Rise of the Dead 2: The Raid (BRP)
This is a convention scenario with highly detailed characters and handouts intended for a theatrical style presentation in a single long session.
It is approximately 6:00 a.m. on March 26th¸ during the most horrific year of your life.
A red comet nearly struck the earth¸ entering orbit¸ and breaking the known laws of physics in the process. Thousands of fragments of various sizes struck all over the earth¸ causing tremendous damage. The extent of the damage is unknown¸ but is presumed to be apocalyptic in scale.
The brown rain stopped about 4 or 5 days ago. The red eye of the comet appears through occasional rents in the near-perpetual cloud cover.
You and your hodge-podge band of survivors struggle to survive under apocalyptic conditions.
NOTE: This is the second in a series of b-movie style post-apocalyptic scenarios for Call of Cthulhu set in the very near future¸ for 4-6 players. Play in the prior scenario is not required. This game can be played in a single 5-7 hour session.
MISKATONIC UNIVERSITY LIBRARY ASSOCIATION monographs are longer works by one or more authors on a subject of import to Call of Cthulhu roleplayers. On these products the author has also fulfilled the functions of editor and layout artist; we at Chaosium have done little in the way of editorial. We found these works compelling and thought that you would enjoy them. Through the publication of monographs we can offer our most loyal fans more information more easily¸ and evaluate the potential of these works for eventual release to the wholesale market.
