Title: Limehouse Fog Horror... Report from the scene! More photos page 2!!
Post by: OSHIROmodels on March 28, 2018, 11:34:31 AM
The denizens of the Limehouse docks had no idea that as the fog decended they would be subject to horrors beyond their comprehension...

Our man on the scene managed to get a witnesses point of view from none other than Big Jim Bibbly himself. Please dear reader, excuse his colloquialisms as he is from the north. In his own words...

Me an' the lads was down at the docks as we'd 'eard of sommet about to 'appen. It were a bit foggy out but that dint stop us.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/2619-280318112526-320791188.jpeg)

We'd also 'eard that a few other fellas were about and seeing as us 'oliday to the mainland dint go to well we was looking for a bit of a punch up. Shame that they buggered off somewhere else.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/2619-280318112758-32082792.jpeg)

There weren't nowt much to see with this bloody fog but we could 'ear sommet goin on at the other end of the docks...

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/2619-280318112941-320872026.jpeg)

Well, weren't that a turn up for the books. One of them ruffs that had a pop at us a couple of weeks ago was causing trouble with one of the locals (nice fella, sells fish mostly). We weren't 'aving any of that so I went up and bashed him over the 'ead. Ha ha, he won't be gettin up any time soon.

'Ang on though ses I, 'ere's that Stringvest fella we saw in the graveyard the other month. Sommat funny's goin on 'ere.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/2619-280318112946-32091261.jpeg)

A couple of me lads wanted to 'ave a bash but whist he were grappling with me he manged to see a couple of em off. Right, ses I, I ain't 'aving any o that so I bashed 'im good and proper and just as the fog was clearing so we could see proper he went and vanished...

Dunno what 'appened to them other lads but we could 'ear sommat over the way and reckon it were them up to sommat.



Once again dear reader, we apologise for the strange use of language but it must be forgiven as it would seem that these roughs from the north have saved Limehouse from a hideous fate...

Yep,good bat rep,perhaps now those northern ruffians are spending more time down south they may become more genteel and the obligatory need for Google translate won't be so much of a requirement   ;) :D
Seems like another cracking game lads ,well done  :)

Brandy and cigars or a 1980s era rock clip smoke machine involved in that photo shoot? Either way it is very atmospheric albeit probably a breach of health and safety regulations.

Nope - no lawnmower and no cigars, it's not added digitally either.

It was a state of the art camera accessory that's now got a patent pending so details can't be shared for legal reason  ;)

Fabulous set up, of course  :)

Rather more Dick van Dyke than Michael Caine? Or more Vic Reeves than Ray Winstone?

Someone really should write a set of rules completely in rhyming slang or better still, polari. A hungry market awaits a Kenneth Williams figure.

Brilliant and love the atmospherics from this Dr De'Ath Smoke-A-Vision (Patent pending) Production.

There must have been some use of translation technology, though, as them there Northerners did not mention Pie, Whippet or Sheep once in the narrative.....

Lord Avery knew only too well the reason the fog had descended upon Limehouse so rapidly.... It was no natural occurrence!
The Late Professor Hertz Van Rental had warned him that some of the oldest and most powerful Vampire Lords could somehow harness and control the elements.
Lord Avery knew Count Stringfellow was one such Vampire and he feared it was the Count who had brought fog down on Limehouse to use it to his own advantage, probably cloaking his efforts to increase his coven numbers.
Knowing the Count had lost many of his fledgling Vampires in recent skirmishes Avery assumed he was keen to rebuild his forces. Calling together his most reliable hunters Avery quickly made his way to the Limehouse docks...

He was not wrong, through the fog he could see the Counts Acolytes feeding on the innocent inhabitants of Limehouse. Draining them quickly and removing the bodies in readiness for their transformation into the Undead! Avery would have to work fast!

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-300318111038-321111110.jpeg)

The Vampires however were not alone, guarded by dim witted thugs for whom ahead lay the promise of immortality if they pleased the Master with loyal service unto death...

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-300318111041-321161574.jpeg)

Avery dashed forward and engaged the henchmen in hand to hand combat, quickly despatching them with expert cuts and thrusts from his saber. His time in the Life Guards was not wasted!

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-300318111039-321141582.jpeg)

Avery's Vampire hunters made short work of these Vampire brides cornering and sending them back to hell!

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-300318111042-321171952.jpeg)

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-300318111040-32115404.jpeg)

There had been no sign of Count Stringfellow, Lord Avery and his men had quickly destroyed the only threats they could find, although they knew at least three unfortunates had been taken and would soon return as the Undead. They would need to be found quickly lest they turn more victims.

However Avery heard gunshots elsewhere in Limehouse and the strange dialect and sound of Northerners abroad. Perhaps Stringfellow was in the vicinity after all....

Thus ended our recent run through of A Fistful of Garlic. More to follow.... Will Lord Avery find Count Stringfellow and just who are these Northern ruffians running around Limehouse and what are they doing there?

Well done - shame about all that fog obliterating the view of the figures and buildings but I suppose you can't have everything. ;) :D
