About the adventure
This is an ideal first taste of Call of Cthulu and comes with a player's guide or pregen character, plenty of GM handholding and a gritty survival vibe. Expect the unexpected and understand that, in Call of Cthulu, some characters will probably not survive. This game is designed to be run in about six hours (two to three sessions) and has been run more quickly for the convention setting. I use discord and Roll20 as my main tools and am happy to assist if you are learning the platforms.

About me
I've been playing and GMing since the mid-80s and am one of the GMs for the Nene Valley Roleplaying Association (check out our YouTube.) I've run one of my published Call of Cthulhu scenarios at ChaosiumCon UK and enjoy the challenge of a Convention type session. I am comfortable running DnD 5e, World of Darkness, Call of Cthulhu, Blades in the Dark, and Savage Worlds.

Creating your character
Reach out prior to the game and I will provide a player's guide, and links to our Discord and Roll20 sites. We will use the Roll20 character sheet. If needed, I'm happy to provide a pregenerated character or assist you in character creation.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need the free Roll20 and Discord accounts. Reach out to me prior to the game and I will provide links to the Roll20 game and the Discord server.
What Anthony brings to the table
Your GM will provide interesting non-player characters for your role-play enjoyment, sound effects, ambient music, exciting maps and cool tokens.
Homebrew rules
You don't need to know the Call of Cthulhu rules. You will learn the basics rapidly and will have a GM taking care of the minutiae.

How Anthony creates a safe table
We will go over Lines and Veils during session zero and will build out a consensus document. If you would prefer to discuss in private, I'm happy to accommodate. We are here to put your characters through a cosmic horror scenario, not you as a player! During play, we will use the Roll20 X and Pause cards as well as verbal cues to stop the action.
