Spawn of Ithaqua

These spawns are the offspring of Ithaqua and a human male or female. Such progeny appears normal in all ways until their true nature is revealed. At their choosing (or when angered), a spawn transforms into a huge, monstrous parody of its former human self, growing in height, with white hair sprouting wolf-like across the body and head, hands turning into long extended claws and nails, the face contorting into a bestial mask with huge fangs within a snarling mouth, and yellow eyes slits of pure evil. Looking more like its Great Old One parent, it is a monstrous parody of its former human self.

Such tainted folk are evidence of Ithaqua’s earthly sojourns, whether in the Great Old One’s true form or that of an avatar. While none can correctly determine the god’s motives, such unions may be requested by a human seeking to join with their god, offering themselves in utter devotion when summoning or desiring Ithaqua’s attention.

While the majority of Ithaqua’s spawn look human, a few are cursed to look more like the Great Old One from birth. These hideous individuals are often turned out and left to fend for themselves in the wilderness, some surviving to infect isolated areas with their alien presence.
