Pax Cthuliana

Pax Cthuliana

"Pax Cthuliana" is an intense Lovecraftian scenario for experienced players, merging investigative gameplay with puzzles, time travel, and Lovecraft's Mythos. Set in London 1927, players dive into England's occult past to prevent a world-ending catastrophe.

The gameplay hinges on drawing a powerful sigil, with symbols and patterns revealed through investigation. The urgency is amplified by situational music tied to key events, enhancing the atmosphere and setting time constraints. Players' familiarity with the Mythos and historical figures like Aleister Crowley or J.R.R. Tolkien enriches the experience, though not required.

Here, the terror does not build slowly; instead, from the outset, investigators are thrust into a confrontation with cosmic malevolence. Designed to last about six hours, "Pax Cthuliana" can expand into a mini-campaign with optional diversions and false leads. The endgame offers two outcomes: a conventional triumph or a jaw-dropping twist, leaving players stunned.

This scenario emphasizes atmosphere over mechanics, requiring minimal skill rolls to maintain its eerie mood. Information is concise, focusing only on what's necessary for progression. Mature content settings allow for customization of the horror level to suit different groups.

"Pax Cthuliana" seamlessly integrates historical accuracy with fantastical elements, concluding with a Fact & Fiction section for narrative flexibility. This is a campaign where knowledge and cunning triumph over brute force, offering a unique and memorable RPG experience.
