Cthulhu Invictus Companion (2011)

Publisher Blurb:

As Rome’s influence spread throughout the known world, so too spread the worship of its gods. Roman leaders knew that converting the people of conquered regions to the state religion would make them easier to control. But some gods have been worshipped longer than Rome has existed, and their supplicants won’t easily change allegiances.

Cultorum Externum includes three scenarios for Call of Cthulhu pitting investigators against cults from different regions of the Ancient Roman Empire. Investigators will confront terrible servants of ancient powers through the Streets of Rome and Carthage, the forests of Gaul, and while sailing the river Nile. Includes new cults and Cthulhu Invictus entities.

Six new cults and secret societies: two for Gaul, two for Egypt, two for Africa Proconsularis.

Three scenarios:
Chuma Invicutus: A routine trading mission from Alexandria to Meroe goes horribly wrong and the investigators are drawn into the Nile trip from hell. This scenario originally appeared in the Cthulhu Invictus monograph and reappears here heavily modified.

Morituri Te Salutamus: A day at the games turns into a quest to find who is kidnapping the slaves from Patrician villas. This scenario originally appeared in the Cthulhu Invictus monograph and appears relatively unchanged. Some errors have been fixed.

Bacchanalia: This scenario takes the investigators to Carthage where some of its citizens are chaffing under Roman rule and yearn to be free. By any means necessary. This scenario didn't appear in the Cthulhu Invictus monograph.
