THE FUNGI FROM YUGGOTH

click to enlarge

Identity: Lesser Independent Race
Group Affiliation: They worship both Nyarlathotep and Shub-Niggurath.
Base of Operations: They are an interstellar race with a main colony on the Yuggoth (Pluto). There are mining colonies on earth, where the Mi-Go seek rare ores in mountainous areas.
Side: Evil
Height: 5' long
Hair: None
Eyes: None
Level: 12th
Experience: 77,000
Training: +1 Intelligence

Powers:

1. Adaptation
2. Animal/Plant Powers (Plant/Fungus): The Mi-Go have definite connections with fungi, and are clearly not animal. They have the following powers:
        a. Heightened Agility A +10
        b. Heightened Endurance A +8
        c. Natural Weaponry (Claws/Talons): +1 to hit, +2 Damage.
        d. Heightened Agility A +10
3. Body Power (Mi-Go Physiology): The Fungi from Yuggoth (Mi-Go) are not composed of ordinary terrene matter ([Invulnerability] 10 points). Mi-Go communicate with each other by rapidly changing the colours of its head. While on earth, Mi-Go have developed a voice-box organ that approximates human language with weird, buzzing tones. Perhaps one of the greater abilities of a Mi-Go is the ability to metamorphosize and transform their bodies, after prolonged effort (2d10 days and 40 PR), creating or deleting organs or body members as desired. They currently have a set of wings that interact with another dimension that allow Mi-Go to fly ([Atmospheric Flight] Max Speed = 121 times the speed of sound within an atmosphere; PR 1 per hour. [Hyper-flight] Max speed = 121 times the speed of light, PR 1 per day.
4. Heightened Intelligence A +12
5. Heightened Expertise: +4 to hit with Mi-Go weapons.
6. Psionics (Cause Fear & Insanity): Mi-Go naturally cause fear & insanity in humans around them (radius of 26" (I in inches) at no power cost), and it lasts until the victim can make a successful saving throw vs. Intelligence x2 on percentage dice. A Mi-Go may suppress this ability at the PR cost of 5 per person affected.

Origin and Background:
Notes: The Fungi from Yuggoth are reknown for creating strange and alien devices. The GM is encouraged to come up with such inventions to keep the PCs on their toes. Here are a few examples of such inventions. To create such an invention costs an inventing point.
      a. Human Transport Canisters (Cyborg Power Device): Upon the realization that the victim is nothing but a brain floating in a canister, he must make a percentage saving throw vs. Intelligence/2 or succumb to insanity. This condition lasts until the victim can make a successful saving throw.
      b. Lightning Rod (Lightning Powers Device): Range 26", 4d12 damage, PR 2/shot; Power Pool 200, Regenerates 1 point of power per every six hours.
      c. Surgical Cube (Mutant Power Device): A device used for surgical procedures. [scalpel] Range 1", +9 to hit, 6d10 damage, 0 PR cost; [Freeze Ray] Range 2", +4 to hit, PR 1; [Laser] Range 4", +4 to hit, PR 1; Power Pool 140, Regenerates 1 point of power per every three hours.

 

SPELLS

Contact Fungi from Yuggoth

This spell costs 8 Power per turn and 2d12 turns to cast. Once the spell is cast, the caster must make a saving throw versus his Intelligence x2 or suffer an additional loss of 1d10 Power. The spell must be cast either at the base of a high mountain, or on the mountain itself. The mountain must be part of a range known to be mined by the Mi-Go. Such ranged include the Appalachians, the Himalayas, and the Andes.

Once the spell has been cast, the contactee may not appear for an hour or a day or more (roll 1d100 hours) -- the caster does not know when, and must wait. Those Mi-Go living nearby will fly to the caster. Remember that there is no guarantee that a contacted Mi-Go would rather bargain than abduct the caster, or that it might not have some other alien scheme in mind.
