Becca: "You step into the basement and a figure appears" Party: "So anyways I started blastin"

Reasonable people when faced with 90% of Call of Cthulhu shenanigans: "That seems like a lot"

I hope Becca's Cthulhu sessions gain more traction. I love cosmic horror themes!

I just love that twinkle that Becca gets in her eyes when someone fails a sanity roll. 😈 She's definitely one of the most creative Keepers of Arcane Lore that I've seen in watching these live plays.

Alex's voice work after that throat injury is 100 ❤❤

Heh. Becca Scott, redefining the term "She's a keeper!"

This scenario is so good for beginners. I ran it so many times since the 90's.

Had my first call of cthulhu game on Saturday and this is the one my keeper ran - was so good! Really enjoy this style of play.

OMFG yes another in-person Cthulhu campaign! Becca, your video of The Auction that I watched early this year was what got me into Call of Cthulhu (and the entire Mythos by H.P. Lovecraft). I'm glad you're doing another one of these!

Alex’s voice acting after his throat injury… WOOF that was so good

Becca, you're a terrific Keeper, on par with the best ones. And that 1920s hairdo is divine.

Oh cool, I hadn't seen Trisha Hershberger in so long. And Alex Ward was amazing in LA by Night, good to see him too.

Always nice to see a tsimisce messing with cthulhu!

Becca really is a great Keeper

I feel like knowing the word linoleum is one of the hallmarks of a great call of cthulu gm, it's so evocative of such a specific visual, and it's just a type of floor tiling material

I've definitely found my favorite new GM. You do a great job, Becca! I think it's safe to say we prefer the in-person sessions. Hope to see more Call of Cthulhu

Really liked this, especially thought Persephone and Trisha put a lot into this adventure. I've found when running Call of Cthulhu that it doesn't always appeal to everyone but those two really got into character. Thumbs up.

Just to add that the Auction had me in stitches and it was so well played by the people taking part... bravo...

So glad to see The Calyx back. Just in time, too. I was down to my last few SAN points.

15:00 Becca was waiting to cover someone in blood in this adventure since her time playing it on the chaosium stream a year ago.

Ran it last night. It's a great starter adventure, however I did add an extra challenge. Instead of Merriweather having the sarcophagus and book with him in the hospital (which I found a bit odd), the investigators got a small box with a very big strange key. They were told it was the key to his safe in his office in his home. Now the investigators had to charm/persuade/fast talk/intimidate the widow and son to get their way into the house, and search for the safe. It did add about 1h5 extra play time, but the challenge gave the players time to get to know their characters a lot better, and give the players who didn't know each other more bonding time before the main event.

The classic Call of Cthulhu intro adventure! Eager to see this take…

I love how Becca, like me, slips into a southern accent even though these games take place in New England

As someone new to D&D, your Call of Cthulhu was what made me follow your channel and I'm excited to see more of it! Edit: Just finished this and that was so fun! The players are wonderful as well!

I've never seen Trish actually play before. I'm used to seeing her interview TDR cast. She's so good! Pleasant surprise. This turned out to be a really fun watch

I LOVE, these one shots/specials

A cool detail about the PC François (as pronounced "Franswa") is she has a specifically male-gendered name (the last syllable specifies gender). If François is her birth firstname, she was assigned a man's name at birth. (The female-gendered name Françoise would have otherwise been pronounced "Franswaz" because of the last syllable specifying gender.)

Becca kicks ass! Love these live sessions I really wish there was more. Thank you for a great story!

I loved this!! Great job everyone and well done to Becca for absolutely slaying the keeper role like she always does. Keeps me coming back every time 🥰

Amazing session! Congratulations all.

I just finished playing this one shot last night. Had a lot of fun. It was my first Call of Cthulhu game. Definitely a different theme from DnD.

Becca you inspired me to buy the CoC starter set!

So cool! I was thinking of starting a call of cthulhu campaign/game sessions before, but the auction video was what really made me say let's do it. The calyx sessions from then on were very helpful for me as a new keeper.

Me too, that Auction session was the good stuff

My favorite pre-written scenario

I ran this adventure 15-20 years ago! Amazing its still relevant. My group of investigators killed the hobo (Red Jake) who then came back as a zombie during the ceremoy. It was a very intense adventure; players screaming and freaking out - good times :-D This was a very nice playthrough, great job by Becca!

The other Dark Brotherhood with the assassins and the mummies would make a good CoC story too.

Oh yea!! I'm binge watching The Calyx since beginning of this year.

this is exciting!

Totally love Beccas' CoC gamemastering 😄 Hope to see lots more 😄 Ty ty so much for everything Becca😁 And I soooooo miss Game The Game ☹

There is a magic to having an in person session! Loved this!

I enjoyed listening to this. I tend to root for the PCs, but part of me relishes when the Game Master gets a few hits in first. 😄

I'm so glad you did this! I'm running this with my investigators as their second case. I'm baffled by the note "Don't visit Boston", what am I missing?

i just love Call of Cthulhu. i have just purchased the starter box set. Becca you are an amazing Keeper. Just binge watching the videos at the moment...

This was so much fun. I will check out more of their streams! gg

That was very very fun! Thank you so much for doing that. Its very interesting looking at those adventures and looking at how different each group behaves. My group had a different experience from you all. Also those dice rolls were brutal lol

Just started getting into the calyx, very excited to see more call of cthulhu vids going up!

That was awesome!! Now, I need to listen to it a second time! Bang up job from everyone. Just wow!

What a fantastic session! Thank you all.

I've run this adventure so many times so it's a lot of fun to see this crew give it a go

This scenario was the first CoC game I ever played. After my character died horrifically I was hooked. Great to see you guys play through it too.

That was SO GOOD! Thank you all for this

so great

AHHHHH I'm so excited for this!! Can't wait to watch when I'm done with work

So thrilled for this! The first episode inspired my group to give CoC a try for the first time and it was a blast!

I enjoyed this a lot! Would love to see more adventures with Persephone and Trisha's characters, as well as the whole gang

Way to go Bex! I really enjoyed this. You are awarded 5 style point for the lamp trick. Turning it on with a snap.

Classic adventure. That was great.

BECCA AS A DM?? I had no idea she was doing this! Truly a treasure

This was hella fun! 🙌 Can't wait to see more in person Call of Cthulhu 💀 iä iä!

I have been looking for an actual play to ease me into CoC and this was awesome! Fun and engaging, not too silly. I'm a fan!

This was so fun! Thank you so much. Exceptional role playing!! (Didn't get to finish this campaign with my group, so great to see it played and played so well)

@@Bovrillor Edge of Darkness is included in Chaosium's CoC 7th ed. starter set. Also the quickstart rules, two other adventures, a solo (no keeper required) adventure, and some dice. Pretty good deal.

WHAT is that sound at 4:12?! It sounds like a tummy gurgle, but looks like Joe is presenting bubbles to the group.

Trish transforms so well! Amazingly well done. And Becca does a great job as always. A great show! Running CoC for the first time starting next week after a number of years of running D&D 5e.

That was so good! consider yourself followed. Having read through the campaign, and watched you play this as Keiko and now run the session, I can appreciate all the extra flourishes you've added. Keep it up!

Another great session

I see Persephone, I watch

Amazing

Amazing. And spooky as hell!!

That is a fumble sir. 😳 Becca is a strict keeper. 😈

That background music is fantastic, share it out? That set is really fun too. This is such a great scenario. Nice job Becca on great narration and pacing. One suggestion - prep a backup character or two & don't be afraid to kill PCs. The fear of death really ads to the tension & it makes the story even more interesting.

Check the description for a link to the audio source, though I don't know which particular tracks were used. Becca is trying to be more murderous but it's hard when players are friends. She seems quite happy to destroy Jake week after week in board games though.. Hmm.

I enjoyed this very much!

Now watching everything becca has ever done. Onwards comrades

Bad Gods, am I glad to see this! I've missed The Calyx something bad. Cheers KOAL Rebecca!

Love the background music! I always use music when running CoC.

I'd absolutely LOVE the chance to game with you folks. You have a great dynamic!

well done, well told, well played!

Just getting started on this. But I adore you as GM Becca, and the cast has performed with excellence so far (happy to see alex whom I appreciate from LAbN and the newly started NYbN chronicles) . Im definitly following this one till the end 😀👌

Probably the best first sceanio that can be run for a group. Also just fun to run in general.

Another great spooky story from the Queen of Cthulhu. 🙏

Thank God more calyx I love the series!

YES YES YES! Lots of my favorite players of games in this one!

Very enjoyable RPG session.

Yeeeessss, my offerings to the eldritch gods have been answered, I'm so happy to see more Call of Cthulhu!

I created the Astral Tabletop version of this book. Sweet stuff.

Poor Alexander had it rough, good sport though!

I was gonna comment as soon as the video came out, but it came out in the middle of the night so I fell asleep right after watching it, but Alexander's character's name is a reference to Ari Aster, right? Director of Hereditary and Midsommar. Great game btw, Becca is an amazing keeper and every player was a great addition

Such a good play though! ❤

This was fun to listen to

Damn those dice rolls! xD 100%, 98% and 96%... I don't even play the game but I am laughing out loud...xD What a disaster...! Good thing Françoise is there to help... xD

Hope Sister Trish survives. I love the old time setting of this game.

first time watching something on this channel!

Becca is the best keeper!!

😂 My players also asked for jerky as the first thing in Ross's Corners😂

Love for The Calyx.
