Mechanically, this version of Agnes is not especially exciting – she has very high Lore, balanced 5 health and 5 sanity, and the ability to pay the cost of casting spells with Stamina instead of Sanity, as well as getting a slight bonus when casting combat-related spells. That said, even just reading the sheet is enough to get an early sense of Agnes: unassuming Waitress Agnes Baker is first made aware of her past life when she falls from a ladder and hits her head! She wakes up in the hospital with one repeated word whispered in her head: “ Hyperborea” – as implausible a starting-point as this may seem, after trying one of the newly-remembered spells in secret, she finds that it works, and begins to hone her spell-craft. As such, from Agnes forth, any thoughts on investigators in 2 nd Edition are going to be purely theory-crafting. Sadly, Arkham Horror 2 nd Edition was one of the victims in the cull of my games collection – my wife didn’t really enjoy it, and we’d almost always rather play Eldritch Horror. Regular readers of the blog will know that the last year has involved a spot of enforced downsizing/relocation.

Next up for the Investigators Revisited series is Agnes Baker, the Waitress. Oh, and did we mention that she may also be the reincarnation of a mighty sorceress from Hyperborea? By day a friendly server at Velma’s Diner, by night fearless investigator and challenger of the Mythos.
