Hello, and welcome at your new wiki! Thank you for choosing Miraheze for the hosting of your wiki, and we hope you will enjoy our hosting.

Thirty plus years is a lot of time, and change is inevitable. When it began, the game was specifically tied to the themes and rules originally set out in the Call of Cthulhu rule book.
Well, that's no problem. Even if something isn't explained in the documentation/FAQ, we still are happy to help you. You can find us here:
The campaign has evolved over the years into an alternative history set in a Lovecraftian universe, featuring a secondary magic system, and the addition of creatures and concepts outside the bounds of both Lovecraft and the game system.

What you will find here is not pure Lovecraft, nor a pure Call of Cthulhu game system. But rather a vibrant world that has grown out of the contribution of many players, and still continues to enthrall and entertain.

ABOUT THE GAME

GAME HISTORY OVERVIEW

This Wiki details the history of a Call of Cthulhu campaign begun in 1981.

The campaign has been running uninterrupted since that inception date.


Thirty plus years is a lot of time, and change is inevitable. When it began, the game was specifically tied to the themes and rules originally set out in the Call of Cthulhu rule book. The campaign has evolved over the years into an alternative history set in a Lovecraftian universe, featuring a secondary magic system, and the addition of creatures and concepts outside the bounds of both Lovecraft and the game system.

What you will find here is not pure Lovecraft, nor a pure Call of Cthulhu game system. But rather a vibrant world that has grown out of the contribution of many players, and still continues to enthrall and entertain.
