Call of Cthulhu Classic RPG | The Auction with Becca Scott

This was so much fun, so happy to have been a part of such a stellar table, led by the indomitable Keeper force that is Becca. 🖤

spends luck to succeed in a flirtatious persuasion/psychoanalysis role "gotta risk it to get the biscuit" X,D this whole session is gold

Becca was actually correct in giving the Madam a dodge roll but not Chaz. He attacked the ghoul and it fought back and eviscerated him, he doesn't get to dodge cause the ghoul is already opposing his attack roll which sadly failed. The ghoul attacked her, so she gets to dodge or fight back like she did. So despite Becca worrying, she actually ruled correctly as far as the 7th edition CoC rulebook is concerned

OMG i love every aspect of this. “It’s an accessory.” “To murder.” 😂

I wanted to point out to folks that this is a really great example of how easy it is to convert older Call of Cthulhu material to 7th edition. Becca has been using 7th for the Calyx and you can see how effortlessly she plays a 2nd Edition scenario here. Call of Cthulhu is not like other games. It is so easy to convert between editions, largely because BRP has been elegant as a system for it's entire lifespan. Don't fall into the trap of thinking that this game was re-booted with every new edition like so many games are! I've been collecting the whole catalogue.

Love that Erika was in Taliesin's campaign and now did one with Becca.

It dawned on me as i was watching: They’re all there in-person! It’s refreshing to see folks around the table again!

That moment when you realize that, in another life, ALL of these investigators were vampires (Victor Temple, Annabelle, Eva and X).

This was my very first time watching Becca GMing, I can safely say that it won't be the last time. She's amazing (the investigators as well obviously, but gotta love an enthusiastic Keeper <3 )

Absolutely love seeing Becca and B Dave play Call of Cthulhu! For those who haven’t checked out The Calyx, Becca’s games are always amazing there as well.

These people play the best snobs. I died of laughter. Great chemistry!

i feel sorry for everyone who hasn't discovered the roleplaying community yet

Becca, you're such a damn good Keeper! You make the flow between storytelling and game mechanics look seamless, it's an inspiration.

Jacques and Jack really are THE versatile tool ! I laughed whole heartedly at this game, it was a real treat. Thanks a bunch !

i need more of this group.....

Josephine is absolute gold in this episode. Her ability to fully embody the character is just next level. I just got done watching her in Graveyards of Arkham and her slow decent into insanity in correlation to her attire was masterful.

They're snorting uncut Louis XIV!

Such a fluidity between all the participants. The role playing, the dialogues, the character immersion it's all just incredibly round here. Thanks for the experience. ❤ The game master's wit, dedication and devotion is a lot of fun!

So enjoyed this energetic group. Feels like a family to be honest
