The Edge of Darkness

Post by HoneyDog »

A dying professor asks that the horror he and his friends unwittingly unleashed on the world be stopped. Unfortunately, it won't be very easy...

I plan to run this game from the 6th edition rulebook if anyone would like to join! Evil_Scientist and innsmouth have already expressed their interest, so we are looking for at least 2 more players.

That's right! Isadora Carmichael-Auden will be happy (?) to take part in a new investigation.

I believe I played this scenario a long time ago (1995). I still remember some things from it, but I've forgotten a lot of things too. If that's not a problem, I'd be happy to play.

Glad to have you Mr. Handy! That makes 4 players - yourself, evil_scientist, innsmouth and domdombear, so please set up the game thread when you're able.

You can remove The Haunting, it's all done now.

Thanks!

I'll need a short text description for the game before I can create the forum, like you'll see on the other games on the index page. You can post it here. Then I'll move The Haunting to the Hall of Fame and create a forum for Edge of Darkness. I don't expect I'll have a chance to do that until tomorrow night.

Thanks! Here you go:

The Edge of Darkness

Arkham, Massachusetts, 1928. The last dying plea of an old friend and mentor leads to an encounter with a horror beyond description. Unwittingly released into the world nearly fifty years before, it is now time to finally confront the mistakes of the past. But it will come at great cost...

A great little starter scenario. I ran this at a con a couple years ago. It was a lot of fun. So much you can do with it, don't just stick to the basic script.
Call of Cthulhu
Arkham Horror
Cthulhu Wars

The Rat's Haunting
A Star on the Shore
****************
A Dream of Japan
Watch the World Burn
Shadows over Dunwich

Sure Andy - glad to have you. Have a look at the character thread about the requirements your character will need to have. The characters are getting introduced into the story at the moment.
