Well, Chaosium still markets the Graduate Kit...you can get it through mail order,
or most gaming/hobby shops could get it for you.  I think they also sell some of
the components, like the decal, separately....

By the way, the school motto is:
  "Ex ignorantia ad sapientiam;
   e luce ad tenebras."
I have adopted this as my personal motto, as it fairly well describes my view of
the world....

Loosely translated (to the best of my abilities), it means something like:
  "(From/out of) ignorance (into/to/towards) knowledge;
   (From/out of) (the) light (into/to/towards) darkness."

Get it?

In my opinion 'The White People' is perhaps the greatest short
horror story written in the last 100 years. Certainly this is a 
must read. Absolutely chilling.

The other stories in 'The House of Souls' are also worthwhile (this 
volume also includes 'The Great God Pan') 'The Three Impostors' 
contains some excellent stories. 

I actually enjoy most of Machen's work, weird fiction or not.

If you are looking for Machen, there are a number of relatively 
current reprints. For an overview of his weird fiction check out 
'Tales of Horror and the Supernatural' which is a trade paperback from 
Pinnacle Books (I've also seen it as a two volume mass market 
paperback set).

Could someone please post a description (in CoC RPG terms) of a Mythos book?
I have to decide on the contents of a copy of the Bridewell Nameless Cults,
and I wouldn't mind having an example of one to work from. (It doesn't have
to be Cults. Any tome will do).

Specifically, I'm looking for Spells contained and how they are described to
the players ("For lo, the incantation did conjyr a fabulous wynged byst with
hoary claws and spines like ancient stone spires that did chill the blood" -
that kind of thing). I know what to do from reading all of the material I could

Yup. You were, most likely, looking for some renegade environmentalist,
or some such, who used to work for Dawn Biozeme. It's "At Your Door,"
Chaosium's first book-length Cthulhu Now adventure. Me, I liked the
bodybuilder episode, and all the anagrams of Nyarlathotep that they
sprinkled through the book.

And that tasty Tcho Tcho brain paste! Yum!

"AYD" also introduced Chaosium's new "representative," the ever-helpful
Mr. Shiny, to a horrified world. If I remember correctly, my spies at
GenCon said that Shiny won the Vice-President nomination from the Elder
Party...

	Actually, I have set up a small database that tells about many of
the Mythos (and some Occult) Books in Published Scenarios.  It's sketchy,
but it does include a list of the spells to be found in each book, and which
published Chaosium Book it comes from.  Is anyone interested in this?

Yep, picked up my copy a few months ago, though I can't remember which site. 
For those of you who don't know, Hypercard is a MacIntosh application that 
works upon the idea of screens being made up of sets of cards that can be
flipped through. Each card can have text, graphics, sounds and anything else
that you might be able to use in a standard application (yes, animation too).

	Cthulhu-card contains pictures of several of the Mythos monsters (about
30 as I recall) and descriptions. There is also a sound associated with each
creature, ranging from the sounds of the creatures themselves, to the reactions
of the investigators upon sighting the creatures.

	If you have a Mac and Hypercard 2.0 then GET IT!

   What's so hideous about any of the books? Obviously, any passage that is
so mind-boggling its readers go utterly insane is very difficult to transmit,
even for Lovecraft, but from the Dreamlands stories (_The Dream-Quest of
Unknown Kadath_ and "The Other Gods" spring to mind) it seems the Pnakotic
Manuscript is _the_ book of hidden knowledge for our dreamlands, as the

Having been stupid enough to nominate myself for compiling a FAQ, I need
some help with a question: What constitutes the Cthulhu Mythos?

Stories such as "The Call of Cthulhu" and "The Dunwich Horror" are obvious
Mythos. "The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath" isn't - it's a Dreamlands tale.
I also discount August Derleth's "war-in-heaven" stories. What about "From
Beyond"? "Herbert West - Re-animator"? Lumley's "The Burrowers Beneath"?
"Illuminatus"?

So I would like to know:

(a) How do you define the Mythos?

(b) Which stories (by HPL or others) do you think form the core of the Mythos?

(c) Which stories are part of the Mythos but not core material?

Please email me, or post if you want to start an argument.

We too recently were playing with a scenario that involved a 
living farm.  This was a commercially prepared scenario which
I don't know the name of, so I probably shouldn't post any
secrets.  The game involved a company called "Dawn BioZyme".

Does that ring a bell?  It was set in modern day.  The group I
play with occasionally have had the best adventures in modern
day, mostly because it is easier to do resourceful and creative
things in more familiar surroundings.

But sigh, our regular GM just moved to Hawaii.  So no CoC for a 
while.
