Join us for a one-shot RPG session in North Buffalo. Potluck snacks/drinks.

We'll be playing the Call of Cthulhu scenario "An Amaranthine Desire" from Nameless Horrors. No materials or prior knowledge of the rule set is necessary, but feel free to bring your own dice if you like. You're probably better off not googling the scenario because, if you do, you'll almost definitely see spoilers!

Pregenerated characters will be provided.

Suffolk, England, 1895. A smuggling ship approaches the shore. Assisted by locals from the nearby village of Dunwich, the crew begins unloading its cargo as a storm grows around them. Dunwich used to be a thriving port, but much of the city was claimed by the sea hundreds of years ago. Now, all that remains is a shadow of its former self. In the darkness beneath the waves, a powerful force remains, keeping a shard of the past very much alive. The investigators, as the smugglers, find themselves entering an echo of the night that sealed the fate of the city.

Call of Cthulhu is an investigator horror game in which you play a regular person, not a super hero.

These games are sometimes in high demand, so please update your RSPV as soon as you can if you signed up and realize you can no longer make it. This scenario requires at least 2 players and can handle up to 5 (6 if you include me).

More Normal Info

The house is a long walk from Amherst St Station (1.5 miles, 30 minute walk) and a short walk from Bus lines that go along Delaware Ave.

There is plenty of free street parking on Amherst St, Meadow Rd, and other nearby side streets. Please don't park in the driveway - it's narrow so you'd be blocking in the wife. She'll ask you to move.

This is a gun-free, pet-free, drug-free, smoke-free meetup. (That means don't bring those things, not that they are free. They are very expensive.)

There's a 8-year-old in the household - she doesn't spend much time around the boardgaming, but please make extra sure to look around for stray game pieces when you're packing up a game.
