Miskatonic You (It's a pun, or play on words.)
Anyway. I've had a couple days to think about it. I'm thinking we'd be better off as Grad students. As students, we'd be less sedentary, more active. Grad students would still mean we've got mucho brains under our belts, access to University perks and whatnot, and still be old enough to oh, get plastered when we need to.
Student loans. Campus Police. Faculty. Girlfriends. Shambling horrors. The usual kinds of things grad students worry about.
Thoughts?
G.A. said he was aiming at the Theatre department, via the Pickman Art Intstitute. Go to Miskatonic University to get an overview of the campus, including things like student statisics, financial aid, location, tuition, degree programs available, and the colleges that make up the University.
The Orne Language College. Arkham Medical. Pickman Institute. etc.
Anyway, as a Drama student working on his Master's, G.A. would be able to produce and write and direct his own shows (maybe as part of a thesis), have access to props and costumes, possibly even live in the catacombs beneath the stage...possibly even get laid on a regular basis.
I'm leaning toward a Med student. Internship at Arkham Hospital, access to bone saws and speculums, in debt up to my eyeballs.
What?
Sorry, speculi.
Marci's Malkavian character in Dave's Chicago game would fit in just fine at Orne. Toss in a double major with Ancient Languages and Philosophy and she'll be on the fast track to a job at Wendy's.
Some of us could be related...I like the idea of being G.A.'s brother...drama guy and med student...yin/yang. Some of us could be roommates. Either way, we could all be friends. I think this could work pretty well.
Once we get the scene established, we can start tossing in macabre elements...or we could start with some right from the get-go. How about a campus curfew, due to the abduction/murder of half a dozen co-eds. One of them an undergrad who used to sleep with G.A., another one from one of the classes where Dave is a T.A.
My guy, at the hospital, would have access to some unusual autopsy reports, and that could lead...almost anywhere.
We could even set up Ania with a stalker...
Feedback, people.
