This was the best spot to place this thread I'm supposing... but I wanted to let y'all know that I'm going to be formally published. I'm writing one of Chaosium's monographs, which are short and low-run works which maybe I can expand into a full-blown book later, who knows. Anyway, it'll be a Victorian-era thing, so might be useful for MOTRD (in fact, some of my d20 creations for MOTRD might make appearances in BRP statistics).

I'm not British, so anyone who is, forgive any errors I make. I'm just a Yank who reads about Jack The Ripper obsessively, reads Victorian horror obsessively, and watches old British horrors nearly as obsessively. ;)

And our very own Gemathustra is doing the art for the Bestiary section. He certainly likes his gelatinous, aquatic monstrosities.

I hope to have it done by August so that Chaosium can possibly have it by GenCon.

Is Fergie going to put it in the newsletter when it debuts as well Orang? Congrats on getting it published it is a hell of an accomplishment. UH-OH, sorry for the bad word :P Frat.

Note to self :Raid Chaosium offices sometime soon to get hands on all 1st edition publications they are hiding there. :twisted:

All I can say is... AT LAST! 8). I've been waiting for this a long, long time.

And the fact that Gema's providing the artwork for the bestiary section completes the deal for me.

Congratulations :wink:.

Although Ctulhu is not my setting, this topic has sparkled my interest. Post the link for the book here,, when it's finished, please!

Well, the rules will be Cthulhu. At least as the campaign stands right now, I'm not using a whole lot of literal Mythos stuff. More casual name-dropping once in a while (the PCs may find a document describing a family curse that mentions Nyarlathotep), but more just plain horror. That said, since this is Chaosium, I'm putting most of the Cthulhu stuff in sidebars.

Is everything still on track for the August release date?

Hopefully. It might be a bit after August, though, but likely thereabouts.
