Pyramid of Horus

[Old Dwarf]

Having the mythos hand me my Butt in a couple of Games of AH3 I
decided to try something else.I tend to buy Games that have a similar Theme
(thus my Gazillion Lovecraft Stuff) So I'm switching over to my Pulp Themed
Games & try winning in the 1930's.

These include Fortune & Glory,Ancient Terrible things & the Adventures
Pyramid of Horus & Temple of Chac. I chose Pyramid of Horus as I've
never had it on the table before.

The Game lets you explore a Pyramid for Treasure while falling blocks
of stone either crush you of seal you in by blocking the exits.Oh &
Mummies may attack you as well,then there are the snakes,scorpians
& crocks thrown for good measure.

I've added some Fluff to match the Fortune & Glory Good Guy/Nazi thing
to tie the Pulp 30's Theme together for these Games.Here's the opening
Background (the Nazies won the toss so the 2 Adventures are working
for the Reich.

Frauline Von Westarp is here Sir.

Come in ,Heilia it's good to see you again,I think we have a Mission that
will be of interest to you. I know your background in Egyptology has not been
fully utilized by the organization but that's changing due to the Reichsfuhrer's
new emphasis on securing occult items. Your going to Egypt!

Excellent Dr.Wirth ,it will be a pleasure to work in my specialty field & of course
serve the Fatherland. What's the Mission?

Basically it concerns a recently discovered unplundered Pyramid which may well contain
artifacts of great power.You'll be filled in by our spy in the Cairo Museum ,Abdel Wahabi
he's an expert on hieroglyphics,when you get to Cairo. If you determine the information he
has is reliable your to find & explore the Pyramid. You'll be assigned to the Reich Consulate
as a cultural attache as cover. A Zeppelin flight has been arranged for next Wednesday.Good Luck.

May I help you Madam?

Yes I'm looking for a Abdel Wahabi.

He's the the gentleman with the white beard at the corner table.

Mr.Wahabi,I'm Heila Von Westarp from the German Consulate ,you have
information for us I understand.

Have a Seat Madam,it's a long story. Last June a peasant came to me with an
ancient chest which contained a neckless & a Papyrus which he wanted to sell to
the Cairo museum. He was extremely nervous & asking for only a small amount of money
which led me to believe he was trying to pass off a fake. However upon examination the
the items were authentic then I read the Papyrus aloud & the poor man fainted.
He woke up screaming "their still alive!"I had to subdue him & gradually his senses
returned.He then told me the whole story.

He said he was out on the Abu Rawash Plateau looking for a lost cow & suddenly a sink hole
opened beneath him & fell to the bottom which revealed a tomb entrance.He entered but had
only the dim light from the hole entrance. The tomb was intact & he went in & grabbed the
the nearest chest then a large stone fell from the roof & he ran out fearing the whole structure
was coming down.He turned for a final look, & here is where it gets weird,he swears he saw
walking mummies. The man was so scared he told me to keep the chest that it was cursed
& he just wanted to get rid of the thing.

OK Abdel, that's an interesting story but why did you contact Us about it,my chief indicated
that this had something to do with Occult power artifacts ?

I said it was a long story, I contacted your organization because of what the papyrus
revealed .Are you familiar with Sanaknt?

Pharaoh 3rd Dynesty ,when he ruled is disputed & his supposed Mastaba K2 at Beit-Khallaf is
subject to controversy.I still don't see any connection to power artifacts.

Well Madam,the papyrus indicated that the tomb is dedicated to Horus,Thoth,Sobek,Anubus
& contains the remains of Pharaoh Sanaknt,his wife Initkaes & his architect Imhotep.
It reads they shall live forever there & are protected by the Fist of Seth. I believe
this Fist of Seth is a powerful artifact which can reanimate the dead.I should think
it it would be to your countries army interest.

I see your point Abdel,but still it's a wild story I'll need some solid proof before
I'll go any farther.

I understand Madam do you read Hieroglyphics? If so here's the papyrus study it for yourself,
if your convinced you can organize an expedition to the pyramid.

OK Abdel ,I read not as well as you but with a couple of days study I can figure it out.
But no expedition if this is real an expedition would be too big to hide & would tip off
the British & any treasure hunters for kilometers around.It would be just you & me.
I'll be in touch.

Yes that would be most wise,Good day Madam.
