fall down. ((5 - 1) : 2 =2) You try to crawl away, but the creature smashes you. You feel enormous pain as the world around you goes dark.

Status: Dead.

Spoiler: Christopher Haslag (warhammer651) is doing surprisingly well. (click to show/hide)

 -You open the chest from behind, not realizing that creatures don't have the intelligence to make traps and ghosts experience...technical difficulty. In the chest you find some kind of tome. You then use the chest to barricade the door since it is very heavy (no roll because you had plenty of time to do it).

Status:Stressed
Sanity: 75/100
Inventory: Torch 4/4, ceremonial knife, mysterious tome.

Spoiler: Owain Jones (quip) still lives. (click to show/hide)

 - ((7- 1) : 2) You try to smash the door again, but you only succeed after the mist is all around you. You run (( 8 - 1 ) : 2 = ~4) without having any accidents. There is an open door leading into some kind of large hall and stairs leading down into the dungeons. You stop to regain your breath and... holy shit where did those scratches come from?

Status: Scared, lots of small scratches on back and chest.
Sanity: 40/100
Inventory: Lantern, lantern oil 3/4.

 By the way, it was the mist.

Spoiler: Bob Smith (Krath) enters dungeon level. (click to show/hide)

 -You hop down through the trapdoor. It is very dark and you figure you're in the basement level (Warning : entered dungeons). You walk down the hallway and enter a room which has many bookshelves and some kind of statue in the middle. There are also two exits, one leading to a large hall and another leading into a hallway. Suddenly a book falls from one of the bookshelves as if moved by an unseen force and lands open right in front of you. (( 3 - 1 ) : 2 = 1 ) (-20 sanity)

Status:Stressed
Sanity: 50/100
Inventory: Lantern, lantern oil (3/4).

Spoiler: Amelius Blackthorn (Draignean) has a relatively boring turn. (click to show/hide)

 - You open a few containers ((4 - 1) : 2 = ~2), but find nothing. You exit the room before the candle goes out. You hear a screech coming from the tower. ((9 - 1) : 2 = 4) (-10 sanity)

Status: Scared), broken leg (-1 to movement rolls, has to take movement rolls when sane).
Sanity: 35/100
Inventory: Mysterious tome.

 Darvi is next. Will put him in next turn.

 Pssst...Check the "dead" section near the end of the OP.

[Taricus]

R.I.P wallace, That insult involving sandpaper isn't going to let that night creature sleep for a while.

[warhammer651]

Open up the tome, but be ready to close it quickly if it starts fucking with my mind. Keep a particular eye out for anything related to what ever is outside the door, or any history of this place. Any useful info basically

[Taricus]

Am I the only one who thought he was asking for it? 

[Draignean]

Find a relatively well lit spot, attempt to decipher tome.
