UtLS4E26: Superficially Satisfactory

On this episode of Under the Library, a Call of Cthulhu Podcast:

Doc finishes stitching up Sam’s shoulder wound and gives Colette a bottle of pills for Sam to take 3x daily for one week. They leave the surgery room and join Buddy, Johnny, and the sleeping Amos.

Sam questions Lancelot about his town and then asks Lancelot what he yearns for, prompting another strange episode. Johnny then pushes Lancelot to share some confusing information about the permanent residents of the town.

The group discusses their plans, deciding they need to search for Cheryl, as Amos awakens abruptly from a dream. Sam asks Doc Red to watch Amos for a while, but accidentally reveals some information that devastates Amos. Leaving a distraught Amos in the clinic, the group splits up to pack for a trip into the desert.

------------------------

Under the Library, an actual-play Call of Cthulhu podcast, where cosmic horror is steeped in mystery and slathered with self-deprecating humor. Our main storyline, a sandbox created by our Keeper (Michael), is set in (a fictitious) 1942 New Mexico and follows the misadventures of Collette (Emily), Eddy (Scott), Sam (Rick), Lancelot (Wayne), and Buddy (Arthur). We focus on narrative, improv, and character building. We may stick our heads in front of a train because that’s what our character would do, and when we look under the bed even the Keeper may not know what we’ll find. We’re crafting a story, creating flawed characters, suspenseful events, and fulfilling revelations. Call of Cthulhu is a horror TTRPG; characters die horribly graphic deaths. It’s for mature audiences, but played by immature people. Find us at https://underthelibrary.com.
