"Ia Yog-Sothoth! O Keeper of the Gate who art the Gate, O Keeper of the Key who art the Key, who walks between worlds and across centuries, I call upon thee to deliver me forth from this place!"
[ Type : ] lloigor [ Portfolio : ] planar travel [ Disposition : ] neutral [ Offerings Desired : ] magickal objects [ Spirit Point Cost : ] fifty to one hundred [ Requirements to Invoke : ] worship Yog-Sothoth, have at least 60 points among elder lore skill and cosmology skill or have been in the presence of Yog-Sothoth [ General Information : ] Yog-Sothoth is the undisputed master of planar travel. Visualize a location you have knowledge of, and, with a successful invocation, he will instantly transport you there (as well as your friends and followers, and sometimes random bystanders), no matter the distance. If you haven't visualized a known location, or if, for some reason, even Yog-Sothoth cannot transport you there, the Great Altar of Eris is used as a fall-back location. Yog-Sothoth has also been known to appropriate sacrifices that are spherical in general form -- thought to be pleasing to the lloigor because of their similarity to the elements of its usual manifest form of choice -- by transporting the invoker to (and some say, creating for hir) a personal microcosmic space within the Exoma, attuned to the individual's own nature.
This huge conglomereration of reflective silvery spheres, hovering in midair. The thing's surroundings hum with the echoes of its power. Despite the smooth featurelessness of the spheres, there is a clear sense of cold, deep intelligence in it. This is the form presently taken by the lloigor called Yog-Sothoth, the Gate and the Key, Tawil at'Umr,Devourer of Souls. This elder thing is said to have a unique relationship with the planes, being related somehow to their inherent structure or arrangement. It looks about hirty-four and a half dimins across. It is in good shape.
Its limbs are named large sphere, tiny sphere, huge sphere, midsized sphere, small sphere, big sphere, little sphere and great sphere. Yog- Sothoth was created by Chaos, who wishes to credit H.P. Lovecraft as inspiring this work; the source code was last updated Sun Dec 06 23:04:21 2009. The lloigor race was created by Lost Souls; the source code was last updated Sun Jul 12 19:29:59 2009.
Yog-Sothoth, like the mudtext would have you believe, is capable of teleporting you around. This is done by first 'visualizing' a memorized location, then invoking or offering something to the Sphered One. Crystal balls or other precious magickal items will often send you into your own personal microcosm. Yog-Sothoth will also bring nearby npcs and players with you... which can result in a lot of fun and creative hunting.
Please note that removing specific NPCs(i.e. shopkeepers, guild masters) from their set locations is generally not condoned.
