Dec 12, 2019

Stygian Fox Publishing had released three new adventures for 7th edition Call of Cthulhu, from Chaosium Inc, and they’re now available in PDF at DriveThruRPG.

From Stygian Fox:

The Dark Forest

The Dark Forest is a modern day scenario for the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game published by Chaosium, Inc, edited and written by Chitin Proctor, with art by Stephanie McAlea.

An entity from Finnish folklore takes hold of a small U.S. town completely unprepared for the corruption and horror it brings.

The scenario deals with extremely mature themes including the horror of sexual abuse. While this is handled as an “off screen” past event, it is one of the driving facets of an NPC’s character.

As such, please be aware that some of the themes are quite mature and are suitable for adult gamers only. It is required that you clear such subjects with your players first, before playing, and away from the table in order to not cause distress.

Autophagia

Autophagia is a classic 1920s scenario for the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game published by Chaosium, Inc,edited by Chitin Proctor and written by Tyler Omichinski, with art by Stephanie McAlea.

A perculiar disease begins to spread on a trans-Atlantic liner. Blisters, sores, and discolouration lead to delirium and a strong need for the patient to chew away at parts of their own body. As the Investigators peer a little close into the mystery they find a shapeless entity intent on conquering the world.

The scenario deals with extremely mature themes including the horror of self harm. While this is handled as an “off screen” past event, it is one of the driving facets of the disease. Taking inspiration from ‘who goes there?’ and ‘The Thing’ the players can find themselves outmatched if they fail to keep the ship quarantine in New York harbour. As the entity can form into other lifeforms by infection there may be a part of the adventure when the ship’s cat is actually the entity trying to infect others and escape leading to the Investigators trying to kill it.

As such, please be aware that some of the themes are quite mature and are suitable foradult gamers only. It is required that you clear such subjects with your players first, before playing, and away from the table in order to not cause distress.

Keepers should keep in mind the content of self harm, cannibalism, and animal cruelty when suggesting this adventure to their players.

Nakuko

It’s a sit down meal between a girl, her parents and two teenage friends. Eating in the Japanese style, they sit on bended knees around a low dinner table. The daughter Eiko shuffles uncomfortably, her bare legs itchy against the Tatami mats. Moments later, Eiko will be dead, killed by a malevalent entity intent on revenge.

Can the Investigators face this threat head on and prevent more deaths in 1990s Japan?

As so often is the case, there are no winners when fate has trapped you in a dice game for doom or destiny. As such, please be aware that some of the themes are quite mature and are suitable forGamers who are at least of adult age and maturity.
