Cthulhu: Two Stars – Softcover
Two stars, two secrets, and two truths that would have been better left hidden.
The adventure volume Two Stars for the Cthulhu role-playing game contains two standalone scenarios centered on extraordinary objects of eerie origin. While one “star” came to Earth from the far reaches of the universe and is trapped here, the other comes from the depths of the earth and is said to possess tremendous magical powers.
The investigators are confronted with mysterious illnesses, missing memories, and powers that elude human understanding. From a remote English canal to a gloomy coastal town, the investigations lead ever deeper into a web of secrets, manipulation, and cosmic horror.
Included Scenarios
A Star Burns Out
In this beginner-friendly scenario, the investigators are commissioned by an influential family to uncover the cause of a family member’s mysterious illness. Shortly beforehand, the affected person had spent several days traveling on a houseboat along a remote canal in England.
What at first appears to be a medical mystery soon leads to a discovery whose origin may lie far beyond the known world.
The White Star
A valuable diamond is stolen from the British Museum in London. The so-called White Star has long been said to possess extraordinary magical powers.
The trail leads the investigators to the small coastal town of Blackport, where a dangerous game of confusion begins involving stolen memories, manipulated perceptions, and unreliable recollections. But how can one follow the truth when one can no longer trust one’s own memories?
