Like all the other Chaosium companion books, this one is a potpourri of stuff. There are rules from bolting on Call of Cthulhu’s sanity system, some new demon abilities, some runes. Most of the book is dedicated to two scenarios. The first, Sorcerer’s Isle, is OK. The other, The Velvet Circle by Larry “Masks of Nyarlathotep” DiTillio, is excellent. It is honestly kind of annoying how DiTillio shows up for like one adventure for every Chaosium game, nails it and moves on. What a jerk right? (I am totally kidding, I love DiTillio).

Larry DiTillio died on Friday, but I'm only just now hearing about it (which shows you how up to date I am on current events). For those who don't know, Mr. DiTillio literally wrote the book on She-ra...as in, the series bible. He basically created most of the characters on that show. He also wrote scores of episodes of both the classic He-man series, and the 2002 reboot, as well as the Secret of the Sword movie that introduced She-ra. Thank you for all of the stories that you gave us 80's kids, Mr. DiTillio. You truly did have the power. I haven't had a chance to make any new She-ra art to commemorate his passing as of yet, so here's a Hordak I did a while back that will have to do until I get a chance to create some new art. I just had to post something in memory, considering how much of this man's body of work was an inspiration to me in my own work. ----- #shera #heman #motu #larryditillio #writer #tvcartoons #80scartoons #inmemory #rip #larryditilliomotu #mastersoftheuniverse #mastersoftheuniversewriter #sheracreator #prismacolor #copicart #hordak #evilhorde #evilhordak #motuhordak #motufanart #motufan #artistsofinstagram #artistsofpatreon (at Baton Rouge, Louisiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvNAQzOgt5h/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4ddhw3d7no8s
