Trellborg Monstrosities

As winter seeps into spring in 1943, the balance of the war between the Allied and Axis powers hangs on a knife edge. German forces have just suffered their first serious reverse at Stalingrad, US troops have driven the Japanese off Guadacanal, and the long beleaguered British hope to entice the Americans to enter the war in Europe and ultimately liberate the Nazi-occupied mainland. In Norway, a growing resistance movement becomes ever bolder and, working hand-in-hand with British intelligence, continues to cause the occupying Germans major headaches. In February, a combined British commando and Norwegian resistance team completed Operation Gunnerside, successfully blowing up the Vemork heavy water plant at Rjukan, thus sabotaging Nazi efforts to produce heavy water, a pre-requisite for the Nazi’s nascent nuclear programme. However in the far north, on the edge of the Arctic Circle, a new threat to the Allied cause is emerging, one that could change both the balance of the war and the future of mankind itself. The discovery of a long-forgotten Norse saga has led a prominent Nazi occultist in command of a Company of SS Black Sun troops to mount a mission to excavate a pagan temple, where he hopes to unleash evil from down the ages and unlock the secrets of an artefact that will dwarf the power of the atom.Yet, all hope has not been lost. There still remains a chance to thwart this new Nazi threat; the Norwegian resistance has sent word to London of strange activity around the mountain known as Odin’s Nrykin, or Odin’s Fist, close to the tiny village of Trellborg on the Norwegian-Finnish border—rumoured to be an ancient pagan site.

Trellborg Monstrosities is a game set in Trellborg, Norway, 1944, using the Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition and the Achtung! Cthulhu rules.
