Lovecraft. Horror. Roleplaying.

The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown.

Unfortunately, you are still too early for this and we have to put you off a bit. Please feel free to continue browsing the site or just come back later. You are also welcome to follow our Twitter account @FHTAGNRPG for news and updates.

Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!

“What do we know,” he had said, “of the world and the universe about us? Our means of receiving impressions are absurdly few, and our notions of surrounding objects infinitely narrow. We see things only as we are constructed to see them, and can gain no idea of their absolute nature. With five feeble senses we pretend to comprehend the boundlessly complex cosmos, yet other beings with a wider, stronger, or different range of senses might not only see very differently the things we see, but might see and study whole worlds of matter, energy, and life which lie close at hand yet can never be detected with the senses we have.“

– From Beyond, Howard Phillips Lovecraft, 1934

From the Stone Age to the Future

The horror role-playing game FHTAGN allows playing with cosmic horror in all eras from the Stone Age to the near future. The focus is on the present, but all the rule mechanics also work in the Dreamlands, the Golden Twenties or even in outer space.

Die Schuppen der Schlange

Seltsame Träume suchen all jene heim, die eine der Schuppen der Schlange in ihrem Besitz haben. Für einige ist es ein Hilfsmittel für mächtige Visionen, für andere ein Fluch.

Aufnahmen des Mythos

Angeregt durch eine Frage in der Kreativ-Ecke des dLG-Discord-Servers, gab es eine schöne Diskussion darüber, ob und wie Foto- bzw. Video-Aufnahmen des Mythos in modernen Settings vermieden werden können oder sollten. Hier eine Zusammenfassung der Ergebnisse.

Deutsche Lovecraft Gesellschaft

The Deutsche Lovecraft Gesellschaft e.V. (dLG; German Lovecraft Society) is a non-profit association in the German-speaking world and sees itself as a cultural community of people who are interested, in whatever form, in the work of the American author Howard Phillips Lovecraft. This is about his stories and their characters on the one hand and about their cultural use in role-playing games, movies, board games and other media on the other hand.

Under the umbrella of the dLG, the FHTAGN rulebook is therefore made available to the general public and actively developed further. This is intended to promote the discussion of the works of H. P. Lovecraft and other authors and to enable a contemporary interpretation.
