Call of Cthulhu: Mysteries of Ireland
$17.95 SRP
From
the hills the fairies whisper to lone strangers, “come join the dance”.
Watching from beneath the waves are the Merrow, the dwellers of the deep.
Strange noises and half-heard screams ring at night from the cellars of the
towns and villages. The unwary go missing in the wilds, the locals say “Pooka”,
and shake their heads. Fires are lit on the mountainsides and bones are cast
into the flames; a young woman sits in a trance as ectoplasm oozes from her
mouth, and she speaks of times-past in a voice that is not her own. All these
things and more are waiting on this Celtic Isle. This is a land of roaring
seas, deep lakes, green pastures, barren bogs, and heather-topped mountains.
Mysteries
of Ireland is a source book for the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game. It is a
guide for playing games and running scenarios in 1920s Ireland. This book
contains information on life in Ireland during this period and includes Irish
Myths, Legends and Superstitions, the Occult, and the Mythos. There is detailed
information for Dublin and Belfast, two new investigator occupations: Tinkers
and WWI Veterans, several new creatures, and three new scenarios.
Miskatonic
University Library Association monographs are longer works by one or more
authors on a subject of import to Call of Cthulhu roleplayers. On these
products the author has also fulfilled the functions of editor and layout
artist; we at Chaosium have done little in the way of editorial. We found these
works compelling and thought that you would enjoy them. Through the publication
of monographs we can offer our most loyal fans more information more easily,
and evaluate the potential of these works for eventual release to the wholesale
market.
