ts Sp o S:

• Determine which skill applies to the Test.• Determine your Base, which equals the skill’s associatedAttribute.• Determine your Dice, which equal the skill’s level of Exper -tise, in addition to any bonus dice from Specializations.

ts Sp tw S:

• Your Storyguide will determine what the Degree and Difculty is for the Test.• The Difculty is the number that you have to beat on your Test to succeed.

ts Sp t S:

• Roll the dice you’d determined in Step One, trying to get ahigh roll.• You can take the highest single roll.• You can take the highest set of multiples and add them alltogether.• If you get to roll three or more dice, you can take the largest straight and add those dice together.• Watch out for ones, because they can make bad thingshappen.

ts Sp S:

• Add the result of your die roll to your Base. This is your Test Result.• Compare your Test Result to the Difculty.• If your result ties or beats the Difculty your Character suc-ceeds.• If your result is lower than the Difculty your Character fails.

t k CthulhuTech m g– they’re combat modiers, skill, and dumb luck all rolled upinto one. The ability of every Character in the game to havean unlimited opportunity to defend against most attacks is asimulation of all of these factors. The skills represent environ-ment as much as everything else. Instead of giving you listsof modiers for combat situations you just get to keep onmaking defense rolls. So remember, as cool as it might look your Character isn’t actually dodging bullets when he uses hisDodge skill – he’s minimizing the chance that he’ll be shot by capitalizing on the environment and whatever luck the godshave given him today.

that the Eldritch Society needs you to undertake a critical mission tonight.

The Society recently stole a powerul magical artiact rom the Chrysalis

Corporation in Ireland. The Orthanach Stone, as it is called, is arriving

via shipping container in the care o a courier – a Phantom Tager known

as Glass. You’re to discreetly meet Glass at the Port o Chicago at 10:00

PM tonight and escort him and the Stone to an Eldritch Society saehouse

near Northwestern University. I everything goes according to plan, it’ll be

an early night – but how oten do things go according to plan.”

Personally, I don’t think he’s just weird. I think he’s ull-blown obsessive.

“Over several dates are Tareda’s latest series o journal entries. It takes a

while to go through all o them, but you nd several important details in and

among the musings and personal thoughts. It turns out that it was Taredawho recruited Abernethy to assist with the deciphering o the Orthanach

Stone. The two had met in academic circles in and around Northwestern

University and hit it o quickly. Tareda comments on how immediately

comortable he was with Abernethy and how the two seemed to connect on

a deep level. Discovering Abernethy’s natural talent or research and the

practice o magic, Tareda believed that the man would make an excellent

addition to the Eldritch Society. He began the recruitment process and

ultimately brought Abernethy into the old. It ’s been less than a year since

this all began and Abernethy has barely been let into the Society, privy only

to its most surace secrets or now. Tareda seems beside himsel that his

riend is now a true colleague.

Though it’s written between the lines throughout, Tareda nally admits to

his attraction to Abernethy. The Nazzadi seems surprised at his desire or a seemingly straight amily man, as he’s been pretty much asexual or a long

time. Abernethy’s dedication to his amily is what prevented Tareda rom

saying anything. However, it turns out that Abernethy’s wie went missing

about a week ago and the police could nd nothing that suggested oul

play. Tareda did what he could to console his devastated, yet withdrawn

and distant, riend.

The last journal entry states that Tareda had invited Abernethy over

tonight. He was planning on sowing the seeds that he elt might lead to

something more intimate in their relationship.”
