The Ultimate Backdrop for Lovecraftian Gaming
The fictional city of Arkham, Massachusetts may be one of Lovecraft's most enduring creations. It's certainly a fantastic setting for Call of Cthulhu® role playing games. Our friends at Chaosium have drastically revamped their Arkham sourcebook, packing it full of new maps, locations, NPCs and information about the town.
With 290 locations detailed across 9 neighborhoods, Call of Cthulhu: Arkham is the perfect supplement for a sandbox-style campaign. The book also contains Gossip & Rumors to use as scenario seeds, and over 80 fully-detailed NPCs with their own secrets to discover—investigators will never be without a lead to follow up on!
The book contains two Arkham city map posters (one designed for players, and one marked with hidden information for the Keeper!), as well as a poster-sized copy of the front page of the Arkham Advertiser—made by the HPLHS! Call of Cthulhu: Arkham also introduces new rules and skills for Arkham investigators.
Call of Cthulhu: Arkham is more than just a supplement for the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game. With a richly described history of both Arkham and the famous Miskatonic University, street and neighborhood maps, and hundreds of locations, this book is perfect for fans of mythos fiction, as well as any board games, card games, or stories set in the fabled city of Arkham.
