The souls of your investigators are craving new mysteries? Or are you one of those Keepers who prefer to have many stories? In any case, this book longs to be in your hands. Do not resist its call...
"Mansions of Madness....
Behind Closed Doors" – is a collection of 5 scenarios for your team of investigators. 2 of them have already become classics, but have been completely updated and refined, while the other 3 you have never encountered before. Each of them is standalone and tells its story of the strange and unexplained. However, if you wish, you can easily combine them into one campaign. So here are the scenarios awaiting you:
Mr. Corbitt: the story of a modest gentleman, but, as they say, an evil spirit lurks in a quiet place...
The Crooked House: the townsfolk prefer to avoid the old Fitzgerald house. And for good reason: the new owner of the house disappears without a trace.
The Secret Code: Dr. Kenneth Connolly urgently calls for investigators. The reason for urgency – unexplained phenomena at the Wellington estate.
The House of Memphis: a world-famous illusionist has been missing for more than three weeks. Did he leave in search of inspiration for new performances, or was it a mysterious disappearance?
Nineteenth Hole: renovation work at the Scottish golf club is not going as planned.
How to play?
"Call of Cthulhu" – is a role-playing game where the players write the plot themselves by acting out the roles of characters according to predefined rules. And to ensure that you, caught up in the gameplay, do not start ignoring these rules – a special player, called the keeper or game master, monitors their adherence. He also weaves the players' decisions into the fabric of the overall plot, devises the surroundings, and the actions of opponents. Role-playing games can be either completely verbal or use character and environment miniatures to immerse players deeper into the world of fantasy.
Traditionally, the likelihood of success in "Call of Cthulhu" is determined by rolling dice: in different situations, various amounts of points are required for a good outcome. It’s important to keep track of your character's mental health, for human consciousness does not always withstand encounters with the supernatural, and there is plenty of ancient magic and cruel demons in the game.
Who won?
In "Call of Cthulhu," as in other role-playing games, there is no clear goal to score the most points or kill the most monsters. Throughout the game, you will play the role of ordinary people: police detectives, historian scholars, journalists, who confront ancient evil. During the game, your character may well die or go insane, after which you can create an entirely different hero and immerse yourself in a new role. The main thing is to enjoy vibrant sensations from the game, experiencing thrilling adventures in a friendly company.
Attention! A rulebook "Call of Cthulhu: Keeper’s Book" or "Call of Cthulhu. Starter Set", a pencil, and a set of dice are required.
