Evil Outsider Cultists and Creative Uses of Evothaum
« on: July 16, 2016, 10:05:23 PM »
Still putting together details for my Gencon event, and I would like to crowdsource some ideas for evothaum attacks made by genre savvy, nothing to lose Outsider cultists. They have a form of sponsored magic that allows for evothaum when breaking the 7th law, as well as for transformations and biothaum that corrupts or distorts reality. It's a one shot end of the world sort of game, so I'm not worried about horrific long term consequences for the PCs. They need to be afraid and in over their head. Any thoughts on what type of effects to throw around?

Quick summoning is a classic. Other ideas, mostly cribbed from an ex-PC of mine...

-Punch holes in reality, leading to the Nevernever or Outside
-Destroy thresholds and other barriers
-Infuse an item or person with power from the Outside which doesn't actually do anything, but looks mind-shatteringly horrible to The Sight
-Transform into a tentacle monster
-Send the whispers of the Outside into someone's mind
