Try as i might i haven't been able to manipulate someone into doing a Call of Cthulhu campaign. So then it is left to me to enlighten you pathetic fools of the Cthulhu Mythos, for on this "placid island of ignorance" in which we live there is more in heaven and earth then is dreamed of in your philosophy...Horatio. Step up then if you dare the truth is there if you dig hard enough. But beware the search for the truth may be your undoing, who knows what lies in the dark reaches of the world, do you stare into the abyss or does the abyss stare into you?

(must own CoC d20 version, price of admission $5 dollars, no i need a new mixing board make that $500. This campaign is rated M and is recommended for mature audiences you must be at least 3 years old to participate)

4 investigators, i'm thinking the late 1930's early 1940's you know Nazi's. indiana jones type deal except Jones goes psycho and kills everyone. I'm tossing up between a few settings like egypt or the amazon. Character creation i'll deal with uh... soon provided people show enough interest.

Private Paul Simmons of the Australian Light Horse - Egpyt Division reporting for duty! Why i'll swat those Nazi's with my trusty Lee-Enfield while I sing Waltzing Matilda to my horse Lilly.

i'm sorry but your too damn..ah blond
i mean welcome aboard of course it's nice to have more then one character prepared. This light infantry member wouldn't happen to be a runner would he?

Of course not Sir, We arn't runners. My unit came under fire from a German Panzer division, in the chaos of the battle with the Jerries I was knocked unconscience and when I awoke me and Lilly where out in the middle of no where. :)

Seems the Gallipoli reference went down. So your Australian Light infantry and you actually got a horse?

Now the joke makes sense, frighteningly real and sad, but it makes sense. Truely the dry sarcastic humour only Aussies have. :)

while i could run it with one person, i'm not gonna after all there's only so many times that you can kill a person before it's no longer funny. So if noone else turns up i guess there will be no unspeakable creautres or friends having their insides eaten out by parasitic beings.

I mentioned to Cadogan that I could start up a spot up over at my forums. The place needs some life to it. :)

Or maybe just threatening to will make him stop paying attention to girls and come back to where the real action is.
