"I see Ian's finally lost it. One tome of Cthulhoid lore too many I suppose." "Ian? Sanity? Somehow those two words don't really mesh in my head. At least, not without involving some sort of negation. And Cthulhu? Really? Ian eats squigglier things with his breakfast cereal." "Oooh. Remind me not to have breakfast at his place then. But what makes you so sure about that?" "This is Ian, remember. The one who publically sacrificed a naked virgin to Dagon." "She wasn't naked. She was wearing a nightie." "It was a see-through nightie." "That's why the bishop gave it a 9.0." "There was a judging panel? And there was a bishop on the judging panel?" "Of course! If you are going to be judged on the performance of religious ritual you might as well call in an expert. Besides, it was all put down to youthful exuberance and high spirits. Even the attempt to serve Roast Fungi From Yuggoth." "Gah! Who'd have ever thought that serving lobster stuffer with mushroom on a bed of icecream was a good idea. Besides Ian. Still, it did manage to install a proper appreciation for the more nauseous aspects of the Mythos." "And besides, it's not a serious occult work. It's only a game book. An adventure I believe. For that excellent Trail of Cthulhu game." "Then why is he giggling? And rather insanely at that." "Well, it's only a supposition, mind you, but I suspect he finds it rather humorous." "But there is only one reason that he'd find it at all funny." "Yep! We are soooo [censored] if he ever runs it for us." Description: Castle Bravo is an adventure by Bill White for Trail of Cthulhu from Pelgrane Press. Set in the 1954, it is an excellent adventure for a single session game for players with all levels of Mythos knowledge. Those with high Cthulhu Mythos scores will simply cringe faster. Available as a PDF for US$5 from OBS. Overall Rating: Bill White is an evil evil man.
