Modern Mythos with Jon and Seth Modern Mythos - ep.39
In this episode, Jon and Seth discuss the epic awesomeness that is PULP CTHULHU!!!
Dastardly villains and bold heroes! Investigate the Mythos with jet packs, telepathy, and tommy guns! Seth is well experienced in running Call of Cthulhu campaigns using the Pulp Cthulhu rules. The player's heroes are hardier and more apt to survive their brushes with the horrors. While Jon has almost zero experience with Pulp Cthulhu. Listen in as Jon sits at the feet of the wizened master, Seth, to learn the secrets of Pulp Cthulhu!
SHOW SPONSOR:
Jolene, by Rina Haenze. Jolene is a modern day scenario intended to be completed in a single four-hour session of play. The investigators have been drawn to Santa Cruz, California, to help a love-lorn woman. She was spurned by her lover when a mysterious woman, Jolene, stole him from her. The investigators soon learn that this is not an isolated incident.
Be warned, this scenario contains depictions of mental illness, addictions, drug use, homelessness, strong emotional trauma, potential drowning, body horror, death, potential homicide, PTSD, and potential player-vs-player action. Jolene includes four pre-generated investigators and a custom Bout of Madness table for this scenario set in 2019.
The author, Rina Haenze, also includes tips on how this scenario can be run more intimately, with greater potential for true horror, as a one-on-one game â one Keeper and one player. Jolene is available now on DriveThruRPG for only $6.
