‘The Call of CthulWho’ Shoutout to our Followers!

Iä! Iä! CthulWho Fhtagn! If you have been following but not yet backed this campaign, or are looking at it for the first time, this would be an ideal time for you to come on board with it. Here are some great reasons to support it now: 

“The Call of CthulWho” — a complete, self-standing, fully-illustrated MythosPunk RPG adventure that includes everything needed to play it, including rules and pregenerated characters — has met its basic funding goal, so you would not be wasting your time with something that isn’t going to happen.

● This project has unlocked its first stretch goal! So, at every pledge level you will also get as a bonus a full set of electronic tokens and avatars for the player character monsters and various guards, scientists, and other creatures associated with this scenario. We will also provide the custom maps for the adventure as separate graphics files, all of which will make it even easier to run the adventure online or on virtual tabletops. 

● If everyone who is currently following this campaign but not yet backed it were to do so now it would definitely unlock our second stretch goal and might also unlock the third.

     ++ When we hit $1,500, we will provide backers with an annotated list of quirky details storytellers can use to customize areas both within and beyond the prison and research complex that appears in the scenario. These details will be accompanied by at least one custom illustration and allow storytellers to more easily include additional encounter areas and run this adventure as an extended campaign.

     ++ When we hit $2,000, we will provide a detailed overview of the Office for Research of Unusual Science (ORUS), from its origins in the ancient world, through its various incarnations over the ages, and up to its ultimate realization in the current era as a covert govern­ment agency (and operator of the base where the scenario is set). This writeup will include at least one custom illustration.

● “The Call of CthulWho” uses the engine from the bestselling rules-light TSRPG (Travel-Sized RPG) narrative game system. So, backers who enjoy this scenario can continue to use both it and the associated TSRPG system to tell their own stories, and to enjoy the other fantasy, horror, post-apocalyptic science fiction, modern, and urban fantasy adventures we have created for it.

And thanks to all 68 of the great people who have already backed Skirmisher Publishing’s campaign for “The Call of CthulWho” and funded it more than 250%! This project is coming together beautifully and we know you are going to love it. 

This map by artist Bob Greyvenstein is the smallest that appears in “The Call of CthulWho” and depicts the underground prison where the monstrous player characters begin the adventure.
