Campaigns in a nutshell. Adventures in a sentence.

[Bohandas]

The cops and the press won't take the inveatigators claims of supernatural mythos stuff seriously without a tangible demonstration that it's not just a bunch of hocus pocus. However the secrecy of the mythos isn't a masquerade (in the trops sense), it's a curse placed by the Old Ones' enemies the Elder Gods. As a result one of two things happens - either the quest for proof is absolutely futile, or else the fact that non-mythos-affiliated persons have brought this to people's attention breaks the curse, at least for a time, and allows mythos knowledge to openly spread and/or allows dark magic to work much more easily
