Requests for more Lovecraft Monsters for Holmes Basic

I made a post a couple days ago about Lovecraft Monsters for Holmes Basic; and I'm in the works of making a followup to that post with some less humanoid monsters.

Does anyone have any requests to see their favorite eldritch abomination statted up for Basic? Or would anyone simply like to share what their favorite monster from the Cthulhu mythos is?

  1. I need to go find and check out your previous post. One of my favorite beasties is The Colour Out of Space.

  2. You can't beat shoggoths. I am also fond of the dark young of Shub Nuggurath from the Robert Bloc story.

  3. Is the scariest HPL creation August Derleth? Discuss...

  6. Chris Holmes, you and Jon Hook covered what I'd've pitched in -- The Color Out Of Space was the first HPL story I read, and set a certain benchmark for me.

    And also, Tristan and I know each other, so he'd've thought I was unwell if I didn't digress or say something off the mark...

  7. Thanks Jon. I have a large collection of Derleth for sale if you're interested.

  8. Chris Holmes Definitely gonna write up shoggoths. I'm gonna have to read Notebook found in a Deserted House before I stat up the dark young, but hopefully I have enough time today to get that reading in as well
