  1. Self-promotion ahoy. I recently released a Call of Cthulhu scenario on DTRPG that might fit into a winter-themed session or two: A Chill in Abashiri - A 1920s Taisho-Era Japan Scenario Out now on DriveThruRPG: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/418947/A-Chill-in-Abashiri--A-1920s-TaishoEra-Japan-Scenario?affiliate_id=10748 or in a bundle of other wintery scenarios: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/418294/Snowed-In-BUNDLE?affiliate_id=10748 YouTube trailer: https://youtu.be/nSVyhxTCVcI December 1922, Abashiri, Northern Japan Abashiri Prison, located on the northern shore of Hokkaido, houses ‘dangerous’ criminals and political dissidents, and is no stranger to death and cold. But when a guard dies under suspicious circumstances, and amidst an unprecedented cold snap, a team of mixed professionals is sent to investigate the facility and its occupants, both staff and imprisoned. Amidst the Taisho-era empire’s political maelstrom, the investigators must navigate suspicious guards and uncooperative prisoners to uncover a plot that threatens not just Abashiri Prison, but the future of their changing nation. A Chill in Abashiri is a mystery-investigative scenario set in 1922 Japan, casting the players as a team investigating the death of a prison guard at Abashiri Prison in Hokkaido. It uses Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition rules. The scenario is designed to be run in roughly four to six hours for a group of four investigators, though it could be shortened to fit convention length or expanded to cover extra sessions, and could be modified for one investigator, or up to six. A Chill in Abashiri includes: 28 fully bookmarked and hyperlinked pages including handouts, maps, and stat blocks, rule supplements and Keeper aids (39 with cover and pregen investigators). Character illustrations by David North and Zed Nope, and images of Abashiri Prison and its surroundings to build ambience. Four pre-generated 1920s Japanese investigators, and suggestions for creating new or using existing investigators. Flowchart, encounter table, and advice for Keepers to suit the scenario to their group. Two spells, a Mythos Tome, a Mythos Deity, two new Japanese weapons.
  2. I'd be super game for that. I doubt an official Chaosium product would ever happen though, too much of niche of a niche of a niche interest. I could see it being very comfortable in its tiny niche though, being like a horror-focused, simplified, and historical-ish alternative to WFRP, sort of. Hopefully someone on the Miskatonic Repository will get around to it someday, or Chaosium gets a sudden boat-full of cash they decide to burn on a passion project.
  3. The summer 2022 Call of Cthulhu RPG Writer Workshop bundle just came out, featuring scenarios from new community writers that took the Storytelling Collective’s writing course (myself included). 24 scenarios for $28.49, 70% off their individual prices!

  4.

  5. Thanks Closterphobia! ...and hope to see you in another game sometime on the Good Friends discord!
  6. My first Call of Cthulhu scenario, Branches of Bone, is out on DriveThruRPG! Branches of Bone is a frantic, survival-horror one-shot scenario set in the 8th century, casting the players as Vikings raiding a monastery off the coast of Northumbria. It uses Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition and Cthulhu Dark Ages 3rd Edition rules. It's only 10 copies away from Copper, so to get it the rest of the way there, the next 10 sales are 50% off through the below link: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?discount=9b94ae3b1c After that its still only $4.95! www.drivethrurpg.com/product/405806/Branches-of-Bone--A-Cthulhu-Dark-Ages-Scenario?affiliate_id=3534349 And if you do give it a whirl, I'd love to hear how it went, either in a review on DTRPG, a post here, or tracking me down on any social platform. I also have an overview of the scenario on my site that you can read/listen to for more detail on the scenario and tips on running it. https://mjrrpg.com/branches-of-bone-call-of-cthulhu-viking-survival-horror/ Trailer:
  7. I've been having a lot of fun (excel is fun go away) messing around with this to find mean/median page counts/prices to help price my stuff. Looking forward to seeing the wave of new titles coming in soon.
