Chaosium have made available the epic Masks of Nyarlathotep Companion for Call of Cthulhu available in PDF on their webstore. This massive 775 page PDF produced by Sixtystone Press expands on the classic globe-trotting Masks of Nyarlathotep campaign first published by Chaosium in 1984.
Ever since its release in 1984, Masks of Nyarlathotep has been considered one of the finest supplements for Call of Cthulhu, a roleplaying classic. Countless players have dared to thwart the machinations of Nyarlathotep and plumb the mysteries of the Carlyle expedition. Running this globe-trotting campaign is unfortunately rather a challenge, with scores of NPCs, dozens of locations, hordes of cultists, and at least one very angry Outer God. Needless to say, even the best Keeper could use a little help.
That is where the Masks of Nyarlathotep Companion comes in. Drawing on the wisdom and experience of the members of Yog-Sothoth.com, the premier site for Lovecraftian role-playing, the Companion gathers together tips and advice for Keepers wishing to run Masks of Nyarlathotep. Within these pages are detailed nearly every imaginable facet of the campaign, from starting play to ending things with a bang; explaining, exploring, and expanding the classic work. There is something for everyone, from novice game masters to Grognardian disciples of Cthulhu.
The Masks of Nyarlathotep Companion contains:
· A History of the Campaign.
· Keeper’s Tips for organizing and running the campaign.
· Tips on how to introduce, use, and kill Jackson Elias.
· Guides to New York, London, Cairo, Kenya, Australia’s Pilbara Coast, Shanghai AND Hong Kong.
· Articles describing and expanding on all of the campaign’s tomes and artifacts.
· Four new scenarios and numerous encounters that can be inserted into the campaign.
· Over two-dozen pre-generated characters plus tips on building better investigators.
90% of the money raised is going to support Yog-sothoth.com – the best fan forum for Call of Cthulhu on the web.
