Races
Deep Ones
The Deep Ones are an amphibious race that primarily serves the two beings known as Father Dagon and Mother Hydra but also have strong ties to Cthulhu. A few humans have established contact with these distant kin and participate in their blood thirsty rituals. A few tales of cross breeds have also surfaced. They are a marine race, unknown in freshwater environments, and globally have cities submerged beneath the waves. They also often employ Shuggoths as servants.
Humans
Descended from apes, this race foolishly thinks it is the rightful owner of the planet it calls Earth. It's even proud of the minuscule advances it has made in its technology. (Recommended for players brand new to the mud or to mudding in general.)
Mi-Go
The Mi-Go, also known as the Fungi from Yuggoth, are an interstellar species. They travel the universe seeking rare and precious minerals that they can mine and ship back to Yuggoth. Their largest base in our system is on Pluto, although they seem to have an outpost or two on earth as well. They are great engineers and scientists and have perfected many medical procedures. There are reports of them shipping living human brains back to Pluto, presumable to work as slaves in their mines.
Shuggoths
Or Shoggoths, depending on pronunciation, are amorphous, shapeshifting blob-like
beings who were genetically engineered by the Elder Things, as a race of servant-tools
until their intelligence evolved and eventually rose up against their masters. Their
physical form is very resilient and allows them to engulf other creatures, often
absorbing their knowledge along with their nutrients. They also imitate other beings
that they absorb.
The Shuggoths are one of the harder races to play due to their physical form not having
many equipment wearing location and having inability to hold weapons, relying on unarmed
combat.
The Great Race of Yith
The Great Race of Yith (also known as Yithians) might be the oldest inhabitants of
Earth. Maybe even before the Old Ones settled here. They are said to be time travelers
and during their high time, they've abducted victims from all eras and places. They've
even predicted their own extinction and most could find new vessels for their mind
somewhere in outer space and far future. They have been transferring their minds to other
bodies for millions of years so they have not always looked like their current form.
The Yithians are extremely hard to play. The constant switching of vessel is complicated
and their own bodies are a lot weaker than other races. They can adapt skills from their
abducted vessels. Don't play this race if you haven't played here before! Don't say you
weren't warned.
Zoogs
Zoogs are native inhabitants of the dreamlands, small blue humanoids with mouths full of sharp teeth. They are renown for their boisterous behavior and sometimes cruel practical jokes. There are legends that bad children who die in the sleep become zoogs. The zoogs certainly do a good job of racing around as hyper active little brats.
