The Cults Issue

Creating Cults
Cultists are to horror games what goblins are to fantasy games: numerous, cheap, disposable opponents. Dressed in hooded robes, armed with torches and ornate daggers, the fanatical hordes come cheerfully to their deaths, assaulting the PCs in wave after wave. They are – quite literally – faceless enemies, ciphers rather than creatures, with no individual personalities, no goals beyond death or slaughter, and no agenda beyond serving evil for its own sake. They might as well be kung-fu movie mooks, or ambulatory shooting-range targets.


This vision of cultists, as crazed and unstoppable fanatics, has a long pedigree in pulp fiction, and in pulp-influenced games such as the more action-oriented Cthulhu Mythos adaptations. They have their place in gaming, but with a little thought, cults and cultists can be made into so much more. They can become intelligent, devious organizations with clear goals and definite methods; sinister organizations whose tentacles reach to the highest levels of power and influence. They can be the equals of fabled organizations like the Knights Templar, the Freemasons, or the Assassins. All the GM needs to do is follow a few simple steps.

The Call of Yehtis – The Third in a 3-part Mini Campaign to Mythras
The third last part of a mini-campaign set in the world illustrated in the Mythras core rules. By now our heroes should have recovered the Tear of Yethis, a mythical fist-sized diamond and the only weapon the serpent demon fears. Yet they know nothing of its use or history, and must learn its secrets before returning to Meeros.
Meanwhile Yethis, clothed in the body of Kratos, is not unaware of their actions. Alerted by the death of his drakon, he has laid plans to frustrate the heroes, before they can upset his plans to eradicate the Cult of Myceras.

Thus when the heroes return to Kopash with their prize, they will find themselves beset and undermined by various secret societies all working against them, puppets of divine powers who seek to influence the world ...

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
