Mythos Source
The name Yog-Sothoth first appears in The Case of Charles Dexter Ward (1927), written by H.P. Lovecraft. Actual details of his attributes appear in The Dunwich Horror (1928), also written by H.P. Lovecraft.
Errata
The difficulty increase caused by Yog-Sothoth's power The Key And The Gate does not affect the number of clue tokens required to seal a gate. The power only requires an extra success when attempting to close a gate.
