CTHULHU disc: Book of Hidden Things
From Twilight Heroes Wiki
CTHULHU disc: Book of Hidden Things
Plural: CTHULHU discs: Book of Hidden Things
This disc was made by SQUID's corporate rival, CTHULHU. Which means this disc is Cyclopean Technology for HUman Learning and Heuristic Uplinks. It sounds like a bunch of corporate jibber-jabber, and it probably is.
This volume tells the story of a long forgotten, hidden city and all the horrible, horrible things its inhabitants did. That's probably why the label says "use at own risk."
