  1. Hi, investigators and Keepers. I wrote a full magazine with two scenarios and two articles to help players and Keepers, and it's already available through the Miskatonic Repository: Dark Visions From Beyond #00 - Chaosium | Miskatonic Repository | DriveThruRPG.com Here is a bit about it: Dark Visions From Beyond is a magazine with its structures based on the Cthulhu Mythos, dedicating its pages to the insanity of Call of Cthulhu 7th. The Alienist: A 12-page article delving into the Alienist's occupation, providing inspiration for players and Keepers with a broad background, occupational and personal usage os skills, suggestions, and random tables about their main dramas: significant people, meaningful locations, ideologies and beliefs, treasured possessions, raits and peculiarities, as well as involving an Alienist investigator in Mythos mysteries and story hooks. The One Who Crawls in the Night: A 40-page scenario (adventure) in the classical era about deep ones and a cult that worship them in a coast country city. This article includes a variation of the spell Contact Deep One, handouts, a flowchart with a summary of the scenes, and four pre-made investigators. An ancient evil is about to awaken. Creating Your Own Cthulhu: A 6-pages article with tips on how to brainstorm your ideas into a homemade scenario. The Last Glimpse of Hope: A 48-pages modern era scenario about Carcosa, the Yellow King, profane artefacts, and a strange srocceress in the city of Arkham. This article includes a new monster (the Yellow Plague Creature), handouts, a flowchart with a summary of the scenes, and four pre-made investigators. The road to enlightenment is lonely. Some page examples: You can contact me anytime about any questions or suggestions. Thanks in advance.

  3. I released a new Pamphlet Adventure called When They Come. It is on Miskatonic Repository for just $2.

  4. Door to the Sky, a one-shot adventure pamphlet is available at the Miskatonic Repository. A few minutes of reading, several hours of fun — print, fold, and play. I recreated the layout of the first adventure I wrote and added a new PDF. If you already bought this adventure, just enter the link and download the new version. If you haven't already, buy now and have fun with your group. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/331394/Mythos-Explorers-1--Door-to-the-Sky-Pamphlet-Adventure An astronomer from Miskatonic University disappears while making some lunar studying, in her home observatory. On her last contact, she talks about discovering something incredible. The MU financed the final part of the research and now fears that she is a charlatan. The University contacts Investigators to check Loretta’s home for answers to her disappearance after funding her research.
  5. Hi guys, thanks for your messages. I was taken aback by this unforeseen. But Chaosium has already managed things, and they are working again.
  6. It's Friday the 13th! The Ballad of Thirteen Deaths, a one-shot Friday the 13th special adventure pamphlet is already available at the Miskatonic Repository. A few minutes of reading, several hours of fun — print, fold, and play: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/335943/The-Ballad-of-Thirteen-Deaths-Pamphlet-Adventure
  7. Thank you very much for your support. I am happy that this material helped and inspired you. Thank you, Allan. I'm really happy that you liked it.
  8. Rising from the Stars, a one-shot adventure pamphlet, is available at the Miskatonic Repository. A few minutes of reading, several hours of fun — print, fold, and play: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/335432/Rising-from-the-Stars-Pamphlet-Adventure A group of scientists from Miskatonic University camp in the mountains near Arkham to study an astronomical phenomenon of lights never seen before. What was supposed to be an exciting discovery becomes a nightmare. This scenario can be used by the Keeper to introduce a new group of Investigators that have their first contact with the Mythos.
  9. Hi folks. I wrote another one-shot adventure in a pamphlet format. A few minutes of reading, several hours of fun — print, fold, and play. This time there are three pamphlets: one with a complete adventure, one with four pre-made investigators, and one with high-quality handouts. This is the link to the product on the Miskatonic Repository: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/333950/The-Cabin-in-the-Woods-Pamphlet-Adventure
  10. Oh, thanks for pointing this out. I will fix and update the files. I hope to be able to hire a native English proofreader soon, to avoid these gaffes.
  11. Thanks. I'm glad you liked it. The idea I had was to be compact (some minutes to read) and quick to run. I worked for a few weeks to think about how to summarize a scenario in "one page adventure" and maintain the essence of Call of Cthulhu. On the character sheets, I managed to put a different sheet per column. But the character sheet has only essential information: player and investigator names, occupation, Characteristics, HP, MP, Sanity, and Luck, 10 skills, DB, Build, and Dodge. There is no room for information on weapons, backstory, gear, possessions, cash, assets, and so on. In this case, the player must use a separate sheet to write this information down, if necessary. I have included in the character sheet all the information that needs to roll dice and make calculations, to speed up the character creation. Thank you! Your comment cheered me up. I am a children's illustrator (https://www.instagram.com/imfabiosilva/ to see some of my arts) and I work as a graphic and editorial designer here in Brazil. I have no experience with horror illustration and editorial designer with a focus on horror, but I am struggling to study. Thanks a lot.
  12. Hi folks, I'm from Brazil, and I started writing my ideas for CoC, and I'm going to publish them on the Miskatonic Repository. This is the first of them: http://tiny.cc/mi0zsz MYTHOS EXPLORERS #1 - DOOR TO THE SKY (PAMPHLET ADVENTURE) This is a pamphlet with an adventure structure for Call of Cthulhu 7th. Print, fold, and play. This is an ideal adventure for a short game, lasting an hour or two. The text presents the idea of a complete scenario, with scenes and clues and a new alternative rule for skills. Keepers can add their own ideas to create a bigger adventure or start a campaign. A few minutes of reading, some hours of fun. This pamphlet is great for one-shot games. Did you get together with friends and now want to play something quick, just for fun? One of your group's regular members missed the game, and you want to play an alternative scenario with a few hours of mystery? This adventure is for you. Just a few minutes of reading, and you will be ready to play. By purchasing this product, you will receive: • A two pages PDF with an adventure pamphlet. •A two pages PDF pamphlet with four Pre-Made Investigators. PDF files have layers with the options for COLOR and BLACK and WHITE. • Include files to print it on Letter and A4 paper sizes. This product may undergo regular proofreading. Check this page for the latest updates. If you find typos or grammar, have some suggestions and comments or think something needs to be different in this product, please let me know.
  13. I chated with some folks who read the blog and we talk a lot about how we started our adventures and how important it is to tie and motivative the Investigators at the beginning of a scenario or campaign. I thought I deserved to post the ideas in the blog. How do you do? Lovecraft-style, throwing investigators into a whirlwind of strangeness, or in other ways? http://invasiveprocedure.blogspot.com/2020/05/how-to-start-lovecraftian-adventure-in.html
  14. I liked the way you tell your stories. This is the best part of talking to other Keepers. You made me imagine several ideas for my next sessions. The best part of improvised games is the players' decisions and the unpredictable paths in which anything can happen. Even when I use a pre-made scenario, I tend to improvise or find places in the plot where I can include my own ideas.
  15. I am writing my gaming experiences and routines as a way of studying English and distracting the mind in these dire times. Yesterday I wrote a text about how do I create my own mystery stories in Call of Cthulhu. Any typos, grammar errors, suggestions, or criticisms, feel free to comment: http://invasiveprocedure.blogspot.com/2020/05/how-do-i-create-my-adventures-scenarios.html How do you create your own scenarios and mystery stories in Call of Cthulhu?
