UtLS4E29: Do You Remember Freddy's Name?

On this episode of Under the Library, a Call of Cthulhu Podcast:

Buddy rushes to help Sam, who had collapsed after discovering Cheryl’s absence from the camping group. JD assures Buddy no other groups are currently camping. He suggests Cheryl left Sam on purpose and says they could check the nearby town Deadwood, or perhaps back in Bloodstone.

In the doctor’s office, Lancelot feels confused and his memory is fuzzy. He no longer knows his name and thinks he serves at Bawdy Bill’s. He heads straight there, walks upstairs to former employee Lou Ellen’s room, dons her clothing, and returns to the common room. She’s the focus of attention in the room (but interprets the stares as positive), and orders whiskey while playing a round of blackjack. Randy the foreman approaches Lou Ellen and leads her out into the street. He convinces her to walk with him to the garden, where Lancelot begins to regain his identity.

From above, the cries of a goat interrupt the conversation with JD and then the sounds abruptly stop. Sam shoots into the sky as a large shadowy mass barrels into his side. He feels a rip in his side and falls from his horse as Johnny shoots at the shadow. The muzzle flash reveals a creature, unlike anything they’ve ever seen.

Under the Library, an actual-play Call of Cthulhu podcast, where cosmic horror is steeped in mystery and slathered with self-deprecating humor. Our main storyline, a sandbox created by our Keeper (Michael), is set in (a fictitious) 1942 New Mexico and follows the misadventures of Collette (Emily), Eddy (Scott), Sam (Rick), Lancelot (Wayne), and Buddy (Arthur). We focus on narrative, improv, and character building. We may stick our heads in front of a train because that’s what our character would do, and when we look under the bed even the Keeper may not know what we’ll find. We’re crafting a story, creating flawed characters, suspenseful events, and fulfilling revelations. Call of Cthulhu is a horror TTRPG; characters die horribly graphic deaths. It’s for mature audiences, but played by immature people. Find us at https://underthelibrary.com.
