  • Fan Nickname: Gnarly (Nyarlathotep), Buzz (any individual Mi-Go) ETs (Elder Things), etc.
  • Memetic Mutation: SAN check.
    • "Cthulhu eats 1d4 adventurers per round."
    • "You're dead. And crazy."
    • IA IA CTHULHU FHTAGN!!!
    • ARGH, MY EYES
    • MAN THE HARPOONS
    • Old Man Henderson. Just... Old Man Henderson. That's really all there is to say on the matter.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel: All the typical Lovecraft stuff; cosmic horror, zombies, unfathomably ancient aliens etc...But then consider all the other mythos writers' creations that show up...And then add in some of the scenario writers' creations.
    • Y'Golonac. Just Y'Golonac. (YOU FOOL! YOU'VE DOOMED US ALL!!)
    • The monster that causes the problems in the scenario Crack'd and Crook'd Manse. A particularly graphic description plus the investigators realising just how big it is can call for a pretty rapid exit strategy from the characters. And the players.
