Message: <blockquote data-quote="rowport" data-source="post: 2677444" data-attributes="member: 9729">Your ideas for game source books is pretty good already; if I may add a couple more:* Darkness & Dread (Mike Mearls) by FFG is a *fantastic* book focused on this genre for d20.  It has game mechanics ideas, but also advise on running dark fantasy.* Call of Cthulu d20 (Monte Cook) by WOTC is very good.  Purists may prefer the original version, but for ease of use in a D&D campaign, the d20 version is the way to go.  Again, the game advise goes beyond just mechanics- but there are some cool beasties here.* Necroscope is an older game based on the novel series of the same name; it could be useful if you can find it.  I planned to convert it for a d20 Modern game but never did- the mechanics were not quickly converted.  Still, there are nifty ideas there, or even just in reading the Brian Lumley novels themselves as original sources.  Heck, there are a ton of books in the series.  Lumley's Cthulu-esque books might be good, also.  I guess I am saying: read some Brian Lumley books.  Heh.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
