Stargirl Macbain Journal November 7

Journal, Mr. Underby is not nearly so interesting as he might seem. Sometimes he gazes into his mirror, other times he simply sits and reads. He does have a lovely fireplace, however, which I get to spend long hours lounging around in front of. I cannot help but wonder if he is up to anything at all, certainly I haven't heard anything that would indicate that. I did follow him around the city the other day (up until he kicked me!) but again, he didn't seem up to much except an evening strol… Continue

Stephen Journal one "What am i?"

When I was 14 I was a right little rotter that cared little for other, but memory of my family vanished on the day that something struck my head with enough force to kill. It was during a bank robbery I know. I was a wolf for 6 years I remember that I was a detective chasing Ashiko Kureo; who at the time ruled the police force under Oblenskie's reign. After nasty pains pierced my legs, and one in my chest I changed once more that is all I remember as a wolf. Then I was a fox, with beautiful whit… Continue

Victor Journal Entry - The Mysterious Man

So here was me, at my lab frying eggs ontop of the console for my tea doing very important research into heat transferance from the power arcs on the new console *cough* when the mysterious stranger appeared again, Mr Darkfold. No one knows much about him, he appeared in New Babbage before the spate of murders started, and just seems to...wander around. He has a big emphasis on wandering around the academy grounds for some reason, probably due to the large concentration of people there m… Continue

Nightshade A bad day in Clockhaven.

Something is feels wrong today. I woke this morning sensing a large shift of power in or near Clockhaven. At first I thought nothing of it until I went down to my workshop in Clockhaven. The alchemic shield around my shop that I placed to keep Underby out was weaken. My first thought was that the it was caused by the dead magic zone itself. So it was a simple matter of recharging the magic energy in my workshop. I went down to to the old abandond power station to to transmute more of that electr… Continue

Charity McAuley The Research Journals of Miss Charity McAuley, 7 November

Paid visit to Capalini Fine Furnishings today. Absolutely exquisite items which capture both the essence of steampunk, and the finer points of the Victorian era. Certainly a connoisseur's treasure, but for now, a few simple purchases for my workshop. I will be coming back for that delightful Musical Orchestra when both prim allotment and finances allow! I returned to my place of initial arrival in New Babbage t… Continue

Victor Dear Uncle McAndrews... Full Power At Last!

Hello Uncle. I hope that preserved Wiggyfish arrived safley on the shores of Scotland, i think it was the same airship pilots who bomb dropped the spruce you sent me that took the wiggyfish. Anyway, as you know, the experiments in Fullarton House has been constantly hampered by the lack of a really good stable power source. I've tried everything, tapping into the natural semi heavy water abundant in this part of the city, using high pressurised steam turbines, using a miniature version of the… Continue

Scrooge Copperfield Journal 1 "Soup Kitchen"

After the passing of my old parter Marley I brought my business to the city of newbabbage, and started my own Money lending business. With christmas over a month away means this is perfect timing! (Harvest time for the money lenders) As it happens miss Mara; the owner of the soup didn't know that the hostel used to belong to a man who was in debt to me, and since she bought the business she bought the debt. What a sad story for the Urchins, but my taxes go towards the prisons and the workhouses… Continue

Skyler 'Artful Dodger' Gant Caught again by Gloom. (Journal Entry)

((Private journal entry but feel free to comment.))
Journal Entry
6th, November 188X
Cor, well ain’t this wonderful? Like a poor man finding gold and blowing it all on booze, this is. I got kidnapped alongside Red, we’re idiots for thinking he was going to take us to Will and let us save him. That’s like saying “If you close your eyes and believe, your wishes will come true.” It doesn’t happen exactly how you want it, I reckon. He plopped us both in a

Charity McAuley The Research Journals of Miss Charity McAuley, 6 November

Yesterday I had the pleasure of arriving in the lovely city of New Babbage. My research has brought me to this fine community, an apparent hub of steampunk invention, fashion, and social events. While my initial purpose here was a short-term research project for training in my current education of jewelry crafting, I do believe I have found a home in this small corner of the world, rich with inspiration. My intention is to use this 'blog' to track my travels, all of my points of interest, rese… Continue

Alfred Rajesh The Poet's Love-Song

The Poet's Love-Song In noon-tide hours, O Love, secure and strong, I need thee not; mad dreams are mine to bind The world to my desire, and hold the wind A voiceless captive to my conquering song. I need thee not, I am content with these: Keep silence in thy soul, beyond the seas! But in the desolate hour of midnight, when An ecstasy of starry silence sleeps And my soul hungers for thy voice, O then, Love, like the magic of wild melodies, Let thy soul answer mine across the seas. Written by… Continue

Gizzzy Allen diary of an automoton

Mr. Footman has brought his airship to the plant, and has given me permission to live inside it! since Miss Aya quit after her time as a zombie, and would not captian any more of his ships. I'll admit, despiteall the teasing that Grendel didn't own a bed, I wasn't too sure myself, having never needed sleep, but I did put a bed in in case there's any guests, along with some cushions, I actuall don't have much furniture, and did not want to weigh down the ship too much. sadly, my self winding cabi… Continue

Stargirl Macbain Journal November 5

Journal, Success! I have reached the inner sanctum and am now privy to information not easily gathered other ways. Yes, I acknowledge, I will probably be caught eventually. But I can't be bothered worrying about that now. Right now I am worried about Skye, he was mentioned today and I would be beside myself if something were to happen to that obnoxious boy. Still, I have passed the warning along through a semi-trustworthy source, hopefully he will get it. Mr Footman will be interviewed by… Continue

Tinus Koskinen Yellow Ribbon and Strange Dreams.

Journal Entry - Fifth Day of November in the Year... Three days since Clockwinder relieved to me of his love. I have yet to accomplish my task. I am not without hope, I did get a clue. Over coffee and tea, with all of the discretion I could muster, I learned from Miss Windershins that there was indeed a "Dark Carnival" set up on the docks of Arkham. I excused myself from my lovely company and headed via steamer to my destination. A thick fog pushed down from the hills surrounding the port cit… Continue
