Call of Cthulhu: Shanghai ho!

October 6, 2025

When last we left our party, it was with: Alice dead Teddy devastated by Alice‘s death Saleem devastated by the death of his family Agatha Broadmoor, the psychic from the other group who we rescued from being sacrificed to Netocris, absolutely cheerful with survival Somerset WRACKED with survivor’s guilt – only he and Evelyn remain of the original party Ared the lone survivor of his own group & at a loss for direction Caliope struggling to maintain a hold on her sanity, and Evelyn… probably out of her head on…

Call of Cthulhu: Pour One Out for Alice

September 15, 2025

If you will recall, we left off stuck in a terrible temple of Nyaralthotep, having chased the god himself off with a molotov cocktail. After some exploration in the largely dark area, Caliope decides to try make nitroglycerin out of the dynamite Ared found in the back of the plane we stole (along with the chickens, but it was funnier to just mention the chickens previously). (Our backup plan is to try some occult stuff, but that’ll take longer so we figure we’ll try explosions first and magic second.) In…

Call of Cthulhu: Motes in the Eye of a God

September 1, 2025

WELL. In my absence 2 weeks ago, the crew went out to the Evil Overlord’s plantation, where things were going well until they very suddenly weren’t (apparently there was a massive Disguise failure, among other things), and they ended the session with the Evil Overlord ritually killing himself so he could rise again at a time of his own convienence, while also cursing Caliope (whose name, it turns out, is spelled that way, and not how I’ve been spelling it all along) to die within a month if we leave…

Call of Cthulhu: Below & Above (the sand)

August 28, 2025

We are in the Ceremony Room of Doom. Calliope and Evelyn, being unavailable this week, have mysteriously disappeared (although they’re technically there). Summerset, being available this week, has appeared in their places (and technically always was). :) Alice: Is there anything in this room that draws me to it? Any images of my queen? Summerset: WHEN DID ALICE BEGIN TO REFER TO HER AS ‘MY’ QUEEN? Me: In the past session or so? Summerset: THIS SEEMS VERY BAD. DM: There is something that draws you, Alice, but it’s an image…

Call of Cthulhu: Down in the Underground

July 21, 2025

When last we saw our heroes, they were returning from a side trip to Memphis. In our absence, Teddy, Freddy, Evelyn and Calliope had a side adventure and then went out and got properly smashed at a drag king club, the name of which is escaping me, somewhere in Cairo. This all went as well as you could possibly imagine, and they returned incredibly hung over. Teddy and Dr Willie Preston met for the first time. It was most excellent. Tragically, they then parted ways, Teddy to nurse a headache…
