CANIS MYSTERIUM A Scenario With Bite Constable Clark, of Coldwater Falls, was desperate for attention. He’d been in touch with every sanatorium and hospital from New York to Boston and there’s not an empty bed to be found since the stock market crash last year. They’re full to brimming with suicidal businessmen and investors. He’s holding a man in his jail exhibiting some rather... extraordinary behaviors. The delusion is complete and total — he walks on all fours and he won’t speak a word. They say he even eats out of a bowl and refuses utensils! Not a shred of human behavior left in him. The man attacked a young girl before he was discovered. He was found... well.. gnawing on part of her leg! Canis Mysterium is an adventure scenario for the Call of Cthulhu™ roleplaying system designed to be played in one or more gaming sessions. This scenario is suitable as an introduction to a new campaign or can easily be worked into [...]

CALL OF CTHULHU 7th Edition Horror Roleplaying in the Worlds of H. P. Lovecraft By Sandy Petersen with Mike Mason, Paul Fricker, and Lynn Willis The Great Old Ones ruled the earth aeons before the rise of humankind. Originally they came from the gulfs of space and were cast down by even greater beings. Remains of their cyclopean cities and forbidden knowledge can still be found on remote islands in the Pacific, buried amid the shifting sands of vast deserts, and in the frigid recesses of the polar extremes. Now they sleep -- some deep within the enveloping earth and others beneath the eternal sea, in the drowned city of R'lyeh, preserved in the waters by the spells of mighty Cthulhu. When the stars are right they will rise, and once again walk this Earth. CALL OF CTHULHU is Chaosium’s classic roleplaying game of Lovecraftian horror, in which ordinary people are confronted by the terrifying and alien forces of the Cthulhu Mythos. CALL OF CTHULHU [...]

By TARA CHISLETT chislett.taralynn@dailygleaner.com Attention capital region comic book lovers: if you're looking to pick up a unique addition to your collection while helping a worthy cause, the manager of Strange Adventures is hoping to see you at the shop this weekend. The comic book and collectible shop, located downtown on York Street, will be auctioning off about three dozen comics with one-of-a-kind covers designed by Maritime artists Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. as a fundraiser for the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital Foundation. Store manager Jason Arnold said the idea for the auction came in December, when the store received a number of comics with blank covers from Marvel Entertainment. A relatively recent development in comic publishing, Arnold said the idea behind the blank, cardstock covers is that fans can purchase the comic and take it to conventions for their favourite artists to draw on. But, with Christmas around the corner, Arnold said he started wondering if there was a way the blank [...]
