Rules for HP Lovecraft in "Call of Cthulhu" game?

Post by Peregrin Toker »

Were there ever made stats for H.P. Lovecraft himself so that he could be used as a NPC in Chaosium's Call Of Cthulhu tabletop game??

It's certainly an interesting idea....

Yes, along with Arthur Cohen Doyle he was the primier occult expert of the 1920's in real life. Famous for disproving most hoaxer's although a couple of girls with fake fairies beat them...

How is this game, by the way? I saw the core rulebook for $15 in EB the other day.

I don't know I only have the original old series Choasium rules, percentile skills, and 3d6 six attibutes system of Old D&D, Arduin, & Stormbringer.

Mind you I do have the Stormbringer to WoD conversion rules somewhere.....

Lets see, I have the cards to both HP Lovecraft and Harry Houdini in the old Mythos card game. When I get home I'll have a look at them and convert them to 5.5ed CoC.

Okay, now I've changed the thread's title in order to avoid further confusion.
