Plots

Mythos Source

Ithaqua first appeared in The Thing that Walked on the Wind (1933), written by August Derleth.

Errata

If a non-weather environment card is in play and a new Mythos card is drawn with a weather environmental effect, all functions of the card are followed except for the environmental effect. The card is then discarded.

At the start of battle, each investigator must roll one die separately for each item the investigator has.
