Bumping for interest

I'll give it a watch in a bit

Haven't run it yet, but I think I'm gonna.

Been thinking about running a manhattan projects / x-files / level 7 type campaign... this might be just the thing.

>>53441758
It looks really cool, to me. Could fit well into a modern campaign, or be translated to whatever setting. If fantasy, for example, just make it some lord or king; if 40k, make it a planetary governor.

Is this the part where we're all suppressed to dissolve into orange Tang?

>>53441844
No, this is the part where we make a campaign about being a low-level office drone tasked with conducting a Lovecraftian summoning ritual while still trying to juggle your TPS reports.

>Goat sacrifice request form (GSRF)? I think Business Services has a stack of those
>Oh yeah, you need an ethics waiver from Compliance before you can get the GSRF
>Ethics Waiver? For a goat sacrifice? Only employees with true hero certification can get those
>For a True Hero Certification, you need a LOT of community service hours and defeat at least ten category five villains
>Whoa whoa whoa, you gotta get your villain confrontations pre-approved or they don't count for the certification
>You haven't even started the Basic Hero webinars, good luck getting approved without that.
>How am I supposed to know the site for the webinars? Try compliance, they might know

BREAKING NEWS: Trump has enacted the Theseus Protocol.

Here's another, where the WH staffers struggle with a "rune portal" near their copier.

Also, Trump may secretly be Skynet

The plot thickens.

Note: I'm not bringing this shit up to turn /tg/ into a /pol/ proxy, I'm bringing it all up because I think these funny articles could serve as the basis of an interesting rpg campaign or adventure. Trump as a cult leader with a secret Cthulu dungeon under the White House could be very entertaining. So lets not turn this thread into a /pol/-tier shitshow, huh?

>>53445008
Is that based El-Sisi on the left?

I've been pleasantly surprised so far that it hasn't.
God, I hope we're not jinxing it.

Me too, on both accounts.

So let's brainstorm some actual features of this adventure.

Possible Hooks:
>working for WH staff when this shit falls into your lap;
>be a willing cultist actually trying to get this thing done;
>some kind of outsider snooping around WH when you stumble across this (investigative journalist, foreign spy, govt official following some weird emails, cop investigating missing persons, etc.).

Possible Encounters:
>Snooping around WH upper floors to gather intel early on, probably disguised as a tourist or office worker;
>eventually discover entrance to the dig underground;
>dungeon crawl through the tunnels and later the excavated city, dodging Secret Service, cultists, and monsters;
>showdown at the Summoning Circle as you try to disrupt the ritual to open the portal before it's too late.

A running gag should be how the efforts of the cultists keep getting delayed by bureaucratic incompetence and legal constraints.

Bumping for Call of Cthulhu: Office Space edition.

>>53447455
The fact that the eldritch abominations are given tangible 3-D representations bothers me more than it probably should.

It takes out half the fun of the whole cosmic horror schtick

>Putin is one of the leaders of the Order of Saint Andrew, a pseudo-Christian cult interested in the preservation of this world at any cost
>the ISIS beheading and other executions are part of a larger memeticilly amplified blood sacrifice, the seek to unleash The Faceless King, one of the many rivals to the Trumpian cult
