The gun moll is officially the worlds worst burglar.

Difficulty of target building? Mud hut.
Chosen method of ingress? Window.
Security level of window? Zero. Literally a hole in the wall.
Guards: two largely oblivious mind-controlled zomboids. On the far side of the building.
Assistance: the rest of the party doing a song-and-dance number to distract the zombies.
Result: WoopsBADUMPHhay-ulpBANGstabbystabby

The great white hunter likes scars. They remind him of what it was like to feel things.
He also has the world’s best shopping list.
Did you know the Finns made a one shot disposable flamethrower in the 1930’s?
Yeah. That’s on the list.

As for ‘bringing the mummy back alive’... we may have missed the boat on that one, because it’s a mummy.

If not actually alive can you bring it back while it is still animated?

They didn’t specify ‘animated’.
Just ‘alive’.
We professional kidnappers call it a ‘Stephen Hawking’ contract.

It’s as if your instructions were simultaneously specific and vague....

Well, sneaking and burglary is the Frenchman’s speciality. The gun moll kills things. Not much sneaking around required when they are dead...

And to be fair, at the time, the Frenchman was ‘otherwise occupied’. I merely attempted to step in and fill his enormous shoes (cue filthy jokes)

If we put it in a box. Like Schrodingers Cat?

A-hah.... science!

“This is dead....”

“It was alive when we put it in there. Should we have put air holes in the lid, maybe?”

Or possibly undead....

Ahh, dynamite, it's a great tool when fighting the old ones. We once literally brought the mountain down on ourselves in a The Masks of Nyarlathotep adventure.

Awesome game tonight! Best part was we got to play Purp’s Hot Asian Doctor chick character on his behalf. Second best part was the Frenchman going temporarily insane when he saw the snake scales growing on his chest. My gun moll was swallowed whole by a 100 foot snake and used a grenade to blast her way out. Awesome Two Fisted Action not two fisted in the sense you mucky lot automatically assume

And the team bonding and collective ethos has got us helping each other, and even saving each other's lives (thanks Randy), as opposed to just watching shit happen and giggling.
