On Curious Findings and R'lyeh

[-Storm-]

Just a question:

The AI will summon things from the void gate?

[Shael]

yes there was talk of this somewhere else in the forusm

[Nerfix]

BTW can the Void *foo* Pretenders of R'lyeh use the Void Gate or do they get fried with 75% chance like any other poor Astral critter trying to use the gate?

Void Lords / Lurkers came from the Void Gate. They have more important goals then peeking back at their old friends. There is a whole new world to distort. Let the starspawns bother if they find it so interesting.

As Jotunheim finishing up a single-player game w/ T'ien Ch'i being the only surviving AI (and one that had maybe 2/3-3/4 of the map, *shrug* I don't like blitzing, would rather play with magic), I did Wish for a Vastness, cast Gift of Reason on it, found out that it was Astral-3 (no equipment slots 'tho), and empowered it to Death-3. Mmm, Soul Vortex + Blood Vengeance + Nether Darts...

Vastness is likely based on Azathoth.
Otherness... might be Shoggoths. Read "At the Mountains of Madness". *shudder*
Formless spawn came from Tsathoggua, probably.
Elder things also can be found in "At the Mountains of Madness".
Others of their monsters, e.g. hybrids, come from "The Shadow over Innsmouth".
Some others I'm not sure about, but then I haven't read all that much Lovecraft / Derleth / etc.

I would lke to see that "Nitrous green flame" thingy, Star Vampires, Abboth and those "lizardmen" from that scifi themed story.
