Available Now!
DREADCRAWLS is the official zine for Cthulhu Awakens, the AGE roleplaying game of Mythos horror, across the Weird Century. As part of the Cthulhu Awakens Kickstarter, we funded the original issue of DREADCRAWLS—that’s Issue Zero: Strange Places, originally a backer reward, and now available for general audiences. Now we continue the DREADCRAWLS zine with its first issue intended for everyone: DREADCRAWLS One: Threatening Scenarios, available in PDF at our store and at DrivethruRPG.
DREADCRAWLS One: Threatening Scenarios provides a series of tables and procedures capable of outlining countless weird tales, by providing random options within classic story frameworks. Roll up your horrors, or cheat by choosing—only Cthulhu knows how you summoned it! This makes it an ideal tool for solo roleplayers, improvisation-heavy Game Masters, GMs looking for inspiration while the design their own scenarios, or even players interested in generating detailed inciting events for their characters.
While DREADCRAWLS uses the Cthulhu Awakens approach to the Cthulhu Mythos, this is a book of story seeds and plot details, not combat statistics or character options, making it suitable for almost any Mythos horror roleplaying game. Furthermore, if you own DREADCRAWLS Zero as well, you can generate maps to and within the bizarre and terrifying locations the stories you generate with Issue One—both are complete in themselves, but also work hand in hand.
The void compels us to package reality into stories our limited minds can understand, even when those stories take us to unknowable places. Surrender yourself to the limits of your consciousness…and roll on some tables.
