Just a random fact, the magic powder is called "Nfsi Al Haya" which is roughly "Breath of Life" in Arabic. So Tessaily was literally breathing life into his pieces.

Holy crap. That is an awesome detail. Thanks for sharing.

[@edc5378]

That's interesting, in Hebrew the sentence you wrote translates pretty much to the same thing only slightly different: "My soul into/on to animal. The Hebrew words for breath and soul are very similar: Soul- Nfshi Breath- Nshfi I wonder if the similarity between the two is also present in Arabic. P.S. Also the words animal and life are very similar: Haya- animal Hayim- life The H needs be pronounced with the back of the throat sound If this would inspire Seth's writing in any way I'd be extremely glad 😁

That conversation between Seth and Jack about dark purple versus ultraviolet light was so well done.

The magical glass thing reminds be if this short story I read in highschool. It's about a boy who looks through the different colored shards of glass of a window he broke and when looking through them he sees one of his grandmother's tenets (she's running a boarding house) as some kind of vampiric monster. So he sneaks into the guys room while he's taking a nap and cuts him open and pulls out all of his weird vampire organs. It's left kinda ambiguous whether or not the guy was actually a monster or whether the kid was just a little psycho. Super lovecraftian through.

[@WoobooRidesAgain]

If you want to look up a neat type of glass that's sort of like what's being described in this module, check out Vaseline glass, also known as "uranium glass" or "radium glass". Its standard name comes from the yellow color of the glass in normal light, and the others because part of the process of their creation involved mixing small amounts of uranium dioxide in with the glass. When exposed to an ultraviolet light, the glass' radioactive particles will start to glow a bright, neon green color. Vaseline glass was originally made in the 1920's, but production stopped in the mid-1940's after the U.S government confiscated all uranium for the war effort. They tried bringing it back in 1958, but the now much higher cost of uranium made it impractical. In fact the way they describe the glass being made and the way it's said to glow under its own light makes me wonder if the module writers weren't inspired by Vaseline glass when they wrote it.

[@marthachampagne316]

my thought was chuck stones at the sprinklers to activate them, there should be enough fiddly bits in a sprinkler head for that to work. also lots of plants have more than one name and some of them are kinda odd. have some of the plants called by one of its stranger pseudonyms and suddenly the pc's are trying to steal some guys pants while looking for 'old mans breaches'. it may not be a thing to use to often for any particular group but herb lore can provide a surprising amount of red herrings. could make a realy interesting idea for failing a pushed roll.

English is not my primary, so sorry in advance fo dreadfull grammar. What about fire extinguishers? Regulations in modern times are wery strict about use of hasardous tech (like glass furnases) without planty of them nearby... So... how will Statues react on big clous of hipercooled CO2 or heat-sucking foam?

[@SSkorkowsky]

Depends. Fire extinguishers are more about removing oxygen from a fire, either through CO2 or smothering with chemicals (often powders) than they are about sucking out heat. CO2 does come out cold, but whether that would be enough to cool the molten glass enough to cause damage or fully destroy a walker before the coldness dissipates is up to the GM. It might take several rounds of blasting a sculpture with CO2 to equal what a single bucket of water could do. Or if in the case of chemical extinguishers, they might not hinder the walkers at all. A GM could say that a an extinguisher could inflict X damage per round but be fully spent after X uses, and then before the game note where all the extinguishers are located. They could also have multiple types, such as the extinguishers around the furnace are CO2 and effective against the sculptures, while those stationed around the building are chemical and cause less or no damage.

Architectural comment: Don't really see an obvious sprinkler room, FDC, or mechanical room somewhere on that plan. Something like that would require some big mechanical stuff to maintain two separate biomes. It'd all be kludged on, though, considering 100 years. Also would be tempting to create this whole huge fire hazard of the scenario as hot molten glass guys just barge after the PCs and ignore the plants they're setting on fire, but that might be too much.

I am sure that sprinkler heads do work in unison. If on goes several in the loop will go. it is from the loss of pressure. The glass bulbs are al held in place by the kinetic water pressure. As soon as one goes and the water starts to flow; the pressure in the others is low enough for those to drop out. I have actually witnesses it (not exactly first hand). At a place I was working and repairmen knocked the bulb out of one sprinkler but every sprinkler in the room started soaking the room.

[@SSkorkowsky]

Depends mostly on the adventure itself. But first, make the villains into a Pulp Villains (boosted HP, Special Abilities, Luck spends, etc.) increase the number of threats (more mook cultists, add an appropriate new monster or badguys where they fit) such as "Now the old house has a guardian the badguy summoned to protect this place". Many of the older CoC scenarios or the now-discontinued-but-not-impossible-to-find Goodman Games 'Age of Cthulhu' adventures can be converted super easy, as they were already a little too tough for a regular group. I've converted a good number of CoC modules for Pulp, and most still feel exactly like a CoC adventure with some appropriate threat increase to make up for the PC's upped HP and abilities. Some I might add more pulpy elements like weird science, but only when it makes sense and doesn't feel forced in.

Seth! I recently convinced my Wednesday night 5e D&D group to try other systems. I want to make sure I get this right, we are gonna switch between our legacy 5e game and new stuff every other week ish. After Pathfinder 2e and Starfinder what would be the easiest system to learn after that?

[@SSkorkowsky]

Honestly, that depends on what it is you and your players want and enjoy. For my group, we prefer Skill-Based games (Call of Cthulhu, Traveller, etc.) but many gamers prefer Level-Based games (D&D). So pretty much anything I recommend will be Skill-Based, which will be far removed from what you're used to and might not be to your group's personal tastes. There's also genres and mood. We go for things like horror, mystery, and highly lethal combat. We lean more toward non-classical fantasy settings, from early 20th Century to Sci-Fi. Ease of learning is also tricky to judge. Most modern games (or at least modern editions of old games) are pretty easy to learn, but all have their own complexities. For example, 5e D&D is pretty simple, but once you start adding all the spells and special abilities and all that, it can become difficult for some players, and even more GMs who can feel overwhelmed with a whole lot at once. So for many sci-fi games, the base rules can begin pretty simple, but then once you start adding space combat and tech to the mix, it can add up on you pretty fast. Others can adapt to it instantly and never see it as complicated at all. Again, it all depends on what you and your group enjoy and what you consider difficult to learn. My recommendation is to check out free quickstarts of different games. Call of Cthulhu has one, as do RuneQuest, Conan (they have 2), Achtung! Cthulhu, and many more. Check them out, give them a spin, and if you and your group enjoy that, then you can look into investing money into the full rules (I have reviews for all of those, except Acthung! Cthulhu, if you want to see more about those free quickstarts). Quickstart rules are pretty good about walking you through the basics and easing GMs and players through it. I find them pretty great for learning new games.

If you want it to continue on with the players after this adventure, the players order through newspapers or a actual news tv. Strange magic that affected The Glasshouse also effect every other glass in a 5 kilometres, this could lead to several mythos and Mundine cases for the players to continue

Any interest in Modipius' Achtung! Cthulhu 2d20? I'd like to see you do a review!

[@SSkorkowsky]

I played a demo game of it for ModCon last December and picked up the free Quick Start adventure. It's a cool setting, but the biggest hangup I have about it is the 2D20 system, which isn't my favorite.

@@SSkorkowsky Copy that, (Try the FATE version)

[@NefariousKoel]

@@SSkorkowsky - I still have the CoC 6th Edition/Savage Worlds version. Perhaps you should look around for those since the 6e is a fairly easy conversion to 7e. Probably going to be numerous used copies floating around at a decent price. I like the 2d20 system, but I already have the essentials for two other systems so wasn't going to bother switching. Not even sure I'll get a chance to run AC anyway.

Have you ever played or covered any Deadlands content?

[@Zirbip]

There should be a Cthulhu adventure about the gross sprinkler pipe water!
