Scouts Against the Mythos!
Call of Cthulhu: Campfire Tales enables players to take on the role of scout-investigators as they come face-to-face with dangers beyond this world. This is a great way to bring younger players to the world of table-top role playing games. The violence and madness of Call of Cthulhu are here replaced by a game that's more spooky that outright terrifying.
The book contains new rules for creating young investigators, including new skills and special systems for using scout Merit Badges and Adversity. Also included are rules for taking your scout-investigators to adulthood, ready to progress on to other Call of Cthulhu campaigns as fully fledged investigators!
An all-new 1920s era campaign setting. Call of Cthulhu: Campfire Tales outlines the key locations across the town, and the various key characters within the setting. Westhaven is also focus of the scenarios in the book.
The book contains four adventures which can be played separately or linked together into a small campaign: Tremors Below, Box of Evil, Treasure of the Secret Way and The Shadow Over Westhaven. A variety of downloads are also available from the Chaosium site, including character sheets, pregenerated characters, PDF handouts and more!
