Nothing in particular happened in this episode, because basically, we were just generating characters. It means that things are pretty sane, as opposed to what happened when we finally started playing.
The demonologist didn't end up joining the game in the end, but anyhoo.

“You only have one problem with this story, and it’s that I don’t believe in Moscow.”
“You don’t believe in Moscow? You can’t not believe in Moscow.”
“Yes you can. I’ve never been! Apart from once that you’re telling me, but besides that, not when I’m remembering, so it might just be a thing on a map. Until you see it. I don’t believe in Seattle either.”

“I haven’t taken the trait, I just smell.”
Mage: “Stay out of view, I’m not licensed to summon you!”
Imp: “Can I eat that?”
Mage: “No, it would damn you eternally.”
Imp: “Bring it! I’ll give you terrible indigestion!”

For next week's post, we'll mostly be playing Deadlands: Hell on Earth!
