Welcome to Propping Up the Mythos, a collection of hints and techniques for creating objects from the Cthulhu Mythos. Whether they are for Keepers to use as props in Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu or Cthulhu Live roleplaying games, or simply for the personal enjoyment of Lovecraft fans, these directions should help anyone who is interested to jump right in. I encourage you to experiment and find what works best for you. Not sure what the Cthulhu Mythos is? Please go here to learn more about it.
