UtLS4E20: My Cockles Are Fluxed

On this episode of Under the Library, a Call of Cthulhu Podcast:

Buddy heads to Doc’s clinic to have his arm burns treated. He then seeks out Potter’s Place, a local shop for books and oddities, in search of information about the history of New Bloodstone. The proprietor, Rose, points Buddy in the right direction, and as he picks up a book, some handwritten pages fall out.

At the General Store, Sam offers shots of whiskey to Colette and Lloyd in an attempt to pinpoint what is strange about Lloyd’s manner. Sam then grabbed a bottle of Sheriff Coddington’s favorite liquor before heading across town. Colette headed the other direction, looking for an art gallery. Inside she meets a fellow artist with expertise in both metal working and gardening, who offers a tour of the beautiful Garden of Arts.

Finally, at the Sheriff’s Office, Sam delivers the bottle of Banshee Bitch as the sheriff calls to the back room “Jim, I hope that headache’s going away!”

Under the Library, an actual-play Call of Cthulhu podcast, where cosmic horror is steeped in mystery and slathered with self-deprecating humor. Our main storyline, a sandbox created by our Keeper (Michael), is set in (a fictitious) 1942 New Mexico and follows the misadventures of Collette (Emily), Eddy (Scott), Sam (Rick), Sister B (Wayne), and Buddy (Arthur). We focus on narrative, improv, and character building. We may stick our heads in front of a train because that’s what our character would do, and when we look under the bed even the Keeper may not know what we’ll find. We’re crafting a story, creating flawed characters, suspenseful events, and fulfilling revelations. Call of Cthulhu is a horror TTRPG; characters die horribly graphic deaths. It’s for mature audiences, but played by immature people. Find us at https://underthelibrary.com.
