"CTHULHU and the Old Ones remain powerful in the half-century since Lovecraft’s death. The globe is well-explored, but the darkness within men’s souls in unfathomed. Now human fortunes encompass Cthulhu and the H-bomb too! Does technology aid the struggle for good, or is it helpless against forces from beyond space, beyond time? CTHULHU NOW includes four roleplaying adventures, “The City in the Sea,” “The Killer Out of Space,” “The Evil Stars,” and “Dreams Dark and Deadly.” Background essays provide new skills and occupations, up-to-date cash-flow information, an elaborate firearms article (and foldout illustrating contemporary firearms), active and passive night-vision equipment, a survey of forensic pathology from Sherlock Holmes’ day to the present (required reading for every serious player), and even a hit location option (useful when lots of bullets must be dealt with). Player aids for the adventures are repeated on perforated pages at the back of the book." 1987 ... 128 pages + fold-out firearms chart ... CHAO 2322 ...

"A Campaign of Madness and Terror in the Days to Come: Salvaging Our Children’s Heritage. Full Wilderness Inc. is a wealthy environmental organization dedicated to the maintenance and expansion of protected wilderness reserves. In addition, Full Wilderness funds legitimate biological researches for greater understanding of our natural environment. Dr. Peter Tait, a respected microbiologist from a major grant recipient, disappeared after reporting disturbing research irregularities. Backed by the considerable resources of Full Wilderness, the investigators uncover the facts surrounding Dr. Tait’s disappearance. In succeeding adventures, the Mythos manifests in ways unexpected and extreme. AT YOUR DOOR contains six linked adventures forming a campaign set in the 1990s. Constructed to allow players greater freedom of action, the investigators enter a particular chapter several times as the meaning of earlier events and experiences are understood, or as alternative meanings are perceived. The effects of the Mythos are generally subtle, and confrontation with nigh-invincible powers are few. There is ample opportunity for new investigators to succeed and prosper." 1990 ... 176 pages ...

"The Taste of Ashes... THE LATE 20th CENTURY: a time wracked by violence, racism, AIDS, drug abuse, and all-consuming fear. Hollow politicians offer empty promises of a bright future -- a thousand points of light which none can see. That which is greater than mankind lurks beyond the rim of human consciousness, patiently watching, waiting to assume command of our destiny. Preying upon the fearful, the hateful, and the hated, dark thoughts and emotions are set free to prowl the earth, taking what they will, where they will, and as they will. We cower in our homes, quaking behind the false security of tall fences, locked doors, and television. But to no avail -- the stars are right and cannot be denied. Azathoth * Cthugha * Daoloth * Ghroth * Y'golonac * Yog-Sothoth These are the voices heard by those whose fears have led them to the brink of madness, and beyond.

"The horrors lurking in the modern world are often a synthesis of the mundane and the monstrous. For example, the concept of snuff films is monstrous, but with such a strong foundation of mundane movies full of graphic sex and violence, we can easily believe in their existence even if we have not seen them ourselves. Susan Smith was to all appearances a loving mother, yet she sent the car with her two young sons in it into a lake and let them drown. If these are part of our world, what other, less understandable, horrors must be waiting for us? The ideas presented in this book attempt to be both mundane and fantastic at the same time — plausibility is the key. It is in the details that the horror lies, because it is in the credibility of the details that the fantastic can rise and stand. This, then, is a book of details, most mundane, some fantastic. They have but one purpose — that of bringing Lovecraft’s horror home to us here and now. THE 1990s HANDBDOK is a revision of Cthulhu Now, and brings CALL OF CTHULHU into the mid-1990s. New equipment detailed includes surveillance paraphernalia, computers, and lethal and non-lethal weapons. The roles of the government, the military, the police, and crime in the modern world are discussed. An optional hit location system is presented. Several scenario storylines are given." 1995 ...

Each includes extra resources of useful information. • A serial killer stalks the citizens of New York City. As the body count mounts, the investigators must marshal the city's resources and try to make sense of the trail of evidence in time to prevent a massacre. • What is Truth? Where is the line between imagination and reality? Who can say that the mad do not see into realms forbidden to the sane? When one investigator stumbles upon the Truth, he threatens to dispel the veil of illusion woven by a powerful evil. • The prophesies of Armageddon will soon be fulfilled. As the plans of a great corporation begin to take direction, after twenty-seven centuries so does a shadow of ancient evil rise to finish what it began so long ago." 2001 ...

"A Severn Valley Sourcebook and Open Campaign for Call of Cthulhu... Goatswood is set in the towns and villages of the Severn River Valley, in southwestern Britain. A gentle land of green rolling hills, thick ancient forests, and golden limestone cottages, the Severn Valley nonetheless holds dark and brooding secrets. The world of Ramsey Campbell is not always a nice place... not always a pretty place. It is deadly to those who meddle where they do not belong, to those who seek the things man is best not knowing, and to those who covet darkness and degenerate pleasures. • An investigator's inheritance includes an unwholesome treasure, and can serve as the introduction to a Severn Valley campaign. • Additional scenarios explore the dark secrets of the region and include explorations into the nature of vampirism and challenge our understanding of the mechanics of time. • Dozens of scenario hooks, many new spells and mythos artifacts, and hundreds of characters populate this corner of Britain and help bring the world of a major Mythos author to life." 2001 ... 256 pages ...
