Into the West: Let's Play Oregon Trail II

[xp194]

Agreed. Sell off one or two of the dead animals and buy salt. Then ford any more wounds with salt.

[Flickerdart]

He was probably fighting off the bears. Better use that antiseptic, just to be safe.

[spectralphoenix]

Apply alcohol to the wound. That way, when the vampires attack him first because he's covered in blood, they'll get drunk and be easy prey for the rest of the gang.

Though seriously, why is applying antiseptic an option? I'm pretty sure people didn't catch on to the idea that washing your hands before sticking them into an open wound was a good thing until the 1860's.

Future knowledge.

Check the concussion one too.

[xp194]

So, yeh. Anyone amazed that we've only lost 1 person of the whole group? Seriously. I think all of us are now travelling on sheer willpower/mortal fear of vampires.

[Fri]

So, yeh. Anyone amazed that we've only lost 1 person of the whole group?

And I'm not even entirely sure about that. The afromentioned person sure give a lot of advice for a dead body.

[The Glyphstone]

And I'm not even entirely sure about that. The afromentioned person sure give a lot of advice for a dead body.

Hence our fear of vampires...

[Zarah]

We decided to treat his wounds with antiseptic, and then move on. However, we didn't make it far before Anatharon's problems were brought to my attention again.

[RS14]

Do you mean to propose that we tinker with this poor man's health? We don't even know what this aliment is. It would be pure malpractice to attempt cures with our current knowledge.

Continue as usual.

[xp194]

Pour antiseptic on it and ford it. No pain, no gain.

[spectralphoenix]

Well, if he's bleeding, that means he still has blood, so it wasn't a vampire attack. Probably a werewolf then, or else Aragehaor's angry spirit possessing another caravan member and stabbing him in his sleep.

Give him some of that "antiseptic" you got from the nice man with the big blue box.

Future knowledge.

Check the concussion one too.

I'm pretty sure they had both laudanum and camphor back then, even if using either of them to treat a concussion probably isn't a great idea.

[Starbuck_II]

I say leeches for the bleeding, cut him and drain him for reddening, and olive oil for the pain.
Or just continue as normal: it might just be his time of the month (jk).

If he sees the angry ghost of Aragehaor, it was ghost attacks. If the ghost encourages him to commit suicide?

Werewolf of London. Shoot him in the head.

Otherwise, it was probably ninja loansharks. Who can be ignored for now.

[ZeroNumerous]

Yes, but they didn't know what a concussion was. The modern brain anatomy is still poorly understood today, nevermind the understanding of the 19th century.

Dress the wound up in a little girly girl dress. And tell him to suck it up.

is this what it comes to? You all think i would do such a thing as kill another member of this wagon? Nothing could be further from my mind i assure you!

The thought of ending one of your lives is just Horrible! I would never DREAM of ending your lives!

[ZeroNumerous]

The thought of ending one of your lives is just Horrible! I would never DREAM of ending your lives!

It's much more fun to torture the living than the dead!

[Zarah]

That is all.

[Aragehaor]

That is all.

Dont worry Anatharon, being a ghost has its perks.



For example. you can take you revenge agaisnt the people in this wagon by whispering horrible Great advice in there ears! they follow it most of the time too!




EDIT: Also. i didnt get a burial. So he doesnt get one either. Carry on.

[chiasaur11]

Unknown ailment?

Funeral, if that's code for "Decapitation followed by incineration."

Otherwise?

Run.

[AgentPaper]

Ah, yes, definitely...uh, whoever shot him with a shotgun must have been possessed. Er, thus clearing them of all charges, right? So there's no reason to try and find out who did it.

>.>

<.<

Hey now! im the only ghost here! (Well. i was the only ghost here.) and i take offense that you think that i'd use a shotgun to kill him, worst of all you think i'd possess you? horrible! have you ever SEEN the insides of your body?
Disgusting.


It was probably the vampires and there mind control.

[Teron]

Bury him face down so he just digs himself deeper when he comes back to life; it's an anti-vampire trick I read about somewhere.

What? I've, uh, always been here. Just... with another wagon. Yeah.

[Isak]

*Cough* MURDERER! *Cough*

I say we bury him... Can't leave them all rotting in the dirt...

[xp194]

We have a ceremony with the dead on this wagon.

Dump the body, then ford it. Onwards!

[Zarah]

Although a few people protested, we dropped Anatharon at the side of the road, then quickly moved on. It was by no means anything personal, but we couldn't risk him turning into a vampire... Or worse. As we continued, we kept our eyes to our backs, just in case.



Nothing. We were safe, for now. Maybe all the talk about supernatural creatures were just legends after all. Maybe there was nothing to fear...



But for the moment, we had more pressing matters.

[arguskos]

Why even ask. FORD IT LIKE YOU'VE NEVER FORDED BEFORE!

[Aragehaor]

Caulk it. Caulk it and float. I shall be this wagon fleet's Admiral, and we shall rule the waves! everyone knows vampires cant swim!


*dons Admiral's hat and Uniform hopefully.*

[ZeroNumerous]

Ford that sucker like the fist of an angry god!

[xp194]

Ford! Vampire Roadkill!

[The Dark Fiddler]

Float! Float over the river! We shall show that we aren't just some one trick pony!
