Good evening.
Father Mateo is a character that appears in both the "Mansions of Madness" and "Eldritch Horror" board games (the image below is from "Eldritch Horror". And it was through him that I became fascinated with the role religion might play in the worlds of H.P. Lovecraft. It only seemed natural; many of Lovecraft's stories make use of occult knowledge and books so why not explore the other side of the coin?
If the opportunity ever presented itself, I would very much like to play a priest in a Call of Cthulhu campaign. It would be interesting to see if faith offers additional protection from -- or vulnerability to -- the denizens of the Cthulhu Mythos. It would also be interesting if the character's "Luck" score was interpreted as "Faith" for those with a religion-based occupation.
So to any Keepers who have had a religion-based Investigator in their campaign -- or to any Investigator who has played one, I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback on the subject. Thank you so much!
