 <p>Finally, and after so many years without playing a pen-and-paper RPG, this situation is coming to an end.</p> <p>Some workmates and I are finishing preparations for some <a href="https://theelderthoughts.blogs.kartones.net/post/call-of-cthulhu-rpg-coincidence-or-destiny">Call of Cthulhu roleplaying</a>!</p> <p>As some of us have not played in a long long time, and others are newcomers to RPGs, our master (keeper in the Cthulhu theme ;) has decided to start with basic rules and expand it as we progress.</p> <p>To do so, we're using the following:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.goblinoidgames.com/gore.htm">GORE (Generic Old-school Role-playing Engine)</a> as the basic ruleset, with some modifications and Cthulhu-specific tables.  </li><li><a href="http://www.chaosium.com/article.php?story_id=87">Call of Cthulhu Quickstart Rules</a>, to provide Cthulhu settings and rules to the GORE system. It is a ultra-compact version of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_of_Cthulhu_%28role-playing_game%29">standard roleplaying game</a>.  </li><li><a href="http://www.geocities.com/siliconvalley/haven/4173/byakhee.html">Byakhee</a> + the Seet Back for Call of Cthulhu, for the character generation.</li></ul> <p>We know few more details... the game will be placed in 1922 in the north of Wisconsin.</p> <p>Let's hope all goes well and we start having playing sessions each few weeks!</p>
