Catalogue of Kult products

This list is a copy of a list distributed by METROPOLIS LTD at the end of 1995. It is old, but I have not seen a more recent list. And neither the people at Target Games nor those at Metropolis Ltd. have been very talkative on this subject ...

KULT RPG


Authors: Gunilla Johnsson, Michael Petersen.
Kult is a contemporary role-playing game of ultimate horror. It takes place here and now, in the reality of today. But reality is not what we think. Around us the world is dark and dangerous and nothing is what it seems to be.

Kult is set in large cities at the end of the 20th century. It is a world where human wickedness is mingled with terrors from other parts of reality. But human darkness is not all that threatens: the evil that humans do corrodes the boundaries of reality and admits creatures from the other side. Our dreams assume physical form and pursue us into the daylight.

The characters of the game can be seekers of truth, perhaps motivated by a desire to regain a forgotten past, or to have revenge, or by simple curiosity. They aren't pure-hearted crusaders against evil. Rather, we should think of them as lost souls who need to slay their own demons in order to have peace. Terrors from childhood rise up and assume physical forms. Horror is created inside us.

In this game, the heroes are forced to go into darkness, perhaps into death--only to discover that there is no end. For the characters of Kult, Death is only a beginning.

Kult is a complete role-playing game. It contains rules for creating player characters with abilities, dark secrets, advantages, disadvantages and skills. Ready-made archetypes will enable you to create an interesting character speedily and commence playing. There are rules for encountering terror; advanced, realistic combat rules; and a comprehensive, logical magic system.

The consistent background will help you to recreate different horror atmospheres. Our illusion and the dark reality behind it is described in great detail, together with the creatures and cults who lurk behind the veil. NOTE: Kult is translated from a game first released in Sweden in 1991. This translation is unabridged: nothing has been removed. The entire horrifying manuscript was translated (by a Methodist Minister no less) is intact. A few locations were changed by the Metropolis editors in order to make the game more "familiar" to US players. Stock #: 5000

METROPOLIS SOURCEBOOK

Metropolis is a campaign module to the role-playing game Kult.
This book re-creates Metropolis, the Original city of the True Reality beyond the Eternal Lie which was conceived by the Demiurge to keep us in slavery. We will tell you when, where and how someone will break through the great Illusion to wind up in Metropolis, and what then happens.
Metropolis is no strict textbook; these covers do not contain every single fact nor the definitive description of the other side of the Illusion. You will find no absolute answers, no final explanations or statements. In fact, Metropolis cannot be described in any particular way, though Metropolis is a story which demands to be told.Chapters include: The Structure of Madness, the Lairs of Power, Cogs in the Machine, The Damned, Memory Banks, the Primal Sea, the Clockworks, the City of the Dead, and the Mirror Halls. Also included are ideas for playable incidents, appedices and an index. Page Count: 172 in duotone
