Gomez's Masks of Nyarlathotep Game: OOC

First Post
And at the last from inner Egypt came
The strange dark One to whom the fellahs bowed;
Silent and lean and cryptically proud,
And wrapped in fabrics red as sunset flame.
Throngs pressed around, frantic for his commands,
But leaving, could not tell what they had heard;
While through the nations spread the awestruck word
That wild beasts followed him and licked his hands.

Soon from the sea a noxious birth began;
Forgotten lands with weedy spires of gold;
The ground was cleft, and mad auroras rolled
Down on the quaking citadels of man.
Then, crushing what he chanced to mould in play,
The idiot Chaos blew Earth's dust away.

- H.P. Lovecraft, Fungi from Yuggoth - Sonnet XXI.



This Game Keeper without a group would like to run a Complete Masks of Nyarlathotep game using Call of Cthulhu d20 rules. Wanted: Four to Six stout adventurer and/or adventuress to unravel the fate of the doomed Carlyle Expedition. The campaign, set in 1925, is a Lovecraftian exercise in horror and mystery. Play begins in New York City. This is a classic and great campaign. I hope to do it justice.

There will be a healthy mix of investigation, mystery, role-play, and terror filled combat. All player characters should be connected in someway with each other and/or Jackson Elias, a author who specializes in writing about death cults such the Thuggees or Amazonean headhunters. The players will come up with these connections as they build their characters.

Character's will start at 3rd level. Hit points max at first and roll normally after that. Abilities will be generated using this standard array: 17,15,14,13,12,10. You my assign these numbers as you wish. I want to see a varied and interesting group of characters.

This is a long campaign and I promise to keep it going as long as there are players who want to play! :) I am new to PbP but not to roleplaying in general. Any questions, suggestions or comments on my style or the game will be appricated.

I'd like to join. Sign me up.

I'm trying to get my own PbP game off the ground but I'm sure I have the time to play in something too... Been awhile since I last played Cthulhu. Actually, been awhile since I last "played" anything. So I think I'm long overdue to step into a player role.

Welcome aboard. Once we get 1 or 2 more players we can get started. Though if you want to kick around character ideas feel free! :)
 


could be interested.. what do you say about a psychic type in the mix?

Had a concept I've wanted to try out in d20 CoC for a long time.. (besides it's been a LONG time since I've lost a pc to knowing too much of the real nature of the universe. :) )

A psychic type like a medium, sensitive, or occultist would work just fine. The psychic feats would be perfect for this. Though I would only want one psyhic type character in the group at any one time.
