[Miskatonic Repository] Stench of an Open Grave - A Cthulhu Dark Ages Scenario

[Marcus Bone]

Hey all I normally stalk the Stormbringer sub forum here but I have some news... 

So I've finally - after a number of years of self doubt and lack of time - uploaded a Call of Cthulhu scenario up on drivethrurpg (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/457424/Stench-of-an-Open-Grave--A-Cthulhu-Dark-Ages-Scenario). A short and sweet adventure I wrote as a bit of a intro to the setting and unique style of Dark Ages for some friends, I've expanded it a bit for release (adding three pregens as well). 

I think I explain my motivations best in my author's note (copied here)...

This scenario was created with the express purpose of introducing new players to Cthulhu Dark Ages and as such presents what I hope is a simple, almost linear, mystery for them to explore. With this audience in mind, ‘Stench’ attempts to downplay the more fantastical elements that can sometimes seep into Dark Ages games and instead tries to bring to life the culture and experience of living in the Early Middle Ages. Of course, this may mean more experienced role-players (especially those well versed in the Dark Ages) might find the story a little too simplistic for their tastes, but nevertheless I would still like to think that you ‘hold in your hand’ a well thought out, fun scenario; one that can give a good night or two’s entertainment for any fan of the Cthulhu Mythos. 

I'm hoping - if this sells well - it might break the shackles and motivate me to produce some of the myriad of other Call of Cthulhu scenarios (and campaigns) I have floating around on my harddrives.

Thanks to everyone here who has had such kind words in the past (or has played in one of my freebies over at unboundbook.org)
