Thread #02 Lean Winter on the TundraPrevious Thread: >>97090196Welcome to /un0/, an RP thread for playing a World of Darkness/Chronicles of Darkness Hunter. For any OOC questions about WoD/CofD, check the official general. >>97224887Rules:>We are acephale. There is no storyteller, we are not a quest.>This thread is based primarily but not exclusively in the nWoD/CofD game Hunter: the Vigil. However, Vigil is defined by being highly setting agnostic, with a system for creating entirely custom monsters that do not exist in other WoD/CofD games. Thus, you have significant freedom in what you want to play and what you want to hunt. Feel free to play a member of the Society of Leopold, or a member of the Lucifuge hot on the tail of a Lasombra.>Namefagging is encouraged but by no means mandatory.>Keep in mind that even highly experienced Hunters typically only have fractured pieces of the puzzle, and every table has their own canon. The night is dark and full of misinformation.>/un0/ is conceived of as an experimental end to end encrypted program that is very hard to compromise, retains very little data and purges that data regularly. Please play an actual Hunter.>Spoiler any OOC discussion.Happy hunting. Unless this thread somehow takes off like a rocket, this will be the last un0 thread for the foreseeable future. Towards the end of the thread, please give your feedback in regard to these shorter, limited run RP threads.
As always thank you for your work in these trying times Net0. I hope your whale hunting has been going well? I'm going to try to see if I can finish my book nearish to the end of the week in time for my initiation. Should be nice to be in Europe again, though Normandy isn't fully my favorite. Hopefully, I can get some insight to impress upon the lads with my book. Though, I'm surprised there's no thread question but then again I assume there's probably not much need given we're going a bit slow. Thanks regardless.
Thank you, once more, for maintaining this communication line, Net0. I do hope your expedition proved fruitful. I have been cleaning up the cabin after dealing with my beast, and the locked room that confounded me has been breached revealing a corpse in a script circle. The corpse is exhibiting signs of early decay but the script is proving to be a most interesting puzzle. I believe it might be an older form of cyrillic.[spoilers]Thanks again and I'll do my best to remember near the end.[/spoiler]>>97227153I missed the chance to ask previously, but in spite of your little entity intruder, have you gotten the chance to test what you have learned?
>>97227153>>97226645Yeah, the last few days have been quite something. I've been fighting an infection I got on the last hunt.So we find this ship crewless, floating. Cyrillic name, oбильный, apparently it translates to "bountiful". Normal russian fishing boat, not out of the ordinary in these waters. I strap on the go pro and get my gun, we split into three teams. One goes below, one stays on the deck of the fishing boat, and one stays on our deck so nobody can sabotage or take it. The place looked bad, some blood stains on the deck, signs of a struggle. Down below was cleaner, but still real eerie. Everyone's gone, and whatever did it was smart enough to turn off their transponder, demolish the radio, and turn out the lights. I'm recording everything I can and trying to determine if the ship itself was a front, pretty sure it wasn't, when we hear a gunshot from up on the deck. Below team rushes up to see a half-dozen humanoids, dripping wet, straight out of the freezing Bering Sea rushing our boys. Good news is, bullets seem to work just fine on them. I nail one in the chest and it goes overboard, doesn't come back up. Then another hunter, guy I didn't know very well screams like hell. There's a squid wrapped around his neck biting deep with its beak. Someone rips it off and it starts running on its tentacles across the deck. I shoot it and it explodes, then one of the humanoids bowls into me. I got a good look at it. He used to be human, but his face is all fucked up. Webbed fingers too, and a weird scaley rash. Reviewing the gopro footage, he had a cyrillic tattoo, probably one of the fishermen. One of my cellmates takes a boathook to its eye and drags it off of me. The survivors all bail but the guy who got bit in the neck bleeds out, we couldn't stop the flow that thing chewed straight through his carotid.
>>97227453Then the boat rocks. We're all retreating back to our boat to bid a retreat and I shit you not I have footage of a massive tentacle arising out of the sea. I'm talking kraken size. We get the hell out of there, shooting the tentacles as we start speeding back towards land. During the escape I slipped and cut my hand like a motherfucker on something metal, real embarrassing way to take a hunting injury. Infection has me holed up, but I should be fine long term, and we want to keep our heads down after that anyway. Still, can't sleep well. Trying to figure out how to kill the kraken and its pelagic zombie servants. My cred in Net0 is going to shoot up from all this good footage but I feel pretty hollow about that. Getting the information out there is important, but I'm concerned more with the practical threat this thing poses. That's what's been up with good ol' GNP. hope you all are having a better time of it out there. honestly I find TQs a little immersion undermining for an RP thread like this.
>>97226968>an RP thread for playing a World of Darkness/Chronicles of Darkness Hunter.>>>/qst/ is that wayAnd this sort of threads weren't allowed even before /qst/ became a thing anyway
>>97227453>>97227460Goodness, that is certainly a dreadful discovery. Were you able to learn anything about the start of the attack? Shame about the infection but that is certainly some excitement you got. I suppose if the kraken sticks to that one area, and you took some remains, you could find a mystic to lay a curse or three on it. Wither it to death and all that.
Seance was performed by the others while I kept eyes on the town, made one hell of a breakthrough. Woman we found, she was exploring the woods for fun and stumbled upon the enfield horrors' lair. Tried to run away, they got her before she could make it to town. Strike team's going to clean out the lair today. If the monster's not at home, they'll set up some traps and wait for it to come back. About time we go on the offensive. Meanwhile, myself and a few others will hang back here in town, watch for feds and just in case the beast decides to come back here.
