3 out of 5 of my group are 'norms', as are most of the guest stars; they're just
beginning to scratch the surface of the Occult Underground, although
(frequently) they don't realise it. They're racking up hardened notches pretty
quick, but I think they'll end up coping OK. The adepts, oddly enough, seem to
be the ones going ga-ga - well, do not call up that which, etc., etc... ;)

OTOH, one of the basic campaign points for the starting characters was that they
all had to be receptive to the idea of the supernatural really existing: after
playing -way- too much norm-based Call of Cthulhu, I began to -cramp- every time
we had to roleplay one of those Mulder 'n Scully "hmm, it sure -looks- like a
werewolf, but it's probably just swamp light reflected off a weather balloon"
routines.
