playback was okay , and also Call of Cthulhu: The Fall Without End

we talked about payback, and stuff

Also, since the Call of Cthulhu game was not recorded I will type out a summary below.

see, right below!

  The year is 1931, and our heroes were mountain climbers in a race to the summit of Mt McKinley. There were three teams: Blank and Sunsweet, IBeforeE and StrikingYak, and Oatgan and myself. There was prize money involved, because the United States government needed heroes to inspire people during the Great Depression.

  The night before climbing, they discovered a local team of three brothers had set out before them and already had a day's head start, not to be outdone by outsiders. There were two main paths up the mountain: the difficult climb and the easier climb. Oatgan and I decided on the more difficult climb while everyone else took the easy path.

  Minutes into our climb, we encountered one of the brothers. He was crazed and snowblind, attacking anything that moved, including us. He was taken down with a rifle shot, and we were unfazed - hey, we rolled well. The rest of the climb before we reached the cloud line was mostly uneventful, except for Blank and Sunsweet finding a dead body. It was the second brother, his head being attached by a thread and one arm completely missing. IBeforeE and StrikingYak decided this would be a great opportunity to get ahead of Blank and Sunsweet.

 The real fun started at the overhang and Wickersham's Wall. We all encountered VERTIGINOUS HORRORS!! Nine foot worms the size of tree trunks that scale mountains with nightmarish speed were now on the hunt. I took one out by digging my axe into it, jumping off the mountain, and letting go of the axe while praying my partner Oatgan had anchored the rope. At Wickersham's Wall the climbers were met with a Vertiginous Horror, and then a second, and then a third... The teams split up in an effort to not get eaten or knocked off the mountain.

  As we are all nearing the top, Oatgan and I encounter the beginnings of a storm. I succumb to the elements and collapse, forcing Oatgan to carry my unconscious body to the nearest shelter, which was a nearby cave with a totally-not-suspicious blue light emanating from it. On the other side of the mountain, IBeforeE and StrikingYak find dozens of the Vertiginous Horrors and IBeforeE gets the idea to cause an avalanche and anchor himself to try and clear the way. Somehow, this works and they find their way to a totally-not-suspicious cave.

   Inside the cave, shit happens.

-Yak kills me with a grenade, while Oatgan sneaks away
- Blank and Sunsweet enter the cave last, and discover Niel and Yak covered in my gore
- Oatgan, after sneaking back, shoots IBeforeE and blows his head clean off, and reaches the summit first
- The last brother is found at the summit, his wrists slit and his body frozen.
- I forget why, but Blank stabs Sunsweet in the throat
- Yak uses IBeforeE's corpse like a sled and rides down the mountain and makes it to the bottom first, claiming prize money and fame. I did not prepare for this, but fuck it I can roll with it.
- Blank and Oatgan partner up because they are the last two people left on the mountain, so they investigate the mysterious blue light inside the cave.

  Inside the cave, they find the walls and ceiling absolutely covered with the vertiginous horrors and in the center of the room is an obsidian obelisk above a pool of what looks like motor oil. They decide to dive into the pool, and come out on the other side. In front of them is an alien world populated entirely by the vertiginous horrors. Out of place stars and the planet Earth are in the night sky, and there appears to be no discernible way to get back to the mountain.

Hope you enjoyed the read and sorry you couldn't listen. This was definitely the most fun session yet!
