SYSTEM: Call of Cthulhu 7e DATE: 2017-01-28 I was not entirely satisfied with the way this one went. Maybe I needed more prep time but the group never got to a point that made them want to stay on board and investigate everything. Or perhaps I gave out too much up front, but by the time…

Cults of Chaos: A Time of Harvest Episode 2
WHERE: MACE 2016 (Charlotte, NC) WHEN: November 12, 2016 SYSTEM/SETTING: Call of Cthulhu 7e/ 1930 America, Arkham This adventure was completely different from Episode 1. It was far less railroading and more free formatted. I had to egg the characters on to get it going, though. I had 3 players from the previous session return plus…
Cults of Chaos: A Time of Harvest Episode 1
WHERE: MACE 2016 (Charlotte, NC) WHEN: November 11, 2016 SYSTEM/SETTING: Call of Cthulhu 7e/ 1930 America, Vermont Never thought I would get involved in with anything Organized Play but when Call of Cthulhu did it, I was all in. They approach it differently from other OP (at least the way I understand it). They simply…
The Derelict
SYSTEM: Call of Cthulhu 7e Cool little adventure that is very similar to the one I ran in generic modern Savage Worlds. This one had a cool monster that only a few characters can see. The central premise is to hunt down this monster and figure out why some can see and others can’t. It…
A Restoration of Evil Rewrite – Agenda Cards
I found that the Call of Cthulhu A Restoration of Evil” mini-adventure, although perfect for a convention game, still did not convey enough about the cult. In one instance, I am not sure the group completely understood that it was a cult at the center of the plot. Nevermind the fact that there is a…

A Restoration of Evil Rewrite Pt 3
“Lilith left Adam after she refused to become subservient to him and then would not return to the Garden of Eden after she had coupled with the archangel Samael” – Wikipedia The Cult of Lillith – In the HPL story The Horror at Red Hook, there is indications that the cult in question is related to the…
Dark Rivals (RonCon Spring 2016)
From the Dead Reckonings Sourcebook (converted to CoC 7e) Pre-Game Read and Prep I am planning on running this on Dark Rivals for one of my game day events, RonCon. I picked it relatively randomly although I like the “caught in the middle of a Livecraftian War” aspect to it. However, I do have a few…
The Restoration of Evil Re-Write
I am reading a mini- adventure that was published with the 6th Edition Keeper Screen, The Restoration of Evil. It takes place in Red Hook NY, as sort of a sequel to one of Lovecraft’s stories – The Horror at Red Hook – but it just doesn’t cut it for me. Sometimes I just wonder how some of…
Blackwater Creek
Setting/System: 1920s USA/Call of Cthulhu 7e I ran this at RonCon Spring 2015 in 7th edition CoC. It was a blast. The basic premise deals with a source of illegal whiskey somewhere in the backwoods of Massachusetts. I did not change the adventure all that much but I planned for at least 8 players (although…
