About the adventure

Masks of Nyarlathotep is a globe-spanning campaign that will take the investigators to seven different continents. The investigators must thwart unspeakable horror and save all of humankind. Starting in Peru, this is just the beginning of the epic journey the investigators will make. This award winning campaign is set in the 1920's and is considered one of the best campaign for Call of Cthulhu ever written. We will be using the 7th Edition of the Call of Cthulhu rules as well as the Pulp Supplement. The player's investigators will be more robust, but so will their adversaries. Players will be able to create characters during session 0 or they may choose from a variety of pre-generated characters. I run inclusive games and beginners are more than welcome at my table. This is a game of Cosmic Horror based upon the writings of H.P. Lovecraft.

About me

So, a bit about me. I'm a TTRPG content creator and GM. I have played many different games over the last 41 years and been a GM almost as long. I have always enjoyed story driven games and strive to include that in the games I run. I enjoy a mix of RP and tactical but can adapt based on the group. I run inclusive games where everyone is welcome. I'm newcomer friendly and am more than happy and willing to teach the game to somebody who has never played before. Safety tools are important to me as I want everybody to have a good time and a safe place to play. I don't use AI in my games or ads. Everything is human made.

Character creation

Creating your character

Players will have a choice of either creating a new character during Session 0 or choosing a pre-generated character from a decent selection. We will be using the Low Pulp rules for Call of Cthulhu during character creation. 1 pulp talent. No psychic skills or weird science. Hit Points are standard.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

The game will be run on Roll20 with Discord for voice. A decent microphone and an internet connection are all that's really needed. Familiarity with Call of Cthulhu is a bonus, but is not necessary. Beginners are very welcome in my games.

What Gord (Two Drunk Dwarves) brings to the table

I will have all the necessary maps and handouts on Roll20 as well as the compendium in Roll20.

Safety

How Gord (Two Drunk Dwarves) creates a safe table

This is a game of Cosmic Horror and as such can get pretty dark at times. We will discuss hard-limits during session 0. I want my players to have fun and not be scarred in real life.
