Included here are the following categories: Outer Gods, Elder Gods, Great Old Ones, Great Ones, Avatars, Servitor Races, Independent Races, Fabulous Creatures, and Unique Entities. These monstrous creations have been collected from fiction spanning over seventy years and from over ten years of favorite Call of Cthulhu scenarios. The darkly imaginative work of a diverse group of authors is represented here. Where possible each entry begins with a quote describing the monster or entity. Where much about the creature is known, there may be an additional description. If discussing a god, Great One, or Great Old One, notice of any human cult comes next. Further notes discuss habit, habitat, or attack. An essential aid for players, investigators, and keepers. "They walk unseen and foul in lonely places where the Words have been spoken and the Rites howled through their Seasons. The wind gibbers with Their voices and the earth mutters with Their consciousness. They bend the forest and crush the city, yet may not the forest or city behold the hand that smites." —HP Lovecraft CALL OF CTHULHU is a roleplaying game based on the novels and short stories of H. P. Lovecraft, the founder of modern horror. In this game, ordinary people are confronted by the terrifying beings and forces of the Cthulhu Mythos. Players portray investigators of things unknown and unspeakable, working to save humankind and the world from a dismal future. Chaosium publishes many supplements and accessories for CALL OF CTHULHU.
