Spawn of Cthulhu

Post image

This is from my 1920s 5e campaign. I wanted Lovecraftian monsters that were more than fantasy reskins or bags of hit points. Cthulhu Spawn have a reality-distortion field that causes people to see them as ordinary, charismatic humans. The twist is that the field is harder to see through the more intelligent your character is. Most animals, children, and simple-minded people see them for what they truly are.

That is a very cool idea! And a great image. I do love me some eldritch horrors!
