Interesting #CallofCthulhu session last night. Still processing what happened but it turns out that my group really hates pre-generated characters.
I think it's broadly a product of my encouraging them to be independent and to have agency. Present them with a adventure where there is literally none and they bucked.
They compared the scenario to a murder-mystery dinner, discussed walking away, then discussed group suicide. Things only settled when I improvised a problem they had to solve.
