The two robins, Peryton and Noirnevera, and I, showed up to the convention center around 4:30pm, Friday. Went over to see our Ohio gamer friends play
Cthulhu Smurf, got drawn into
Cthulhu over Sesame Street. Ken St. Andre, of Stormbringer the RPG fame, played Grover, AKA SUPER-Grover; his son played Count Von Count; while I played Herry, one of the original Sesame Street 'Blues Brothers.' A guy named Joe played Ernie, and a woman played Prairie Dawn. Another fellow played Cookie Monster of course. Oh yeah the Blues Brothers of Sesame Street consisted of Grover, Cookie Monster, and Herry. The GM, Earl, did a great Lovecraftian-yarn as well as "re-envisioned" Sesame Street. I had a good time and co-won "role-player" of the game.
The Cthulhu-variants were offered up by Amorphous Blob Games. Pretty decent outfit, they run a good gathering. The crowds were not as massive as at GenCon last night, but the convention is right up there in standards and quality. We'll see what it looks like today. We'll look for Nine Hands et al this afternoon as well.
