Life in Carcosa is not easy. One day you are slave, next day you are a slaver. One day you ride a dinosaur, next day you are firing an alien laser pistol. And then it can happen that an elderly couple offers you a meal, moved by the fact that you and your buddies are just a bunch of teenagers. Very nice people they are, what a nice couple. No wait! Those fuckers poisoned your meal. Even though you didn’t know those fuckers, they still tried to kill you. As I said, life in Carcosa is not easy.
Let’s see if I remember everything we’ve done so far. People are welcome to contribute and add all the things that I’ve missed out. Here we go!
Uh, please post all the names of your characters, I can remember only a couple!
Chapter 1 – Give us some fucking dinosaurs!
We started off trapped in a slave train in the desert. Not a nice start. But then a bunch of freaky looking cannibals assaulted the convoy, killed the slavers and had a nice human banquet. Those scary cannibals didn’t have the chance to carry on for too long though, as a group of awesome dino-riders appeared and spanked them pretty hard. At that point we knew that all we ever wanted from our ephemeral life was to ride a dinosaur. So we joined the dino-riders .

Their duties, from what I remember, span from killing random baddies (cannibals, slavers etc.) and investigating things in the villages, making sure people venerate the gods they like. Not that we care much about their job… we just want some fucking dinosaurs!

The dino-riders were keen on giving us some of their dinosaurs only if we were capable of impressing them, and so we accepted a quest they proposed: go to a village where, apparently, there’s a particular cult that the dino-riders don’t particularly like and investigate. Right on! They had no idea of the consequences.
So we went to the village and burned it down, spectacularly killing more than 300 people, and smashed the head of some horrible semi-god that lived in a pit by throwing an anvil at him. And then we camped outside, enjoying the huge column of smoke covering the moon. Nothing better than a genocide to start a new campaign. And that’s when those two old chaps appeared, offered us a meal and poisoned us.

They are white and live in the caves somewhere…it’s pretty much all we know! So let’s make sure we don’t forget about them!

We managed to survive this coward murder attempt - says the group of teenagers that killed over 300 innocent people, including women and children…but it’s Carcosa, so fuck it! The dino-riders were well impressed and gave us a few of their docile and tamed Jurassic reptiles. Yay!
