The Hanged God waits
Invited to a celebratory event at a historic coastal town near Edinburgh, investigators soon find themselves racing against time to save Jenny Sinclair, a local girl who appears to have been kidnapped.
A network of clues point to an uninhabited island and hint at an inhuman ritual that has potential to bring forth chaos, death and destruction. And are the tales of 'shadow creatures' beneath the waves true, or fanciful stories spun by sailors over the centuries?
The Burry Man is a classic-era scenario for Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition, suitable for 3-5 investigators and designed to be completed in two or three sessions of play.
In it you will find:
- an unsettling and dangerous investigation where investigators find themselves constantly one step behind
- Keeper notes that help those seeking to run the scenario get the best out of it
- 22 full-colour handouts
- a varied cast of unique characters who the investigators may meet
- several atmospheric locations, most based on real-life locations steeped in the myths and legends of Scottish folklore
- 2 detailed maps of South Queensferry and the Isle of May
- a new monster, the desperate and dangerous drowned dead
- a new spell and artefact for investigators to discover
- full statistics for all non-player characters and creatures
- separate handouts-only file included in purchase
CONTENT WARNING: The scenario contains themes of child abduction, persecution and acts of violence, and is recommended for mature players.
The Burry Man is the third scenario in The Edinburgh Files, a multu-scenario campaign set in Edinburgh in 1923 and 2023. Part 4 - Tourst Trap - is coming soon!
