Description To sum up; Yog-Sothoth is subspace, it's the reason ghosts are a thing and Randolph Carter was talking to himself but not in the way he thought he was.

I'm working on the next bestiary page but it's been a while so have the disorganized scribblings of some mad-person (i.e. Me) in the meantime. I hope it's actually sort of legible.

what is the Tindalos barrier?.


speaking of that, how would you envision the Hounds of Tindalos?, other than being of angles, what would these creatures actually be made of and what is their purpose?.

The Tindalos Barrier is where the angular space-time continuum is bumping up against our curved space-time. From Yog's perspective it's physically right next to him, from a time-traveler's perspective it exists at the beginning and end of time simultaneously.

The Hounds look like abstract sculptures of a quadruped made of harshly angled black metal and surrounded by thick smoke that moves in strange patterns. 

My current theory is that they're something like universal antibodies, chasing down things that threaten to breach the barrier and contaminate Tindalos space-time. Perhaps Yog-Sothoth has similar antibodies that likewise hunt intruders from Tindalos? Maybe you could even escape a hunting Hound by summoning a "Hound of Yog-Sothoth"?

I wonder if Yog-Sothoth hounds are spheres or collections of bubbles?

Also, in Tindalos, are planets cubes? An angular spacetime is a strange thing to imagine indeed.

Yeah, they'd look like a series of fused spheres.

Oh good question! Maybe instead of simple shapes the larger something gets and the more the forces of angular space can act on it the more complex they get? This would end with planets looking like jangled angular fractal shapes.

The Arilou are from *Above* while the Orz are from *Below*. The Arilou are always *jumping in front* and this makes Orz *frumple*.
