Trail of Cthulhu – RMS Titanic: The Millionaire’s Special

***CAUTION:  Contains numerous, explicit sexual references.  Touches on issues of racism and segregation.  Player characters act like player characters.  You have been warned.***

Everyone knows the story of the Titanic.  Not everyone knows the dark secrets that rest with her on the ocean floor.

RMS Titanic: The Millionaire’s Special was used as a one-shot scenario to introduce players to the GUMSHOE system.  During the Titanic’s final hours, the players investigated the ambitious schemes of a wealthy media mogul and raced to stop the consequences of his actions.  But the ancient evil he awakened would not be destroyed so easily.

It took a doomed ship to bring her down.

Using their characters’ abilities to their advantage, the players traded sexual favors for weaponry, pursued their artistic talents to uncover the truth, read through ancient tomes in the Titanic’s 1st-Class library, and transformed a ham and cheese sandwich into an information dump.

The only thing missing?   Historical accuracy.

The Titanic’s final hours was truly a night to remember.
