The Yellow Sign of the Four | Chaotic Neutral Plays Call of Cthulhu with Angory Tom

I love that Dom writes this very serious scary story and the players just play the most comedy characters they can ^_^ It's very Terry Pratchett :D

[@SuperCactusman]

It's an absolute testament to Dom's skill I feel. Call of Cthulhu should be creepy but no-one (except NRB Tom) likes playing creepy characters over funny characters. For Dom to allow four players each to have fun with their character quirks and still maintain an atmosphere of spookiness is demonstrative of his ability as Keeper.

[@simonbrake5072]

I feel like this is a standard thing for Call of Cthulhu GMs. Or perhaps I just have the same sort of luck that Dom does.

I tuned in to enjoy seeing Tom in something. But the entire cast were incredible, I found Dom's style as keeper to be utterly captivating. Now I shall have to dive in to the back catalogue of Chaotic Neutral shenanigans and watch the lot. I could not be more pleased to have stumbled upon this channel. Amazing work, thank you for the entertainment.

[@SuperCactusman]

3:16:40 is such an incredible example of good roleplay. Tom essentially set himself up to be shot and lose a huge amount of his hitpoints, and went ahead with it because it's what his character would do.

[@TallDarknGruesome]

I had to come back and compliment this because youtube app crashed at the end of the episode. :) #1 - Dom is fast becoming one of my favorite storytellers for online RPGs, his range of character and ability to manage player chaos is great. #2 - This is quite possibly the best use I have ever seen of the King in Yellow, most gms fall into a booga-booga monster pattern without understanding the gothic horror background of the character, its actually pre-Lovecraft and dates to 1895 by an author called Robert W Chambers for those of you who want to check it out. #3 - the final twist of the knife is the perfect Carcossa ending, and is beautifully executed by Dom. Every gag, every out of control player moment changes from comedy to horror, and the players don't realize it till its too late. The King in yellow isn't a tentacle monster our to eat you, or an uncaring cosmic entity. He's personal. He wants you to be your most magnificent self. Its just that sometimes the the most magnificent version of you, is the most magnificent disaster.

[@Blisterdude123]

Yeah, post-Lovecraft inclusion of KiY in the Mythos just turns him into another boring wobbly space monster. I much prefer the ideas of what he could have been before he got lumped in with Lovecraft.

[@WhizzerdSupreme]

KiY isn't a scary tentacle monster in the Mythos though, it's still just a play. The High Priest Not To Be Described isn't the KiY, nor is Hastur, although the latter has links to it. Whereas the King in Yellow is basically just a hallucination by the criminally insane.

[@Cassius40k]

The ending was so good, how you managed to draw from the last three hours of off-the cuff comedy RP and turn it into into absolute scary insanity.

[@MrZixad]

There is a scenaro that you follow along as it is with most pen and paper RPGs, you usually push your players into right direction with clues that are in the scenario like a NPC or a book. There are different endings depending on what players know and were able to prevent.

[@BassBumbass]

So, were they alaways insane and was it all a delusion, the entire case?

[@justelliot4870]

[@helen.highwater]

Tilly has, over time, become far and away my favourite member of NRB, and I love seeing her in videos. Detected a very definite twang of Mystic Meg in her accent today, which I adore. Of course, Dom is an absolute master of his craft, and that craft is evil.

Sully too - hilarious as always in a way that never misses. I love seeing Laurie get to have so much fun and show off his quick wit and character building skills!

The title of the video did give the game away somewhat! Can't use the colour yellow in CoC without raising a few eyebrows.

[@mwwwfc2918]

@@totallycarbon2106I play dnd and I haven’t read any Lovecraft, what does the colour yellow mean?? And writing plays??

[@Fuckyourselfgoogle]

@@mwwwfc2918 its a reference to The King in Yellow, a story actually not by Lovecraft, but with the same kind of cosmic horror theme, in it there's a mysterious figure in yellow that has a face looking like a mask but isn't and a play which is also called The King in Yellow which drives you insane when you read it

[@d36class]

​@@mwwwfc2918 So not Lovecraft but Robert Chambers created the concept of The King in Yellow and the Yellow Sign. The King in Yellow is a play that drives the reader or viewer mad. Often times the person doesn't realize they are going mad and believe things are happening (as shown in the game conclusion). A common connection between Chamber's stories is someone inevitably asking "Have you seen the Yellow Sign?" or "Have you read The King in Yellow?" So pretty much now anytime something is Lovecraftian (related to the Cthulhu Mythos) and there is yellow, that's pretty much a tell tale sign (lol yellow sign) of Hastur. Some of the characters in this one-shot are from "The Repairer of Reputations" by Machen
