Looking for something themed around Hastur short of.. the actual mythic tome "The King in Yellow". Was going to take a stab and reskinning one of the other tomes, and trading out a few spells. But thought I would check that there were not any other cool wells of material to tap into here.

I thought it might be nice to put out a thread on what people are currently running or have run recently. Anything CoC related should be fine.

I asked this post once in another site that shall not be named, and it had a lot of fun answers, so I'll throw it out here.

"What is the best use you've ever seen of the Cthulhu Mythos skill?"

It's such a difficult skill to build up, and using it successfully is a very difficult feat to pull off, what's been your favorite way to see it "work" for a player?
