Howdy everyone. I've never played CoC but I have wanted to for quite a while now. I have a character sheet done (well most of it) and I would like to join a new game and learn how to play!

And if anyone can, help me finish my character

Welcome, Crow! I've validated you, so now you can post on the game boards. You'd be welcome to join any or all of my games, though all of them are well underway and only one is currently active. That one is The Shadow Over Dunwich, the third adventure in my Doctor Who/Call of Cthulhu campaign, which is a UNIT adventure set in 1985 Dunwich, England. No knowledge of the first two adventures is needed to play, but you can read them in the Hall of Fame if you like. You don't even need to do any catching up if you join, as I can introduce a new UNIT character at this point. If you don't mind doing back reading, there are a couple of abandoned characters, and you could take over one. We're approaching the endgame, which will hopefully be completed within a few months. After that, I plan to start the fourth adventure, a Cthulhu Invictus scenario set in the late Roman Republic that I call The Brotherhood of Death. However, I doubt that will start until next year.

I also run Zombie Apocalypse, a modern near-future non-Mythos game, though with a similar mythology. However, none of the players have posted in nearly a month. There was also Space Oddity, based on Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes and set in 1969 Philadelphia, but that has been dead for several months, as all of the players have disappeared.

There are a number of other games here, some of which are looking for new players. You can look in "I'm Thinking of Running a Game..." and "Existing Games Looking for Players." You can also run a scenario of your own if you feel up to it.

I'm hoping to run a classic era game coming up here soon, if I get enough players. It's a homemade scenario, and works fine with new players (this'll be my second run of it).

If you might be interested, throw a reply in the thread here.
