He said that if he were to power-game as a player in Carcosa he'd play a sorceror, but only use the banishment rituals. (Since they get a save, the other rituals are too risky.) In the original campaign, however, the players did use the murderous rituals (without dwelling on them: "We do what needs to be done."). As for asking the Cthulhoid entities questions: they asked them for information about other rituals. :)<br /><br />I've never played in the setting, but it seems that lots of other people do indeed take a "GWAR" angle on the thing.Alex J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00147269991231314528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-76911229697211970082014-06-02T14:31:08.582-04:002014-06-02T14:31:08.582-04:00Well, I own it, I've used it, and I've rev...Well, I own it, I've used it, and I've reviewed it on rpg.net. Not your usual fantasy RPG setting, but I thought it was pretty fucking awesome! Definitely not for everybody, though. <br /><br />I do like what RPGPundit said about a sense of humor. Carcosa lacked that. Also the Satanic High Priest janitor analogy was very amusing. Hahaha.<br />Venger Satanishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04447932700800930510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-22831692902146848872014-06-02T01:31:17.263-04:002014-06-02T01:31:17.263-04:00Yes, its a real product.Yes, its a real product.RPGPundithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17267330191433119298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-18828026112229098692014-06-01T22:23:14.081-04:002014-06-01T22:23:14.081-04:00I bought it when I bought LotFP.
