Description

Call of Cthulhu: Regency Cthulhu: Dark Designs in JaneAusten's England

Regency England: a time of social niceties, of grand balls, and of romanticintrigues and disappointments, as described most adroitly in the novels of MissJane Austen. But the Regency is also a time of lurid Gothic romances, and of warand social upheaval, as the Industrial Revolution gets into full swing and thehostilities with Napoleonic France draw to a close. Against this backdrop, theMythos insinuates itself into the very fabric of society, always watchful forthe opportunity to instill fear and terror into the hearts of everydayGeorgians, from the richest to the poorest.

Regency Cthulhu: Darkness and Decorum in Jane Austen’s England is ahistorical sourcebook for the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game. Set in the earlyRegency period (circa 1813), it describes the fictional town of Tarryford inWiltshire, England, as well as presenting two scenarios designed to introduceplayers to both the time period and the town’s mysteries.

Together they uncover the dark secrets at theheart of Tarryford; horrors that have lain dormant for many a year but now seekto burst forth into England’s green and pleasant land.
