A Cthulhu by Gaslight Scenario by Miskatonic Repository / Chaosium
LONDON, 1887
A fog-choked, soot-stained city of gas lamps and greed. Ebenezer Scrooge, the main character in Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol”, is now an old man. He may have bettered himself since those events, several years ago, but he is still ruthless as a merchant and a captain of industry. Recently, he has purchased and cleared some of St. Michael’s ostensibly unused church land to make way for his new project: “Model Housing for Industrious Families”. He may present this as a benevolent thing – he may even tell himself that it is, but in the end, this is about making money.
In this Cthulhu by Gaslight scenario, investigators revisit Dickens’ London and the character Ebenezer Scrooge. Some things may seem familiar, but others have changed. This is another kind of Christmas Carol, with teeth!
