Thinking about Trail of Cthulu
Jul. 6th, 2010 03:41 pmI've been noodling some Trail of Cthulu (esque) campaign ideasm and debating whetehr to flesh them out and see interest. Gaming with the kids has generated other interest in me in gaming.
The Mekong River Expedition of 1933 (Mother Khong carry me….)
Stretching from the Tibetan Plateau this river runs through China's Yunnan province, Burma, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam the Mekong is one of the world’s major rivers. Yet in 1933 its headwaters in the Tibetan plateau is unknown and still one of the great geographical mysteries of the world. A new expedition is being mounted and you are preparing to take part.
This Trail of Cthulu campaign will be geographically bounded on this river, transporting through a contentious region and navigating a juxtaposition of empire and mythos.
Salad Days
The Rosenbluth Center is a rarity in Depression era New York, opening just recently by a leading banker. Its purported purpose is an explortation of the arts, especially Shakespeare and old books. Its founder has ruthlessly gathered private libraries and archives and has invited/hired leading scholars, actors and artists to explore them.
This Trail of Cthulu campaign will involve the mysteries of the book and art, and the madness they bring.
