TRAIL OF CTHULHU

Introduction

The dubious tome you hold in yourhands offers you a different kind ofMythos experience. It’s not aboutremote inbred towns, or swamp altars,or lost prehuman ruins, but about acity of cinemas, electric lights, global

power and the height of fashion. It’sabout the horrors – the cancers – thatlurk in London, in the very beatingheart of human civilization. Of course,London has its decaying, inbredpopulations – both East End drabs andWest End aristocrats. A Templar altar

might well crouch, mostly forgotten,in the dreary Hackney Marshes, but altars to false gods tower overthe metaphorical swamps of FleetStreet and Whitehall. And as for lost,prehuman ruins … who’s to say what

lies under London, if you dig deepenough?

Your characters aren’t stalwart G-menor tweedy scholars this time around,serving their country or sealing offforbidden frontiers. They’re working

the main chance, and selling maps (andmaybe guidebooks) to those forbiddenfrontiers. They are Bookhounds,looking for profit in mouldy vellumand leather bindings, balancing theirown books by finding first editions

for Satanists and would-be sorcerers.They may not quite know what theytraffic in, or they may know rather better than their clientele. Peddlersof blasphemy and madness aren’t nicepeople, and the only consolation isthat their customers are worse yet.

“THESE CYCLES OF EXPERIENCE, OF COURSE, ALL STEM FROM THAT WORM-RIDDLED BOOK. I REMEMBER WHEN I

FOUND IT – IN A DIMLY LIGHTED PLACE NEAR THE BLACK, OILY RIVER WHERE THE MISTS ALWAYS SWIRL. THAT

PLACE WAS VERY OLD, AND THE CEILING-HIGH SHELVES FULL OF ROTTING VOLUMES REACHED BACK ENDLESSLY

THROUGH WINDOWLESS INNER ROOMS AND ALCOVES. THERE WERE, BESIDES, GREAT FORMLESS HEAPS OF BOOKS

ON THE FLOOR AND IN CRUDE BINS; AND IT WAS IN ONE OF THESE HEAPS THAT I FOUND THE THING.”

– THE BOOK



TRAIL OF CTHULHU

Bookhounds

In a Bookhounds of London campaign,the Investigators do not investigatehorror and strangeness professionally.Rather, they investigate books abouthorror and strangeness and become,seemingly inevitably, drawn into the

horror themselves. If they could just sell a pristine copy of the 1845Bridewell edition of Nameless Cults,pocket their 40% (or 400%) andmove on, they would. But it’s neverthat simple. Not for them. Not forBookhounds. Not in London. Notnow.

The global Depression has driven anunprecedented number of collectors – both individual and inst itutional –to sell off their holdings for whatever

they can get. The global crisis has alsodriven an unprecedented number ofover-educated, morally bankruptaristocrats and resentful would-beGreat Beasts to experiment with black magic … including the CthulhuMythos. Between the two groups,sellers and buyers, a specialty markethas sprung up in blasphemous tomes,no questions asked.

You cater to that market, finding

competent: indeed, the world shouldseem on the verge of over-masteringthem even before the Mi-Go crashthe book-swap.

Keepers might want to reduce buildpoints for General skills from 65 to55.

For properly dodgy desperation, allBookhound Credit Ratings should be capped at 4, and all Bookhoundsshould begin with no free ratingpoints in Credit Rating. Playersmay still build aristocratic characters, but they will be from families longgone to seed, or horrible black sheepno longer invited to decent par ties.

OccupationsThe Bookhounds are people active inLondon’s underground trade in occult books (and possibly in other dubiousliteratures such as pornography).They will likely come from one of thefollowing Occupations: Antiquarian,Criminal, Dilettante, Hobo (called“Tramp” in this campaign frame), orPrivate Investigator. That said,Artists, Authors, Clergymen,and Professors might easily findthemselves involved.

New OccupationsPlayers may also select from amongthe following new Occupations,some of which are functionallycustomised versions of the corebookset: Bookseller is a specialisedAntiquarian, Forger is a specialisedCriminal, and so forth.

Some Credit Rating bands exceed

books at estate sales or abandonedchurches across the Home Counties,tracking down rumors and doingyour competitors dirt. You’ve hadto learn the difference betweenthe 1452 and the 1472 editions of

Wormius, and why neither should be opened at Ludgate, or anywhereduring a full moon. Sometimes youtouch up an imperfect von Junzt, andsometimes you might liberate a Prinnfirst edition from an insufficientlycaring owner.

It’s a hard old world out there, andmayhap the hardest thing about it isthat you have to save it from yourown customers now and again.

Creating aBookhoundWhile every campaign will bedifferent, the atmosphere ofthe default Bookhounds of London campaign is a sort of seedy scrabblingon the verge of disaster. Investigators(called Bookhounds in thiscampaign) shouldn’t feel broadly

“BUT NOW, AT LAST, HE HAD NOT ONLY FOUND AN ACCESSIBLE COPY

BUT HAD MADE IT HIS OWN AT A LUDICROUSLY LOW FIGURE…. THE ONE

GLIMPSE HE HAD HAD OF THE TITLE WAS ENOUGH TO SEND HIM INTO

TRANSPORTS, AND SOME OF THE DIAGRAMS SET IN THE VAGUE LATIN

TEXT EXCITED THE TENSEST AND MOST DISQUIETING RECOLLECTIONS IN

HIS BRAIN.” – THE DESCENDANT



Bookhounds’ Contactsand Connections

As noted on p. 31 of theTrail of Cthulhu corebook, usingBureaucracy, Cop Talk,Credit Rating, Streetwise, and many other abilities involvesmaking a contact. Some of thespecial abilities of Book Scouts,Catalogue Agents, Forgers, andOccultists – all of which havespecial sources of information orpotential access to them – likewisedepend on personal contacts.(As do many other Occupations,

either implicitly or explicitly.)These contacts should go on yourcampaign’s dramatis personaelist (see 154), so that they may be rousted during player-drivenadventures and hooked by theKeeper for her own fell purposes.

Unofficial, non-academicinvestigators – such as theBookhounds – depend moreheavily on contacts andconnections than in somecampaigns. At character creation,the Keeper might request eachplayer begin with one contacttied to an Occupation ability: a book scout might know a fence(Streetwise), a booksellermight know a librarian at theMuseum (Library Use), anoccultist might know a grave-robber (Archaeology), etc.This can help create player-driven adventures (see p.92)right from the beginning of thecampaign.

In addition to the data

requested in the corebook(name, residence – a road orneighbourhood is fine – andconnexion to the Bookhound),the player should supply theKeeper with any contact’s bibliographic interests. This helps bulk out auctions, fertilise futureadventures, and keeps everyonethinking about books.

the suggested campaign cap ofCredit Rating 4. This makes theseOccupations more playable in other,non-Bookhounds campaigns if theKeeper wishes.

Book Scout

You resent terms like “bottom-feeder.” Without you, books wouldn’tget from the tables and shelves of theunappreciative to the kind of shopswhere they belong. You find booksat lesser bookshops or estate sales orwherever it might be, obtain them – by subterfuge, by feigned disinterest, by “five-finger discount” if the Devildrives – and re-sell them to a better bookshop for more money. I f you’repressed, maybe you just cut away thecoloured plates or the maps for quick

sale. But you’d rather get the bookscheap, and sell them dear, and go outagain before some bottom-feeder beats you to the next unconsideredtrifle.

Occupational Abilities: Auction, Bargain, Bibliography, EvidenceCollection, Filch, Sense Trouble,Streetwise, The Knowledge.

Credit Rating: 0-3

Special: You are always thefirst Bookhound to notice aninconspicuous clue (Trail of Cthulhu,

p. 55) in a bookshop, library, orsimilar environment.

If there are two book scouts in aplayer group, the Keeper decideswho gets the inconspicuous clue asnormal.

You can also pick up juicy gossipon bibliophiles, auctions, and streetmarkets by dickering with booksellersand fellow book-scouts (Bargain)or with touts in the underground book trade (Streetwise).

BooksellerYou live surrounded by books, andyou draw your living from them.Perhaps you see them as living thingsin their turn; with destinies entwinedwith a given customer, or capable ofspeaking to a sensitive reader andchanging his life. Or perhaps yousee them as horrible relatives you

can’t get away from: draining yourenergies and resources with onlygrudging acknowledgement of yourneeds. Or it might be that you fellinto the job because it was light workindoors.

Occupational Abilities: Auction,Accounting, Art History, Bargain,Bibliography, Document Analysis,Languages, Library Use, TextualAnalysis.

Credit Rating: 2-5

Special: You own or manage theparty’s bookshop. You may decideshop policy: which books to steal,which to sell, which to destroy;whether to move the shop, attendan auction, etc. In short, you are the“party leader,” if you wish to be, atleast where the shop is concerned.(You can always fob this responsibilityoff, just like real leaders do.) If



Occupations

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

there are two booksellers in theBookhound group, whichever of youhas the higher Credit Rating is the

owner or manager.

You also have the same special abilityas an Antiquarian (Trail of Cthulhu,p. 10), although the BookshopStock pools (15) will overlapwith this special ability to someextent. See that section for furtherdetails.

Catalogue AgentYou might represent a secret buyer atauction, be the go-between for twodealers who don’t trust each other,or simply be retained by a collectorto find (and obtain) a much-soughtitem. A less disreputable book scout,a bibliophile’s private eye, you takeyour commission from buyer, fromseller, or from both: in a phrase, youare “a mercenary of books.”

Occupational Abilities: AssessHonesty, Auction, Bargain,

Bibliography, Conceal, Disguise,Flattery, Library Use, and any oneInvestigative ability as a personalspecialty.

Credit Rating: 1-4

Special: If you have (or can believablyclaim to have) a copy of a book theyseek, you can interact with bibliophileNPCs of any Credit Rating as if youshared their Credit Rating: get themto recommend contacts, do small

favours, allow you into their club asa guest, or otherwise smooth yourpath. (The Keeper will likely wish torestrict this ability to non-financialtransactions.) You do not have anyextra Credit Rating pool points tospend, however.

Either the player or the Keepercan suggest the book in question,depending on whether the NPC’staste in books has been previously

she is within her rights to rejectderailing suggestions.

You can also use Streetwise to findout the “true bill” on underworldrumours, especially about book anddocument thefts.

OccultistYou always knew there wassomething else, something more tothe world than the crude lies andvague approximations of history,religion, and materialism. There isan inner truth, and you are insideits threshold. You might be aRosicrucian, an esoteric Freemason,a student of ancient wisdom or ofnew revelation. Perhaps your morerecent investigations have overturnedyour previous approximations … but you were certainly right aboutthe failure and short-sightedness ofconventional wisdom!

Occupational Abilities: Anthropology, Archaeology,

Cryptography, History, Languages,Occult, Theology.

Credit Rating: 1-5

Special: You know the occultsocial scene in London, in Britain,and (most probably) anywhere elseyou happen to visit in the courseof the campaign. Arcane scholars,eccentric anthropologists withwild theories, Satanists, ritualmagicians, Theosophists, and other

sorts accept you as “one of them”and will exchange gossip, tips, andother useful social connections orknowledge.

With fellow occultists, or whendealing with the occult social scene,you can use and spend Occult as ifit were any Interpersonal skill. TheKeeper will probably ask you to justify(by roleplaying or pre-planning, ifno other way) borderline cases such

established, which of you has a goodidea, etc. The Keeper can always vetoa suggested book.

ForgerYou do the world a service: youincrease the supply of somethingprecious and desired. Thanks to you,there is one more priceless Audubonportfolio or Poe octavo, one moreDumas autograph or Rosicrucian letterin the world. Thought of correctly,you’re more artist than criminal,more publisher than cheat.

Occupational Abilities: Art:Calligraphy, Art: Engraving,Art: Printing, Chemistry, Craft:Bookbinding, Craft: Papermaking,Document Analysis, Forgery,Streetwise.

Credit Rating: 1-4

Special: For every rating point youhave in Forgery, you may declarethat you’re “the last word” in one

specific type of forged book ordocument: American passports, Blakeilluminations, black-letter Germanreligious texts, or Satanist grimoires.By narrative fiat, your work in thatfield cannot be detected as a forgeryunder any circumstances short of yourconfession. It is perfect.

Like Driving, Languages, and othersimilar abilities, you may want tokeep “slots” open so that during anadventure you can exclaim: “Byron’s

handwriting? Nobody does a better LordB. than meself, and you can ask anyone. Iknow where we can get a quire of Regency

foolscap to hatch it on, too. I’m the lastword on the topic.”

The Keeper need not allow “Mythostomes” (or “Bank of England notes”)as a suitable type for this ability, but“von Junzt’s handwriting” might bepermissible, or “8th-century Arabiccodices.” As with any special ability,



Occupational ChangesAmerican and British

Investigators both confront theglobal horrors of the Mythos.However, some of Britain’sspecifics are slightly differentfrom those in the Trail ofCthulhu corebook:

Clergy: Anglican clergymay take Bureaucracyinstead of one existingoccupational ability. They mayuse Bureaucracy as well asReassurance or Theology touse their special ability and

gain access to Anglican Churchrecords.

Dilettante: Must spend1 build point on Languages tocover Latin learned at a goodpublic school. May spend 1more build point on Languagesto cover (classical) Greek.

Hobo: Called a Tramp inBritain. Tramps may take TheKnowledge as an occupationalability; unlike American hobos,they have no special abilityto make contacts or find outthe lay of the land. They may,however, use Streetwise toidentify doors and gates “usuallyleft unlocked” (narrativelysimilar to Locksmith), anduse their Streetwise pool asthough it were Stealth whenpiggybacking with otherInvestigators on a Stealth testin an urban area.

Police Detective: Firearms

is not an occupational abilityfor police in Britain. They mayeither take The Knowledgeor Weapons, reflecting theubiquitous truncheon (-1damage), as an occupationalability instead.

Professor: Must use twoLanguages slots for Latin andGreek.

An Occultist might “in actuality” be

an antiquarian, author, dilettante,doctor, professor, or any other sort ofoccupation. Nevertheless, Occultistcharacters use the Occultist specialability rather than the Occupationability related to whatever it actuallysays on their visiting card or InlandRevenue form.

as Interrogation. (That said, claiming

to represent the displeased SecretMasters has a distinguished pedigreein occult interpersonal relations.)

This ability does not necessarilywork on Mythos cultists, zeroSanity magi, and other devotees ofthe Great Old Ones and their ilk – but the cold shoulder or misleadingpointer you get from them mayprove informative in its own right!

Document Analysis

(Technical)You’re an expert in the study of physicaldocuments (as opposed to the contents of atext). You can:

• determine a document’s approximate age• identify the manufacturer of paper used in a

document• tell forged documents from the real thing• identify distinctive handwriting• match typed documents to the typewriters

that produced them

• nd ngerprints on paper

Forgery (Technical)You can create a false document, forgehandwriting with a sample to work from, or(given time) fake an entire book. This abilitydoes not convey any special skill at creating“aged” paper or ink, or at bookbinding, orany ability to write or otherwise create agiven volume.

Textual Analysis (Academic)By studying the content of texts (asopposed to their physical characteristics asdocuments) you can draw reliable inferencesabout their authorship. You can:

• determine if an anonymous text is the work ofa known author, based on samples of his work

• determine the era in which a text was written• identify the writer’s region, and level of

education

• tell a real work by an author from a false one

The Knowledge (Academic)Since 1865, London cab drivers have been tested by The Knowledge ofLondon Examination System, or “TheKnowledge” for short, covering 320routes through the city, encompassing25,000 streets within a six-mile radius ofCharing Cross Road. With this ability, youknow the streets of London like the back ofa cab-driver’s hand. You can:

New AbilitiesMuch as The Esoterrorists expands the basic

GUMSHOE abilities list to detail the varioustechnical wizardries of the postmodernpolicier, this campaign frame benefitsfrom the addition of focused book-specificabilities, and one specific to London.

Auction (General)You know how to handle yourself inan auction. You remain unflustered andfocused on the flow of the bidding, alivefor the chance to snatch a lot from awealthier but clumsier bidder. You alsoknow the various underhanded tricksof the auction trade, and how to spotthem being deployed in the room.

This ability also includes auctioneering,the art of running an auction andof utilising the aforementionedunderhanded tricks. If the auctioneerhas an Auction rating of 8 or more, hereveals any spend last (see p. 26).

See p. 24 for more detailed auction

rules, and some underhanded tricks.

Bibliography (Academic)You’re an expert on books from an aesthetic,historical, commercial, and technical pointof view. You can:

• distinguish real tomes from forgeries• tell when a book has been retouched or

altered, or pages have been tipped in orotherwise placed where they were notoriginally

• identify the age of a book by style andmaterials

• call to mind historical details on famousbooks, printers, bookbinders, and publishers,and those around them

• recall details of book sales and auctions, andaccurately price a given book

• know or estimate what libraries (institutionalor private) might hold a specic volume

DrivesOf the Drives provided in the Trail

of Cthulhu corebook, Antiquarianism,Artistic Sensitivity, Bad Luck, Curiosity,and In the Blood seem particularlyapropos for Bookhounds.

Bookhounds may not share the sameexalted or artistic motives as standardInvestigators. The Keeper should allowunworthy motivations as Drives, shouldthe players wish to portray thoroughgoingrotters. Arrogance and Revenge canencompass social climbing, envy, or allmanner of pettiness; for other unsavouryDrives, use the following new Drive as amodel.

Greed“But business is business, and to a robber

whose soul is in his profession, there

is a lure and a challenge about a very

old and very feeble man who has no

account at the bank, and who pays for

his few necessities at the village store

with spanish gold and silver minted two

centuries ago.”

– The Terrible Old Man

You know what’s wrong with poverty?Everything. You will do anything to stayout of the gutter, especially includingshoving someone else into it. It’s hardtimes, my friend, and they’re only gettingharder for the soft. If you can see a chanceat the ready, you’d best grab it before

some other gutter rat snatches it away andleaves you on the pavement.

Especially appropriate for: Archaeologist, Book Scout, CatalogueAgent, Criminal, Dilettante, Tramp.

Examples: Ricci, Czanek, and Silva in“The Terrible Old Man,” and Obed Marsh in“The Shadow Over Innsmouth.”

• recall details of any landmark, bookstoreor other business, club, restaurant, library,attraction, or other point of interest in the

London area, including clientele, hours ofoperation, management, and rear entrances

• nd the fastest, least-observed, or otherwisebest route between any two points in London,by car, bus, or train

• recall social, ethnic, or economic details ofany London neighbourhood or street – wholives there, where they came from, who collectsthe rent

• identify important social or business guresassociated with any London neighbourhoodor street: criminals, clergy, union leaders,rising politicians, tradesmen, professionals, etc.

• know anything else about London geographythat seems relevant: sewer lines, hidden rivers,roofed-over mews, empty lots, etc.

New Abilities for Old OccupationsThe Keeper may allow other characters to take these new abilities

as Occupational abilities. In all cases, taking one of these abilities eitherreplaces one pre-existing Occupational ability, or takes up one slot inthe case of Occupations with multiple-choice Occupational abilities. Forexample, a Criminal might swap Forgery in for Intimidation, or simplyuse Forgery as his “one other Interpersonal or Technical ability as a personalspecialty.”

Auction: Available to Antiquarians and Dilettantes as an Occupationalability.

Bookshop StockDuring character creation, every playe

must spend Investigative build points onBookshop Stock, the specific amountdepending on the number of regularly-attending players:

Number ofplayers

InvestigativeBuild Points forBookshop Stock

2 3

3 2

4+ 1

The resulting Bookshop Stock poocan be used in two ways: to creatededicated Investigative point poolsduring adventures, or to provide theBookhounds with “just the right bookfor a customer, enemy, or threat.

Dedicated Bookshop

StockAny player may, at any time duringthe game, define Bookshop Stockpoints, turning them into dedicatedInvestigative pool points (Trail ofCthulhu, p. 54) in any Academic orTechnical subject (except the CthulhuMythos): Egyptian funeral rites, Welshgeology, ley lines, the Maori languageetc. If the player specifies the bookcontaining this knowledge by giving ita title and author (real or invented)

each 1 Stock point becomes 2 poolpoints. If the player merely says “wehave a book on chemistry,” then each1 Stock point becomes 1 pool point.

These dedicated pool points continueto exist as long as the stock doesunless the books associated with themare sold, destroyed, stolen, etc. duringthe story, the pools refresh betweenadventures just like the BookhoundsInvestigative abilities do. Bookhound

Bookshops

“THE PLACE WAS DARK AND DUSTYAND HALF-LOST

SMALL LOZENGE PANES, OBSCUREDBY SMOKE AND FROST,

ROTTING FROM FLOOR TO ROOF –

CONGERIESOF CRUMBLING ELDER LORE AT LITTLECOST.”

– THE BOOK, FUNGI FROMYUGGOTH

In the default Bookhounds of Londoncampaign, the player characters are allassociated in some way with a bookshop:as owner, scout, manager, agent, regular,

parasite, patron, etc. This providesnarrative structure and drive to thecampaign in a number of ways. First, itgives the Bookhounds a reason to hangout together investigating the occult:they have the bookshop in common,and it traffics in occult books. Second,it can supply any number of story hooksmerely by existing: a bookshop implies books (which can be coveted, stolen,forged, lost, recovered, discovered,sold, or destroyed), clients (who candemand, plead, insist, bribe, threaten,

or do favours), and competitors (whocan cut corners, deal dangerously,skulk suspiciously, connive at auctions,or unexpectedly drop hints). Thus, itprovides a “home base” to connect theBookhounds into the setting and drivestories – just like the precinct stationin Homicide or the hospital in House.Whether it’s the starship Enterprise or theSunnydale High library, a home base paysendless dividends in ongoing storytelling:even (especially) if it gets destroyed.

Shared BookshopCreation

One playtest group did this,and it sounded so neat we’resuggesting it here.

During bookshop creation,after deciding on the bookshop’sCredit Rating (p. 17), eachplayer takes a turn and describesa physical or sensory fact aboutthe shop: What catches your eyeas you enter? What does it smelllike? Are the windows leaded-glass, clear, coloured, dusty,curtained? Is there a pallid bust

of Pallas above the door? Is therea bookshop cat? Is there a backroom or a cellar? Is it locked?And so forth. Go around onceor twice; don’t over-define theplace, but build a common image bank.

Then, each player describestheir Bookhound’s average dayas it relates to the shop. Whendo they get up? Do they open theshop, or close it? Do they make

rounds of other shops, or of the book-markets? Who watches thecounter on auction days, or whenthe bookseller has a call out?

There are no mechanical benefits (or consequences) ofanything decided here, but itdoes help create a shared storyspace and helps establish theproper mood of the shop.

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

binding, the enmity of London’svampires, unwelcome scrutinyfrom peculiarly schizoid Stevenson

collectors, etc. These consequencesshould not negate the initial narrativeprogress so much as complicate it andthen accelerate it, driving the storyforward another turn.

The Keeper may also rule that“finding” the squiz takes game time: ifa player wants to spend 2 points fromBookshop Stock to get a forged copyof Tamerlane and Other Poems, theKeeper can rule that “old Bensen says youcan have it tomorrow night after ten,” or“Sure enough, the book arrives in the postthat Tuesday,” for example.

The Keeper can, of course, introducea squiz for the explicit purpose ofdriving the story forward, withoutcharging any points from BookshopStock. Such volumes are still morelikely to be cursed, haunted, stolen, orotherwise ambivalent, of course.

The Keeper can, of course, veto any

squiz introduced for the purpose ofderailing the adventure (“I found a copyof the cult leader’s diary! He is planning toambush us tonight!” ) or undermining thegame tone (“I found a Gutenberg Bible fortwo-and-six! We’re all rich!”).

The Bookseller: Once peradventure, a bookseller can discovera squiz without spending any pointsof Bookshop Stock. (This is theequivalent of the “back in the shop”special ability for his Occupation.)

Further squizzes cost a bookseller 1point from Bookshop Stock. Such adiscovery seldom takes more time than“I check the back room.”

Discover a SquizBy spending 2 points from BookshopStock, any player may “discover” an

exquisite item, a “squiz” in bookseller’sslang. The Bookhound does not haveto have found the squiz in his shop;spending the points merely introducesthe item into the game under thatBookhound’s control. However, theplayer must describe discovering thesquiz: “Look what I found for a pittancein Cambridge Circus,” or “I think I sawsomething that might serve in The Clique.”

In game terms, a squiz is a bookprimarily valuable to the Bookhoundsfor other reasons than its contents:an expensive incunabulum, a bookcoveted by a client, a copy of Draculathat drips blood in the presence ofdemons, a damaged book with intactplates that can be tipped into a forgery,a bookmark that turns out to be aletter from Lily Langtry compromisingan enemy’s ancestor, a copy of TheNew Arabian Nights autographed byRobert Louis Stevenson, etc. This isa good way to “suddenly uncover” a

book needed to get an audience withan eccentric collector, bribe your wayinto a snobbish Satanist coven, etc. Inother words, a squiz is primarily a keyto narrative progress or deepeningsetting, not a quick way to raise cash.

The Keeper should make sure thatmany (if not all) of her major NPCs have bibliographic wants and obsessions –provide plenty of locks for these booksto open, in other words.

The Keeper can (and should) introduceconsequences of a squiz turning up: a break-in or mugging, police questions,a dust-thing (69) in the book’s

still have access to those dedicatedpool points in future adventures andscenarios.

Example: Three Bookhounds – Don, Erin,and Brian – put 2 points apiece into theirshop, Camden Road Books, for a totalBookshop Stock of 6. First, Don denes1 point as Astronomy (to gure out whatthe star-chart they found in the St.-Giles’-Cripplegate steeple means). Then,Erin denes 1 point, and species “a niceedition of Trithemius’ Steganographica” fora 2-point dedicated pool in RenaissanceCodes, helping them break the astrologicalcode in the old diary. Getting with the program, Don then denes 1 point, butspecies “a variant edition of Topsell’sBestiary, with a number of anomaloustipped-in plates” (to gure out what thestrange winged creature chalked on thewall in Clapham is), granting a 2-pointdedicated pool in Monstrous Icons.

At the end of the scenario, Camden RoadBooks has Bookshop Stock 3, Astronomy 1,Renaissance Codes 2, and Monstrous Icons2.

Just as she does with Investigatorabilities, the Keeper should noteBookshop Stock ability pools on theInvestigative Ability Checklist, andmake the effort to design mysteriesand adventures with clues that play tothe Bookshop Stock’s strengths.

The Bookseller: Once peradventure, an Investigator with theBookseller Occupation can definea dedicated pool “for free” – i.e.,

without paying any Bookshop Stockpoints. If the bookseller playerspecifies the book, it’s a 2-point pool;if not, it’s a 1-point pool.

Like the Credit Rating ability forInvestigators, this is an abstraction.Further, much of it is perception,that of clients and competitors

Regulars: Bookshop ContactsEvery bookstore has its regulars: the customers (or browsers) who show up

most weeks, or even most days, to thumb through the “new in store” shelves and(ideally) buy one or two volumes to expand their own collections.

The Keeper will send plenty of customers into the store, dodgy and daintyand everything in between. Some will bring horrid books to sell, or seekstill worse books to buy, but some will just be regular folks – at first. But no bookseller worth his salt trusts to the walk-in trade alone: once per session, anyplayer can create a regular who “just happens” to be in the store that afternoon,easily contacted, or otherwise convenient to the adventure. This will usually besomeone who coincidentally has some knowledge, clue, or resource that canmove the adventure forward: think of the regulars as “shared” versions of theContacts and Connections accessible with an Investigator’s abilities (Trail ofCthulhu corebook, p. 31).

Like those contacts, the player who creates a regular must supply the Keeper

with the regular’s name, description, residence, and bibliophily: “Dr Arbuthnot isa ftyish surgeon with a strange gleam in his eye. I think he has a at in St. John’s Wood,and he mostly buys Napoleonic histories.” Dr Arbuthnot is available in all subsequentsessions for all the Bookhounds as a source of convenient Medicine (or First Aid),a letter of introduction to the curator of the Hunterian Museum, or juicy gossipabout some dubious goings-on in the medical examiner’s office.

And, of course, the Keeper now has the good Doctor on file on the DramatisPersonae list (see p.154) if she needs a story hook, a clue delivery system of herown, or a familiar corpse.

Although too much attention to shillingand pence can become tiresome foreveryone (see “Money in the Game,”22), here’s a very vague and generasort of guideline to what constitutesa reverse or a windfall. The Keepershould adjudicate the outcome basedon her sense of the campaign’s ideapacing and feel; some of the reversesand windfalls given below obviously

apply to more than one Credit Ratinglevel. See table above.

The cumulative outcomes of theadventures alter the bookshop’s CreditRating. It takes a number of consecutivewindfalls equal to the next CreditRating above the shop’s to increase the bookshop’s Credit Rating. It takes anumber of consecutive reverses equal tothe next Credit Rating below the shop’sto lower it. It’s the Depression, after all

The bookshop’s Credit Rating poolrefreshes between adventures, alongwith those of the Bookhounds. Likeother Investigative pools, it does notrefresh in a haven (Trail of Cthulhu corebook, p. 80) or otherwise duringan adventure.

At the end of each adventure, theKeeper and players should determine

whether the outcome for the storewas a reverse (a bad loss), a windfall(a rich strike), or neither. Make thisdetermination based solely on the bookshop’s finances and reputation, noton the adventure’s dramatic outcome:even though the Bookhounds thwarteda plot to awaken Zhar-Lloigor and sinkthe British Isles, if they had to offendpowerful potential patrons, burn apriceless grimoire, and lay out a lot ofcash to do it, the adventure is a reverse.

During an adventure, any Bookhoundmay spend points from the bookshop’sCredit Rating pool instead of (or inaddition to) his own Credit Ratingpool. This does not raise (or lower) theBookhound’s Credit Rating rating oralter his social standing, but it does addmore potential points to his pool.

The Keeper may require some

roleplaying to establish the spend: “I’m just come along from Camden Road Books, guv’nor, and bein’ as you’re a book-lover yerself, I’m sure you can ‘elp me ...” or“Look, my lad, there’s a half-crown waiting

for you at Camden Road Books if you’lltell me where that diary is.” Or she maysimply allow the players to handwavethe actual connection if play becomesstilted. One or two references persession is probably enough.

Credit Rating refreshes, it will only refreshup to 4. Has he wasted his money onSatanism? Given it to a dope-using bookscout? Certainly nobody of good breedingwould condescend to nd out. Best to stopinviting him to dinner, and avoid thenecessity.

However, the minimum Credit Ratingfor any Bookhound is 3 less than their bookshop’s Credit Rating: a CreditRating 5 bookshop will elevate itsgrotty book scout to Credit Rating 2 by association.

(Exception: A bookshop with CreditRating 1 drops to Credit Rating 0 afterone reverse.) A neutral outcome for

an adventure (neither a reverse nor awindfall) counts as a reverse for thepurposes of increasing a shop’s CreditRating.

Example: Camden Road Books has CreditRating 4. It will take 5 consecutive windfallsto increase its Credit Rating to 5. Even after4 windfalls in a row, only one reverse, oreven a neutral outcome, “resets the counter”at zero. It will only take 3 consecutivereverses to tar Camden Road Books withCredit Rating 3. If Camden Road has 2reverses and then a neutral outcome, its

Credit Rating will still drop to 3 if the nextadventure ends in a reverse. Only a windfallwill “reset” the downward spiral.

Bookshop Credit Ratings affectBookhound Credit Ratings. NoBookhound can have a Credit Ratingmore than 1 higher than the CreditRating of the party’s bookshop. Asthe bookshop loses money and socialcachet, the unfortunates tied to it byreputation or ownership do likewise.

The Purchase of Curious Tomes

Depending on the Bookhound’s sociacircle, day job, or other interests, hemight find a buyer any number of waysBooksellers not only have the patronswho walk in the door (however fewthey may be), but “Looking For”advertisements in periodicals likeThe Clique and The Bookseller. (Or inother, more discreetly distributedperiodicals like the Rose catalogue forpornography and erotica.) Steadypatrons will leave watch lists fortheir bookseller: anything by JustinGeoffrey, anything from a certainpress in Amsterdam. Book scouts havelearned what’s on those lists, and forwhom; at the very least, they knowwhich book-dealer wants to buy anygiven book they might uncover. Bookcollectors with a pattern (and theyall have patterns) will have bought

similar books from other booksellers(or from the Bookhound) or atauction: word gets around.

Artists, authors, and occultists wilknow which books are “hot” in theirsets: are the trendsetters huntingdown Beardsley plates, the works oHoffmann, or Venetian grimoires?Catalogue agents get hired to find books for their employers; theyremember who wanted books lastyear, or last decade. Criminals

(forgers and house-breakers primeamong them) will know what thedemand is like for books: what sellsright away, what can’t you fence?Who’s got good security on theirlibrary? Dilettantes may be collectorsthemselves: they will certainly haveacquaintances who are bibliophilesand know their interests. Bookcollectors may also be professorsclergymen, or military officers: theirfellows will know their habits.

– THE PICTURE IN THE HOUSE

Like all trades, the book trade existsto procure goods at a price and sellthem to buyers at a higher price. Thus,the bookman must always have two

prerequisites to do a deal: a buyer anda book. They can come in any order: a book scout may spot a rare volume ina street sale, and then figure out who’dpay more than a few quid for it; anoccultist may know of a fellow Satanistwho has recently become obsessed withthe Ghorl Nigral , and start hunting texts by Mülder or von Junzt to sell him.

Finding a BuyerWho’s looking for a book? How do

you know? In game terms, if it’simportant, Bibliography (or CreditRating, or Streetwise, depending) willtell you, but there are other ways toget the information into the hands ofthe interested parties. The simplestway is for the Keeper to provide itvia a book tout (see 59); a perhapsmore satisfying method springs fromthe Bookhound’s occupation or otheractivities.

The Bookhounds of London campaignis not about the actual quotidiandetails of bookselling. Rather, it deals

with the outré and undergroundworld revealed to those who trafficin Mythos tomes. The book trade –even the books themselves – are the backdrop, the hook, the way into thehorror. But any drama would wearthin with no scenery, no motivations,and no way in. Keepers and playersshould cooperate to keep that inmind: use books and those whocovet them as atmosphere and storyelements.

The book trade is important to thegame, but not central. But with thatnoted, the atmosphere should feelrich, and the setting should seemreal. For those things to happen,the Keeper needs a wide variety ofpossible happenings, and she needs toget enough of the feel right that theplayers can help build it themselves.This section aims to provideconfidence, background, and rulesfor all those ends.

Finding a Book

22

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

Finding a BookWhere do you find a book? Where do youlook? In game terms again, if it’s important,

Bibliography (or Credit Rating, or TheKnowledge, or Evidence Collection, orLibrary Use) will tell you where, but thereare other ways to get books under thenoses of Bookhounds. As with finding aseller, the Keeper can use a book tout (seep. 59) as a short cut, or tailor somethingspecifically for the Bookhound in question.

Book scouts primarily find books at streetsales or street markets: on FarringdonRoad near Fleet Street, “the Stones” atBermondsey (running from midnightto dawn), “the Waste” on KingslandRoad, the Brick Lane junk market, theantiquarian stalls along Camden Passagein Islington, under Waterloo Bridge, oranywhere there’s an empty lot and a vanor car boot full of books. The huge streetmarkets in Caledonian Market Road inIslington and Portobello Road in NottingHill often have book-sellers along with theantiques, second-hand items, and strange junk from everywhere. Books also turnup in skips and dustbins: especially in the

back alleys of Soho and Fleet Street, wheremovie and press folk instinctively discardliteracy. (The line between a book scoutand a tramp is blurred in such back alleys,as in so many other places.) Book scoutsalso buy discounted extra copies andless valuable works from more selective booksellers, especially after estate sales ormajor auctions.

Booksellers get books from book scouts, aswell as from those estate sales and major (orminor) auctions: often, libraries are sold all

together, and sorting the wheat from thechaff is an imperfect process. Booksellerscan also find specific titles for sale byexamining the trade journals (The Clique andThe Bookseller again) or getting a tip from acatalogue agent or even a patron. To findwho owns a title, they can check their ownmarked-up back-files of auction catalogues(where they will have noted the winnersof each lot), although following up on whosold an individual title to whom may cost acatalogue agent some time and shoe-leather.

The Old Bread and HoneyBritish money in the Thirties is denominated in pounds sterling or pounds

(£), shillings (s), and pence (d). There are 12 pence (12d) to the shilling and20 shillings (20s) to the pound. Prices are written as shillings/pence; 10s 6dis 10/6, or “ten and six.” One might even see “30/6” rather than “£1 10s 6d.”

Coined money comes in a riotous variety:Bronze coins are the farthing (1/4d), ha’penny (1/2d), and penny

(1d); and the twelve-sided threepence (3d) after 1937.Silver coins are the threepence (3d) until 1937, sixpence or “tanner”

(6d), shilling or “bob” (1s), half-crown (2s 6d), and the crown (5s).The only gold coin is the (rarely seen) sovereign (£1), not even minted

after 1925 in Britain.Banknotes cover denominations of 10s, £1, £5, and up. Even the “fiver”

is quite rare; many shopkeepers ask their customers to sign the note onthe back before accepting it. “Quid” is slang for pounds; e.g., “Lend us tenquid” or “I paid a quid for it.” Upper-class transactions might be demarcatedin guineas, an amount equal to £1 1s. The British government only mintedguinea coins briefly in the early 19th century, but it remains a status symbolto quote prices in guineas rather than pounds.

During the Thirties, the exchange rate between the pound and the U.S.dollar fluctuates between $4 and $5; a good rule of thumb for modernconversions is to multiply the number by 40 for British money and by 60-100for American dollars: thus a shilling in 1935 is worth approximately £2 or$3-5 in 2010. Or even more: for example, Penguin Books launches the firstmass-market paperback line in English in 1935, with a cover price per bookof 6d – while in 2010, a mass-market paperback costs $8 in the U.S. and £8in the U.K.!

Money in the GameWe strongly advise the Keeper to keep money as abstract as possible.Giving specific prices adds flavour, but if the players ever start actuallyrunning the accounts for their shop, the game has taken a turn away fromstark occult terror and into… small business management. Horrific in itsown way, perhaps, but not the stuff of Trail of Cthulhu. Don’t provide narrativerewards in the game for making a decent sale, or saving a fiver; don’t punishor harass Bookhounds by making poverty an obstacle to solving the mystery.(That’s what squizzes are there for: to let impoverished Bookhounds advancethe plot; see p. 16.) Anything short of fiscal disaster or fiscal delirium is justcolour, and a Bookhounds campaign can run perfectly well without a specificthreat of bankruptcy or the lure of some incunabular jackpot.

The Keeper should instead lean on Credit Ratings: for instance,

Bookhounds can use Bargain (or Streetwise) to correctly bribe anyone(anyone susceptible to such suasion, that is) one Credit Rating lower thanthemselves, or of their own Credit Rating; bribing further down requires aspend, and bribing further up usually requires a squiz.

Bookhounds can be assumed to own, or be able to buy, anything suitableto their own Credit Rating, which usually isn’t much. Any excess funds aresoaked up in gin (Credit Ratings 1-2), whisky (Credit Ratings 3-4), or brandyand wine (Credit Rating 5+). A drug habit is another excellent way to explainpersistent poverty: a subtle Keeper might allow a free Streetwise refresh forany Bookhound who gets their “fix” during a session.




TRAIL OF CTHULHU

Of course, even after a book is foundgetting hold of it may not be quite assimple as buying it. Bookhounds mayneed to use Interpersonal abilities towheedle a “loaner copy” or to drivedown the price: anything from anhonest Bargain to a lying Reassurancethat the work is actually worthless(“but as we’re friends, I could take ioff your hands for a ver ”).

AuctionsAttending book sales or other antiquarian

auctions helps bookmen keep their nosesto the ground in London’s bibliographictrade. Not just where a copy went, butwho bid on what unexpected volume, andwhich dealers seem to be accumulatingwhat kind of stock – all grist for thecurious and cautious bibliovore. And, ofcourse, Bookhounds may actually buy books at auction: either a book knownand coveted ever since it appeared inthe catalogue, or a sudden surprise lotacquired by instinct or manipulation.

Such auctions may happen in a refinedNew Bond Street auction house such asSotheby’s or Bonham’s (Christie’s is onKing Street in St. James’), in a gloomymanor house, or in the basement of aLimehouse gambling hell. They may berun by smooth Oxford graduates withart-history degrees, or by a scarred Lascarwith one hand on a revolver. They may becrooked or straight, desperate bids forcash or confident reiterations of status. Inshort, auctions are great story material.

In Trail of Cthulhu, auctions come in twotypes: narrative and dramatic. Thefollowing rules can apply to auctions inany GUMSHOE game.

Narrative AuctionsA narrative auction exists to advance theplot: to introduce a book, or a villain,or a client, or an artifact, or a rivalry.The auction itself may be the plot turn,or it may be the background for another

clue. The characters’ role, as in anyother investigative scene, is to pick up acore clue or some other insight into themystery. Who “wins” the auction is pre-ordained or irrelevant or both: it might be the villain, the villain’s target, someoneentirely unrelated to the story, or one ofthe PCs.

Possible purposes of a narrative auctionmay include:

book (or planting a book) may beas simple as a Filch test, or it mayrequire diversions, false covers, or

other preparation, depending on thenarrative or dramatic importance theKeeper ascribes to the theft.

ten percent of those peopleown books (almost certainlyan underestimate), and theaverage collection is only 100volumes (likewise), that meansthere are 800,000 books addedto London’s supply every yearthrough estate sales alone.Yes, some libraries are leftintact to heirs who appreciatethem. But strange and arcane bibliographic interests are notoften inherited, and deathtaxes in Britain are on the rise.

In addition, London bookdealers attend estatesales (or do private libraryvaluations and sales) in theHome Counties, and reallyall across the southeast ofEngland. The number of“new” used books flowing intoLondon is therefore closer toa million annually – again, aconservative estimate. If only

one percent of one percent ofthose books have any occultor Mythos significance, or anygreat value otherwise, that’s ahundred books that someone… or something … in Londonmight kill for. Every year. Andwhen that killing happens …the dead man’s library comeson the market in an estate sale.

Dramatic Auction RulesGame out a dramatic auction as a contestof the Auction ability (p. 12), just like

any contest of general abilities. Howeverparticipants in an auction can also spendpool points from their Credit Rating. Asnoted on p. 19, any Bookhound mayspend Credit Rating pool points from their bookshop as well as their own. To balancethis, some opponents may have not onlytheir own Auction pool and Credit Rating but a “line of credit” providing more poopoints than their ostensible Credit Ratingscore would indicate. (Such balance iless necessary if the dramatic auction is

Dramatic AuctionsA dramatic auction is a showdown scene between the characters and some foe orobstacle, the equivalent of a fight sceneor a chase. A dramatic auction pits theheroes or their allies against some othercharacter or characters, usually the villainor her agents. In a dramatic auction, theKeeper might not know – and may nothave planned – who will win. Like some

fight scenes, the dramatic auction maysimply function to raise tension (and drainability pools).

It’s important that the protagonistshave some way of coming back after alost dramatic auction: breaking in andstealing the item, finding something thatcounteracts the item’s powers, killingthe winning bidder before he can use theitem, convincing Scotland Yard to raid theauction house, or some other fallback plan.

• To uncover a hidden interest:“You’d swear that the man who bid

clerical Investigator)

• To point the character to adramatic auction: “A weaselly tout you occasionally buy a pint for sidlesup to you at the interval. ‘This ain’tthe real deal, sport. There’s a knockset up for midnight in the crypt. Wordto the wise.’” (Streetwise)

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

Bidders without the Auction ability:Bidders without the Auction ability canstill bid in the contest, spending Credit

Rating pool points as per the rules above.However, they must announce their spendsfirst; bidders with the Auction ability canthen adjust their spend if desired.

Auctioneering: A less than neutralauctioneer may spend points from hisAuction pool (but not from his CreditRating pool) to assist any bidder in a givenround. He reveals his spend (along withits beneficiary) simultaneously with the bidders’ spends; it is added to the bidder’sdie roll. If the auctioneer has an Auctionrating of 8 or more, he may spend thosepoints after the bidders have revealed theirspends. Such collusion is only obvious toparticipants with an Auction rating equal toor greater than the auctioneer’s; the Keepermay allow Assess Honesty to detect suchgoings-on as a reaction or other “tell” by the bidder.

The specific rules vary depending on thescene type and the GM’s dramatic sense,and by the specific nature of the auction.

Dramatic auctions come in two varieties,single-lot dramatic auctions, and multiple-lot dramatic auctions.

Single-Lot Dramatic

AuctionsThis is the climax of the auction; thepreliminary lots are disposed of or dealt withas in a narrative auction. The real purposeof this scene is a conflict to determine whogets one item: a copy of Cultes des Goules

bound in human skin, or something equallyhigh-stakes and dramatic.

A single-lot dramatic auction contestpotentially lasts for several rounds, as eachparticipant bids and spends points fromtheir Auction or Credit Rating pool, thenrolls the die. Any bidder who fails to beatthe Difficulty Number is knocked out ofthe bidding before the next round; the last bidder standing at the end of a round winsthe lot.

a Difficulty Number of 4. NPC bidderswho have some ongoing advantage –telepathy, collusion with the auctioneer,

a gang of thugs standing by – mighthave a Difficulty Number of 3 instead,or raise their opponents’ Difficulty to 5,depending. (Model temporary advantageswith a 1- or 2-point refresh of the foes’Credit Rating or Auction pool.) Inauctions, unlike most contests, thereis no turn order: the bids are revealedsimultaneously. Use hidden fingers,penciled bids, or poker chips to arrangethis.

Rating; a millionaire Satanist might simplyhave Credit Rating 7, but an “auctionpool” of 10+. Assign whatever point poolmakes dramatic and narrative sense, butopponents’ auction pools should seldom be more than twice their ostensibleCredit Rating rating.

The auction is much like any othercontest. All parties may bid and spendpoints from their Auction or CreditRating pool to influence a die roll against

Glossary of Auction TerminologyBought In: If an item fails to meet its reserve price, it is “bought in,” or

“B.I.” Auctioneers will sometimes disguise a B.I. by awarding the book to anonexistent bidder.Drop: To lead another bidder to a high price, then abruptly stop bidding. “I

ran it up to £480 and dropped it on him at £500.” Often done by confederatesof the seller, or of the auction house.

House Sale: An auction that takes place on the grounds of, or inside, astately home. Creating such a tony ambience is often a good way to unloadmediocre items to rich (or class-dazzled) bidders.

Juice: Auctioneer’s (or auction house’s) commission. Between 10% and20%, depending on the circumstances.

The Knock: An agreement among dealers to not bid against each otherduring an auction, allowing the cabal (“the Ring”) to pay the seller far less thanan honest auction would bring. Afterward, the Ring holds a second, private

auction to “knock” the goods out among themselves. The increase in price isshared out among all the dealers in the Ring as a “dividend,” also a “divvy.” Adealer who joins the Ring with no intention of buying is a “divvy chaser,” onlyinterested in the payout. The Knock has been illegal in Britain since 1927.

Leading the Bidding: A false bid thrown in by the auctioneer to keepa competitive rally going.

Lot: An item or group of items up for bidding at the same time. A singlelot might be a mummy case (with or without mummy included), a box of books, or an individual tome.

The Rooms: Auction rooms; permanent premises of an auction houselike Sotheby’s or Christie’s.

Salting: Planting items (from other properties) in an auction expectedto get hot, such as a house sale.

Settle: To join a Knock or Ring.Shill Bid: A false bid placed by the seller or a confederate to drive up the

price at auction.Wall Bid: A false bid created by the auctioneer to further milk a single

enthusiastic bidder. The auctioneer points to a bidder behind the mark, butactually is taking the bids “off the wall.”

choose to distribute the cards randomlyor let the players pick.

The other players should be on theirhonour not to collude with the PC unlesthey can justify it properly by roleplayingor other in-game machinations. If theycan’t make such promises (a good omenfor playing gutter-crawling Bookhoundswe suppose) the Keeper should enforceminimum bids at the very least.

Cooperation: Multiple Investigatorat an auction need not bid against eachother: they can use the Cooperationrules on p. 58 of Trail of Cthulhu to shareAuction or Credit Rating pool points witheach other. This can represent collusive bidding and other tactics, or outrighloans and gifts. Foes with an Auctionrating equal to or greater than those oany of the cooperating Investigators wilnotice.

The Drop: It’s not impossible that theInvestigators may want to put “the drop”on someone: running the price up withno intention of paying. This is especially

handy when trying to drain a foe’s Auctionor Credit Rating during a multiple-lotauction. To drop a lot on someone, roll adie against a Target Number of 4, plus thenumber of Auction or Credit Rating poopoints you want to soak your opponentfor. Investigators may spend pool pointsfrom Auction, Bargain, other relevanInterpersonal abilities (Flattery to get arich dullard to drop on a modish objed’art; Streetwise to get a mob boss todrop on a fake Hand of Glory, etc.), orrelevant Academic or Technical poo

points (Bibliography to run up prices ona book; Art History to drop a paintingCraft: Cabinetry to overprice anarmoire) to add to this die roll.

If the Investigator fails the roll, the ployfails: your opponent snaps up the lot at areasonable price. If he fails by more than1, the opposition knows the Investigatortried to drop him: he has earned somepayback from the kind of person who haextra money at occult book auctions. I

Multiple-Lot Dramatic

AuctionsThe auction equivalent of a long fight;characters will need to husband theirresources as the auction continues. Each bidding round represents one lot: thewinner of that bidding round (the onewho reaches the highest total on the dieafter spent points are added) wins thatlot. If all bidders failed their roll, someunrelated NPC wins the lot, or theauction house buys in the lot.

Prepare a good long list of temptinglots and items; the most importantitem might not be the last one. Playercharacters should have the opportunityto use any applicable Investigativeabilities to figure out which item is theone they want, or at least which one theydon’t want their rivals to get. If they havealready studied the auction catalogue (ifone exists), this investigation may happenin earlier scenes. Although an auction canhave hundreds of lots, you can easily say“Using Bibliography (or Art History, or etc.), you’ve narrowed down the crucial lots to these

ve items.”

Optional Dramatic

Auction RulesSome optional rules make auctions evenmore interesting, or at least varied:

Multiple bidders: In many auctions,there will be other factions besides thevillain bidding against the heroes. In fact,the players might not even know which

bidder is the villain! One Bookhoundrepresents the player character team,or himself alone. Each other player, andthe GM, plays one of the rival bidders;the Keeper writes down each bidder’sname (or description) and Auction andCredit Rating pool on a card, along withany other notes: i.e., “Always bids at least 2 points” or “Will bid everything to get VolumeSix of the Revelations of Glaaki” or “Roll a die; you choose the bid on an odd number, but onan even number, you bid 1.” You may even

The Bid Is …Before a dramatic auction,

decide in general terms whatthe range of bids is likely to be.After each round of the Auctioncontest, as the auctioneer,narrate the outcome based onthe bids and dice rolls.

For example, in a roundwhere two NPCs bid close tothe same amount, the nattily-dressed Investigator over-bidslightly, and the rolls balancedout: “That’s fty from Mr. Panchit,

fty going once, sixty from the ladyin the veil, sixty, who’ll go seventy,and eighty from the gent in the grey Trilby.”

The next round, theInvestigator under-bid badly,one NPC exhausted her CreditRating pool, and the otherNPC bid normally but rolledvery high: “Eighty from greyTrilby is the bid, ninety from thelady, a hundred from Mr. Panchit,the lady again, one-twenty from

the Trilby, back to Mr. Panchit,back to the lady, Mr. Panchit bidstwo hundred, the lady is out. Thebid is two hundred, ladies and gentlemen.”

Keep prices abstract, anddon’t sweat exactly whichaccount the heroes’ winning bid comes out of, unlessyou really enjoy games ofaccounting-based horror.

the Investigator fails dramatically (justwhat “dramatically” entails is up to theKeeper), he burns as many Credit Rating

pool points as he was trying to soak themark for – and is now the proud ownerof the lot. (Take extra points out of theBookshop Credit Rating pool, if need be.) Trying to get rid of such a whiteelephant, or discovering its hidden (andlikely even less pleasant) qualities, canspark another adventure.

Clever use of other Investigative abilities(or salting the auction with somethingthe Investigators know their foe will bidheavily on) might lower the initial TargetNumber to 3, or even 2, before the bidding starts. See the next section forsome possibilities.

Other Investigative abilities: Beforethe auction begins, or at any time beforea round of bidding, any Investigator cantry to influence the outcome by callingon a rated Investigative ability otherthan Credit Rating. This may or may notrequire a spend, but is usually free. In anygiven auction, each ability can only be

used once: if Erin has used her Flattery,Brian can’t use his. Some possible uses ofsuch abilities, and their possible rewards,include:

• “I use Bibliography.” “You know thatDeeming covets anything by Marlowe,and you can count on him to bidstrongly.” Lets the Investigatorsconserve pool points this round andlet the NPC take the hit.

• “Brian rolls his eyes and acts skeptical

when the auctioneer mentions the book’s provenance.” “Is that Negotiate to lowerthe book’s perceived value, or Reassuranceto convince the cultist he doesn’t knowwhat the book is?” If it’s Negotiate,Brian’s Difficulty Number is 3instead of 4. If it’s Reassurance, thecultist has to reveal his bid first, as hegets overconfident.

• “Does Assess Honesty tell me if theauctioneer is conspiring to x the bids

Pool Points and AuctionsSome playtesters wanted to know if Investigators who lose an auction get their

spent Credit Rating pool points back. After all, goes the objection, since they didn’tspend any money on a losing bid, they shouldn’t lose any Credit Rating pool pointson one. This argument fundamentally misunderstands what Credit Rating poolpoints – and all pool points in GUMSHOE – represent.

Put in bald game-design terms, all pool points in GUMSHOE represent yournarrative energy: how much influence you potentially have over the story. Theyrepresent “spotlight time,” “juice,” “protagonist power,” and most of all, choice. Ifyou have more Health pool points, you get to act in the story longer (and youhave more options) than if you have few Health pool points. If you have moreAstronomy pool points, you get more spotlight time at the observatory and canexert choice over when you might gather astronomical bonus clues, and whichones. It’s the same with Credit Rating pool points in a situation calling for CreditRating: bribes, schmoozing with college pals, or auction-houses. Credit Rating

pool points don’t represent cash in your wallet any more than Firearms pool pointsrepresent bullets in your gun. When you’ve blown your Credit Rating pool, you’ve blown your ability to influence the auction – unless you turn to other methods. Sono, Credit Rating pool points spent on auctions are gone until the next adventure, just like other spent Investigative pool points.

The Millionaire QuestionOther playtesters questioned whether indigent scrofulous Bookhounds could

possibly win auctions against millionaires. In narrative terms, they can possibly win because they’re protagonists. In “real life,” it’s because they’re (potentially) betterat auctions: they focus their attention, have more experience in rooms, makefewer stupid moves, look more predatory, or just get luckier. To some extent,the Auction ability models this differently. If you think millionaires should always

win auctions, just make all your auctions narrative auctions (p. 24) and moveon. Don’t confuse optimal tactics with optimal drama. If you pit millionaireNPCs against Bookhounds in dramatic auctions, by definition the Bookhoundshave a chance to win. Give the players a chance to use other abilities to tilt the battlefield; retroactively explain that “what actually happened” is the Bookhoundsused some nefarious auction tactic to snap up the lot before the bidding got reallyhot; assume they were bankrolled by whomever they wind up selling the bookto; make their victory part of the mystery; or just accept that when push comesto shove, sometimes the other guy blinks. Better yet, embrace the player-facingnature of GUMSHOE to the fullest; ask the players why they won and run with

their explanation

the Bookhounds (and their players)feel connected. Even if the bonus itprovides is not strictly needful froma mechanical perspective, the merefact of its availability adds colour andconfidence.

The Keeper is more thanallowed to make the British Museum’s15th-century Latin Necronomicon,for example, entirely inaccessibleto Bookhounds, or to make gainingadmission to it the focus of an entireadventure.

Requests for access may be met with astonishment,

disgust, salacious sneers,narrowed eyes, or fearfulembarrassment. Librariansmay simply deny the existenceof such collections, or ofindividual volumes withinthem. Bookhounds who believe such denials shouldprobably look into sellingstamps instead.

The special collection may be merely in an interior roomor discreet basement, or it

may be protected by armedguards, vault doors, or opengrillwork cages. (Or by morearcane measures, in Pulpiercampaigns.)

PhotostatsThe Rectigraph, or

Photostat machine, wasinvented in 1907. In theThirties, it is the only way(besides by hand) to copya book. A large cameraphotographs the pages, usinglong sheets (350 feet) ofphotographic paper as the

film. A prism-and-mirrorarrangement transposes thepage into a negative paperimage, which the machinefeeds through a developer trayand dryer. It takes a skilledoperator (Photography 2+)2 minutes a page to producenegative Photostats, whichcan then be photographed atwill to become positive-imagecopies.

are cumbersome and veryexpensive, as are theirdeveloper chemicals andspecial paper. Bookhoundsare very unlikely to haveaccess to such devices. Evenif they do, Mythos tomes’magical properties may alterunpredictably under thecamera’s soulless gaze.

alterations and variations:

• The book is bound in humanskin. Or inhuman skin.

• The book is bound under a falsetitle.

• The book is locked shut.(Requires a Mechanical Repairtest if opening it is the goal ofthe adventure; a Locksmith testif opening it merely providesclues.)

• The book is autographed by theauthor, or inscribed to someone

connection with some horrid being. Or perhaps the ritualcontinues inside its pages

somehow.

• Is the current owner aware of itspowers? Perhaps he’s planning touse it for evil … or to destroy itwithout letting anyone make anhonest shilling off it first.

• Where did he get it from, andwhy? If he’s the sort of personwho habitually collects darkgrimoires, he likely bearswatching in future. And ifthere’s some new source fordark grimoires on the scene,they definitely bear watchingright now.

The heart of a Bookhoundscampaign is the books. They provideflavour, narrative drive, MacGuffins,rewards, punishments, dangers,and motivations for NPCs andBookhounds alike. Any amountof effort the Keeper puts into the books in her game is worth it; all ofit results in something, if only vividdescription and the sense of deeper

realism.

Some Shelfwear

and FoxingThere can be a lot of differencesin books; even between copies ofthe same edition of the same work.The Keeper should individualise anyimportant tome in the game; no twocopies of Nameless Cults should bealike. She should work out the book’s

provenance – who owned it and howthey got it – maybe even going allthe way back to its publication if it’sa key element of the story. Considerthe following questions, and howthey might drive narrative:

• Was the book stolen? Maybe therightful owner is hunting it, too.

• Was it used in a Mythos ritual?Perhaps it still has some

BindingNo, not that kind of binding. Until the 1st century A.D. (or so), texts were

not bound into books, but pasted together into scrolls. Either Coptic copyistsin Egypt or traders from Persia (or both) brought the “codex” into existence:pages of vellum, parchment, or papyrus stitched together, covered by boards.Eventually, binders covered the boards and the stitching with leather or metal.

With the advent of the printing press in the mid-15th century, the use ofpaper (instead of tougher parchment) allowed thicker books and created themodern curved-spine binding. Some printers and publishers bound their ownworks, or at least “premium copies” of their own works, but as books becamemore common, and print runs grew, publishers increasingly sold unboundcopies of their works. The customer would then have his copy bound to matchhis library’s décor or his own sense of the volume.

As late as the 18th century, almost all books were still sold unbound, orwrapped in cheap paper. In 1820, the publisher William Pickering introducedthe modern “uniform” or “publisher’s” binding, in which the publisher pre- binds an entire print run or edition in leather or cloth. Pickering’s innovationrapidly became the standard for publishers in the 19th century, leading to thecreation of the paper dust jacket to cover the publisher’s binding and provide a

more eye-catching display in the bookstall. Even as late as the Thirties, though,many wealthier customers (though fewer collectors) still have even uniform bindings rebound.

Most books are bound in calico cloth or morocco leather, made from goat-skin. (“Half-calf” bindings split the difference: the spine and an inch or two inleather, and the rest in cloth.) The highest-quality cloth binding is buckram,a resin-reinforced cotton; the best leather bindings are calf-skin. Books have been bound in almost any cloth or leather imaginable: silk, linen, sail-cloth,mole-skin (common in notebooks), beaver (felt or leather), shagreen (shark-skin), and of course human skin.

• The book compels its readers toact in a certain way: by memeticprogramming, by describing atempting treasure, by hypnoticmagic, by exposing theirconsciousness to Carcosa.

• Portions of the book underlined,or blacked out. Perhaps justone name, or the word “terror”wherever it occurs.

• Copious annotations by aprevious owner: In the samelanguage? A different language?A code or shorthand? Theymay make the work clearer, ordeliberately confuse the issue.They may be restricted to onespell, or one chapter, or onetopic. (They might add a poolpoint.)

• Partially translated into alanguage the Investigators canread. The translation might bein the margins, or between the

• The book is in code, or cipher;its encrypted state might beobvious or inobvious. The bookmight be an innocuous maskfor a coded message readable inpinpricks above certain words orletters.

• Invisible writing in the book:added by the owner, or by

the printer. On one page, orthroughout.

• The book is infested with

something worse than silverfish:alien insects, a dust-thing (p.69), a demon.

• An intriguing family tree isdrawn onto the endpaper.Common in family Bibles … andperhaps in other, less holy, textsowned by less holy families.

• Other papers bound in withthe book by the purchaser,or rebound or tipped in after

• Pages are uncut, or pastedtogether – by accident, or toconceal information.



Book SizesBooks are printed on sheets of

paper. The size of a book dependsnot only on the size of the paper, but on the number of times thatsheet has been folded over before being bound.

A folio, for instance, is asheet of paper that has only beenfolded over once, and stitched upthe middle of the fold. Most foliosare between 10” by 13” and 13” by20” – an elephant folio is up to 23”tall, an atlas folio is up to 25” tall,and the double elephant folio still

taller.Fold the sheet of paper

over twice, to make four pagesfrom one sheet, and you have aquarto, or 4vo. This book, likemost RPG books, is a quarto(although modern machineryfolds the paper more times thanthat); most quartos are between7.5” by 10” (a “small quarto”) and10” by 12.5”.

In 1501, the Venetian printerAldus Manutius, who inventedreadable typography (a font calleditalics) and lower-case letters, alsoinvented the convenient book sizecreated by folding the paper overthree times, making eight pagesfrom one sheet: the octavo, or8vo. Standard hardback books areoctavos: around 6” by 9”. Keep inmind that paper sizes (and howdeeply the printer cut the page)varied widely: French 8vos ofthe 16th century were closer to

modern paperbacks in size, 5” by7” or even smaller.Smaller sizes exist: the

quarto folded in three producesthe duodecimo, or 12mo(modern “trade paperback”),the octavo folded in halfcreates the sextodecimo, or16mo (modern “mass marketpaperback”), and so on for the18mo, 24mo, 32mo, and 64mo.

Not all bibliophiles know the difference between Alhazred and Abramelin, or between von Junzt and van Helmont.The most occult-minded, murderous,would-be magical bibliophiles mayyet labor under a delusion – evenfull-blown Yog-Sothoth cultists maynot be able to differentiate works ofthe genuine Mythos from the moreconventional occultism that surrounds

and interpenetrates it. That’s assumingthere is a difference: both WalterGilman in Dreams in the Witch House and Dr. Muñoz in Cool Air investigatemediaeval grimoires as a route toMythos (or at least operational magic)lore.

An ignorant, mistaken, or otherwise“innocuous” occult book can stillprovide useful knowledge for aMythos-minded magus, or for anInvestigator:

Dream Lore: These works runthe risk of making it far too easy toContact Cthulhu, Dagon, Nodens, orNyarlathotep.

Geomancy: The art of earthmagics may provide insights into theoperations of the lloigor, Dark Youngmi-go, or flying polyps, accidentallypinpoint a K’n-Yani or othersubterranean outpost, or even hint at

Dhin Chant, Shrivelling, or RunicTarget and Steal Life (both fromRough Magicks). Any book with such

Demonology: Most books ofdemonic lore are careful to insistthat their summonings work by thepower of God and the angels (orthe local equivalent). This might be wishful thinking, absolutelytrue, or a superficially acceptableway of alluding to the role of Yog-Sothoth in the process of Contactand Summoning spells of all sorts.Such tomes might also include theDread Name of Azathoth, lines ofthe Saaamaa Ritual, or the Vach-VirajIncantation as protection against “that

The Book of the Dead,translated by E. A. WallisBudge (1895; English)

A translation of the Egyptian funerarytext, the Pert em Hru, as found onthe Papyrus of Ani (ca. 1420 B.C.).It provides the soul with the keys toimmortality and protection in theafterlife. Other translations or papyrihave variant versions of the same loreand spells.

A Book of the Sacred Magicof Abra-Melin the Mage,translated by S.L. MacGregorMathers (1897; English)

Purporting to be the story of Abra-Melin of Egypt and his magicalinstructions to his pupil Abraham of

Worms, it concerns awakening themagus’ “Holy Guardian Angel” andvarious magical operations afterward.Mathers translated a faulty Frenchmanuscript badly; there is an earlierGerman edition (Cologne, 1725).

Clavis Philosophiae etAlchymiae, by Robert Fludd(1633; Latin)A defense of Rosicrucianism andalchemy by the English physician,

occultist, and philosopher who(among other things) made magicalmagnets out of dead men’s fingers.The first (1632) printing wasdestroyed by the Frankfurt militia.Fludd’s magnum opus, History ofthe Macrocosm and Microcosm, thoughpartially printed in 1617, remainedunfinished at his death in 1637.

charms often appealed to popularaudiences rather than elite occultists;the same book might be “hex magic”

in Pennsylvania, “obeah” in Trinidad,or simply “prieres merveilleuses” inrural France. These crude redactionsmight still facilitate such spells asCreate Binding Sigil (from RoughMagicks), Elder Sign, Sign of Eibon,Tikkoun Elixir, or the Vach-VirajIncantation, along with variousenchantments.

Theosophy: Works purportingto reveal the wisdom of prehumancivilizations might actually do so!Theosophical texts might containdistorted (or truly pure!) versionsof the Dho-Nha Formula, as well asrituals and lore connected with theprehuman inhabitants of Earth, andtheir gods: Ghatanothoa, Cthugha,Cthulhu, Rhan-Tegoth, Tsathoggua,Yig, and so forth.

Witchcraft: At least one witchlearned to create hyperspace gatesfrom her studies; other works of

witchcraft might give hints in thatdirection, if not the actual spell.Contact Rat-Thing is more likely,and likely more common, along withliturgies to Gol-Goroth, Mormo,Shub-Niggurath, or Nyarlathotep.

Historical Occult BooksIt’s up to the Keeper whether anyof the real occult works below, allavailable (if not necessarily in print)in the Thirties, provide anything

more than obscure hints and pointersthat only make Mythos sense inretrospect.

Alraune, by Hanns HeinzEwers (1911; German)

A lurid (and partiallyautobiographical) SF-horror noveldealing with the creation of artificiallife: a female “mandrake” (alraune inGerman) that lives to debase human

lines of the Saaamaa Ritual.

Herbalism: In addition to the

possibilities under alchemy, thestudy of sorcerous plants may leadthe would-be magus to liao, blacklotus, or the special spores of Shub-Niggurath.

Kabbalism: Primarily Jewishmysticism dealing with names andnumbers, and the relationship between the world and the conceptsof the world. In short, prime Mythosmaterial. Arcane kabbalistic textsmight discuss the Angles of TaghClatur or the Dho-Nha Formula, orreveal the Dread Name of Azathoth,along with the “true names” (whichis to say the Contact or Summoningprocedures) of any number of beings.

Mesmerism: Techniques forfocusing “animal magnetism” or“mental force” might approximatespells like Dominate (from RoughMagicks) or Mind Exchange, or allowtelepathy with a distressingly large

range of alien minds.

Necromancy: Magical textsinvolving the dead are more likely tocontain Contact Ghoul (or the closeequivalent) than Resurrection, but both are certainly plausible. Suchtexts may also discuss Mordiggian,Mormo, and other titan entitiesembodying death.

Numerology: The pure qualities ofnumbers: magic squares, gematria,

and Pythagorean wisdom in generalare the sorts of things that leadeventually to conceptualising Tawilat-’Umr or Daoloth or worse.

Satanism: Texts devoted to Lucifermay provide hints (accidental orintentional) of Hastur, Y’golonac,or Mormo, along with the obviouspossibilities for Nyarlathotep.

It discusses thearchons Iod, Vorvadoss, and Zuchequon:whether these are familiar Mythos deitiesunder other names, or entirely new titans,remains both unclear and controversial.The original is lost, although uncataloguedCoptic copies may exist in the BritishMuseum or Egypt; only Johann Negus’ badly edited, privately printed 1868English translation is known to survive.

The Negus edition of the Book of Iodprovides 1 dedicated pool point forOccult after a skim; poring over it adds+1 to your Cthulhu Mythos rating andprovides 1 Magic potential point. ACoptic text would provide more points inall three categories; the mythical “original”iron-covered codex would provide at least4 Magic potential points … but at whatcost?

Book of Dzyan, by unknown

authors (c. 200 B.C.; Chinese and

Sanskrit)

The oldest known copies of this polyglottext were discovered in a cave on the

border of Thibet in 595 A.D.; one copyeventually made its way to the Museumin Wharby, England in 1902. Photostats ofthat copy exist in major British libraries.The Chinese and Sanskrit versions (whichare not identical) parallel a version inunknown characters. According toTheosophist tradition, the Book of Dzyanwas first set down in Senzar, the Atlanteanlanguage, as a commentary on the Thibetanur-scripture, the Kiu Te.Working from thatassumption, and from communicationsfrom her Mahatmas, Madame Blavatsky

produced a partial translation that differsin many respects from the version inWharby, as does a channeled version inEnglish attributed to John Dee. (Thisversion was published by Furnivall Pressin Dublin in 1840.)

Skimming the polyglot version provides 2dedicated pool points for any Investigativeability (or 1 point for 2 abilities) involvingAtlantis, China, or any prehuman writing.Poring over it provides +1 to your Cthulhu

New Rule: Potential PointsSome abilities are more abstruse, difficult, or complex than others,

enough so that they can’t simply be bought “from scratch” during characterimprovement. They require a prerequisite: teaching by a master, learning froman ancient text, or some other specific in-game experience. That prerequisiteexperience conveys “potential points” in the ability; when the character spends build points from experience on that ability, she can only do so up to her“potential.”

The main example in Trail of Cthulhu is the Magic ability, as discussed inRough Magicks. Reading tomes, communing with elder beings, visiting placesof power, or learning from sorcerers conveys Magic potential; to actually usethe Magic ability, a character must then buy Magic points with experience.The character can only raise her Magic rating to the level of her current Magicpotential.

Example: Artistically inspired by her brushes with death, Letitia has thrown herself

into sorcerous experimentation. She reads Mysteries of the Worm (2 Magic potential points), and speaks long into the night with a ghoul sorcerer (1 Magic potential point).She gets 2 build points per adventure; after two adventures, she can raise her Magicability rating to 3. She can’t spend that last build point on Magic until she learnssomething new, as she only received 3 Magic potential points.

Other specific lore (like Megapolisomancy, p. 76) may also requirepotential points as prerequisites for ability ratings; non-magical examplesmight include Kung Fu (get potential from long hours of Shaolin meditationor brutal exercise), Haute Cuisine (get potential by dining with great chefs orreading superb cookbooks), or Piety (get potential by prayer, good works, orholy visions).

The contents of this Gothic text are verysimilar to a number of widely-separatedcodices with no known bibliographicconnection to each other: the CodexDagonensis (currently in MiskatonicUniversity), the Codex Spitalsk (inUppsala, Sweden), and the CodexMaleficium (in the Vatican). Two Gothiccopies are known to be in England; theAhnenerbe has confiscated at least onefrom a German collector. The title,a mish-mosh of nonsense, Latin, andGermanic, indicates that the author (orcompiler) was barely literate, implyinga Dark Ages origin predating the Irishmissions to Germany. Its contents arelikewise a gallimaufry of rites, prayers,and supplications to water-things (the“aquadingen” of the title).

Thirties London

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

By the Thirties, London is no longer thecapital of the world. But it is still thecapital of the world’s largest empire,even if some of its dominions have become restive. Its eight million citizenscome not merely from the HomeCounties but from all over Britain –and from Ireland, the Continent, India,China, and the rest of the globe. It is

one of the world’s most advanced andsophisticated cities: electric lights anddouble-decker diesel-fueled buses havereplaced the Victorian gaslights andhansom cabs of popular imagination.London even avoids the worst of theDepression: its unemployment ratepeaks at 13.7% in 1932, and 37,000of its factories (building aircraft andautomobiles, canning luxury foods,and turning out electrical machinery)keep running. Over 100,000 Londonprinters and book-binders employ half

the nation’s pressmen. Even the LondonZoo is modern now: the penguins andgorillas live in stark Bauhaus buildings,not wrought-iron cages.

But it is still London, the Smoke, the“Great Wen.” There are still 20,000horses on the streets (about 5% ofvehicles are horse-drawn), and thereare still streets without police on them.Campbell Road in Islington, for instance,was built in the 1860s, and still seems like

For most regions of London, thesecontacts can do multiple duty: a Bobbymight potentially show up anywhere inthe city, although his chances of being“bent” increase in Soho, for example. Inyour campaign, there may be multiple

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

A subterranean Mithraeum –dedicated to the Roman mysterycult god Mithras – lies beneath the

city a block northeast of St. StephenWalbrook. (This is true, but theMithraeum is not actually discovereduntil 1954. In an Arabesque London,p. 80, it makes a superb cultcentre.)

The Tower of London (XXIX), oncea fortification, prison, and executionground, sits where the giant Bran’shead once lay buried. Should theravens (bran in Welsh) ever leave theTower, Br itain is doomed. The Toweris haunted by everything from theghosts of its prisoners and victims(Anne Boleyn, Walter Raleigh, manymore) to a cylinder of bluish-whitefluid that appeared to the Keeperof the Crown Jewels in 1817 to theimmense shadow of an axe on theWhite Tower wall.

Cthulhu Mythos: Lord Northam(see Rumours of the City, below)reached the Nameless City in innerArabia in 1907, and spent severalyears accumulating Mythos loreand attempting a communion with

Yog-Sothoth before suffering acomplete breakdown. In 1927, aftera brief exposure to a copy of theNecronomicon, he suffered a horrificstroke and survives as a near-catatonic.

Legendary LondonIn the beginning, the giant Albion, a son of Poseidon, dwelt in the island and ruled it with terror and force. He was slain

by Heracles, and his giant-kin descended into savagery until they were extirpated by Brutus, a great-grandson of Aeneas theTrojan. Brutus’ comrade Corineus killed the mightiest of the giants, Goëmagot, also called Gogmagog, later representedas twin giants, Gog and Magog. Corineus either flung Gogmagog off a cliff into the ocean, buried him (them?) under theGogmagog Hills in Cambridgeshire, or enslaved them as London’s gatekeepers, depending on the story. Brutus named theisland, which an oracle of Diana had told him to seek out, after himself (“Bruttium” becoming “Britain”) and founded itscapital city, Troynovaunt or “New Troy” on the future site of London.

Among Brutus’ descendants and successors as king of Britain were Leir (immortalised as Shakespeare’s King Lear),Belinus (after whom Billingsgate Fish Market is named, himself named after the Celtic “henbane god”), and Lud. KingLud vastly expanded Troynovaunt and renamed it after himself, Lud Dun (“the town of Lud”), which became “London.” (Arival derivation comes from twin brothers, the Londinos, or “fierce ones.”) During the subsequent reign of Lud’s brotherCassibelaunus, Julius Caesar invaded Britain, captured London, and built the White Tower on Tower Hill. Lud’s grandson,King Cunobelinus (the “hound of Belinus,” and Shakespeare’s Cymbeline) welcomed (and paid an annual tribute to) theRomans as “allies,” based on their common Trojan descent.

How did the Romans win? Lud’s father Bran left Britain on an invasion of Ireland, taking with him Britain’s finest

warriors. The Irish defeated the invaders, fatally wounding Bran. He asked his followers to bury his severed head underTower Hill to keep Britain safe from invasion, but they spent 80 years in a magical castle before burying the head, allowingthe Romans their window of opportunity for invasion. Even so, the Britons managed to take Caesar’s sword Crocea Mors. Acentury later, Boadicea, the Queen of the Trinovantes (Troynovauntes?), almost drove the Romans out during her rebellion, burning Roman Londinium in the process. She died at Battle Bridge (now King’s Cross), and may be buried under PrimroseHill or King’s Cross Station.

Modern scholars dismiss such legends, from Geoffrey of Monmouth’s 12th-century chronicle and the Welsh Mabinogion,seeking to explain them as distorted records of either mythology or glorified tribal wars. But the Cthulhu Mythos mightunderstand them differently, noting for example the constant series of buried giants (often twins) recurring in the lore.Bran is also a giant who does not fit well with the established chronology; in some versions, he is the twin to Belinus. This“giant out of time” could be some titan entity continuously recurring in British nightmares and legends, forcing its waythrough whatever Druidical defenses might exist. Are Bran-Belinus and the Londinos and Gog-Magog just human masksfor Zhar-Lloigor or Nug-Yeb or Han-Byatis? Other entities may lay claim to London as well: the Welsh name for King Lud

is Nudd, who the Romans knew as Nodens. (In the Irish version, he’s Lugh, slayer of the one-eyed giant Balor.) Leir’s threedaughters recall Mormo; the “henbane god” Belinus might be any hallucination-inducing titan. According to Milton, “Diana”appeared to Brutus in a dream, while he slept in a ruined temple on a mysterious deserted island. Is Britain actually Dagon’sisland? Is London originally Iod Dun? It’s all up to the Keeper.

Tothill, west of Westminster Abbey, is oneof the three sacred hills of London (alongwith Penton Hill south of Islington andTower Hill).

WestminsterX. Technically a city of its own, Westminsteris the centre of the Empire. It contains notonly the Houses of Parliament, but thegovernment offices of Whitehall (including10 Downing Street, the residence ofthe Prime Minister), the Admiralty,New Scotland Yard, Buckingham Palace,Belgravia (perhaps London’s wealthiest

neighbourhood), and Westminster Abbey.Trafalgar Square, on the northeast corner ofWestminster, holds Nelson’s Column andabuts the National Gallery and St. Martin-in-the-Fields’ Church. Piccadilly Circusis the Dionysian twin of the ApollonianTrafalgar Square, dominated by thealuminium statue of Eros, lit by neon signs,and surrounded by theatres.

Archaeology: “Cleopatra’s Needle” onthe Embankment is actually an obelisk ofThutmose III dedicated to Ra, Atum, and

Horus, erected at the gateway to Heliopolis,City of the Sun, in 1450 B.C. (Its twin isin New York City’s Central Park.) Six mendrowned bringing it to London. A GermanZeppelin raid bombed it in 1917, but onlydamaged one of the decorative sphinxes.

London ClubsThe original Old Boys’ Network of over 100 clubs festoons Pall Mall and St. James’s. Everyone who is any sort of

gentleman in London belongs to at least one club. A gentleman’s club offers a library, current newspapers, meeting andwriting rooms, billiard and card rooms, and (usually) dining facilities. Some include private sleeping rooms for members;they are the London gentleman’s “home from home,” and his choice of club is part of his identity. Some clubs makereciprocal memberships available to members of suitable clubs in New York, Paris, or other cities.

Memberships start at Credit Rating 5 in most cases, although the United University Club is open to graduates ofOxford and Cambridge, and most Dilettantes have suitable connexions for club membership regardless of their straitenedcircumstances. Also, some clubs such as the Army and Navy Club, Burlington Fine Arts Club (for artists andpatrons), Cavalry Club, the Garrick Club (for actors), the Gresham Club (for bankers), the Press Club, the St. James’s Club (for the diplomatic service), and the United Service Club (military officers above the rank of Major orCommander) are open to members of their professions (Credit Rating 4 and a suitable Occupation).

Some clubs are explicitly political: White’s and Brooks’s began as the Tory and Whig associations in the 1780s, theCarlton Club is the Conservative Party club (along with the Constitutional, the St. Stephen’s, and the ConservativeClub), and the Reform the Liberal Party club (as well as the National Liberal Club and the Cobden Club).Other clubs join gentlemen of common interests: the Eccentric Club and the Green Room Club invite lovers of thestage (and even music halls), the Jockey Club is for race-horse owners and lovers of the Turf, the Royal Aero Clubfor enthusiasts of flight, and ghost-breaker Harry Price even runs a Ghost Club. Some clubs exist primarily as places forgentlemen to gamble at cards: the Portland, Bagatelle, and Visconti Clubs, for example.

Members of the Athenaeum are “known for their scientific and literary attainments, artists of eminence, and noblemenand gentlemen distinguished as liberal patrons,” while it is said of the Savile Club that “they won’t elect you unless you’rean atheist or have written a book.” To be considered for the Hemlock Club you must have done something “notoriousand heretical,” while members of the Savage Club must appreciate all the arts, especially the vintner’s. Members ofthe Travellers’ Club must have traveled 500 miles from London; the American Club serves American expatriatesin London; members of the Oriental Club must have served in India; members of the Bath Club simply don’t enjoyswimming at public baths; the Diogenes Club exists to provide club facilities for misanthropes.

Ladies’ clubs exist, including the University Women’s Club for female university graduates, the Lyceum Club forfemale artists, writers, and the “wives and daughters of distinguished men,” and female auxiliaries to gentleman’s clubs suchas the Ladies’ Army and Navy, the Ladies’ Carlton, and the Women’s Press Club.

• A strange man in smokedglasses has entered two or threeestablishments in the Stranddemanding direction to “Master John Denley’s shop, as I must delivera consignment of books to him.”His accent is queerly broad,and his manner both arrogantand reticent. He walks with apronounced limp. So far, nobodyhas successfully explained tohim that John Denley closed hisoccult bookshop in Catherine

Street in 1840 and died in 1842.

• There is a “secret library” hiddenin plain sight in the stacks of theBritish Museum by a conspiracyof librar ians. Only they knowthe secret catalogue, and theyshelve the books (often suitablyrebound in false covers) inseemingly innocuous and slightlyincorrect locations throughoutthe Library stacks.

Servant(Bargain, Credit Rating,Reassurance)

Every decent house in London has atleast one – and ideally four or five –servants, from the “lady who does”up to a staff of maids, footmen, andchauffeurs. Some o f them still “livein,” but an increasing number live

on their own across the river or inthe East End.

Talking to a servant as an equal isonly possible with equality of CreditRating, from 1 (downstairs maid)to 4 (butler or valet); servants are,if anything, more class-consciousthan their masters. They freeze outtheir inferiors, and clam up to their betters. That said, a few bob can dowonders (Bargain) if presented witha suitably innocuous expression

(Reassurance).

Servants socialize with each otherwhile on their various rounds tomarkets, shops, or laundries. Theygather all manner of news and(literally) backstairs gossip aboutall manner of great houses, but arefar more willing to part with juicyrumours about other families thantheir own employers.

Prostitute(Negotiation, Streetwise)

Of any age or appearance, theprostitute is London’s native bird.High-class call girls work fromtownhouses in Notting Hill or St. John’s Wood or from very discreet

brothels even closer to the quality.Some have business arrangementswith salesmen’s hotels nearPaddington Station. Other girlsply their trade on the streets anddoorsteps of Soho and Seven Dials.

Prostitutes are reluctant to wastetheir valuable time talking to youwhen they could be attracting thetrade; you may need to make itworth their while (Negotiation).However, they don’t practise much

in the way of client confidentiality;they can tell all sorts of thingsabout all sorts of people, many ofwhich are both surprising and true.They might even be open for a spotof acting in a shor t con (Streetwise)or the like. Of course, they’ll sellyou out for about what you paidthem, so the clever Bookhoundcan use them to send a messageupstream to their procurer or eventheir clientele.

Architecture: Nicholas Hawksmoor

a protégé of the great ChristopherWren, surveyed, sited, and designedsix churches (three in the East End) between 1711 and 1733. Stronglyinfluenced by Roman and Renaissancedesigns, Hawksmoor included Classicaand Egyptian features in his works.

The Knowledge: The BoundaryEstate in Bethnal Green is the firstcouncil housing in London. It was builon the site of the miserably crowdedand hellish Old Nichol Rookery (acity slum), named for sightings of “OldNick” (or for John Nichol, who ownedseven houses here in 1680).

The pillars of St. Matthias’ Old Churchin Poplar are ships’ masts from EastIndiamen.

Law: John Williams, of peculiarly“serpentine” appearance, was arrestedat the Pear-Tree Inn in Wapping for the brutal hammer-and-razor murders o

two families on the Ratcliff Highway in1811. He was found hanged in prisonand was beheaded and buried at thecrossroads of Cable and Cannon Streetwith a stake through his heart. His skulcurrently resides at the Crown andDolphin tavern, hard by Hawksmoor’sSt. George in the East.

The East EndXII. The East End of London extends

as far as Blackwall on the Thames, but it begins at the edge of the City.In fact, the “Bow Bells” (which alltrue Cockneys must be born withinthe sound of) are in Cheapside in theCity. Jack the Ripper killed one of hisvictims (Catherine Eddowes) in theCity, in Mitre Square, but the othersleft a bloody trail pointing east. TheEast End began as marshy groundoutside the walls of the city proper,slowly drained by the original “BlackWall” of the Saxons. Since mediaevaltimes, the East End has been whereLondon put its blood, its stenches, andits death: tanneries, slaughterhouses,and fulling-yards. The docks and canals brought steady work, along with injuryand ague; the ships brought crowdsof foreign sailors and workmen, andcrowds of British whores and thieves.Gin-houses and music-halls sprang up,as did radical politics and dissentingcults. Homes were small and streetswere narrow even in Elizabethan times;

with factories, gasworks, and work-houses rising in the Victorian era, thingsgot even worse. The East End became“the Abyss.”

Its 1,000,000 residents – including100,000 Jews and 200,000 otherimmigrants – dwell in crowded,impoverished slums little differentfrom the ones the Ripper stalkedfifty years previously: Shoreditch (acentre of prostitution since the 17thcentury), Bethnal Green (famous for

boxing and blood sport since the 18thcentury), Stepney (location of the“Siege of Sidney Street” in 1911 andthe “Battle of Cable Street” in 1936),Limehouse (where opium and cocaineenter London), Poplar (the poorest borough in England), Wapping (site of“Execution Dock,” where pirates werehung in chains), and the Ripper’s ownWhitechapel.

Beggar(Assess Honesty, Bargain, TheKnowledge)

In these Depression days, beggarsare more common than theyused to be, even in more genteelneighbourhoods than the East Endcan boast. Shabby and unshaven,they somehow manage to averttheir gaze from their betters whileeyeing any likely prospect. Beggarshave their lots, their establishedterritory; knowing London wellmeans knowing who begs on whatcorner (The Knowledge).

They see a lot, some of it useful,some of it reliable; it takes onlya few pence to get information(Bargain) but a keen ear to siftit (Assess Honesty).

As a dedicatedBookhound, you recognize thefirst lines of two of his “trancedictations” as titles of lost essays by Thomas De Quincey: “But if Isubmitted with Resignation, not theless I searched for the Unsearchable —sometimes in Arab Deserts, sometimes inthe Sea” and “Oh, sweep away, Angel,with Angelic Scorn, the Dogs that comewith Curious Eyes to gaze.” The boysays only that “an old blind ladyshowed me the papers and wrotethe words on my tongue with coalfire.”

• Suspiciously blond and Teutonic-looking “antiquarians” are combingWapping, Poplar, and TowerHamlets looking for “Hebrew books.” Perhaps the Ahnenerbehas decided to recover the “BaalShem of London’s” hidden trove

of kabbalistic and alchemicaldocuments, which Falk ordered“securely treasured up, but neveropened, nor looked into” in hiswill. Since the only person to eversee these documents since 1782,Falk’s executor Aaron Goldsmid,died the next day, surely theAhnenerbe won’t be able to tellforgeries from the real things.

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

South LondonXV,XVI,XVII. If North London is generally

unfashionable, South London isspecifically unfashionable, and has beenat least since Tudor times, when the bear- baitings and theatres flourished acrossthe Thames in Southwark. Under theRomans, Southwark was a burial ground;under the Stuarts, practically a prisoncolony (including the eponymous ClinkStreet Prison). Like the East End, it has itsdockyards (Rotherhithe, Deptford, andGreenwich), its “stink trades” (gasworks,dye-works, leather-works), and its slummiseries (Bermondsey and Lambeth).Despite the presence of the Archbishopof Canterbury’s Lambeth Palace, the borough has long held bawdy-houses,music-halls, pleasure-gardens, andBedlam – originally, St. Mary BethlehemHospital for the Insane. The sanitariummoved to south suburban Beckenham in1920, and its Georgian buildings standempty until 1936, when the Imperial WarMuseum moves in. That same year, theCrystal Palace burns down in Sydenham;war and fire move into South London

three years early.

Underground London

The Underground, or the Tube, is London’s subway system, using about 90 miles of tunnels (averaging 12 feetwide and 65 feet below the street) during the Thirties – with an unknown number of abandoned, dead-end, anddisused tunnels dating back to the many competing subway companies who began digging in the 1860s. (SubterraneanLondon also has an abandoned Pneumatic Railway, operated between 1863 and 1880, and a “driverless” electric PostOffice Railway for carrying mail underground.) In 1933, these companies merge with the bus and tram lines into theLondon Passenger Transport Board, which embarks on a major rationalisation and construction programme for theUnderground.

The LPTB extends three Underground lines with new tunnels (on the Piccadilly, Bakerloo, and Northern Lines),electrifies and re-tracks two lines (Central Line and Metropolitan Line), and builds new stations (St. John’s Wood andSwiss Cottage; Highgate and East Finchley are completed in 1941). This programme also sets off a wave of stationclosures, simply abandoning tracks, tunnels, and sometimes platforms down in the darkness. Down Street and YorkRoad (both close 1932), British Museum (closes 1933), Brompton Road (closes 1934), St. Mary’s Whitechapel (closes1938), and Lord’s (closes 1939) join the six other closed (or re-sited) tube stations in the subterranean Undergroundsystem.

Another eleven miles of service duct tunnels, for gas, water, and hydraulic power pipes, run under London,with their spine (a dank, six-foot wide brick tunnel) along the Embankment, and their heart in a forty-foot deep cast-iron pumping station beneath Piccadilly Circus. London’s sewers run for 500 miles; some of them dating back tothe 13th century, although the largest and best-mapped are 12-foot diameter, oval-sectioned brick vaults of Victorianvintage. (Most of the rest are 4-foot diameter feeder lines.) “Flushers” travel through them, digging up solidified waste,making noisome discoveries, and occasionally dying suddenly.

Some of London’s sewers began as rivers, eventually choked with refuse, bricked over, and forgotten during thecity’s history. They still flow into the Thames through half-sunken conduits, some covered with iron gratings and otherssimply lost. The river east of Tower Hill beneath Wapping is completely nameless; the “Black Ditch” under Stepneyand Poplar almost so. The Walbrook runs from Islington under Walbrook Street in the City; in 1866 archaeologistsdiscovered a large deposit of Roman skulls in the riverbed, likely beheaded by either Boadicea or the praetorian prefect

Asclepiodotus. The River Fleet at least gave its name to Fleet Street, and feral pigs surviving from its years as an open-air sewer reportedly roam through it, killing and eating anything they encounter. All of London’s rivers and sewers areinfested with brown rats in the millions, of course, but the rivers also host schools of strange blind eels and remarkablyresilient frogs.

The Tyburn runs beneath Westminster, passing below Buckingham Palace, Whitehall, and the Houses of Parliament.In 1875, workmen stumbled onto an intact Roman bath along the Tyburn, 40 feet below North Audley Street. Partsof the Westbourne are still above ground as “the Serpentine” in Hyde Park; it flows into the Thames under Chelsea. InSouth London, the Neckinger rises under the old grounds of Bedlam and flows in a great curve to Bermondsey; alongthe way it meets the Earl’s Sluice, a mediaeval mill-race turned subterranean river. Its course is almost completelyunknown south of Rotherhithe. Both originate in the River Peck, which now flows out of the Honor Oak Reservoir inPeckham, built in 1909 and still the largest underground reservoir in Europe.

South London also contains a number of mysterious caverns and barrows. “Deneholes,” or narrow shafts dug

as deep as 80 feet into the chalk all over Essex and Kent, may have been chalk mines, refuges from invading Danes, orstar-sighting posts for the Druids. Jack Cade’s Cavern in Blackheath is much larger, 60 feet deep and 200 feet long, itwas rediscovered in 1780, turned into a club for orgiasts (after a tourist business killed a young girl from “noxious air”)and was closed by shocked authorities in 1854; its entrance remains lost until 1939. Chislehurst in southeast Londonhas its share of deneholes, but is most famous for the Chislehurst Caves, originally flint mines dug by the Druids andexpanded by the Romans. During the Great War, the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich (itself sitting on a labyrinth of tunnels begun in 1716) used the Caves to store ammunition. Greenwich has a drained Naval reservoir (turfed over in 1871), atleast two abandoned subterranean conduit systems, 400 feet of “sand tunnels” under Nightingale Lane, and a networkof tunnels between Bronze Age barrows in Greenwich Park.

London CemeteriesPerhaps 20 million people have died in London since the Romans founded

Londinium in 43 A.D. The Romans buried their dead outside the walls andacross the Thames, as did the Saxons; by mediaeval times, each parish buriedits own dead in its crypt or by its church. Not all the dead met consecratedends, of course: suicides were staked at local crossroads until 1823, forexample, and murderers were left in waste ground like the Isle of Dogs or(starting in the 1600s) given to anatomical schools. Plague victims filledplague pits like the one under Golden Square in Soho, or the 4-acre plague burying-ground hastily enclosed at Bunhill Fields in 1665. (Originally namedBone-Hill Fields, as church crypts would dispose of old bones there to makeroom for new interments.) Never consecrated, it became the cemetery for

London’s Nonconformists, holding (among 120,000 others) William Blakeand Daniel Defoe.

Over the centuries, even the smallest churchyards filled up, and more:St. Martin-in-the-Fields’ churchyard holds perhaps 65,000 bodies in its mere200 square feet. The Burial Act of 1852 closed such over-full graveyards andestablished several larger, newer cemeteries in what were then the outskirtsof the city: Kensal Green and Brompton Cemeteries in the west, Norwoodand Nunhead Cemeteries in South London, Victoria and Tower HamletsCemeteries in the East End, and Abney Park and Highgate Cemeteries in thenorth. Highgate, especially, was built as a Greco-Egyptian landscaped garden ofdeath; it has an appropriately haunted reputation as the lair of resurrectionists,ghouls, vampires, and ghosts. A tunnel under Swains Road connecting the twosides of the cemetery was perhaps understandably abandoned in the later 19th

century.More cemeteries were built even farther outside London: in Ilford and

Leytonstone in Essex, at New Southgate on the northern edge of the city,and Brookwood Cemetery in Surrey. This 450-acre London Necropolis, asit was also known, is the largest graveyard in Britain, and one of the largestin the world. Beginning in 1854 a special “Necropolis Railway” served thecemetery; by 1900, a train a day carried coffins and the bereaved, leaving froma special station near Waterloo. Although Brookwood added a 37-acre militarycemetery in 1917, traffic on the Necropolis Railway has dropped to once ortwice a week by the Thirties.

Fuller is botha pro-German fascist (attending Hitler’ birthday party in 1939) and a sorcerouinitiate who studied with Aleister Crowleyin the Argentum Astrum starting in 1907.

Brotherhood of the Yellow SignThere is little mi-go activity in Englandthe Brotherhood in London acts as asupport office for cult actions in Waleand Scotland. Occasionally local Hasturcults spin off of Brotherhood cells, or viceversa: London’s large theatrical and artisticscenes are natural breeding-grounds onihilistic Hastur-worship. Such aestheticHastur cults spring up in Chelsea, SohoBloomsbury, and Covent Garden. (The

music-halls of the East End may nurtureHastur cults tinctured with despair ratherthan with ennui.) The Brotherhood’actual operations are based in Lambethconvenient both to Waterloo Station andBedlam.

With a possible connection between themi-go and Rhan-Tegoth (p. 66), theBrotherhood is currently in search oworks of polar and Arctic lore, includingPnakotic manuscripts or fragmentsThe Brotherhood also seeks out (or

occasionally, seeks to plant) copies of ThKing in Yellow. It may inspire other Hasturcults to do likewise, intentionally or byexample.

To say nothing of the loose circleof Druids sexually attracted to certaintrees in London’s parks and commons,or the female-only Duckdom House inKensington filled with living waxworksand automata of uncanny beauty, or the“S” Society of young Soho rakes descendedfrom the avenging mediaeval Holy Vehm

In short, the Keeper should feel free to beat least as imaginative as Elliott O’Donnellin populating the secret underside ofLondon.

Corebook CultsSome of the Mythos cults mentioned inthe Trail of Cthulhu corebook are active(or potentially so) in London during the

Thirties.

Ahenenerbe: Until the outbreak ofwar in 1939, they operate officially out ofthe German Embassy in Carlton House.Ahnenerbe agents haunt the BritishMuseum and its antiquities, and eagerlyseek out copies of Mythos tomes –especially the Cthaat Aquadingen and those by von Junzt and his circle.

They may have contacts with the British

Along with the temptations andcruelties that any swarming hive ofhumans will concoct for themselves –and London has been cruelly temptingthose who dwell there since before Julius Caesar’s day – come the specialtaints and horrors of the CthulhuMythos. Nowhere that has held somuch power, so much knowledge, so

much treasure taken from so manycorners of the world, can escape theattentions of cults starving for powerand magi craving knowledge, or thecurses that follow certain thingsconsidered treasure by the unwary.

The gods, titans, and aliens of theMythos may consider humankind littlemore than ants scurrying beneath theirnotice. Perhaps. But some of those antshave dug deep and brought up strangethings. And eight million ants may be

worth crushing underfoot, or burningout.

Among the Egyptian servants at theHall was a hard core of Brothers, who soonestablished their cult centre in the West IndiaDocks.

Witch-Cult: Chelmsford, the heart ofthe witch-cult in the east of England (majorcult trials in 1566, 1589, and 1645), isonly 30 miles northeast of London. Thewitch Joan Peterson, hanged at Tyburn in1652, was the last major member of thecult uncovered in London itself. Splintersof the cult infiltrated the court and societyover the next two centuries, surfacing ascovert covens or Satanist sects, worshipingon Primrose Hill or in debauched Chelseaclubs. A coven in the New Forest inHampshire seeks to reunite the Old Faith;its main rival in London is a cult of Mormo,mostly comprising Mediterranean andLevantine immigrants to the city, centred inSpitalfields.

Witch-cultists seek grimoires and Books ofShadows – magic books hand-assembled by warlocks and sorcerers, containing the

record of their rites and workings. Theyalso seek diaries, letters, or other booksthat reveal cult membership in the past orpresent.

Yithian Agents: With the 1931 arrivalof Rhan-Tegoth in London, Yithian activityin the city increases markedly. IncarnatedYithians already use the British Library andMuseum for their researches; Yithian agentsin Oxford and Cambridge coordinate inLondon’s more anonymous station hotels,and in nondescript solicitors’ offices. With

the influx of Yithians this decade, the agents’covert infrastructure is under some strain.Yithian high technology may go missing,sold by corrupt cut-outs or stolen bycurious gangsters. The Yithians and theiragents urgently seek any Pnakotic materials,driving up the prices of such works (andMythos tomes in general) until Rhan-Tegothleaves or the War disrupts their operations.

Egyptological manuscripts and booksthe library of such texts at the PenhewFoundation is justly famous in scholarly (and

bibliographic) circles. The Mythos tomethey most prize is De Vermis Mysteriis (alongwith any other work ascribable to LudvigPrinn), but the G’harne Fragments mighalso especially arouse their interest, as wilthe Scrolls of Bubastis and any grimoireassociated with Nyarlathotep in any guise.

Responses: The Brotherhood believes indelivering warnings before unleashing theunearthly powers of the Black Pharaoh. A“warning” is a savage beating with a heavyclub ended by fatally impaling the victim onthe spike in the club’s end. Such warningsmight be delivered to Investigators, bumost likely to their friends, family, or otherSources of Stability. The Brotherhood directfog-spawn, hunting horrors, dimensionashamblers, or star-vampires to their mospersistent foes.

Hsieh-Tzu FanIts name means “the banner of the Scorpion,and every servant of the cult has a scorpion

tattooed somewhere on their person. TheScorpion is the unknown, unseen Master othe cult, ruling it absolutely from the Houseof Dreams, an opium den in LimehouseHe recruits ruthless assassins from alcorners of the world as his agents andlieutenants, enslaving them with addictionto a golden elixir that massively accelerateand amplifies muscle, reflexes, and mentaacuity (see box).

The Scorpion is, in actuality, L’mur-Kathulos, undying sorcerer of sunken

Atlantis. A 1912 deep-sea ichthyologicaexpedition headed by the late Professorvon Lorfmon somehow snared his coffinoff Senegal, awakening him from suspendedanimation; as “Kathulos the Egyptian,” theAtlantean magus rapidly built an army oterrorists, smugglers, slavers, and rebels inthe African interior. The tumult of the GreaWar allowed him to recruit followers fromevery corner of Europe’s empires and fromthe seething kingdoms of the East. Aftera brief power struggle against a similarly

Shanghai, and Nairobi.

Hooks: The Brotherhood can attractinvestigation by stalking or attackingEgyptologists, British officers or officialsrecently returned from duty in Egypt,or immigrants from Egypt of any sort.Any adventure or scenario with Egyptianelements -- Bast cultists, giant crocodile-monsters in the Walbrook, mummies, man-eating scarabs, etc. -- probably has someconnexion to the Brotherhood’s fell doings.

The Brotherhood covets Egyptian or

institute, the Penhew Foundation inBloomsbury. Its London membership is

now only about a quarter Egyptians, withthe rest being Indians, Arabs, or Britons.Most of its membership, and all its priests,are men.

Distribution: The Brotherhood’s main branches are in Egypt, the Sudan, andLondon, although there may be BlackPharaoh cultists anywhere “east of Suez.”Beginning in the 1920s, the Brotherhoodexplores links with other Nyarlathotep cultsacross the world, especially in New York,

The Golden DawnThe Thirties are three decades too late for London’s best-known magical

society. Founded by S.L. MacGregor Mathers in London in 1888, theHermetic Order of the Golden Dawn collapsed in mutual recriminationsin 1900, fragmenting into competing orders. The scholar A.E. Waite led the“Isis-Urania Temple” into Christian mysticism; it closed in 1914. Irish poetWilliam Butler Yeats stayed with another splinter order, the Stella Matutina,which continued magical workings in London until 1919. Mathers’ loyalists became known as the Alpha et Omega; his London temple (on the originalpremises of the Isis-Urania Temple) had a brief resurgence in the 1920s underMathers’ widow Moina. With the publication of the Order’s secret rituals byIsrael Regardie in 1937, the Golden Dawn becomes completely moribund.Its legacy in the Thirties rests with two of its alumni.

Aleister Crowley (1875-1945)

Although he left the Golden Dawn in 1900 after a failed attempt to seizecontrol of the London lodge, the drug fiend, poet, and magician AleisterCrowley put off a formal break with Mathers until 1907. That year, Crowleyfounded the Argentum Astrum and published his Book of the Law , revealedto him in Cairo by the spirit “Aiwass” in 1904. In 1910, Crowley joined aGerman society, the Ordo Templi Orientalis (O.T.O.), and eventually becameits Outer Head in 1925. In 1929, he published Magick in Theory and Practice.By the Thirties, Crowley is essentially bankrupt, in and out of law courts andtabloids. He divides his time between London (Knightsbridge, then WelbeckStreet, then Chelsea) and the Continent, visiting Germany numerous times.In 1938, he begins work on his Book of Thoth tarot deck.

Dion Fortune (1890-1946)The psychic Violet Mary Firth joined the Alpha et Omega in 1919, taking

the magical name Dion Fortune, transferring to the Stella Matutina shortlyafterward, studying under a magus named Theodore Moriarty. After writinga number of successful novels and works of mysticism, she founded her ownorder in Bayswater, the Fraternity (later Society) of the Inner Light. By 1928,the Inner Light was completely separate from the Alpha et Omega. Althougha devout (if mystical) Christian, her work in the Thirties becomes steadilymore pagan, exalting Pan and the mystery cults as embodiments of Atlanteanwisdom. In 1935, she publishes The Mystical Qabalah, her masterwork.

law-enforcement or colonial administrationwallahs) and scientists (especially researchersinto weapons, oceanography, biology, or

Oriental studies). The Hsieh-Tzu Fan alsoinserts itself into gang wars, attempting todestroy or co-opt rivals in the underworld.Kathulos may strike pre-emptively at suchrivals, or even at rival cults such as theBrotherhood (who dominate London’sEgyptian community), the cult of Mormo(which also recruits heavily from London’sLevantine population), or the Keirecheires(whose abstruse drugs compete withhis heroin, hashish, and opium). Over-enthusiastic (and racist) Ahnenerbe assetsmight also attack Kathulos’ non-whiteagents, trying to seize his Atlantean wisdomfor the Reich.

The Hsieh-Tzu Fan will take a specialinterest in books, journals, and reportsdealing with Africa, deep-sea research, andChinese secret societies. In addition to theSeven Cryptical Books of Hsan and the R’lyehText, they will stop at nothing to own worksof Atlantean lore such as the true Book ofDzyanor the Scrolls of Bubastis.

Responses: Kathulos prefers his murderseither completely undetectable (disguisedas suicides, accidents, diseases, heart attacks,etc.) or grotesquely outré (strange animal bites, horrific wounds from unknownweapons, spontaneous combustion in violetflame, etc.) His assassins are often mastersof disguise, capable of impersonatingpolicemen, locals, women … or eventhe victim himself! If given time, the cultwill investigate a target until the perfectopportunity arises to strike invisibly. Failingthat, they will send a monstrous insect,

gigantic snake, or other horrific entity to dothe deed as dramatically as possible, strikingfear into any would-be opponents.

KeirecheiresFrom the Classical Greek meaning“devouring hands,” the Keirecheires beganin 1894 as a group of Classics dons andstudents at Brichester University devotedto aesthetic and sexual experimentation.School authorities broke up the Brichestergroup after a grotesque rape-cannibalism

Distribution: The Hsieh-Tzu Fan iscentred wherever Kathulos happens to be:

Africa, London, Alexandria after the War,Peking in the early Twenties, Nairobi afterthat, London in 1928 and (mostly) since.Its tendrils extend wherever triads, tongs,dacoit societies, or other Asian criminalorganizations operate: the Hsieh-Tzu Fancontrols a number of them outright andhas brought the others into a worldwidesyndicate fueled by the heroin and armssmuggling trade.

In London, the Hsieh-Tzu Fan is strongest inthe Chinese neighbourhoods of Limehouse,

Poplar, and Stepney; in the Indian andBengali neighbourhoods of Finsbury,Bethnal Green, and Battersea; in the Jamaican neighbourhoods of Brixton; and inthe cosmopolitan, polyglot “square mile ofvice” in Soho. Throughout the East End andthe docks, it controls most criminal activitydirectly or indirectly.

Hooks: The skull-faced Kathulos showshis clawed hand by killing, kidnapping, orsuborning European officials (especially

expanding Chinese secret society, Kathulos joined it (disguised as a Manchu mandarin)

and remade it in his own image as the Hsieh-Tzu Fan.

Kathulos’ goal is global dominion and theeventual raising of Atlantis. To that end,the Hsieh-Tzu Fan controls the drug tradeworldwide, poisoning the decadent Westand its would-be masters of the Orient. Headdicts, blackmails, and destroys powerfulofficials in Europe and America, seekingto rot out their governments from within before launching a global rebellion.

Unlike the Brotherhood of the BlackPharaoh, the Hsieh-Tzu Fan has manyfemale agents and high-ranking cultists.Kathulos may despise whites (knowingthem to be a lower form of humanity, whointerbred with monstrous apes) but heisn’t sexist. That said, he does not scrupleto operate brothels, use seductive “honeytraps” on high-ranking targets, or engage insexual blackmail and bribery when drugsare insufficient to the task.

The Elixir of KathulosThis golden fluid acts as an ultimate alchemical stimulant, overriding the

effects of any drug on the user. (Black lotus, space-mead, liao, and similarlymagical substances may interact with the elixir in interesting ways rather than being damped out.) Its effects are continuous after ingestion:

• Provides 3 additional pool points in Athletics, Scuffling, and Weapons.• Increases Hit Threshold by 1.• Increases Alertness Modifier (Trail of Cthulhu corebook, p. 126) by +1.• Increases all hand-to-hand damage by +1 (for example, fists now do -1;

swords do +2).• If an Investigator doses himself with it (unwisely!), it also adds 2 pool

points to Sense Trouble, Evidence Collection, and to any intellectual subjectrequiring long study or quick intuition.

• After 8 hours, the drinker must ingest another dose or begin losing 1

Health and 1 Stability every hour as withdrawal kicks in.• Overdosing on the elixir multiplies its effect: for example, drinking 3doses provides 9 additional pool points in Scuffling, etc., and increases allhand-to-hand damage by +3. The maximum effective overdose is 4 doses.

Only Kathulos knows the secret of the elixir’s manufacture. He mixes itinto the wine and food served to his assassins in the House of Dreams, onlyproviding it in pure form to agents on extended missions for him.

the arts. Each branch has perhaps 20 or 30debauchees (usually called Sons), in additionto the actual cultists in charge.

Hooks: The cult seeks out those sufferingfrom unfulfilled desires, usually artisticprofessional, or sexual; it is especially activein the drug and sexual underground. If aSource of Stability or a repressed scholarsuccumbs to the cult’s blandishments, he begins a slow, inevitable spiral through druguse, abusive and impersonal sex, apathyand despair, into fetid communion withY’golonac. Investigators might also noticeuncanny or disturbing content in films, ar“happenings,” public lectures, or radical Lefpropaganda in Soho or Bloomsbury.

The Keirecheires cross the path oBookhounds in the pornography tradethey are reliable clients for works of outréeven impossible erotica, the more debasedthe better. Sons are more likely to seek suchworks than the Fingers themselves; they alsoprick up their ears at drug-influenced poetryand prose from de Quincey to Verlaine to Justin Geoffrey. In the Mythos and occulcontext, they seek copies of the Revelation

of Glaaki, The King in Yellow, and records oinquisitorial tortures and Black Masses.

Responses: The Keirecheires are not welequipped to slug it out on the physical oroccult battlefield: although the Five are alcapable of manifesting as avatars ofY’golonac by now, they know that such acts haveunpredictable consequences. (Exorbitanlaundry and tailor bills are the least oit.) Instead, faced with opponents whocannot be easily tempted with perversionor poison, they use their connections in

Rhan-Tegoth

“THERE WAS AN ALMOST GLOBULAR TORSO, WITH SIX LONG, SINUOUS LIMBS TERMINATING IN CRAB-LIKE CLAWS. FROM THE

UPPER END A SUBSIDIARY GLOBE BULGED FORTH BUBBLE-LIKE; ITS TRIANGLE OF THREE STARING, FISHY EYES, ITS FOOT-LONG

AND EVIDENTLY FLEXIBLE PROBOSCIS, AND A DISTENDED LATERAL SYSTEM ANALOGOUS TO GILLS, SUGGESTING THAT IT WAS A

HEAD. MOST OF THE BODY WAS COVERED WITH WHAT AT FIRST APPEARED TO BE FUR, BUT WHICH ON CLOSER EXAMINATION

PROVED TO BE A DENSE GROWTH OF DARK, SLENDER TENTACLES OR SUCKING FILAMENTS, EACH TIPPED WITH A MOUTH

SUGGESTING THE HEAD OF AN ASP. ON THE HEAD AND BELOW THE PROBOSCIS THE TENTACLES TENDED TO BE LONGER AND

THICKER, MARKED WITH SPIRAL STRIPES – SUGGESTING THE TRADITIONAL SERPENT-LOCKS OF MEDUSA.”

– THE HORROR IN THE MUSEUM

• Rhan-Tegoth, Lord of the Ivory Throne, reigned over a prehuman city in Alaska, dwelling on an ivory thronethree million years ago, when the Arctic was temperate. It fell into hibernation when the climate changed.

• The occultist and showman George Rogers discovered Rhan-Tegoth in Alaska and shipped It to London in 1931,storing It in a water tank in the back room of Rogers’ Museum of wax attractions. After Rogers’ disappearance inSeptember of 1932, It went on display briefly until a police order suspended the exhibit as unsuitable for publicviewing. Its current whereabouts in London are unknown.

• The Pnakotic Manuscripts discuss Rhan-Tegoth and the other polar gods; the eighth Pnakotic fragment givesthe ritual needed to awaken It from hibernation.

• Rhan-Tegoth came to Earth from Yuggoth along with Ghatanothoa. It ruled the Pirrak, a race of bladder-like beings in the warm seas under Yuggoth’s ice, until the mi-go defeated them and dumped their toxic god on Earth.

• Rhan-Tegoth is the blister around the wound in reality caused by the Great Old Ones’ approach to Euclideanspace-time. If Rhan-Tegoth dies, that rift closes and the Great Old Ones can never return.

• Rhan-Tegoth is the scab over the wound in reality caused by the Great Old Ones’ approach to Euclidean space-time. If Rhan-Tegoth dies, the scab rips off and opens the way for the Great Old Ones’ return.

• Rhan-Tegoth is, like Chaugnar Faugn and Ghatanothoa, an entity composed of temporal differential. InIts presence, molecular motion stops and starts chaotically, creating anything from motion in dead tissue, tospontaneous sentience in light particles, to an ice age.

• Rhan-Tegoth’s distortion of time randomly melds consciousnesses across eras, opens temporal doorways, andattracts the attention of the Great Race of Yith. Yithian agents cluster where Rhan-Tegoth manifests: primordialLomar, modern London, etc.

• Rhan-Tegoth is worshiped by the gnoph-keh, and by certain remote tribes of Esquimaux shunned by theirfellows for interbreeding with the horrors of the snows.

• Rhan-Tegoth is a Water-elemental created by Tsathoggua in an attempt to unite all matter-energy underhimself; It is akin to Rlim Shaikorth (the White Worm, created of Air) and Aphoom Zhah (the Icy Gray Flame, a

Fire entity) in this wise.• Rhan-Tegoth, Rlim Shaikorth, and Aphoom Zhah are mortal enemies who competed for worshipers and slavesin the primordial kingdoms of the North: Lomar, Hyperborea, Zobna, and Mhu Thulan.

• During the ceremony known as the Judgment of Rhan-Tegoth, the god’s worshipers approach It with asacrifice. It implants Its own divine matter into the bodies of those who have served It well. It drains the life andflesh of those who have not, leaving only their empty, paper-like skin behind.

• Beholding Rhan-Tegoth costs an additional +3 (1) Stability pool points, and +2 (1) Sanity pool points, per p.86 of Trail of Cthulhu. If the beholder believes Rhan-Tegoth to be only a waxwork, such losses are halved.

The Things From the CorebookWhile the Keeper can introduce any monster she likes into her version of London, the following creatures detailed in

the core Trail of Cthulhu rulebook seem eminently appropriate for a campaign in the Smoke.Byakhee and Hunting Horrors: These aerial attackers might lurk in attic or tower fanes to Hastur or Nyarlathotep,

or drop down out of space to spark thrilling midnight chases across London’s roofscape.Dark Young: Might appear anywhere London’s Druid past awakens, or where there are enough old trees or neglect to

furnish camouflage: Primrose Hill? Deptford Park? Hampstead Heath?Deep Ones: Might accompany local cultists of Cthulhu (see p. 61) or clamber out of the North Sea onto the

Gravesend Reach or Woolwich, or swim up the Thames (or its subterranean tributaries) to almost any neighbourhood.Dimensional Shamblers and Star Vampires: Both likely servitors of grimoire-seeking madmen, or the ace in the

hole of some unsavoury criminal gang.Formless Spawn of Tsathoggua: Bubbling up from subterranean N’kai, they might lurk anywhere in London’s

lightless underground, squeezing through crumbling mediaeval stonework or slithering along forgotten Victorian tunnels.Ghouls: Somehow combining antiquarian interest with underground lore, ghouls might be the ideal totem monster for

Bookhounds of London. They’re hardly restricted to London’s official cemeteries, but that’s an excellent place to start. Anotheris Liverpool Street Station: not just a major hub of the Underground, but also the site of a 17th-century plague pit.

Lloigor: Although the lloigor more famously haunt Wales and Scotland, one can’t rule out such things nearer toLondon: the Fen country, Wiltshire, or even Henham in Essex (home of a river-dragon in mediaeval legend). Even if nolloigor lies coiled beneath the Pool at Rotherhithe, cultists or lloigor-tainted families might come to London on business bibliographic, medical, or otherwise.

Mummy: The British Museum holds 78 Egyptian mummies and 13 South American mummies. Private collectors – ofthe sort who might seek other illicit antiquities – may have many more, from all corners of the world.

Rat-Thing: They flourish in the squalid rookeries of the East End, and lurk wherever there are houses older than 250years or so – which is a lot of places, in London. Wizards and witches have lived in London since before the Romans came;their familiars may dwell there still. Their sorceries may command hordes of rats deep below London’s streets.

Serpent-Folk: London was once an outpost of the Valusian empire of the serpent-folk; individual serpent-magi maystill dwell there, devouring human flesh to take human form, leading cults, lurking in forgotten Roman crypts beneath the

city, or pursuing centuries-long researches.Shan: Some shan-possessed may come to London to do business or investigate leads to Azathothic lore, although they’remore likely to order any needed goods or books to be delivered to Brichester. This connection, along with the Y’golonaccult (see p. 64), estimably sets up adventures in Ramsey Campbell’s “Severn Valley Mythos” setting, should the Keeper be interested in such.

Tcho-Tcho: The British Empire rules Malaya, Burma, and the Andaman Islands, to name only three places infested bythe Tcho-Tcho. They may well have drained or scuttled to the Empire’s heart, there to better inject their poison.

Vampire: Dracula’s stay in London in 1887 produced at least one vampire, on Hampstead Heath. Does he seem like aone-woman voivode to you?

Werewolves: A natural for the Isle of Dogs, or for the streets of Soho in the rain, among other places.

Tylwyth CorachaiddThe “stunted folk” are also known as

the Little People, the Children of theNight, and (in the words of von Junzt’sUnaussprechlichen Kulten) “die Würmervon der Erde,” or Worms of the Earth.They are the first humanoid inhabitantsof the British Isles, possibly the result ofinterbreeding between Neanderthals anddegenerate serpent-folk. They have blackhair and slanting black eyes, olive orsallow skin, sharp teeth, and pointed ears.Even originally, they were likely shorterand stockier than human normal; afterthe invading Picts and Celts forced themunderground, they became increasinglydwarfish and deformed, standing onlythree-and-a-half or four feet high.

Welsh valleys and mines, or deep inthe sewers and sub-tunnels of modernLondon, Dublin, or Brichester.

They worship Tsathoggua and fear Yig;their cult object is an inscribed blackstone called the Sixtystone or “Ixaxar.”They communicate by red-ocher orchalk runes from the Ixaxar written onremote dolmens in the moors or alleywalls in London.

InvestigationAnthropology: It’s well known thatthe so-called “fairies” or “little people”of Celtic legend are actually memorieof a Mongoloid pygmy race thatantedated even the Picts as inhabitantsof the British Isles. Out-competed by the taller invaders, they perforceretreated into the hills, and thenunderground, kidnapping children torestore their flagging racial stock.

Evidence Collection: Strangelyonly the victim’s coins were takenhe had £50 in notes on him as wellThere’s a clear footprint, but iprobably has nothing to do with the

case: it’s a child’s foot. Although fromthe position of the toes, it looks likethe lad hasn’t worn shoes a day in hislife.

If I didn’t know better, I’d swearthis was a Neolithic bone fish-hook – I’ve seen them in the B.M. (AndArchaeology or Anthropology)

Forensics: The victim’s Achillestendons were slashed by a sharp but strangely thick blade. Based on

their position and the blood spatterwe think he suffered the five hatchetwounds after falling prone. At leastwo, possibly three, killers.

Sense Trouble: This cellar smells likethe reptile house at the zoo.

Weapons: Not only is this hatchet toosmall to use as a weapon, the balanceon it is all wrong. Not just for an adultarm, for a human arm.

In game-mechanical terms, amegapolisomantic working has fiveelements:

• Calculate the working’s effect.

• Discover or otherwise determine(and possibly prepare) levers forthe working.

• Determine (and possibly prepare)the working’s focus point, usuallywhere the levers cross.

• Make a Stability test.

• Pay the cost of the working inStability (or Magic) points.

Calculate the effect of a working inpoints, using these examples as a guide:

The Megapolisomancy

AbilityTo use the Megapolisomancy ability, acharacter must, as a prerequisite, haveacquired Megapolisomancy potentialpoints (see p. 38). The Keeper canrestrict such potential to specificlorebooks (like those in the sidebar onp. 99) or allow characters to gainMegapolisomancy potential by othermeans as well: wandering the streets atnight for years, initiatory experiences,communion with the genius loci, etc.A very generous Keeper (or one whowants a lot of megapolisomancy)might even allot 1 Megapolisomancypotential point to a character for every4 rating points in The Knowledge (or itsequivalent in other cities) he has.

With the Megapolisomancy ability, youcan:

• Recognise places of power,vortices, dread zones, ethericwindows, ley lines, sacredarchitecture, etc. in cities

• Design and performmegapolisomantic workings

That first bit is mostly just anothercreepy and evocative way for theKeeper to feed clues to an Investigator.The second bit is the magic.

Megapolisomantic

WorkingsPrecisely how one performs amegapolisomantic working is up tothe Keeper: it might involve lengthyresearch, planting key pieces of rockor earth in strategic spots in the city,hiring tramps to chalk designs oncertain alleyways, weeks of hyper-geometric calculations, or any of theabove. It’s up to the Keeper how long aworking takes to prepare, but it should be at least one day per lever. (NPCmegapolisomancers can be assumed to

– THE HORROR AT RED HOOK

Adding non-Mythos (or not obviouslyMythos) magic to a Bookhoundscampaign provides extra colour, tacticaloptions, and occult mystifaction. To thatend, “Improvisational Magic” appears inthe Trail of Cthulhu corebook (p. 212-213) and expanded in Rough Magicks; this section outlines megapolisomancy,the magic of big cities. The presumption(in Fritz Leiber’s novel Our Lady ofDarkness, which introduced the term,and in the adventure “Whitechapel

Black-Letter” in this sourcebook) is thatmegapolisomancy is a formal if little-studied occult art. But in her campaign,the Keeper is free to make it an intuitivegift of individual madmen, an emergentproperty of “urban shamanism,” ora human debasement of the sacredarchitecture of the Nameless City.

A megapolisomantic working usesthe city as a sorcerous engine toaccomplish magical effects. Whetherthe city generates magical energies,

or merely focuses pre-existing forces(astrological, geomantic, divine,Mythos, etc.) is a metaphysical matterleft up to the Keeper. Are all citiesmegapolisomantically significant?Which cities are more powerful: Thosewith more people? Those designed byFreemasons? The oldest? Those built onElder Gods’ resting places? Only sevencities in all the world? Only London?All excellent questions; all up to theKeeper to resolve.

from a base of 2; a working with twolevers has a power of 4, a working withthree levers has a power of 8, a working

Discovering which fulcrumsprovide what level of power (perhaps by deciphering coded annotations invaluable old books), and performingthe likely dangerous or unsettlingrites to tap that power, are the stuff ofadventures.

and so forth. If it doesn’t sound coolor seem weirdly apropos, it’s not afulcrum. This research may requiregame days of walking the streets,long sessions in the Guildhall, or asimple spend of The Knowledge orMegapolisomancy.

The power of the working must equalor exceed the effect.

Each lever doubles the working’s power

• Open a locked door or distract a

• Cause a fire, small earthquake,sewer main explosion,Underground derailment,water-pipe burst, or other urbandisaster: 4 points per buildingaffected (Keeper may increasethis for major elements of theurban environment; use theHealth damage cost above forsomething intended as an attackon the inhabitants rather than thestructure)

• Call or dismiss or imprison agod or titan: 1 point per point ofthe entity’s Inertia (gods usuallyresist imprisonment with twicethe Inertia with which they resistdismissal)

Multiple targets add the same amountagain for each target: for example, tovanish from three trackers (by raisingtheir Difficulty number from 4 to 7) isa 9 point effect. The Keeper may addmore points for other complications asshe sees fit.

With the effect’s cost calculated, nowapply levers. Levers are invisible linesof influence projecting from fixed pointscalled fulcrums. No megapolisomancercan use more levers than her current

Megapolisomancy rating

For each lever, determine a specificfulcrum: a building or other locationin the city through which themegapolisomancer focuses the working.It’s up to the Keeper (for NPC magi) orthe player (for Investigatorial workings)to research or invent suitably evocativefulcrums for those levers: Hawksmooror Wren churches, sites of murder orhaunting, former temples to forgotten

Places of PowerSome places are stranger and farther than others. Sentinel Hill is worse than even other

hills in Dunwich; Walter Gilman’s Witch-House or the “Shunned House” on Benefit Streetprovide more urban examples. In a game of urban occult horror, any street, square, dock, or

building might be such a place. Its magic might come from its history, its design, local legend,arbitrary geometry, or the imagination of the Keeper. A number of associated places mightcreate some occult design in the city’s geography: a ley line, a monstrous sigil, or the cornersof an enormous Gate.

The specific rules effects of such places will vary by place and by Keeper. The effectsshould be aligned with the place’s nature or history: Summon Nightgaunt might be easieror less costly on the site of a former fane of Nodens, for example. Some places might be somagical that all spells (or sensitives) are affected: Crouch End is dedicated to Hastur, but all

Mythos-sensitive souls suffer the effects of its “dread zone.” A place of power might:

• lower the cost of related spells cast there by 1 or more points• lower the Difficulty of the Stability test for casting a related spell there by 1 point

• lower the Inertia for Summoned or Called entities

• lessen the response time for Contacted, Summoned, or Called entities

• be the only place a certain spell can be cast, or the only tangent point for a

Hyperspace Gate (lowering the cost from 16 to 4 Stability or Magic points)• refresh Magic pools or provide dedicated Magic pool points for related spells (with

or without a ritual; see Rough Magicks for such a spell)• refresh Sense Trouble pools or provide dedicated Sense Trouble pool points for ghosts

or haunts.

In addition to the above, “dread zones” or specifically malign locations might:

• increase the cost of unrelated or oppositional (or any) magic cast there by 1 or morepoints

• increase the Difficulty of any Stability test related to Shell Shock (Trail of Cthulhu, p.77)

• increase the Difficulty of all Stability tests (for spells or any other reason) in the area

• increase the Difficulty of all Psychoanalysis tests for Psychological Triage by 1 or

more points Of course, in a Purist game, all places of power are dread zones, places where

the scrim of reason wears thin and reality shows through less dimly.



Megapolisomancy

78

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

The effect is calculated: 1 pointper Health point of burning damage

inflicted by the working.

Since Vera has Megapolisomancy 3,she can use up to three levers. Themore levers, the more powerful theeffect, so she looks for three fulcrumpoints to use to focus her “BurningMan” working.

She wants to harness fire energy, so shelooks for spots with fiery significance.For her first fulcrum, she picks StBride’s Church off Fleet Street (SB on

the example map above), dedicated toa Christianised form of the Celtic firegoddess Br igid. To balance this femaleenergy, she next selects BillingsgateMarket (BG on the map), originallyBelinus’ Gate, built by the god-giantBelinus, an avatar of the fire god Bel.

The third fulcrum is obvious: inLondon, a fire working needs a reallygood reason not to use the Monument(M on the map) as a fulcrum: it

able to tap those places’ energies forsome or all of this cost; conversely, this

cost may be higher for more powerfullevers.

Especially if the victim is an Investigator,she may get a chance to resist a directattack on her Health or Stability. Thisis most likely a Sense Trouble test, orpossibly Athletics (to dodge bricksfrom a suddenly crumbling chimney)or Stability (to remain focused whenthe neon begins telling those horriblelies about you). The Difficulty numberof this test is 4, +1 for each lever past

the second. A successful resistancehalves the damage of the working.

Burning Man: A Sample

WorkingThe cruel megapolisomancer Veraplans the seemingly spontaneoushuman combustion of her rival,Douglas. Her working operates asfollows:

The working takes effect at apoint determined by its levers: the

megapolisomancer draws a line fromeach fulcrum to a vertex, which becomes the focus of the working. (If all the fulcrums line up, make anequilateral triangle, or otherwiselook cool on the map, this also mightincrease the working’s power from 2to 3 per lever or more.) The Keepermay require the megapolisomancerto place a sigil or other trigger at thatvertex, whether chalked on a wall,worn on a signboard, or slipped intothe victim’s pocket when she starts her

day, to release the working’s energieswhen the victim sees it.

With the working calculated, the castermust cast the spell. As with Mythosmagic, the caster makes a Stabilitytest with a Difficulty of 5 (Difficulty 4with Architecture or The Knowledge)and then pays the cost: 2 Stability(or Magic) pool points per lever usedin the working.

8 points of Health damage. As notedabove, this may require a previousFilch or other test to plant a fire-rune

in Douglas’ coat pocket, or a test ofStealth to paint such a rune as graffition a placard inside the station.

If Douglas is an Investigator, he likelygets a Sense Trouble test to notice therune (in his pocket or on the placard)and the strange sense that boilingsteam is filling his blood vessels. TheDifficulty of this test is 5 (base 4, plus1 for each lever past the second); ifDouglas succeeds, he loses only 4points of Health before successfullydefacing the rune or running out ofLiverpool Street Station with his skinsmoldering inside his clothing.

Paramental EntitiesManifesting a paramental entity (seep. 104) is a special kind of working.Use the table below to determinethe might of the paramental based onthe caster’s leverage. For more than4 levers, extrapolate from the values

given.

Abilities: Divide these points between the paramental’s Athletics (todetermine its Hit Threshold), Health,and Scuffling. Keepers may add otherabilities if they desire: Shadowing fora coursing paramental like a gargoyle,

marks the point where the LondonFire stopped. Vera thinks of it as the“control” fulcrum balancing Bel and

Brigid.

With these three levers, the workinghas a power of 8 (two times twotimes two), unless the Keeper decidesthe Monument (or one of the otherfulcrums) amplifies the workingfurther.

Vera draws the three lever lines fromher three fulcrums to a vertex. Thiscould be almost anywhere in London, but she selects Liverpool StreetStation as the focus of the working.She posits that the vibrations of thetrain tracks will set up sympatheticvibrations in her target’s molecules,and that the immense amountsof electricity and steam pumpingthrough the railroad station willproperly energise the focus. (Unlessthe Keeper adds a point or two forsuch cleverness, this is just flavor.)

To cast the working, Vera must

now make a Stability test againsta Difficulty of 4 (she has TheKnowledge). She succeeds, and pays6 Magic pool points (2 per lever).

Now, when Douglas walks intoLiverpool Street Station, the workingstrikes him, burning from within for

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

A Purist game in an ArabesqueLondon takes its notes not just fromAbdul Alhazred and The Nameless City , but from Lovecraft’s London talesHypnos, Celephaïs, and The Hound, whose protagonists suffer madness,suicide, and persecution at the handsof things Lovecraft doesn’t particularlyexplain. Perception fails, and imposingrationality is impossible. A Pulp gamein an Arabesque London goes back toStevenson and Machen, or forward toThe Avengers and Grant Morrison.

Possible Arabesque Threads: Atontine of suicidal astronomersworships Azathoth; the Brotherhood ofthe Black Pharaoh have built a race ofanimal-headed servitors; “Cat’s Alley” behind Gresham Street leads to Ulthar;masqut haunt the British Museum’s

Oriental wing; ghouls guard tunnelsfrom London’s cemeteries to the faneof Mordiggian in far-future Zothique; in1622, a wizard made himself immortal by painting his soul into a cameo nowin the Soane museum; the god Nodensmanifests himself in rains of trilobites;Nyarlathotep rides the NecropolisRailway every St. John’s Eve; the Tcho-Tcho and the tylwyth corachaidd arerumbling over turf in Rotherhithe;Cold Ones are killing descendants of anArctic expedition from the Elizabethan

era.

SordidLondon, as Watson says at the beginning of Study in Scarlet, is “that great cesspool, into which the idlers andloungers of Empire irresistibly drain.”Worse things wait there to prey onthem, and on the impoverished Irish,Polish, Jewish, or Indian workerscome to the “Great Wen” as their

StylesThere are more ways to tell a story,even a Cthulhoid horror story, than the“Purist” and “Pulp” styles mentionedin the corebook. Or rather, thosetwo signifiers don’t signify enough.Even Lovecraft told his tales in avariety of different voices: not justPoesque mania, Dunsanian languor,or Machen-like bravura, but drivingaction (Lurking Fear ), scientific irony( At the Mountains of Madness), Forteanmystifaction (Whisperer in Darkness), andimpressionistic empathy (Haunter of theDark). The following campaign styles – three of the many possible – canall incorporate Purism or Pulp; eachoffers a familiar vision to the Londonhorrorist. Each style encompasses anumber of plot threads suitable for

expansion by the inspired Keeper.

ArabesqueLin Carter memorably describedRobert Louis Stevenson’s Londonas “Baghdad on the Thames.” In anArabesque London, anything mighthappen around any corner. Any or allof Elliott O’Donnell’s mad imaginarycults might exist (p. 61) and be tiedin to any or no Mythos machinations.Investigators have touched the strange,

the unusual, the uncanny: they do notquite exist in the same quotidian citywhere the faceless masses on the busesand the Underground dwell. Strangeconspiracies claim unutterable lineagesand vanish with the sunrise; sentientdreams and plausible strangers shakethe Investigators’ hands and lives.Arabesque London has mighty templesinside shabby warehouses, undergroundcivilizations, hypnotic detectives, andimmortal hidden races.

The Keeper should go through the stepslisted under Campaign Frames on p.204-205 of the Trail of Cthulhu corebook.She may or may not make the samedecisions as the “default” Bookhoundscampaign frame on p. 209-213 of thecorebook; they are merely suggestions,not requirements. Similarly, the Keepermay introduce “Idiosyncratic Magic” (p.212-213 of the corebook; expandeddiscussion appears in Rough Magicks aswell), “Megapolisomancy” (p. 76),or any other sort of magic she prefers,

or restrain herself to Mythos rites only.Similarly, the suggestions and examples below serve merely as options theKeeper can draw from, and inspirationsto get her own creativity running.

Before you dismiss the possibilities oPurist Technicolour, remember the“vampiristic attacks” in Charles DexteWard and the emerald phosphorescenceof the shoggoths in Mountains of MadnessHyperrealism is a realism all its own, aLovecraft displays in Dreams in theWitchHouse, From Beyond , and, yes, The ColouOut of Space. Cosmic despair doesn’have to be filmed through a sepia filteror painted in gray wash. But that saidPulp and Technicolour go togetherlike Christopher Lee and Ingrid PittA Pulp game in a Technicolour Londoncan draw not only on The Horror in theMuseum and The Horror of Dracula, buon Sax Rohmer’s Fu Manchu potboilerand Dennis Wheatley’s Satan-smashingpage-turners.

TechnicolourThere is another London, garish and

glorious. This is the Technicolour worldof Hammer Films, in vibrant colour – and the colour is always bright redor lurid green. Cults wear rich robes;monsters radiate unearthly glows;scarlet blood smears jaws and talonsand lips and other parts. A villain’smotives may be low lechery or exaltedhubris, but his plots grow and coil inlush cruelty. Technicolour London hasmore than the eye can encompass:overstuffed bookcases, opulent drawingrooms, rat-infested labyrinthine attics,

dripping tunnels of slime-coated stone.Pentacles – and manacles – are lined insilver or some shining metal; ironwork

only alternative to starvation. Thealternative London offers is notalways better. The Sordid London is

the London of prostitution, drugs,poverty, desperation, extortion, andcruelty. Gross villains whore childrento grosser clients; old women die byinches in the gutter while those whostep on them curse the inconvenience;self-congratulatory cliques of the“best people” justify their neglectwith cant about inevitability. Thesevile cruelties may spring from humanminds, or be symptomatic of Mythosdecay … or both. Which is worse?Contact with an outside force thatleaves human misery in its wake like aswelling bruise, or scrabbling to savehuman scum from alien gods?

A Purist game in a Sordid Londoncontrasts and amplifies cosmicdespair with real human despair;Ramsey Campbell’s Mythos fiction,featuring pornographers, derangedstreet folk, and child-abusers, canserve as its touchstone. Borrowfrom degenerate Dunwich and

disintegrating Innsmouth to describean East End choking on its own filthwith no jobs and no hope. A Pulpgame in a Sordid London can aspireto noir or wallow in moral GrandGuignol; Alan Moore’s From Hell isparadigmatic, as is Oscar Wilde’sDorian Gray. Despairing greed driveseveryone, both villains and victims,to lie, corrupt, and steal. In SordidLondon, petty criminals sell theirsisters for human sacrifice, gangs offeral children bray incoherent rhymes

in desolate commons under the stars,and the bobby on the beat takessouvenirs from murder scenes.



Dramatis Personae

82

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

Finding yourself in need of a narrativetwist, you may occasionally findreason to switch your conception

of a character in midstream. Asinister character you have assumedwas Tainted might surprise you byturning out to be innocuous. Anuninvolved type might find himselfcorrupted by madness (perhapsintroduced by a Bookhound, or by a book sold by a Bookhound) to walkHastur’s path.

Also included are additional namesand physical descriptions, so you canreuse the basic template the nexttime you need a character of thattype. None of the descriptions arekeyed to the names, or vice versa;use them in any order. As you usethese names and descriptions up,you may wish to replace them, sothat you always have a fresh versionof the character type to hand whenthe story goes in an unexpecteddirection and improvisation is amust. Use only one of the givenquirks per character unless they

take on a “guest starring” role in thestory; then, use as many as you needto define them in the p layers’ minds.

A character’s Bibliophily indicateswhat books they seek, either legallyor not; one per character is probablyenough, except for rival book-seekers. Bookhounds will usuallyhave heard of an NPC’s Bibliophilywith a Bibliography spend, orcan find out from him with anappropriate Interpersonal spend.

Each character also includes gamestatistics. Credit Rating is providedfor auctions (possible line of creditis in parentheses; p. 25); Generalabilities appear in case of possibleconfrontations. (The Magic abilityis described in Rough Magicks.)General abilities that allow thesupporting character to perceive orhide from PCs are omitted in favourof Alertness and Stealth modifiers

have suppliers of books and beasts.Keep track of every interesting NPCon the dramatis personae list (see

p. 154) and be ready to throw them back into play on cue.

Sample Non-Player

CharactersAs a kick-starter for your ownrotating cast, this section containssix configurable, reusable profilesfor supporting characters the Keepercan introduce – or the Bookhoundsseek out – during a Bookhoundscampaign. These NPCs fall withintwo broad categories: Rivals (p.83) and Collectors (p. 86).

Each character write-up includesmodular elements you can mix andmatch as required. Descriptionsappear tailored to the styles above,with one addition: Tainted. ATainted character is one that hascome into contact, wittingly orunwittingly, with the Cthulhu

Mythos. In the Bookhounds’ London,even un-Tainted characters mightstill be criminals or worse – or,rarely, might actually offer aid forsufficient consideration. The horr ificuniverse of H. P. Lovecraft beingwhat it is, such NPCs often reappearin the storyline — or pieces of themmight, at any rate. If a Bookhoundmeets such a fate instead, perhapsthe player can adopt a previouslymet innocuous NPC as their newcharacter.

Needless to say, any of the factsgiven about the characters should be start ing points, not straitjackets.When an idea doesn’t serve yourstory needs, change it to somethingthat does. Borrow elements fromone description and mash them upwith another, or split one NPC intotwo (or three) if need be to fit yourstory’s needs and your campaign’sspecific style.

Just howlow they will sink in their rivalry is up to the Keeper, but they should always be just a little worse than the Bookhounds.Also up to the Keeper: the degree of Mythos knowledge (or Mythos taint) of anyone at Hathaway & Co.

Hathaway & Co. Fine Books: Located in Fleet Street (XI, 14L), with a steady clientele among London’s sensational journalists and jobbing writers, including some script writers for film and BBC Radio. Its film customers bring money andSoho bohemians, both welcome additions. The store is stocked full to the ceiling, with true rarities in a glass case up frontor in the safe in back. Specialties include the occult (the more lurid the better), British history, mediaevalia, and art books, but almost anything could be somewhere. (Bookshop Credit Rating 4, or one better than the Bookhounds’.)

Evelyn Hathaway, bookseller: Mid-40s, but looks 10 years younger thanks to an unlined face, smooth pale hair,pink complexion, and student-style spectacles. Dresses in slightly affected suits and coloured shirts. Son of the founderof the shop (now retired to Brighton), brought up in the trade, University educated (King’s), knows everyone in books inLondon. Freemason.

Game Statistics: Auction 3,Credit Rating 4 (equal to or one higher than highest Bookhound)

Herbert “Pockets” Mathews, book scout: Late 40s, lean and tubercular, with a beaky nose, watery eyes, andstrange scarring on his throat and temple. Wears a shapeless tweed coat with at least five pockets in it, sometimes containingmerchandise “I was just goin’ to pay for.” Spent six months in Wormwood Scrubs for possession of burglar’s tools. Vast fundof lore on alchemical books (and horse-racing odds) in his head, along with the standard intellectual jackdaw’s nest of all book scouts.

Game Statistics: Auction 4, Fleeing 9, Stealth Rating +2 (applied to Bookhounds’ Conceal to find something on hisperson, to their Shadowing to follow him anywhere in London, and to their Sense Trouble to detect him filching somethingor breaking into the back of their shop)

Aston Drummell, catalogue agent: Late 30s, athletic build, dresses well, hawk profile, dark hair pomaded backfrom a widow’s peak. Smokes Silk Cuts, drinks whisky, drives a Rover, keeps a flat in Chelsea. Sent down from King’s forunspecified reasons; keeps up with old University set at clubs. Gambles at whist and vignt-et-un.

Compeyson Kane, fence: Late 30s, quite fat, black curly hair, middle-class dresser, purses his lips when thinking orupset. Not officially part of the Hathaway & Co. family, but important to them nonetheless; he’s their connexion to London’scriminal underworld. Although Hathaway or Drummell can usually find buyers for books of uncertain provenance, Kanecan get rid of stamp collections, coins, or weird family heirlooms often picked up in the same way.

And most of all, at least one phase ofevery Bookhounds scenario shouldinvolve a book. Not every scenarioneeds to begin with a missing (ordiscovered) Mythos tome, or at alibrary or book auction. But someonein the adventure should be motivated by bibliomania, or the clue to thecreatures’ lair should be found in an olddiary, or the villain should be an author

Here’s a “standard” Trail of Cthulhuscenario spine, somewhat expandedfrom the version on p. 192 of the Traiof Cthulhu corebook. For each elementwe present some suggested ways towork in the printed word. Remembernot every element needs to involve atome – but there should be a book ortwo somewhere in every adventure.

The Hook: The event, problemor opportunity that attracts theInvestigators.

A mysterious stranger asks theBookhounds to locate a rare book.

A horric tome turns up in an estatesale; the previous owner died undervery eerie circumstances.

A valuable patron of theBookhounds’ bookshop suddenlychanges her collecting pattern, andbecomes quite secretive about herreasons.

The Curtain: The Investigators checkout the hook based on their initiasuspicions. The investigation yields acore clue (and possibly various redherrings) but no confirmation of theirsuspicions. The investigated individualpresent a credible front of innocence.

The Bookhounds confront theirsuspect at a house sale, where shebuys only irrelevant or innocuousbooks.

ScenariosIn general, scenarios for a Bookhounds

campaign are no different fromtraditional Trail of Cthulhu scenarios:they are occult mysteries that reveal (aglimpse of) the secret Mythos behindthe world. Their spine, or structure,is essentially the same, with the same basic elements usually present: hook,trail of clues, horrible revelation, andantagonist reactions.

The differences come from the book-trade backdrop of the campaign,from the atmospherics and style ofthe Keeper’s specific London, andfrom the Bookhounds themselves:staunch New England scholars anddetectives have different options andtactics than skeevy East End occultistsand forgers. At every step of thescenario (both during initial designand during play), the Keeper should be alive to the possibilities of thosedifferences. Present NPCs who reflectthe Bookhounds’ world back at them:petty criminals, obsessed bibliophiles,

inbred lords, sweaty Satanists. Be readyto run with player plans for burglary,forgery, smuggling, arson, or blackmail – consequences and payback shouldcome from the Bookhounds’ rivals, orfrom criminal gangs, even more thanfrom Scotland Yard or decent society.

Throw elements of the style into eachscene, as description or as a clue. If thestyle is Sordid, the clues should involvedegradation or suffering, the scenesshould play out in trash-strewn lots

and dripping mews, and the weathershould always be grey and close. If thestyle is Technicolour, there should berich crimson curtains over the leaded-glass windows in the library, pentaclespainted on the walls of the warehouse,and glistening blood (or glowing ichor)on the wallpaper. Arabesque stylegames might involve more foreignersas NPCs, more variety in Londonarchitecture, and plenty of strange orinexplicable events: phantom aircraft,

The Final Reveal: The Investigatorslearn what’s really going on – and it’sworse than they imagined.

The antagonist’s actions fulll a prophecy in the Necronomicon.

The evidence for the Final Revealcomes from three or four separatebooks, assembled, acquired, ordiscovered during the scenario.

Studying a map of London pointsto the villain’s next and nalatrocity, which puts her previousactivities into perspective.

The Setup: The Investigators carryout a necessary action before theconfrontation can occur. This elementdoesn’t always occur; when it does,it’s usually driven by player ingenuityrather than Keeper pre-planning.

The Bookhounds must steal,borrow, or nd a book crucial tothe ritual, or crucial to disruptingit.

The Bookhounds must booby-trapthe villain’s book, or switch it witha useless (or dangerous) forgery.

The Bookhounds must bribe oneof the antagonist’s allies to switchsides; the ally is a book collector(of course).

The Confrontation:The Investigatorsclash decisively with the forces of evil,hopefully winning at least a tactical

victory that restores a semblance oforder in the near term. (Purist games’mileage may vary.)

The Bookhounds have altered thevillain’s book so that his ritualdestroys him rather than the Earth.

The Bookhounds read a counter-ritual from one of their bookswhile stalemating the antagonist’smonstrous allies.

The antagonist lures one or moreBookhounds into an ambush, perhaps by offering a valuable

book for sale.

The antagonist plants a dust-thing (p. 69 ) on one of theBookhounds, or in the Bookhounds’shop.

The Twist: The First Reveal inturn leads to an upending of theInvestigators’ assumptions, and a lossof their mental equilibrium.

An 18th-century diary mentions

the villain, describing him precisely.

Someone the Bookhounds havecleared of suspicion shows anunexpected interest in Mythostomes at an auction.

Their prime suspect turns up slainhorribly, with pages torn out of thebook he was reading.

The Relief: The Investigators gainunexpected aid or information,putting them back on the path tovictory. This may be as a result of theirinvestigation (a reluctant witnesscomes forward) or as a result of the blowback. (“It seemed like thosethings were coming from DeptfordPark.”) This is an optional floatingelement, which can be inserted asneeded into the action.

A collector whose life the

Bookhounds saved in an earlierattack gives them access to a rareclue tome.

An old client has informationconnected to the mystery.

A recurring NPC shows up to provide an enigmatic hint,referencing a book the Bookhoundsown or one they must track down.

and which ones lead to benefits orinformation about ongoing challenges.

Next, make up the antagonist. Ifyou’re stumped, run through thecults and monsters in this sourcebook(or the corebook) and pick one thatsounds cool to you, or that matchesthe bibliographic element, as thisscenario’s villain. You can also use anNPC from your campaign’s “dramatispersonae” list (see p. 154) as thevillain, or build one from one (ormore) of the NPCs in this book (not just the ones on p. 82-89 but anyonefrom “Whitechapel Black-Letter” onp. 94). Alternatively, use one of theplot threads in the Styles section, above(see p. 80), or something from theCthulhu Mythos section of the relevantneighbourhood. As noted previously,add a book or two, if you don’t alreadyhave one somewhere. By now, you havethe makings of a scenario spine, andyou should be able to reverse-engineera trail of clues from hook to horror.

Using ContactsGiven the plot hook, the players shoulddecide what kind of contact mightprovide initial answers or assistance.The Bookhounds choose a contactfrom any number of sources: theirpre-existing contacts and connections(Trail of Cthulhu, p. 31), neighbourhoodcontacts (p. 41), or other NPCs fromtheir copy of the dramatis personaelist. Keeping in mind the kind of helpthey need, the players decide whichof their possible contacts is likely to

provide it. They should think creatively – rationalizing the approach is half thefun – and the Keeper should encouragesuch improvisation: it invests theplayers in the campaign, and spreads the burden and the joy of setting creationto the whole gaming group. In thatlight, either the player or the Keepercan name the contact (if not yet named)and provide any sort of interesting orcolourful details about them. TheKeeper should veto any detail too likely

Player-Driven

AdventuresIf you don’t have an adventure plannedto go right that evening, or if anongoing scenario demands some “downtime” for verisimilitude’s sake (waitingon the special ink from Belgium, or forthe full moon), have the players pick aplot hook they find interesting to chasedown. The players may show up to thegame between adventures eager to sniffout another rumour – our advice is toaccede with delight and alacrity. Afterall, they’ve already hooked themselves!You just have to reel them in, weavingthe line as you do so. Don’t worrythat the players will revolt at yourimprovisations: adventures that playerspick – especially those hooked intotheir character’s past experiences orspecific interests – start out with a deepdeposit of good will and player buy-in.If you can provide thrills and scares, thespecifics of the story will almost takecare of themselves.

Plot HooksAdventures often throw up otherpossibilities outside their spine:investigative roads not taken, rich targetsfor sales pitches or housebreaking, thesuspicious auction house that wasn’tconnected to this particular cult. Asthe campaign continues, the playersshould write down these various leads,possibilities, and sources on a “tipsheet.” Between this increasing backlogof loose ends, and the various rumours

floating around London (see p. 44),the players ought to rapidly accumulatequite an evocative catalogue of scenariohooks.

Once the players have picked a plothook, the Keeper then improvisesresponses to their actions. Decidewhich items represent real Mythosthreats, which ones turn up mereoccult or human horrors, which can be quickly established as red herrings,

The Campaign MapGive serious thought to

creating a campaign map foryour London. Print out a mapof London and start markingit up with weird locations,Mythos “dread zones,” leylines, and anything else thatshows up. (A suitable base mapcan be found on the Pelgranewebsite.) If you aren’t fortunateenough to live in London, just having the map handy –pinned up on a cork board,

or downloaded to a graphicstablet – will help orient youradventures and put you intoa proper sense of place. Justreading the street names mayremind you of other Londonfictions you want to evoke inthe game, as player or Keeper.Plot escapes and ambushes;mark off blocks where you’rereasonably sure the huntinghorrors aren’t. Colour in theghoul warrens and let an “X”

mark the hyperdimensionalGate to Lomar.If you’ve added

megapolisomancy (p. 76)or any other sort of location- based magic or story elementto the game, both players andKeeper will find having theirown map incredibly useful.Indeed, as your campaignmap gets ever more lined andannotated, you may find a sortof location magic emerging

even if you didn’t intend it to.London is like that.

First Reveal. Don’t worry overmuchabout cleverness, or even plausibility inan Arabesque style game. Just use eachclue to point the players into the nextscene, seeking answers to the questionit raises. Follow the spine pattern on p89, moving from Curtain to Wakeupto First Reveal and so forth, as fast asyou can manage it. Skipping the Curtainand the Twist makes a full-on “bug huntchase scenario; adding Blowback givesyou time to come up with a suitablyscary or strange Final Reveal.

Keep the players moving forwardeagerly chasing down the hint thatthey selected: story motion is its ownreward. When in doubt, have two men(or Things) with wavy daggers burstthrough the window, as RaymondChandler would have said if he wrotefor Weird Tales instead of Black Mask. Ithe game’s tone supports it, just lethe players drive the victory conditiontoo: if their plan sounds cool, it works

… though perhaps not without one lastgruesome surprise.

“If you were to ask me, I’d say it’smost reminiscent of the Mohockoutrages of Queen Anne’s day. Dear

Queen Anne, so misunderstood.”

Once the players have uncoveredthat scene’s clue, it should raise anew question. Answering that nextquestion may be as simple as headinginto another scene in another location,or it may require some more research(in libraries, in the bookshop, or onthe ground), or it may take anotherlittle assist from another contact. If theplayers feel like they need another boostin the right direction to move ahead tothe next event, or if they act like it byaimless pondering and wandering, handthem the dramatis personae sheet or thelist of contacts for the neighbourhoodthey find themselves in and let them bring another contact on stage.

Putting it Together,

TogetherConstructing a player-driven adventure

is still a work of collaboration; asKeeper, you can improvise, react, oreven intervene if need be to drop aclue for a future scenario or lay pipetoward the big finish. The Keepershould usually include a memorableNPC (if the contact isn’t alreadymemorable, or if her only role is topoint the Bookhounds toward the realaction), or a potential conflict, or bothin each scene. You can get any neededNPCs from the same places you got thevillain: your dramatis personae list, the

NPC section of this book, or from anadventure. The NPC in any given scenemight be a secondary antagonist, aninformation source, or even an ally – but make her someone the players caninteract with interestingly.

You don’t have to wait for the playersto recruit a contact: if they seem to be flailing around aimlessly, toss in amonster or a cultist attack, or have acontact drop dead at their feet clutching

to derail the story: no former big-gamehunters who just happen to have theirelephant gun handy, no simpering

suitors to hand over an emerald thesize of a plover’s egg. A really fun orinteresting contact might migrate ontothe dramatis personae list and becomea recurring NPC, with all the dangersinherent in such a position.

Locating a contact may be as simple asa telegram or a stop in at the local, orit may require some fast talk or a dodgydetour through a grimy alley. If theKeeper wants to tie the contact moredirectly into the plotline, it may requireconfronting a monster or a maniac:the contact might need to be rescued, bailed out, or bandaged before they canhelp the Bookhounds along.

In general, contacts move the plotforward without solving any trulymajor problem (or taking any real risk)for the Bookhounds. Remember, in aGUMSHOE scenario, ideally each scenecontains a clue (or a batch of clues) tomove the adventure forward; each

clue is surrounded by an exciting orintriguing scene. Each contact providesa nugget of information, an assist, or ahard shove to solve the scene’s obstacleand get that scene’s clue.

Simply calling on a contact doesn’tnecessarily set the Bookhounds onthe right path, although it can if theKeeper is in a hurry or the players looktruly piteous. More likely, the contactprovides a direction to search for theneeded information:

“I nk I saw ‘im go into that theresewer gratin’.”

“You move along or I’ll run you in for loitering, just like I did that foreign cove last night.”

“Ain’t ‘eard nufng like ‘at since Ileft the Necropolis Railway ten yearback. And ‘at sound is why I left it.”



This scenario can take place at any timein the Thirties. It makes for a “throw‘em in the deep end” introduction toa Bookhounds campaign. It introducesrivals, seedy occultists, a bibliophilic

club, and an ongoing feature ofhorrific London that can all generatesequels if the Keeper wishes. It’sas crowded as the best Pulp, butfundamentally grimy and bleakdespite featuring warring gods. Intone, it borrows from Sordid and Technicolour Londons, but is onlya few more exotic foreigners awayfrom becoming Arabesque.

Keepers should feel free to use orre-use any of the NPCs, monsters,

and so forth in this scenario as theysee fit. Keepers should also read theadventure carefully and thoroughly before running it; it’s detailed anddense enough to spark sequels fromthe various loose ends and investigativethreads within. In short, it’s intendedto provide a number of roads into the Bookhounds of London setting first, andto provide an introduction to Trail ofCthulhu (a distant) second.

The SpineThe Uncongenial Mr. Dives hires theBookhounds to acquire a rare grimoire.

In their investigations, they meet anynumber of Rivals for the Prize, bothprofessional and sorcerous. One suchrival likely leads them to the seller,Ambrose Bowers, although they maytrigger a Deathtrap in Wapping at hisold house. They may also discover thattheir client is a Ripper-obsessed would- be magus by investigating the Officesof Horace & Moore on Mitre Street.Eventually, the Bookhounds discoverthat the book they seek was owned by Jack the Ripper himself; they may look

into The Fiend’s Identity or buckledown and survive until An Auction inWhitechapel ends it all. And perhapsEnds it All.

At its most basic, this adventure hasonly three core scenes: Dives hires theBookhounds; they find out about theauction (usually after meeting Bowers);they attend the auction. Everythingelse is a branching (albeit scenic andinformative) path.

The Horrible TruthThe Ripper’s murders outline theEye of Byatis, a horrific entity pinned beneath – and perhaps somehowembodying – London. The Ripper,however, was playing at a dangerousgame: his murders were a ritualdedicated to Byatis’ rival entity,Nodens. The Ripper aimed at defining

the Eye and closing the Eye part ofthe way, allowing him to harnessthe now-concentrated remainder ofByatis’ magical force. As so manyMythos rituals do, it worked, thoughnot entirely as its architect envisioned:the mystical backlash leached out theRipper’s drive and personality, andeventually his very existence. TheBlack-letter contains the Ripper’scalculations, allowing the Bookhounds – or whoever winds up with the tome

No Nodens Need ApplyThere are players and Keepers who bear a grudge against Nodens, as

a perhaps understandable reaction to his casting as a “good” Elder God byAugust Derleth and Brian Lumley, among others. This is slightly unfair toDerleth and company, as they were following Lovecraft’s lead in Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. It’s more unfair to Nodens, who Arthur Machenequated with the horrific Pan in The Great God Pan, and whose appearance inLovecraft’s own The Strange High House in the Mist is still quite ambivalent. Thisadventure follows this harsher Nodens, especially Machen’s predatory forceof madness carelessly reshaping humanity. It also follows the etymologicalevidence of Nodens’ role as one of London’s tutelary deities, as noted on p.44. It also works better dramatically, setting the human struggle over the book against a shadowy war of the titans in London’s primordial past.

That said, you don’t need to mention or involve Nodens at all. Justassume that the rituals in the Black-letter come from Pnakotic wisdom or

the like, and that any ill effects come only from Byatis-energy backlash.On a kindred note: If you don’t want to introduce megapolisomancyinto your campaign, leave out Thibaut de Castries and his book entirely.Instead, Louis de Castries uses conventional Mythos magick: Summon/Bind Nightgaunt (or Hound-Lich; the mechanics are the same in this case,except the hound-lich’s amulet replaces the Elder Sign), Howl of Pan (stillperhaps using traffic noise or power line hum), and Runic Target ( RoughMagicks, p. 20; this becomes the spell he inadvertently cast on Bowers’mother, summoning a Hound-Lich or Nightgaunt). He knows enough aboutLondon’s Mythos past that he can refresh his Magic pool (or Stability poolfor magickal purposes) entirely at Ludgate or on the Isle of Dogs, and refreshhalf of it in the shadow of Christchurch Spitalfields.

Bookhounds with Greed as a Drivewant to find out about their rivals,either to get a sense of what the marketwill bear for the book, or to see if theycan get a better deal than Dives offers.

Eventually, Curiosity or one of thoseleads takes them to the seller, a mannamed Ambrose Bowers, who can be made to reveal the book’s darkconnection to Whitechapel.

The Pimander ClubBehind tasteful white pilasters and respectable Victorian gray stone, the

Pimander Club has a reading room, a smoking room, and a library, primarilydistinguishable by the number and softness of the chairs (and members)planted in each room. Its dining room (in the tradition of the best Londonclubs) is hardly distinguishable at all, but it keeps an excellent cellar. Theupstairs chambers are for senior members, guests from reciprocal clubsoverseas, and the committee only. It takes all major periodicals, and its occultlibrary (members and guests only) is quite respectable: it provides 1 bonuspool point for Occult, and (thanks to its many rarities and auction catalogues)1 dedicated Bibliography pool point for works on the occult.

The Keeper can use the Club in other adventures going forward as shesees fit. She can:

• Dangle membership in the Club (and association with its plenitude ofwealthy occult-minded weirdos) as a carrot in front of suitable Bookhounds,

or use it as a reward for some truly remarkable feat of secret heroism.• Make it an ongoing story hook; even if the Bookhounds can never

qualify for membership (not in those clothes, anyway), satisfied members canrecommend the Bookhounds’ tome-tracking or monster-quashing services toothers. Any wealthy eccentric might be a member, or the friend of a member.A dead member might name the Bookhounds as their library executorsto handle the estate sale … and make them deal with creepy page-sniffingscavengers from the other end of the gavel this time around.

• Nestle a secret Mythos cult into the club’s membership: perhaps the clubcommittee are allYog-Sothoth worshipers, or members of the Brotherhood ofthe Yellow Sign. Or perhaps the club’s servants and staff are the actual occultpowerhouses, using the members as nothing but a stream of money and thick-headed meat-shields.

Caedis Urbi Verae Claves, by Johannes Turris (1530; Latin)This book’s “true keys” are lengthy explorations and explanations of fifty geometric, astrological, and other symbols

for manipulating the energies of a city. Turris claimed that all human cities reflect prehuman, parahuman, or demonicfoundations, from either the past or future. The text mentions not only Atlantis, Rome, and Nineveh but (among others)Commoriom, Sarnath, Olathoë, and the invisible city at the magnetic poles.

(Or Zhar-Lloigor, or Cthugha and Shub-Niggurath, or whatever the Keeper desires.)

Megapolisomancy, or A New Science of Cities, by Thibaut de Castries (1900; English)De Castries claims that cities, especially modern cities, serve as accumulations of death-energies, immense steel-

and-electric versions of the Pyramids of Egypt and other ancient hermetic constructs. His “new science” encompassespredicting new construction, causing earthquakes, awakening the “paramental” entities that haunt cities, and a wide panoplyof divinations and curses using sacred geometry and map-reading. The book was privately published in San Francisco fromproofs set up in Europe; before his death in 1929, de Castries rounded up most of the extant copies and burned them.

Skimming the book provides 1 dedicated Investigative pool point for any occult investigation into, or involving, a city:2 points if the reader also has access to Caedis Urbi Verae Claves. Poring over it provides 2 Megapolisomancy potential points;3 if the reader has already read Caedis Urbi Verae Claves.

• Shop signs coincidentally align: “MosBY House” “sATISfied customers”• A gin-soaked tramp, passing the Bookhounds, mutters under his breath

“Toads took ‘im, past the stone door. Be at ‘is throat in no time. Snakes for beards.” Ifconfronted, he claims to have no idea what they’re talking about.

• Eyes watering from a sudden acrid stench, a Bookhound sees the signfor Batty Street (one block east of Berner Street) as “Byatis Street.” When he blinks his eye clear, it’s back to normal.

• It seems like more than the average number of tramps and loungershave eye-patches, or great wens under one eye, or spectacles with one lens blackened.

• After entering the Eye for the first time, the Bookhound with the highestCthulhu Mythos rating (or the one with the lowest Sanity) has a nightmareabout being chased by an immense one-eyed toad in the forest.

• Arguing that the various mythssplinter and distort over time,Dives further identifies Lludd

with the Irish Lugh, the killer (by beheading) of the giant Balor, whohad one enormous, death-dealingEye.

• For example, Nedwin Readthawe’sFolkloric Survivals of the Severn Valley(Brichester, 1910) connects thedemon Byatis (a one-eyed demonsealed up “behind a stone door” bythe Romans) not only with Balorand Bran, but with the legend ofthe Berkeley Toad, a one-eyedmonster that haunts the woodsin the region. (Skimming this book provides 1 dedicated poolpoint in History, Occult, orOral History for investigationsin the Severn Valley; it can beskimmed multiple times during anadventure.

• Dives believes the symbol is not just a doorway but an Eye.

• London – Kaer Lud, or LudDun – is the city of the Welsh godLludd, alias Nudd, also the IrishNuada. (Archaeology knows thatNudd/Nuada was called Nodens inRoman times; Occult knows thathe is identified with the Abyss, andwith Great Pan.)

• Ludgate is thus a place of power

for the god Lludd; other generallysolar-aspected places in Londonlikewise.

• Their opposite, dark- or moon-aspected places, Dives believes, areplaces of power for Bran, the giantwhose severed head once lay buried beneath Tower Hill. “Bran” meansraven, his city is Lon Din, the“fortress of the blackbird.”

and divine power.

The same symbol appears on the largeOrdnance Survey map of Whitechapelpinned to the west wall, although themap itself is so covered by pinned-up calculations, newspaper clippings,and weather reports that it takes a1-point Evidence Collection spendto notice. Once discovered, though,it’s a doozy: the symbol traced on themap connects four sites in Whitechapel(Hanbury Street, Berner Street, Buck’sRow, Dorset Street) and one in the City(Mitre Square). Use of Law or TheKnowledge identifies these as five of Jack the Ripper’s murder sites – andnotes that this office overlooks MitreSquare out its east windows.

Along the south wall, a long chemicaltable holds a compact laboratory: burners, alembics, and such.The cabinets on the table containinnumerable sample jars and bottles,

labeled in Dives’ fussy handwriting.From all across Whitechapel, Diveshas apparently gathered earth fromevery churchyard, water from everysewer main, and (if the labels are to be believed) illuminating gas fromthe lamps that once burned in theneighbourhood.

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

With Cremers or O’Donnell,Reassurance is needed to get theirstory (“How awful it must have been for you,” or “Of course I won’t print anythinguntil you do”); with Crowley, Flattery is always best.

The Crowley VersionIn the Thirties, Crowley is flabbyand shifty, raddled with age (he turns60 in 1935) and vicious living. Theworld-beating egomania of his youth

has curdled into publicity hounding,innuendo, and pettiness. He knows“Dunstan” as “Captain Donston,” and“Mabel” as the Theosophist novelistand anti-vivisectionist Mabel Collins.(Collins died in 1927.) Apart fromconfirming Bowers’ tale, he canadd only that Collins, Donston, andCremers were in the perfume businesstogether, and (he leers) otherwiseentangled. (In a Sordid campaign setin 1937 or afterward, Ellen Bowers was

Russian, which became still less valuableafter 1917) in southwest suburbanBalham. Journalist Bookhounds canask around and find out that crimereporter Bernard O’Donnell of theEmpire News has been interviewing herand compiling her memoirs over thelast few years. Without a journalist inthe party, the Keeper may have to builda secondary connection to O’Donnell,possibly through O’Donnell’s ownhabit of searching bookshops forinformation on Jack the Ripper and

black magic. As a final possible link, a1-point Occult spend (or no spendfor Occultist Bookhounds) remembersthat Aleister Crowley supposedlyowned the neckties from Bowers’tale, and willingly elaborates on theirhistory for the price of a drink or a fix;this can be the Keeper’s opportunity tointroduce Aleister Crowley as a walk-on NPC and likely create the mother ofall red herrings.

The RipperAlthough not strictly necessary, theBookhounds may well want to traceBowers’ story. Bureaucracy obtainsBowers’ mother’s name (Ellen), andsome officious questioning of heracquaintances and neighbours byCredit Rating 3 or 4 Bookhounds(using Intimidation, Cop Talk, orinvestigative Disguise pretending to be tax officials or the like) can follow

the chain of her previous employers back to 1926, when Ellen Bowersleft the service of Baroness VittoriaCremers, former business manager toAleister Crowley and assistant editor ofthe Theosophist magazine Lucifer : a “lidyof mystical bent” indeed.

If the campaign is set before 1937,Vittoria Cremers is still alive, andliving in shabby genteel retirement(her morganatic “Baroness” title was

Finding Bowers AgainSome playtest groups became understandably obsessed with finding Bowers again. In the scenario as written, he

vanishes into the warren of Whitechapel until the auction: he may not even be entirely in our London, consumed as heis with the black-letter, and caught as he is in the undertow of the Eye. He’s not foolish enough to return to the house inWapping, and tracing him to a specific bedsit after tossing the first place is essentially impossible.

Some Keepers might enjoy having Bowers pop up just outside the Bookhounds’ grasp: an urchin or a beggar reportsthat “‘e were jest ‘ere ‘alf a minnit ago”; the Bookhounds hear his croaking wheeze across a crowded tavern; one Bookhoundsees his face, pale and sweating, in a crowd at the racetrack or across the Underground rails.

Even so, players willing to obsess about something usually get their way. If they grab Bowers and force him to facethem, he just clams up against anything short of torture. If they offer him a fortune, he agrees and sets up a meet in thethird-floor room above the Black Lion to hand the book over, but double-crosses them. When they arrive, they find theirrivals already there: Bowers just starts the auction (see p. 112) early, with Drummell representing Fletcher.

So Where Is the Book?It’s hidden. Nobody knows where it is except Bowers. This drove some playtesters berserk, but the book’s disappearance

is not merely completely realistic (try finding one book in a single city block, much less a neighbourhood the size ofWhitechapel), its reappearance is the dramatic climax of the scenario.

If, by some amazing miracle, unforeseen magical ritual, or moment of un-Keeperish pity, the Bookhounds manageto find the Caedis Urbi squirreled away in a squatter’s garret, or under the mildewed shirts in the Widow Klimek’s room(“such a nice boy ”), or in a Gladstone bag under the bar of the Ten Bells, or left in a locker at Liverpool Street Station,or anywhere else, the adventure becomes a deadly serious chase. Paramentals, Nagaäe, Magwitch’s thugs, heretoforeunsuspected Byatis cultists, and anyone else with a working “early warning system” for Mythos energies comes down onthe Bookhounds with both feet. Perhaps the chase drives them into Mitre Street, where they can surprise Dives goinginto his murder shrine, either setting up a big free-for-all combat, or letting the players know that Dives is dangerouslyunhinged. What comes next? I have no idea, but it probably involves revenge.

as a military surgeon with Garibaldiin Italy. (Here, of course, he metRaymond de Castries, from whom he

stole the Caedis Urbi.) He abruptly leftItaly in 1863 (a-ha!) for West Africa,and later India, to study magic. In between trips, he settled in London,living all over the city. He spent thefall of 1888 in London Hospital in theheart of Whitechapel, suffering from“neurasthenia.” In December of 1888,D’Onston wrote a letter to W.T. Steadof the Pall Mall Gazette, signed “OneWho Thinks He Knows,” explaining theRipper killings as part of a necromanticritual and noting the cross formed bythe victims’ death sites. Mabel Collinsread that article, met D’Onston, andfell under his spell. During this period,D’Onston wrote numerous articleson magic (including the art of gainingmagical power by ritual murder) forthe Gazette, for Stead’s occult journalBorderlands, and for Lucifer . Stead, likeCollins, believed D’Onston was theRipper. (Many of D’Onston’s articles,including that first letter, are onlineat www.casebook.org/dissertations/

collected-donston.html, for Keeperswho want a really neat handout orfour.) After the Cremers-Collins-D’Onston ménage broke up, D’Onstonvanished from their lives. O’Donnellhas not been able to find any notice ofhis death, although he would be in his90s now.

A Bloody BiddingIt’s not just Drummell, Dives, and

Bowers the Bookhounds have to dealwith. Dangerous devotees of hiddengods also covet the True Keys to theCity of Death, and have followedrumors of its resurfacing to London.

Any of these three rivals could (andlikely will) harass or attack Drummell,potentially creating a constantly shiftingfield of alliances for the Bookhounds,and triggering any Adventure Drivesin the party. If the Keeper wants to

Crowley says that Donston was definitelya magus of some accomplishment;his sorcerous name was Tautriadelta.(“Cross and three triangles;” the Eyesymbol has a cross and two triangles … but a 1-point spend of Occult andLaw recalls that three of the victimson the cross’s points had their wombsslashed or removed.) If asked about theRipper murders, Crowley theorisesthat the Ripper might well have beenan initiate, and notes that all the killingstook place when either Mercury orSaturn were on the horizon; “refractedby Whitechapel, you might say .” (Witha 1-point Archaeology spend, itseems eerily inevitable that Lugh should be identified with the Roman Mercury,and Saturn the all-devouring giant withLugh’s foe Bres, the “seven-year king”of the Fomori.) It’s up to the Keeperwhether Crowley has any Cthulhu

Mythos knowledge, or if he simplydrops the names “Nodens” and “Byatis”as part of his “master of mystifaction”routine.

Either or both confirmBowers’ tale, the identity of “Mabel,”and the existence of the perfume business with the man Cremers knewas “Roslyn D’Onston.” Either or bothcan provide the following data aboutD’Onston.

a 1-point spend, another connectioncomes to mind: her half-brother-in-lawis the controversial scholar JoachimFeery, the late Baron’s illegitimateson, who defends his notoriously loosetranslations and excerpts (Notes onthe Necronomicon (1901, abridged ed.1907), Notes on Prinn’s Mysteries (1914),Notes on the Cthaät Aquadingen (1923),and Notes on the Book of Dzyan (1930)) by claiming he “dreamed the correctversion.” If the campaign is set after

anything that looks like a 16th-century black-letter folio), the monster stealsit, carving up anyone who resists.Should the Bookhounds manage to killthe beast, she summons two Nagaäe …

Any catalogue agent, bookseller, oroccultist worth his salt hardly needsBibliography or Occult to identifyBirgit von Kant. She married Hermannvon Kant, the son of the “mad witch-hunter of Westphalia,” Baron Ernst von

away herself gracefully to get morefrom these rivals. After a bit of cut-and-thrust repartee, she gives her name andadmits to an interest in the Caedis Urbi. She claims to be working in the interestof the Archbishop of Munich – thelegitimate owner of the book looted

from the Braunau church library in1805 – if the Bookhounds care to assistHis Grace, she is sure their reward willnot only be in heaven. When AssessHonesty catches that series of lies,von Kant is worldly enough not to insistupon it.

If the Bookhounds seem dangerousafter this meeting (or before it), Birgitsummons one of the Nagaäe from asewer under London and sets it to

NagaäeThese grotesque toad-like horrors are extrusions, or servitors, or parasites, of the buried god Cyaëgha. Some scholars

have also associated them with Nyogtha, Byatis, and Zhar: perhaps those entities are all aspects of Cyaëgha, or perhaps Nagaäehave multiple etiologies. Whichever being they serve, the Nagaäe resemble horrible insectile toads, shoving themselves alongon their grotesque translucent bellies, their four forelegs raised mantis-like in parodic supplication. Their faces are wet andill-formed, congeries of eyes (usually around a large central orb) burbling up from the sticky flesh, above a wide liplessmouth.

Nagaäe hate other life besides themselves, actively glorying in cruelty. Or so it appears to the people they carve up withtheir sickle-shaped claws, bite with their horrid cartilaginous gums, or lash with their corrupting double tongues.

Nagaäe can claw two targets twice per round, a total of four attacks; lick two targets for two attacks; lick one target onceand claw another twice; or bite one target.

Venomous Bite: Immediately after being bitten, the victim must make a Difficulty 4 Health test. If she succeeds, shesuffers half the damage of a successful lick (see below). If she fails, the bite does 7 Health points of damage immediately and1 per minute until healed; whether unconsciousness, paralysis, or death results from the wound is up to the monster or itscontroller. Regardless, the victim is hurt until treated.

Disorienting Lick: The saliva of the Nagaäe deranges humans touched by it, draining 7 Stability pool points from avictim who fails a Difficulty 4 Health test. At the Keeper’s discretion, the licked one may suffer paranoia, disabling hungerpangs, uncontrollable desire, or any other base urge. (Tying the effect to the Bookhound’s Drive might be interesting.)Regardless, the victim is shaken until treated.

TRAIL OF CTHULHU

Jack’s Shadow: An Optional MonsterWhile this adventure takes place partially in Whitechapel, and invokes the spirit of Jack the Ripper, it is (by design) mostly free

of Jack himself. Partially this is to allow the Keeper plausible deniability: there’s no absolute proof in this adventure that D’Onstonwas actually the Ripper, so you’re free to posit a different Jack and run a more Ripperish adventure – or a whole campaign – lateron. Maybe the Eye of Byatis doesn’t actually track the 1888 killings, and D’Onston conflated his own rituals with the murders ina case of Mythos-induced delusion.

Or perhaps you like fingering D’Onston, but you think no Ripper adventure is complete without a menacing top-hattedfigure in the fog slicing people up with a scalpel. So this completely optional complication can show up at any time after theBookhounds have twigged to the true history of the Caedis Urbi Verae Claves.

Abilities: Athletics 8, Health 12 (only in Whitechapel or the Eye; 4 otherwise), Megapolisomancy 4, Scuffling 8, Weapons 21Magic: If the Ripper is D’Onston, he has Magic 12 (only in Whitechapel or the Eye; 4 otherwise). He knows all the

megapolisomantic rites that de Castries does, Shrivelling, and Contact Nodens. He can create a 4-point version of HyperspaceGate leading into his pocket nightmare-dimension, where it is always fall of 1888. His Magic pool completely refreshes everyhour (or every scene, whichever is shorter) while he is in the Eye.

Hit Threshold: 4 Alertness Modifier: +2Stealth Modifier: +2 (+3 in shadows, fog, or night) Weapon: +0 (enchanted knife); ignores armorArmor: while immaterial, immune to all weapons except his own knife; depending on the Keeper’s preferences, may be

vulnerable to electricity, attack magic, or dogs. Stability Loss: +0 (+1 for female witnesses)Materialization: D’Onston may spend 3 Health (or Magic) points to become material or immaterial, instead of attacking.Possession: D’Onston can possess the living. If a victim is asleep anywhere in Whitechapel or inside the Eye, and D’Onston

can win a single contest of Health (or Magic) vs. the target’s Stability, he can enter her dreams and occupy her body until sunup,she leaves Whitechapel, or until she is awakened with smelling salts and First Aid. Against a waking victim, he must make eyecontact and win the Stability contest once and again every three rounds. Either sort of possession costs him 2 Health (or Magic)points.

Communion With Nodens: D’Onston can also draw a victim into communion with dread Nodens by spending 3 Health(or Magic) points. He must make dream or eye contact as above and win a single contest of Health (or Magic) vs. Stability; if heis successful, the victim immediately loses 3 Stability points, and must pass a 4-point Stability test as they perceive the Abyss. (+1Sanity point loss if she loses Sanity from this Mythos shock.) The victim cannot do anything except commune with Nodens thatround, and must go last every round until the end of the scene. Until the end of the adventure, the victim may not gain Stabilitypoints from her Drive, or spend points from any Interpersonal pool. If the victim has no Cthulhu Mythos or Magic rating,however, she adds one rating point to those abilities.

Blood Refresh: For every point of Health he drains with his knife, D’Onston can refresh 1 ability point of any sort uponthe victim’s death.

D’Onston’s humanity is completely gone, replaced entirely by Nodens’ afterthoughts and psychic residue. Memories and fearsustain him in a kind of timeless shadow existence, a living ghost haunting his own past. But when something major, or magical,or both, happens on his old hunting grounds, D’Onston rematerialises. Depending on how tangled the Keeper wants this sidetrail to get, D’Onston might:

Begin his return by, what else, killing prostitutes. During the eight days of the adventure, he should be able to kill one or two on nights theBookhounds are out in Whitechapel acting suspiciously obsessed with the Ripper. (If he kills more, he might close the Eye for good, which doesn’twork dramatically.)

Attack Birgit von Kant. Killing a sorceress is probably even bigger mojo than killing a harlot, without the danger of closing the Eye. Nodensalso wants her hunted, as a Byatis cultist (actual or potential). Depending on the Bookhounds’ alliances at the time, they may rescue her, leave her

to die graphically, or be discovered standing over her body covered in her blood.Haunt Johnstone Dives or Paul Fletcher. Both are trying to retrace D’Onston’s magical steps, which is the kind of thing that leads to hauntings.

At least.Possess Johnstone Dives or Paul Fletcher. This can be a straightforward attempt by D’Onston to regain mortal form, or something that Dives or

Fletcher actively invite to commune with Nodens. While in their form, he might attack streetwalkers or Birgit, or carry out some other weird plan.Try very hard to regain his book, in the hopes that it contains a spell or ritual to rescue some fraction of himself from Nodens. If he recovers it,

it’s (perhaps unsatisfyingly) gone for good; whether he gets what he wants out of it is up to the Keeper’s sense of drama. At the very least, it mightempower him to return for a sequel.

The Keeper can also use these statistics for the ghost or tulpa of some other Jack the Ripper in some other adventure, ofcourse.

They also know thatthe way to survive an encounter withMagwitch is to back down politelywith a 1-point Streetwise spend beating up his boys only earns anambush in a dark alley, and heavy boots in the soft bits.

It’s most likely that Drummelcalls in Magwitch (via his contactKane, p. 83) to level the playingfield, but Magwitch might have hisown contacts in the Whitechapeunderworld who let him know there’a book on the loose that millionaireswant. Magwitch may double-cross

Enter the KeymasterOnce the Bookhounds start seeingor hearing the name “de Castries”

in their research, Louis de Castriesappears in their ambit. During hisresearches into D’Onston’s career,O’Donnell contacted de Castriesabout the Garibaldi episode,unwittingly giving de Castries theclue he needed to start tracing hisfamily’s missing black-letter. A fr iendof de Castries in the Pimander Clubwarned him that Johnstone Diveswas also searching for it; de Castriesis aware that Dives has hired agents,and has kept an eye out for theBookhounds since arriving in Londona week ago. He tried to catch Bowerswith the paramental trap mailed toWapping, but missed both Bowersand the book. If the Bookhoundstriggered it afterward, de Castrieshas their magical scent.

He immediately begins workingmegapolisomantic magics to drivethem off (see p. 76), but will notreject a request for a meeting out of

hand, should the Bookhounds trackhim down. How to track de Castries?They can get a description of “theone-armed Frog” from the MilwallPost Office with Cop Talk orBargain and keep an eye out; they(at a slightly higher Credit Rating)can methodically use Reassurance on the better hotels to find where“my good friend Monsieur de Castriesis staying”; they can stake out sure-thing sites like the vertices of theEye or Christchurch Spitalfields

(Difficulty 6 Shadowing to see himwithout being seen at Christchurch;Difficulty 3 at a murder site);they can ask O’Donnell to find deCastries for them (with Flattery athis investigative skills, or use a squiz – he collects lurid broadsheets andother crime literature) or anythingelse reasonable-sounding.

TheKeeper should use her judgment; doesthe scenario need more competition,or an ally? Drummell might be either,depending on how previous interactionshave gone; his professional courtesyencompasses fellow book-hunters, andhe truly dislikes Bowers, von Kant, deCastries, and Dives. On the other hand,

Fletcher may demand further measures,likely the unleashing of more mobsters.

(This doesn’tindicate special knowledge of the Eyeor the occult; Magwitch is merely,if justifiably, suspicious.)

or Document Analysis instantly marksit as a genuine 16th-century black-letterfolio, bound in black morocco with adeep, fresh scratch on the cover. Turningthe pages also reveals that it is thoroughlyannotated in English handwriting, and atleast one sketch map of London has beentipped into it. This probably will not hurtthe resale value.

The Auction BeginsIn a quavery voice, racked by coughs andswallows, Bowers lays down the rules.“This is a fair auction, syme as any toff jointon Bond Street. Pay cash, or sign yer cheques inblood. The Eye will witness what you done, andI’ll get me dosh on the square. ‘Oo’s got the rstbid, then?”

Run this as a single-lot dramatic auction(see p. 25). Bowers has no rating inAuction. The Bookhounds’ representativecan add the remaining pool points fromtheir Bookshop Credit Rating.

Assuming the Bookhounds are stillworking for Dives, they can add 1 pointto their auction Credit Rating pool fromDives for each of the following criteriathat they meet:

• warned Dives about de Castries.

• warned Dives about von Kant.

• were not detected shadowing Divesaround London or breaking intoHorace & Moore, whether they did

so or not.

• have generally not acted like a packof lower-caste idiots

To The AuctionTreat the five days (which can compress

to four or expand to nine; ocean linersaren’t always on schedule) between theBookhounds’ hiring and the arrival ofFletcher like a soup, adding ingredientsand turning up the heat to keep everythingconstantly on the boil. Between deCastries, von Kant, Magwitch, andperhaps Drummell, someone shouldalways be stalking, hassling, cursing, orunleashing monsters on the Bookhounds.Always call for action; if no player hassomething ready right away, relentlesslyshove the clock forward: “That night, as you’re coming back from the shop, a hideousshape looms up in your path …” The playersshould never be able to catch their balance; their characters should feel verymuch fagged out and spread thin by thetime Bowers surfaces again.

On the evening of day six, a loaferpromised a shilling drops off a messageat the Bookhounds’ bookshop: “17 BlackLionYard, 3rd Fl. Bring Cash or Sign InBloud .” With a 1-point spend of The

De Castries, Fletcher, Drummell,von Kant, and Magwitch (and Dives, ifthe Bookhounds have double-crossedhim) or the survivors among them trickle

in over the next half-hour; some may have beaten the Bookhounds to one of the fiverickety chairs.

Rewards and DangersIf, against all temptation and much goodsense, the Bookhounds have played

straight with Dives and turned Caedis UrbVerae Claves over to him, he pays them agenerous commission and spreads wordof his satisfaction to his fellow membersof the Pimander Club. This counts as awindfall for the Bookhounds’ Bookshop

If they simply couldn’t get the book forDives, but made a good faith effort (orconvinced him they did), he accepttheir failure with ill-grace but no actuaenmity. If the Keeper wishes, otherPimander clubmen may still considerthe Bookhounds worthy specialists in thefuture. This is a neutral outcome fortheir Bookshop.

If they have stolen or destroyed his booklooted his Mitre Street laboratory, orotherwise betrayed Dives, he will blackentheir reputation with his fellows and havehis solicitors press them for damages. Thicounts as a reverse for their Bookshop.

If they stole Dives’ variant 1510 Euclid

and can sell it on the Continent or inAmerica (it’s too “hot” to sell in Britain)that windfall will counter the abovereverse, for a net neutral outcome. Sowill the windfall from de Castries or vonKant, if the Bookhounds sell the grimoireto either of them.

What Dives, or de Castries, or von Kantor whoever, does with the black-letter ithey wind up with it – or hatches as a newplan to obtain it – is up to the Keeper todecide. It probably won’t be nice, which

means it might well be a good adventurefor later in the campaign.

If the Eye of Byatis is not closed, noBookhound can refresh Sanity lossefrom this adventure.

The Final Chapter

What the Book HoldsIn addition to the details in the box onp. 99, and anything else the Keeperwishes to plant, the black-letterdiscusses the Eye of Byatis.

To close the Eye, the magus must killseven harlots on its planes and angles(the center, the rim, anywhere alongthe cross) and burn certain of theirorgans as candles, “as a Hand of Glory putsthe House-Holder to Sleep.” The Ripperwas closing the Eye, not opening it!Occult questions remain: What’s thecurrent count? If Martha Tabram orAlice Mackenzie was a Ripper victim, itmight be as high as six. (The Eye isn’tclosed, so they couldn’t both be.) If onlythe harvested organs count, it could beas low as three. (Law recalls that Stridewasn’t mutilated at all, and none ofPolly Nichols’ organs were missing –unless her post-mortem didn’t give allthe facts.)

To open the Eye, the magus mustsmother, drown, or poison seven virgins(“kill without spilling Blood ”) likewise. A1-point Law spend recalls the caseof Miriam Angel, drowned in poison at17 Batty Street (Byatis-Street?) on theEye’s border in 1887. Is there anotherByatis-worshipper around? What’s hiscount at by now?

But a partly-closed or partly-open Eyegenerates fell energies that the maguscan access: 1 Magic pool point per

month on the second day of the moon’slast quarter. (Or a “free” dedicatedStability pool point for magicpurposes only, if you’re not using theMagic ability.) This power is open to anysorcerer who kills one harlot or virginon the Eye – including the Bookhounds.

The effects of a fully-open Eye are leftto the Keeper to imagine, but they’reprobably very unpleasant indeed.

Von Kant, Auction 3, Credit Ratingpool 9: If she loses, she sets up quartersin London, researching at the British

Museum and generally being a pebble inthe Bookhounds’ shoe. She may even hirethe Bookhounds for her own purposes,using copies of Feery’s pamphlets (orother rarities she winkles out) as bait orpayment. She will try very hard to at leaststudy the Caedis Urbi (with or withoutpermission) and she spends a lot of timein Whitechapel on shadowy errands. Ifthe Keeper decides she’s working withthe Ahnenerbe, they may have theirown plans for Bowers and other auctionattendees, win or lose.

InterruptionsRun the auction based on your sense ofwhat the players want from the scenario.If they want blood and monsters, theNagaäe or a nightgaunt smashes throughthe skylight or a paramental forms in theroom; if they want a tense interpersonalscene, the auction runs as normal. Amiddle course? Someone in the room(likely Magwitch, but possibly Dives,

Fletcher, or de Castries) pulls a weaponand triggers a Mexican standoff overa grimoire that probably reacts …interestingly … to spilled blood.

If you like, and have introduced “Jack’sghost,” he possesses one of the bidders, orBowers. Using Assess Honesty revealsa changing “tell” on the possessed; if youcan do the accent, the victim’s voicechanges to a North Country burr. (APrivate Investigator, Book Scout, or anyplausible Bookhound notices this; barring

something else determinative, use theone with the highest Languages.) WhenD’Onston is revealed, or reveals himself,he puts out the light (either magicallyor by being nearest to the lamp), stabsthe nearest victim, and tries to steal thegrimoire in the confusion and ensuingmayhem.

All combat in this close, ill-lit, crowdedroom is at point-blank range.

A decade later and across the Atlantic,Lovecraft correspondent Fritz Leiber invented urban fantastic horror withSmoke Ghost, and perfected it in Our Ladyof Darkness, another foundational textof the genre and of this sourcebook.Although Anubis Gates (by Tim Powers)and Homunculus (by James Blaylock)are grievously out of period, theypowerfully evoke an Arabesque horror-London, as does Brian Stableford inthe increasingly transcendent Gnostictrilogy he began with Werewolves ofLondon. But even more than from Leiber,this sourcebook unfolds from ChapterFour of From Hell by Alan Moore,in which Dr. Gull (soon to become

Howard is a delightfulMythos riff on Fu Manchu (whoseexploits also clearly inspired AugustDerleth’s Trail of Cthulhu story-cycle,down to a major Cthulhu cult based inLimehouse), and a model of Arabesque-Technicolour Mythos adventure.Ramsey Campbell, meanwhile, holdsdown the Sordid end of the spectrumall by himself. Cold Print is his great taleof bibliographic horror, but The FranklynParagraphs runs it a close second. TheOvernight, for all it involves a haunted bookstore, is not actually about books.Most of his Mythos tales occur in thewest of Britain, in Liverpool or the

Severn Valley, but transplanting their bleak vision of decaying city life toThirties London should pose fewchallenges.

Other Urban HorroristsAlthough Robert Louis Stevensonis rightly famed for his London-setchiller The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll andMr. Hyde, he pioneered the “Baghdadon the Thames” Arabesque style ofLondon weird adventure in The New

Arabian Nights. Arthur Machen tookStevenson’s format – interlinked talesof strange encounters on the streetsof London – back into British lore anddeep into horror with his Three Impostors story cycle. Other Machen storiesfeaturing a horrific London include TheRed Hand and The Great God Pan, whichcalls London the “city of nightmares.”By the Thirties, Dennis Wheatley had turned the Arabesque London ofStevenson and Machen thoroughly

As always, begin with H.P. Lovecraft.

His London stories are not his best, but Hypnos, The Hound , and the luridThe Horror in the Museum (ghost-written for Hazel Heald) repayreading for their common themesof persecution and paranoia, whichlikewise drive Lovecraft’s New Yorktale The Horror at Red Hook. His otherurban horrors, He and Cool Air, are alsoNew York tales, but clearly hearken back to the “Baghdad on the Thames”subgenre of London fiction. Finally,The Case of Charles Dexter Ward (which

mentions London only briefly, alas) isa masterpiece of weaving horror intoa city’s history, and The Haunter of theDark and The Shunned House provideinteresting models of Lovecraft’sarchitectural horror, both featuringreal structures in Providence, RhodeIsland.

Novels focused on a single rare bookor author are slightly more commonstandouts include the almost

supernatural Possession by A.S. Byattthe collegial The Rule of Four by IanCaldwell and Dustin Thomasonthe thrilleriffic The Book of Air andShadows by Michael Gruber, and thecheerful haunting of The End of Mr. Y byScarlett Thomas.

In the allied trades, hunt up Cadillac Jack by Larry McMurtry and the Lovejoycrime novels by Jonathan GashTheir protagonists are antiques dealerrather than antiquarian booksellers, butheir adventures remain inspirational.

On non-fictional Bookhoundingconsult the works of NicholasBasbanes, who has made chronicling bibliomania into a fine niche market A Pound of Paper by John Baxtercombines book scouting memoir and biblioholic confession. It’s an easier (iflighter) read than Taste and Technique inBook-Collecting by John Carter. For bibliographic true crime, pore over Th

Island of Lost Maps by Miles Harveyor The Man Who Loved Books Too Much byAllison Hoover Bartlett. Finally, inGrimoires, Owen Davies has writtenthe first satisfactory history of sorceroutomes; it nicely complements the workof Daniel Harms and John WisdomGonce on The Necronomicon Files.

as my German would allow. Masks ofNyarlathotep by Larry di Tillio and Horror on the Orient Express by Geoff

Gillan, et al. also offer plenty ofLondon-based Mythos gaming.

BookhoundsThe thriller The Club Dumas byArturo Perez-Reverte is the secretparent of this sourcebook, includingthe Catalogue Agent occupation.Roman Polanski’s film of the novel,The Ninth Gate, adds inspired visualswhile subtracting a major subplot.The “unreal book” novels of CarlosRuiz Zafon – The Angel’s Game andShadow of the Wind – seem to indicatethere’s something in the air in Spanish bookstores. In English-language bibliographic horror, only House ofLeaves by Mark Z. Danielewski comes close.

Elsewhere in the “bibliomystery”subgenre, the clear winner is Booked toDie by John Dunning, which packsa load of book-trade info into the

mystery of a murdered book scout.Also noteworthy, The Burglar Who Likedto Quote Kipling and The Burglar in theLibrary are the two Lawrence Block mysteries featuring burglar-turned- bookseller Bernie Rhodenbarr to alsoprominently feature the (stolen) booktrade.

as does the Hellblazer comic series;the baroque Bryant & May mysteries by Christopher Fowler reach for

Arabesque weirdness in London’shistory and geography.

The Aquarian Guide to Legendary London,edited by John Matthews and ChescaPotter, does just what it says on the tinin cheery light-side New Age manner,while London Under London by RichardTrench and Ellis Hillman digs up thedirt on sewers, hidden rivers, and theUnderground. Peter Underwood discusses Haunted London with similarfocus, and Martin Fido provides aMurder Guide to London. For London’ssacred geography, start with The New Jerusalem by Adrian Gilbert. Finally,even if you can’t find a Baedeker’s orCook’s travel guide to London fromthe Thirties, a modern day LonelyPlanet London or the like will still proveremarkably useful and inspirational.

In RPGs, I should acknowledgethe thorough work of LucyaSzachnowski and Gary O’Connell,

whose London Guidebook for Call ofCthulhu is remarkably comprehensive.Also for that RPG, Pete Tamlyn compiled the sourcebook Green andPleasant Land , which I also consultedusefully; I got as much use out of London:Im Nebel der Themse (developed by JanChristoph Steines for Pegasus Press)
