Cthulhu City

System: Trail of Cthulhu

Author: Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan

Deadline: 15th August

Number of sessions: 1-2

Description:

You know – through certain unreliable and maddening accounts, and now through your own dreadful experience – there is a city on the eastern seaboard of the United States, in northern Massachusetts.

You do not recall seeing it on maps when you were growing up, and no-one of your acquaintance ever admitted coming from that place until you found yourself living within its eerie confines. It is a city of windowless cyclopean skyscrapers, of crumbling baroque buildings and ruins that must, impossibly, predate human habitation in this part of the world.

You know better than to go out at night, when the clouds roll in from the sea and shapes move in the sky. You know there are occasional, unpredictable streets that come and go according to some unearthly schedule, that strange black ships dock at Innsmouth to trade with the squat, ugly denizens of that neighbourhood. You know, too, that not all of your neighbours are sane – or human.

You know that this city is monstrous.

You know you cannot leave.
