Cthulhu by Gaslight: Dust and Blood - PDF

The scenarios in this book highlight the grimy underbelly of Victorian London. The first, Dust to Dust, works well for novice Keepers and players, while Signs Writ in Scarlet provides a deeper and more widespread mystery to challenge experienced players.

This one-shot scenario is suited to three to six players and can be played in one or two sessions. While set in London, it may be relocated to any large town or city in Victorian Britain. The investigators are assumed to be working-class employees at Lange’s Dust Yard, a disposal center for the city’s trash, although a broader range of investigators is possible.

This deadly sandbox-style scenario is best suited for experienced Keepers. Set in London’s East End, it may take several sessions of play for up to six investigators, who come from a variety of social class backgrounds.
