  • Mi-Go 1 Mi-Go
    Mi-go 1 Mi-go An interpretation of the Mi-Go by Ruud Dirven Mi-go ("The Abominable Ones") is a Himalayan nickname for a race of extraterrestrials in the Cthulhu Mythos created by H. P. Lovecraft and others. The name was first applied to the creatures in Lovecraft's short story "The Whisperer in Darkness" (1931), elaborating on a reference to 'What fungi sprout in Yuggoth' in his sonnet cycle Fungi from Yuggoth (1929–30) which described the contrasting vegetation on alien dream-worlds. Summary The "Mi-go" are large, pinkish, fungoid, crustacean-like entities the size of a man; where a head would be, they have a "convoluted ellipsoid" composed of pyramided, fleshy rings and covered in antennae. According to two reports in the original short story, their bodies consist of a form of matter that does not occur naturally on Earth; for this reason, they do not register on ordinary photographic film. They are capable of going into suspended animation until softened and reheated by the sun or some other source of heat. They are about five feet (1.5 m) long, and their crustacean-like bodies bear numerous sets of paired appendages. They possess a pair of membranous bat-like wings which are used to fly through the "aether" of outer space (a scientific concept which is now discredited). The wings do not function well on Earth. Several other races in Lovecraft's Mythos also have wings like these. The Mi-go can transport humans from Earth to Pluto (and beyond) and back again by removing the subject's brain and placing it into a "brain cylinder", which can be attached to external devices to allow it to see, hear, and speak.

  • Pandemic – Reign of Cthulhu Is a Cooperative Game
    Beings of ancient and bizarre intelligence, known as Old Ones, are stirring within their vast cosmic prisons. If they awake into the world, it will unleash an age of madness, chaos, and destruction upon the very fabric of reality. Everything you know and love will be destroyed! You are cursed with knowledge that the “sleeping masses” cannot bear: that this Evil exists, and that it must be stopped at all costs. Shadows danced all around the gas street light above you as the pilot flame sputtered a weak yellow light. Even a small pool of light is better than total darkness, you think to yourself. You check your watch again for the third time in the last few minutes. Where was she? Had something happened? The sound of heels clicking on pavement draws your eyes across the street. Slowly, as if the darkness were a cloak around her, a woman comes into view. Her brown hair rests in a neat bun on her head and glasses frame a nervous face. Her hands hold a large manila folder with the words INNSMOUTH stamped on the outside in blocky type lettering. “You’re late,” you say with a note of worry in your voice, taking the folder she is handing you. “I… I tried to get here as soon as I could.” Her voice is tight with fear, high pitched and fast, her eyes moving nervously without pause. “You know how to fix this?” The question in her voice cuts you like a knife. “You can… make IT go away?!” You wince inwardly as her voice raises too loudly at that last bit, a nervous edge of hysteria creeping into her tone.

  • The H. P. Lovecraft Tarot
    The H. P. Lovecraft Tarot This interesting tarot deck was originally published in 1997 in a limited run and sold our fairly quickly, making it one of the most sought-after tarot decks on the market. This is one of the rare cases where you will actually hear these words: "Due to popular demand." This deck is the second printing from 2000, it is a blue deck, the 1st prinitng was red. Collectors take note! Each card in the deck is done in a dark, blue (1st printing) then red (2nd printing). Monochromatic decks appeal to me very much! The image is centered in the card and on the average has a lot of good detail which is easy enough to see. The border is also in the dark blue colour, but there is not enough contrast in this printing to clearly make out the text on the borders. You can see that it is there though, but you have to hold the cards fairly close to the light and angle them around a bit until you have made out each word. In the top center of the border is an eye. Pentacles are on the sides and the title at the bottom; the four corners have the suit icon itself on each card. Fortunately the little booklet has a legend in the back which shows the suit icons more clearly. In this deck, the figures of the Major Arcana are taken from various works of Lovecraft himself. The booklet that comes with this deck stresses that the Major Arcana cards have more power and influence over a reading than the Minor Arcana.

  • Al Azif - the Cipher Manuscript Known
    Al Azif - The Cipher Manuscript known as "Necronomicon" Notes regarding this Etext edition This etext version of the book, Al Azif has been entered into Hypertext by Ken Ottinger over the course of some few months. This project was completely funded by the Universal Life Trust. The reason for the project was the realization that so many people were fascinated by H.P. Lovecraft and the Cthulhu Mythos. Reading the newsgroups alt.necronomicon and alt.necromicon and seeing so many requests for an online copy of the Necronomicon, and the n seeing the arguments and debates as to whether the text actually existed or not prompted me to search out the research work of Colin Wilson, George Hay, Robert Turner and David Langford. These men, publishing through CORGI Books of Chaucer Press, Ltd., Great Britain, provided a translation of a cipher manuscript of Dr. John Dee's called Liber Logaeth, a portion of a larger manuscript, the origin and nature of which is not known. Due to its history and the similarity in content to the Cthulhu Mythos, this document has been presented by these men as being, at least a portion of, the document which was the inspiration for HPL's Necronomicon. Because of copyright restrictions, I have included only quotes from the original manuscript used in the CORGI edition. The bulk of this etext edition is the text of the manuscript Liber Logaeth which has been translated to date.

  • The Apocalypse
    ACT III – THE APOCALYPSE APOCALYPSE MOOD HOPEFUL BEATS You catch sight of a mother nursing a newborn, clearly born since the apocalypse began. You find an apple in your pocket that you remember putting there only now that you see it again. It’s still good, crisp and sweet. A young woman passing in the other direction looks up into your eyes and must see the depth of the despair that haunts you, because she reaches out suddenly, takes your hand, and says simply, “It’s going to be OK.” Before smiling ever so briefly and moving on before you can say anything. You can see a chicken cross the road. You look again: Yes. A chicken, a road. You laugh out load. SINISTER BEATS You run your hands through your hair, and they come away dusted with the infernal ash that blankets the whole world, an inescapable reminder of everything horrible, your whole universe crashing down around you. You come around a corner, and a desperate man, unshaven for a month, hair unkempt, points a trembling knife at your chest and demands any food you have on you. But then his knife falls out of his hand, and he runs away from you, sobbing. You walk through a stinking cloud, the smell of sulfur catching in your throat and making you gag. You’re jarred from slumber into terrified wakefulness by a crack of thunder. Your heart pounds. It will probably be an hour before you can find the realm of sleep again.

This section contains corrections and clarifications to the rules. If a player casts a spell that allows for more than one die to be secured, they must decide how many dice to secure on the spell card in the moment the Adventure cards spell is cast. They cannot add other dice at a later time. For example, when Game effects that refer to “Adventure cards” can affect any of the Adventure casting “Dread Curse of Azathoth”, up to two dice may be secured, but the cards in play (including Other World adventure cards), while effects decision must be made the moment the spell is cast. targeting specific subset of adventure cards (such as Arkham adventure If a die becomes locked while secured on a spell, that die is removed from cards, or Other World adventure cards) refer only to that subset of cards. the spell and locked. If the spell then has no dice on it, it is discarded. Entry effects Terror results secured on dice do not trigger terror effects.
