When the earthquakes stops, the group looks outside and notices a brighter night skys that oddly holds thousands of twinkling lights. After recieving a phone tip, the party jump into a delivery truck and heads to the pier. Frank deftly manuevers around the trafic jam and off roads the truck. Unable to get as close as they would like to, the group climbs up on top of the delivery truck to see what's going on.

They see a metal figure impaled on the statue and a boat near the pier that gets pulled under the water by tentacles. After the boat goes under, the metal figure starts moving itself off of the statue.

Then, Leonard notices a rival photographer slinking away from the delivery truck and tackles him. Steve convinces the photographer to hand over his camera and when they turn their attention back towards the pier, the figure is gone. After surveying the truck and discovering the tire is destroyed, Leonard heads to a payphone and calls the office.

The Crew is mesmerized by the photos of themselves seemingly in the past. The Crew spitballs some different theories of what the books are, but ultimately are unsure of the meaning behind them. While investigating the photos and writings in the books the Crew notices a few things. Clara and Edward appear to get married, Clara has some sort of unchecked power, there is a hint from Darius that Todd needs to be controlled, and a strange cult appears very unhappy about the Crew on SPI.

## Episode Synopsis

This time on Cthulhu & Friends...

Our intrepid investigators are on a white ship plummeting down. When they wake up, they are in a car. After investigating the glove box, they find that the car is manufactured in 1982. A short while after that, they search the trunk and counted their belongings, including the bronze check and the artifacts. After driving down the road they discover they are in Illinois.

Shortly thereafter they head to a gas station to purchase an atlas and provisions. Upon inspecting the back of the milk carton, they discover the time frame is somewhere between November and December of 1985. On the road atlas, they discover a line separates most of the Eastern seaboard and part of Canada from the rest of the United States. It is grayed out and there are no details on the map. With the atlas in hand, they decide to head towards Chicago to peruse a library.

Seeing signs for the Library of Congress, they stop there. After researching what has happened, it comes to their attention that ghouls have taken over and formed a quasi-government on the Eastern seaboard. After relaying the news about the Great Transition, Anya loses her sanity and attacks Xander in a craze of hyper-sexuality. Anya, Erik, and Xander are escorted out of the Library of Congress and get back into the car to find a hotel.

## Story Synopsis

*Please include a synopsis*

Return to Cthulhu and Friends Episodes
Blood Drinker

**Blood Drinker** was a greatsword that both dripped and drank blood. Originally owned by Trant Thumble, Tum "Darkblade" Thumble was assigned by the Darkblades to steal it as an initiation. When the then un-named Ätlän-tã Fælcons found Blood Drinker, it formed an immediate connection with Thom the Dragonborn, who almost didn't give it up. Blood Drinker and Thom vowed to meet again one day and the Darkblades gave the sword to their buyer,Shade Baylish.

At last we heard Trant had tracked down Blood Drinker's buyer and was besieging the buyer's fortress. It seemed likely that he will get his sword back soon.

After coming back from The Crypt of Sinu the Red, Thom the Dragonborn teamed up with Watari and Wren to steal the sword back. They succeeded and for quite a long time, Thom and Blood Drinker were inseperable. It was not until The Battle Above the Abyss, and the death of Thom, that the two finally were parted. Thom's last request was that Jaela, who wanted the sword for herself, chose between it and her very own Pegasus, Princess Ivy Bluemoon. She chose PIBM, and was made to cut off Thom's dick with Blood Drinker, as it was the only thing stronger than Blood Drinker. Both instruments were destroyed down to the hilt. Thom's adopted son, Bucky, kept the hilt, and Thom's petrified tail, to hang on his wall in Deephome.

## Damage

Blood Drinker does 3d8 points of damage. Period.
Darryl

**Darryl the Great Monster of Pelor's Lake** was a terrifying great beast that lived in Pelor's Lake, a half-mile outside Pelor's Hope.

## **Appearance**

Long and snakey, but also has feathers, a beak (but not on his face), primate arms, human legs with boots, and a southern drawl, even though it didn't speak, just growls. Truly a terror to look upon.

## **Episodes**

* Episode 250 - The Return of the Raw Fury Games Part 2
Episode 20 - Gladiator Games

After being captured by Thumble soldiers the gang has to overcome a few obstacles to win their freedom. Tum’s father, Trant Thumble, has some sort of coleseum with scary creatures that host fights for the entertainment of the people. Tum was pitted against the brand new Tum – a horrific minotaur. Hopefully he will get through the help of his friends everything will work out A-OK.

## **Story**

The party wakes up in the dungeons of Castle Greyskull and finally meets Trant Thumble. Trant informs Tum that he has been gone for 6 months and that he had been replaced in the family. Tum is forced to fight and kill a Minotaur Tum Thumble in order to be accepted back into the family. Tum *Sly Flourishes* the guts right out of the minotaur and Trant frees the rest of the party. But then Trant decides that the crowd hasn't been satisfied and unleashes a giant crocodile for the party to fight. Aludra ends up in the crocodile's mouth a bunch and we find out that the party has a very loose grasp of anatomy. This fight continues in Episode 21 - Family Dinner.

Episode 159 - Monkey Business

Things ended rather tragically last time we met…but we are not able to properly mourn our fallen. True heroes are able to push past the pain and find the strength within themselves to continue to be heroes. Sure, all we wanted to do is rest. And cry. And maybe just be alone. But when a demon or something bursts our of your dead friend and attacks a random village it is your duty to save them. That is what makes us heroes.

## **Story**

The demon rises out of Marendithas Bearcharger's corpse and flies away without fucking anyone. The group briefly talks about revivifying Bearcharger again, but no one has any diamonds (except for the customary wedding diamonds for Aludra Wyrmsbane). King Titus Harper finds a note on Bearcharger as they throw his body overboard for a water burial stating that he isn't actually Bearcharger's father and thanking him for all of the shinee rounds (This is non-canonical. Tim Lanning attempted to convince people that Harper was not a cow fucker, but canonically, he was determined to be the father of Bearcharger).

The group leaves Winston in charge of the boat and Harper flies them away towards the island. They find the demon terrorizing a village of monkeys similar to Abu. Harper initiates a powerbomb special with Nyx. After some exchanges of blows, it is revealed that Mike Bachmann is playing an apeling, who looks like a person in a monkey suit, who then casts a cone of cold from its staff. Harper then uses his gust of wind to put out the fire and shoots some rays at the demon. It is eventually felled by a lightning bolt of Harper's which also hits Jaela. The monkey introduces itself (in the next episode).

Episode 158 - A Deep One Rises

Dang. Our friggin beautiful ship is all broke and stranded. Broke like our spirits after we lost a dear crew member. Unfortunately we cannot take a breath or even begin to repair the ship for there appears to be some strange beast rising from the ocean. It looks somewhat like a large “fry kid” but more menacing? Ah, here it goes.

## **Story**

The group fights the large monster encountered at the end of the previous episode (which may or may not be a beholder (it totally is)). Bachmann learns about how to use Marendithas Bearcharger's spells, and holds the beholder. Jennifer Cheek learns about how awesome monks are. In her first turn, Nyx hits with all four attacks doing more damage than Jennifer has ever done. Bearcharger gets hit with a disintegrating ray and then a death ray, which...does what it's name implies. Nyx then punches the beholder into a mist.

After the battle, Jaela kicks Bearcharger with a revivify. Bearcharger gives a long speech to King Titus Harper sharing his feelings and mentioning that he was using his massive intellect to keep the demons in his body at bay. As he is revealing that Harper is his father, he dies again and a demon bursts forth from Bearcharger.

## Episode Synopsis

This time on Cthulhu and friends…

Clem asks Jack to take her to Mason One. Jack refuses. He begins lift off in the medical ship, and the helicopter that was parked on top falls off and destroys one of the ship’s engines. Jack tries to keep the ship stable, but has to set it down before they arrive at Tes’s.

Under the command of Jack, Luna tackles Mary Mason and pins her to the ground. Jack then attempts to absorb Mary’s mind, but it knocked away by Clem. A heated argument ensues about what to do with Mary. Clem backs down, and Jack successfully absorbs Mary’s mind. Mary is reduced to a vegetable, and Luna throws her out of the ship.

Jack summons the Nightgaunts to ferry the party, and Erik’s cryo tube, to Tes’s. The sky is strangely dark and foreboding as they take flight.

Later as they start the descent to their destination, Luna looks over her shoulder and sees a large tentacled creature. She immediately thinks "Cthulhu".

Episode 192 - Mailbageddon

A mailbag episode to address the death of King Titus Harper

## **Trivia**

* Michael DiMauro had intended for the Longcryer storyline to end in the loss of Harper's powers. The storyline sparked the idea because of the conversation between Harper and Jaela where he told her that he would gladly have given everything up to have his family alive and well.
* Originally Adira was going to be involved and would have to choose between keeping his powers or saving his sister.
* Had Harper inoculated himself with his cure, there would have been an opportunity for Harper to regain his powers had he wanted.
* If the party had searched Fezzlan's rooms more, there would have been a diary that would have provided more clues.
* Michael DiMauro did alter the fight with Longcryer due to the death of Harper
* The only two moments where Nika had regretted drinking while playing are destroying Blood Drinker and being too drunk to pick up on what could have saved Harper.
* Harper was around for four more episodes than Thom.
* Michael DiMauro would consider having the party embark on a quest to bring back Harper, however Tim Lanning is not interested.
* The party was able to hear messages from Camille, because she was there as a ghost. That is why her room was cold.
* The death of Harper is also further discussed in depth in November 2016 Episode of The Conductor's Seat, Conductor's Seat Track 3, which is available to Patreon subscribers.

## Episode Synopsis

This time on Cthulhu and friends…

Franks slips off the roof, hears a voice directing him to find a vessel, and hits the ground.

After seeing the people in the neighborhood act strange, Leonard and Mona decide to head back to the newspaper.

Meanwhile Steve hears Alice tumble down the stairs. He checks on her, and she passes out. Steve heads up to the roof to check on Frank.

Frank wakes up in Eliza’s body, and looks around for his presumably dead corpse. Leonard sees Steve on the roof clutching Frank’s camera. Steve tells him that he thinks Frank fell. Leonard and Steve look for Frank, but they are unable to find him.

After meeting back inside the newspaper Steve and Leonard are shocked when little Eliza speaks with Frank’s voice. Suddenly, the song of an ice cream truck starts playing. Frank asks for an ice cream, and so Steve goes out to buy one. A strange old woman in the ice cream truck, acts surprised that Steve can see her. When she opens up the truck there are random trinkets and knickknacks instead of ice cream. Steve spots a copper box, and the woman offers it to him. He takes it back inside, and shows it to Leonard and Frank. Suddenly, the door to the newspaper swings open and the robot from the pier walks in and shuts the door.

Episode 153 - The Battle Above the Abyss Part 3

This hulking horror seems familiar… but how can this be possible? Sure, we know that this fortress would have a few nightmares stored up its sleeve, but this?! No matter. This is just one more obstacle to overcome on our quest to save the world. Naturally, we will not go easy on this monstrosity. Tum would have it no other way.

## **Story**

The gang battles zombies including zombie Tum "Darkblade" Thumble (aka UnTum), who throws shurukens with a sly flourish. In fact, that's the only move he seems to use. He hits Harper with this attack, which results in Harper's lungs to fill with water in a familiar way. Harper straight-up panics and lashes out, using his staff, and strikes at Un-Tum with a lightening bolt and then smashes everyone in the room with thunder damage before passing out.

Aludra also gets hit by UnTum's UnSly Flourish: gushing water from her mouth. She grits her teeth, holds her breath, and advances in the hopes of saving not only Harper, but herself.

Thom cuts down the last of the zombies and sadly walks through the icy water to UnTum's side and says "There's something I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength" as he touches Tum's shoulder. Blood drinker plunges through Tum's chest as the two exchange one last goodbye.

And Harper doesn't die, I guess...

## **Trivia**

* Tum Darkblade has good initiative rolls, even in death
* Over 150 episodes later, and STILL no one can pronounce "shuriken"
* It is confirmed that 5th edition Thom is completely nude
* Mike Bachmann is opposed to railroading regardless of if it helps or hurts him

## Episode Synopsis

This time on Cthulhu and friends…

Tess, who is in Evie's body, and Frank try to find useful lost things. Meanwhile, Leonard finds out that the ice cream truck can drive itself and heads into the back. The group discusses the mirrored boxes and Leonard tells Tess that one leads to Jack Thompson, who she appears to recognize. Suddenly the truck stops just a few feet short of a large cliff. After consulting an atlas, they find that there should have been a large bridge here.

A twig snaps and the group reels around to see Frank's body approaching. A strange voice comes out of it and the man asks if Leonard killed his daughter. He lunges forward, but Leonard bats his hand away with his pick axe. Suddenly the man transforms into a ball of snakes and slithers away.

After starting towards New Orleans again, the group hears a thump from a box. Leonard opens the box and a huge wave of water shoots out nearly filling the truck. A tentacle comes out and grabs Tess and pulls her inside.

Soon afterwards, the truck stops in front of a large house with a mailbox that reads "The Rising Sun." A man in a wheelchair comes out to the truck and Leonard steps out to meet him. After confirming the man, Nigel, is the owner of the house, Leonard grabs his pick axe and starts threatening him.

## Episode Synopsis

This time on Cthulhu and friends…

Jack introduces the group to Tes. After revealing Jack’s machine, Tess explains that she is expecting trouble and that they need to run to the lab.

After getting ready to move out Tes opens the door, and comes face to face with Eddie. He points a large weapon at Tess and fires, killing her. Xander asks for his goggles back, and Eddie directs him to a box in the back of the room. As Eddie gloats over the party, they hear 42’s voice and suddenly Eddie explodes into pieces.

After recovering the key to the box, the group heads to the lab. Jack sets up his machine. Once it is powered up, the environment of the room changes. Jack asks for Xander’s goggles, and after donning them, he sees previously invisible Deep Ones in the room heading for the box. Jack tells Vaeda to return the lantern she just picked up from the bronze box, but she refuses. The group feels an increasing pressure. Vaeda changes her mind and tosses the lantern, but she accidentally steps backwards into a portal that opened and disappears.

Jack manages to catch the lantern, and puts it back into place. However, the increasing pressure immobilizes the party, so Jack asks Harold to help them. Suddenly Jack, Xander, and Luna pass through the station wall, and out into space. From the portal that opened Cthulhu appears and starts moving hurriedly towards them.

The gang finally meets Xander’s mysterious brother, Simon. Things happen with the swear jar! Music by Disparition

## Episode Synopsis

This time on Cthulhu and Friends...

Xander has just called his brother Simon. After confirming his address Xander hangs up. Immediately afterwards the phone rings. Xander answers it. The caller claims to be calling from the Mason Corp, and asks for Anya. After handing over the phone, the woman on the other end explains that Anya is being watched, and disconnects the line. After discussing the call the group notices a suspicious van parked nearby. Anya confronts the driver with a gun drawn, while Xander snatches the keys from the van. The party then safely flees the scene and a short drive later arrives at Simon’s house.

Simon gives the group a warm welcome. Xander explains the recent events, and asks for advice. Simon tells them the true nature of the Mason Corporation, and explains that the corporation can be trusted. Erik asks about Vaeda, and Simon tells the group that Vaeda is actually a celebrity in the Ghoul Sector. The dog nuzzles against Erik and warns him that something is coming. As the group is leaving the house the Dog starts growling and barking at a small bald man walking down the street. After piling into the car, the man starts turning into a mass of tentacles. As Erik hits the gas and pulls away from the house he notices several other men that look exactly the same as the bald man they just saw. The party runs into a police barricade a short while later. The police inform them that Shoggoths have been sighted all over the city. Xander manages to get the man to tell him the location of a Mason Corporation helicopter pad, and Erik speeds off towards it.

Once they arrive at the Mason Corp building, they see a Mason Agent get killed by a Shoggoth. Erik manages to grab the agent’s walkie talkie, and orders a helicopter to land at the building. Xander rushes to unpack the bags from the car, and runs with them into the building. Anja freaks out from seeing the Shoggoth up close and hides behind the car. The Shoggoth lunges towards Anja, however with an odd twist of luck the helicopter locks onto the Shoggoth and launches a rocket. The rocket hits the Shoggoth and spreads gore and tentacles everywhere. The group loads into an elevator within the building and head for the roof. They immediately jump in to the helicopter and it takes off towards the Ghoul Sector.

After a long flight they land in what appears to be the old Boston University. They are met at the Helipad by Anya’s old colleague, Akmahl the Demonologist. After exchanging pleasantries, Xander demands to know that the heck is going on, and if there is a plan for them. And that is where we left the Investigators.

## Episode Synopsis

This time on Cthulhu and friends…

The group searches through Steve's house and finds another mirrored box. Then they gather up Steve's writings and head to the newspaper. 42 greets the party after they arrive. After showing 42 the writings, she explains that they need to find the dark-haired woman in the picture to help translate. Suddenly, an ice cream truck drives by. Leonard heads out to get ice cream, but he is offered lost things by the strange woman in the truck. After discussing the missing person, the woman hands Leonard a photo of a red-haired woman named Tes. Leonard asks for help finding her, and the old woman hands him a map. The group prepares for a road trip to New Orleans, but Mona and 42 stay behind. While stopped on the side of the road, Evie and Leonard experiment with the mirrored boxes by dropping coins in them. One box returns a business card and stick of gum. The other box returns a receipt with a message. Excited by this find, Evie tries lowering a shirt in the box and nearly gets her arm stuck. Later on, on the road, Leonard hears the box rattle. They pull off to the side and he finds a gun inside. Then he sends a pen and a piece of paper through. After a moment, he gets a note back reading: "We are Xander and we're floating in space. Please help."
