Hudson and Brand, Inquiry Agents of the Obscure.

Created by Stygian Fox Publishing

Hudson and Brand: Inquiry Agents of the Obscure is the first in our ‘Safe House’ series where players of the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game (published by Chaosium, Inc), have a home-base for their characters to work out of. At hand, they will have resources, a gun range, a collection of monographs on various subjects, a small library, three members of staff, and property consisting of offices and lodgings in the very heart of London.

Hi everyone, Hudson & Brand has gone off to Mike Mason at Chaosium for approval. There might be one or two errors that have slipped through but it's done! I'm hoping to be able to at least release the PDFs to you before Christmas but we'll have to wait and see, Mike will be rushed off his feet this time of year. I'll keep you up to date when I get news. Until then, have a wonderful time over this coming festive period x

Deadline

Hi again,

I'm placing a deadline of one week for responses to the surveys for Powers, Spirits, Immortals, and Curator levels. 

These have naming opportunities and Badger needs to complete the PDF. Any who fail to respond in that time will have their name put in the back (instead of their chosen character name) and the occupation entry will be left blank.

Please check through your emails and respond if you haven't so far.

Reward Surveys.... and Madam Yau.

Hi all, 

The Reward Surveys have been sent out as we're very nearly at the end of the production. If your level has a naming opportunity* then please get that survey back to us so we can put you in the book and send it off to the loveable loons at Chaosium.

*PLEASE look this up before contacting us!

Here's the first view of an NPC(or Pregen) and a blank character sheet so you can start rolling characters. The Gaslight Autocalc sheet is available here: https://www.chaosium.com/cthulhu-character-sheets/
NOTE: To save these sheets you need to 'right click' (on Windows) and 'save as', then open up in your copy of Adobe Acrobat. Acrobat is available here:

Hi-resolution character sheets will be available once the go-ahead has been given by the Old Ones (Mike Mason, Jeff Richard, et al) ;)

It's nearly finished and we're now putting the 'xxx' issues and links to bed. This PDF should be with you by Christmas, hard copies very shortly after.

 

See page XXX

Hi all, 

We're really close to finishing the regular book. Badger has completed layout and we're going over it and resolving all the 'See page XXX' mentions so we can link it all up!

It's a matter of a week or three before the PDF will be off to Mike Mason at Chaosium for his ok, and then, if all is fine with them, it'll be in your hands that day. Then you can let us know things like:

"How did you miss that???"

Spelling errors we've somehow missed

"Can I have Grover from Sesame Street appear in the book?" (no).

There's a reference that points to nowhere (I'm sure it just leads to Azathoth's court but we'll look into it).

and

Image quality that doesn't quite meet your expectations.
