Session #7 - August 5, 2000
"Wow, first time playing and he's already nuts.... Are you sure Early's not around here somewhere?" -- William Hollis

In game time: August 22, 1924
The Victims: Nick, William, Eric, James
Summery: A mysterious package is delivered to the office which causes the secretary to scream and faint.  Inside is a monsterous head mounted on a plaque.  Originally the package came from Rosslyn St. Claire.  Eric quickly determines thanks to an inscription that the head is most likely Baphamut, a demon that the Knights Templar were rumored to get wisdom from.  A Frenchman named Jean Clairvaux arrives and claims the package was intended for him, but was accidently sent to the office.  When the investigators refused to turn over the head he attempted to bribe them with checks for $50,000 each.  James wants to take it, but William still refuses.  Claivaux leaves his card and the investigators continue to examine the head.  When James says "Hullo? Hullo?" to it, the head wakes up and responds senting Eric into terror.  Nick tries again, asking it another question and when it responds the terror sends him into a catatonic shock.  Eric locates a refrence to a Rosslyn St. Claire as an actress in Hollywood, but cannot get in touch with her through her agency.  James asks the head for her phone number and he collapses when it responds.  At this point William locks the head up so no one can ask it questions.  The Rosslyn St. Claire in Hollywood doesn't know anything about it.  After everyone revives, they decide to take the head to the club and get rid of it.  They're not allowed into the actual club, but Clairvaux writes checks out for each of them.  The head is turned over to them, and no one except James takes their check.  James's check bounces anyways proving just how evil Clairvaux was by intentionally passing bad checks.

Most Valuable Character: William for locking the head up where it wouldn't do any more damage
Biggest Blunder:  "Hullo? Hullo?"
