Masks of Nyarlathotep (5th edition)

A globe-spanning investigative campaign set in the 1920s, where a small group of investigators follows a dangerous conspiracy that threatens humanity. Players gather clues, interrogate witnesses, decode occult lore, and confront cultists and otherworldly entities across multiple countries and continents. The scenario sequence begins with a prologue and then sends investigators to urban and exotic locations—New York, England, Egypt, Kenya, Australia, China, and others—each offering locations, maps, floor plans, and handouts to support play. The book provides statted adversaries, spells, artifacts, travel details, and guidance for running linked adventures as a single, extended campaign compatible with the core 7th-edition rules.
