Call of Cthulhu Roleplaying Game Series
The Great Old Ones rules the Earth aeons before the incidental rise
of humankind. They came from the gulfs of space, waged war upon one
another, and then were cast own by even greater beings. Remains of
their cyclopean cities and forbidden knowledge can still be found in
the remote extremes of our planet. Upon uncharted islands, within
dark ocean depths, under burning desert sands, locked within polar
ice, miles below the Earth's crust they lay imprisoned. But when the
stars are right they will awaken and walk this Earth once more.
Call of Cthulhu is Chaosium's classic roleplaying game of
Lovecraftian horror in which ordinary people are confronted by the
terrifying and alien forces of the Cthulhu Mythos. Call of Cthulhu
uses Chaosium's Basic Roleplaying System, easy to learn and quick to
play. This bestseller has sold over 300,000 copies worldwide and has
won dozens of game-industry awards. In 1996 Call of Cthulhu was
elected to the Academy of Adventure Game Design Hall of Fame. In 2001
Call of Cthulhu celebrated its 20th anniversary. In 2003 Call of
Cthulhu was voted the #1 Gothic/Horror RPG of all time by the Gaming
Report.com community. Call of Cthulhu is well-supported by an
ever-growing line of high quality game supplements.
This new hardback edition is completely compatible with all of our
previous supplements for Call of Cthulhu. Some sections of the book
have been corrected and clarified, and the book includes some new
interior art as well as incorporating the layout from our Origins
Award winning Call of Cthulhu 20th Anniversary edition. This is a
complete roleplaying game in one volume. All you need to play is this
book, some dice, imagination, and your friends. |

SHADOWS OF YOG-SOTHOTH

CHA 2397
MSRP $23.95 (was $22.95)

160 Pages (was 144)
Call of Cthulhu Campaign
By Sandy Petersen & Friends
The Silver Twilight is a secretive, international order dedicated to
the destruction of the human race. As brave investigators, you must
piece together passages from esoteric books, shards of strange
artifacts and puzzling letters to discover the Silver Twilight's
loathsome goals.
Shadows of Yog-Sothoth is a modestly-sized campaign of seven
scenarios. During the course of play the investigators penetrate the
outer layers of a secret sinister occult organization led by the
lords of the Silver Twilight. Beginning in Boston they investigate an
organization in New York, run afoul of a coven in Scotland, roam the
desert of the American southwest, vacation off the coast of Maine,
and explore the mysteries of the South Pacific.
In addition to the campaign, this book includes two bonus scenarios.
The People of the Monolith introduces the mysteries of the Cthulhu
Mythos, and no harm can come to the investigators except through
insanity. As such, is perfect for introducing new players to the
wonders of Call of Cthulhu.
The other bonus scenario, The Warren, presents and unsettling
challenge for even experienced players.
Originally published in 1982, this new edition includes modified
episode scene changes, player-handouts guide for the keeper, and new
illustrations and diagrams. It is 144 pages, perfect-bound,
illustrated with an index. |
