Pagan Publishing is proud to announce the return of Blair Reynolds to the world of Call of Cthulhu! Laid out and illustrated by Blair Reynolds, The Mysteries of Mesoamerica is a labor of love, and it shows on every page.
De Vermis Mysteriis is featured in a Lovecraftian story by horror writer Stephen King entitled 'Jerusalem's Lot' (1978)—part of the Night Shift collection, wherein the main character, Charles, touches the book and releases a gigantic white worm, which was worshiped by the town's previous inhabitants.

With a sourcebook by Clint Staples and four scenarios written by Pagan regulars John H. Crowe III and Brian Appleton, Mysteries of Mesoamerica is a product that will move the bar by which products in the RPG market are judged. Inside you will find everything you need to immerse your players in the world of Mesoamerican archeology during the classic Call of Cthulhu period. The first 84 pages are sourcebook material, beginning with Clint Staples material describing the cultures that dominated the New World before the arrival of Columbus, with particular attention to the details of the religious themes that dominated the region: blood, sacrifice, death. There is also information on the modern states of the region including revolutionary Mexico and Banana Republics like Honduras, and the histories of the most important figures in the study of these ancient peoples. Brian Appleton has written articles on the ancient weapons of the Mesoamericans, as well as cataloging the deities and monsters of local mythology. Besides his exquisitely bloodcurdling illustrations, Blair Reynolds has also contributed an article on Maya calendrics, which should be of interest to everyone as the winter solstice of 2012 continues to approach.
Covering another 120 pages, the four independent scenarios do not form a cohesive campaign, but as all of the scenarios require the same skill set (experts in Mesoamerican archeology) from player characters, a Keeper could easily run all four of the scenarios in sequence. 'The Well of Sacrifice,' by John H. Crowe III, is a bit of a legend around Pagan Publishing. Playtested again and again, the scenario gained the nick-name 'The Boneyard.' Let's hope your players fair better than we did. 'The Mehirs in the Grotto,' by Brian Appleton, brings the Investigators to central Mexico, where an ancient evil is being unearthed by modern progress. 'The Heretics,' by John H.
Crowe III, places the Investigators between two warring groups of Mythos cultists, with very few good options open to them. 'The Temple of the Toad,' by Brian Appleton, provides a grim epiloge to a classic tale of the Cthulhu Mythos, one that could easily consume the members of an expedition into the jungles of Honduras. And speaking of unlucky, foolish and otherwise doomed Investigators, keep an eye out for a new feature in The Mysteries of Mesoamerica that will become a standard feature in upcoming Pagan Publishing products: The P.C. Which chronicles those stalwart adventurers who failed one too many die rolls or ignored the advice of fellow players. Includes the player character's name, profession, date of death and any notable last words. Or at least the stupid thing they said just before they got themselves killed.
Approximately 120 pages of the book are given over to its four scenarios; the remainder is source material.
I could be wrong, but last I heard, Pagan wasn't interested in doing PDFs. These days, though.yeah, *anything's* possible!
Oh no.we're interested. I'd love to get a few of our out of print books back to the public via pdf. Gotta round up the permission slips from the authors and artists though and I haven't had time with Mysteries of Mesoamerica and Delta Green Eyes Only on my plate. Now don't bug me for 48 hours!
I'm checking the corrected layout for Delta Green: Eyes Only before it either gets more corrections (DAMN! I already found a new mistake! That'll be another 24 hours of delay.) or goes to the printer. Are you guys keeping track of the corrections so that us guys with the hardcover of DG:EO can eventually get an errata sheet? Well, I'll see about doing an errata sheet for both DGEO and the DGd20 edition books on our website. But that won't happen until August.
