About me
Hello, my name is Johan, but when I'm behind the keeper screen I'm Lester Goodman. I have been running Call of Cthuhlu weekly for about four years now. Before that I had been runing a variety of games like pathfinder, shadowrun, drakar&demoner and runequest. My games are mainly focused on the investigation and mystery, but it can become a bit spooky from time to time. I mainly run prewritten scenarios over at roll 20 that I try to weave into a larger narrative.

Creating your character
At a session 0 you will all create your characters and mb a backup character as well. No books are necesary to have but the investigators handbook could help a little to have.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You need to have a Roll 20 account as that is where we are playing and you need a Discord account as that is were the voice chat will take place.
What Lester brings to the table
I'm hoping to run a fun and mysterious call of Cthulhu game that can get a little bit scary at times but are not the main focus of the game. It's light on combat and heavy on the investigation. But when combat happends its fast and deadly.
