Current scenario: MetaGame Era: Modern, Classic 7e Rules Focus: Player to Player Roleplaying, Mystery, Cosmic Horror, Combat opportunities Experience: Suitable for Beginner and Experienced Needs: 2 minimum Sessions: 1 x 3-3 1/2 hour session **Are you ready to question your own reality?** Step into the chilling world of MetaGame, a one-shot Call of Cthulhu scenario where nothing is as it seems. Wake up in a freezing, abandoned car with no memory of who you are or how you got there. As the storm rages outside, clues unravel a nightmarish truth lurking just beyond your grasp. Haunted by fragmented memories and hunted by unseen forces, you must piece together your past before it consumes you. A blend of psychological horror and mind-bending twists awaits—can you survive the revelations, or will your sanity shatter before dawn?

Additional details
How to prepare
You will need to have a discord account and a microphone. I will send over a list of available pre generated character to select from and then send the character sheet once you commit. If you have read the quick start rules that would be great but to honest you can play with no experience of Call of Cthulhu.
What I provide
Game play: Mix of theatre of the mind, maps and handouts via discord.
Gameplay details

How will character creation work
Hello and thank you for signing up to play in the Puppet Playhouse. Discord will be our voice and information exchange. If you’ve not used it before, it's super simple. You’ll need to sign up for a free account if you don’t have one already. You can use it streaming or can download the app onto your computer or phone/tablet (I recommend downloading the app onto your computer). You can do that here: https://discord.com/ Once you are all set up there, my server - where you will find our voice chat and a text chat is located here: https://discord.gg/Vjfr9FDW24 I also recommend using a pair of headphones when we play. If you have any questions between now and game time - just let me know! -Professor Bob
