About this Game:
Blackwater Creek: The investigators are called to look into the disappearance Dr Henry Roads and his wife, Abigail of the Miskatonic University. The Roads were leading an expedition near Blackwater Creek, but they mysteriously ended the expedition early and sent their student workers home while staying on to finish up. They have since stopped all communication, and their concerned colleagues sent you to find out what happened.

This Call of Cthulhu scenario is set in the backwoods of the Miskatonic Valley in Massachusetts in the early 1920s. Themes include corruption, mutation, bootlegging, and Eldritch Horrors.

Content Warnings include: violence, physical corruption of humans and animals, blood, guts, gore & bodily fluids, nudity, insects & vermin.

Notes from the GM:
Investigators from the previous open play games can be used, and I have pregens if people want. Original investigators must be made using the core rule books or the links provided, and sent to me by the Sunday before the game to be double checked. Character backgrounds need to be related to the Miskatonic University and the Society of Exploring the Unexplained (a social club for people who fancy themselves as paranormal investigators). New characters should also have no experience dealing with the Mythos. They may believe in ghosts or other spirits, but have no firsthand experience with actual paranormal entities.
If you have any questions, please message Garult on the Salem TTRPG Discord or post in the Call of Cthulhu channel by Monday before the game.
