A cult that focuses on money. Took me quite a while to find a decent picture for this one. Hope you like it.

This one turns "old" Hastur into new Hastur.

This one turns old Cthulhu into new Cthulhu.

In Herbew mythology, Lilith was the first wife of Adam. Lovecraft made use of the myth in The Horror of Red Hook. The Tenements are a location in Aylesbury on the new Lovecraft Country Horror map I am working on. You can use the Train Station in their absence.

This Herald should work particularly well with Magnum Innomandium or Mordiggan.

I think I like this second version better. "All Gates in Dunwich are endless." It avoid the game breaking but does not close opportunities.

Jake,

your heralds are very nice. Short and efficient ! Good Job.

Yeah, that's what the final draft will be about. I'll post it later :-) thx for the feedback

Ok, revised edition of the Shapeless Mouths.

Some changes: now you're allowed to spend the gate trophies as normal, but you cannot gain trophies from the gates in Dunwich. Besides, you add a doom token to the doom track on a 4-6 (this should grant longer games, the DH awakening is a +1.5, which means no game over, even if you should better not underevaluate the threat) and if the AO wakes up with the Horror in play, it's a +5 for his doom track.

Again, feedback's very welcome

Tru'nembra appeared in the Lovecraft story, "The Music of Erich Zann," though I don't think it was named or given an official role in the Mythos until later. I notice that another player has posted an AO version of Tru'nembra, so it's the players' choice whether to use the Angel of Music as a Herald or an AO.

I really liked the picture and the first ability ;') (The other ability is good thematically, but I don't like it in terms of its effects on game strategy at all).

This was my first Herald, but give it to me straight. I wanna know how bad it is. This is after modification from play-testing.

Inspired by MarbleHornets and the SomethingAwful forums.

It's okay (meaning I think it'd add to the game's theme and challenge).  I don't think it's bad.  It's just not quite to my taste (and I made an AO that does the stalker effect, kind of).  Personally, printing out monster chits is not to my taste, but others don't mind it.  I probably would have just prefered to modify the dimensional shamblers and gave them altered statistics so they do what you want Slender Man to do.

Here are a few things I'd do differently (that aren't just a matter of personal preference, I think).  There are hardly any maniacs, dump that last paragraph and make it so that if the AO's worshippers are Cultists, they gain nightmarish 2 instead.  Other than that, I think everything's fine.  Welllllll... I would reduce text a lot (only use two of the bold headings, three at most, but I'd aim for two).  Change the line "place the Slender Man on this sheet" to "Slender Man returns here if defeated in combat."

Also, clarifying how the additional movement type as stalkers works is important (i.e. how does it work with flyers, and yellow bordered monsters).  You should clarify your intent there.

Nice overall. Good job. Keep posting new ones ^^.

I don't quite understand what Slender Man's Reach implies. Unstable are defined by gate opening locations, so what is the point of pretending stable location are unstable ??

It is time consuming to search the mythos deck for a wood gate. I'd go for "ignore the gate location and open a gate in the woods whatever there is on the mythos card".

Maybe I'm missing the point, but I think it means that Stalkers can follow you anywhere now, rather than letting you hide in the General Store. I agree with your sentiments on the Mythos card.

Ugh? Stalkers only follow you in unstable locations?
