About Me

Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!

You may call me Merrick. I hope this season finds whoever passes into my blog well. I fell madly in love with Lovecraft’s works what feels like an age ago. Today, his (and the subsequent Mythos) has expanded so much and has had such a deep impact on popular culture, but I find not as many people are actively reading these incredible works–especially not the expanded Mythos. That, to me, is a shame.

My reasons for this blog are the following:

  • Read through, analyze and comment on each of the works, helping to weave together any pieces of the Mythos that are meant for one another.
  • As a Keeper of Call of Cthulhu RPG, I want to speak to the references from modules, as well as help guide players to the Mythos so that they can enjoy Lovecraft, et al.
  • I want to build a community around the Cthulhu Mythos, one that harbors creativity and friendship. Call of Cthulhu RPG is not as widely known as D&D, and while I love both, we need to do a better job as a community of sharing the magnificence for the first.
