Three Adventures From Gentler Times

The CTHULHU MASTERS TOURNAMENT 2005 contains three scenarios presented during that year's GenCon.

LORD AND BEAST: set in early WWII (June 1942) in the South Pacific, and interpreting the setting of William Golding’s Lord of the Flies, beginning when the adult rescuers arrive to save British boys stranded by a plane crash on a desert isle.

ELECTRIC BUCKEYES: based upon the story of the Ohio State Prison Fire of 1930. A few factors make this an interesting and challenging event on which to base a CMT round. There is some mystery surrounding the actual cause of the fire. The Ohio State Penitentiary has a dark and mysterious history. The controlled environment of a prison allows for very good roleplaying opportunities.

HOBO QUEST: the characters journey across the U.S. as hoboes riding the rails. They are driven to commit desperate and horrible acts to satisfy inner demons. They learn terrible truths as the adventure progresses.

MISKATONIC UNIVERSITY LIBRARY ASSOCIATION monographs are longer works by one or more authors on a subject of import to Call of Cthulhu roleplayers. On these products the author has also fulfilled the functions of editor and layout artist; we at Chaosium have done little in the way of editorial. We found these works compelling and thought that you would enjoy them. Monographs are digitally reproduced small run publications. We do provide a cover illustration. Through the publication of monographs we can offer our most loyal fans more information more easily, and evaluate the potential of these works for eventual release to the wholesale market.
