Habits

  • Taking notes (this looks like surgery on a squealing, blinking lion’s mane mushroom)
  • 3D-printing a squiggly tool that will grow into a bubble-shaped “house”
  • Quietly spinning in a circle, absorbing trace gasses (“eating”)

Dogma

  • Obsessive empiricism Filled Pip Filled Pip Filled Pip Filled Pip Pip Pip
  • Data-driven realpolitik Filled Pip Filled Pip Filled Pip Pip Pip Pip

Attacks

  • Chromatophoric laser, 3d4 damage.
  • Limbic excruciator, If more than one mi-go is present, then one of them is a “psychologist” who carries a limbic excruciator, d6 +d8 damage, plus non-bug sapients within a 10-M radius must pass a 7+ WIL/resist other check or experience horrible pain such that they cannot act next round.

Powers

  • Ally CRB097
  • Astrogate CRB045
  • Augur CRB049
  • Bioengineer CRB049
  • Detect CRB099
  • Flight (free, slow).
  • Heal (standard) – Burn X GRT and treat a person: that person regains X+4 HEA.
  • Idiohack CRB098
  • Jack CRB045
  • Tack CRB043
  • Telepathy (free).

Gear

  • Each mi-go carries biologically based scientific, utility, and entertainment equipment (“goop-tools”) worth a total of 4d100 gl to an Archivist particularly obsessed with Yuggothi bioengineering. Mostly, it seems like a belt/web of disgusting Cronenbergian fungal/crusty sacs of crap.
  • Chromatophoric wristband-lasers sell for 600 gl each.
  • Limbic excruciators sell for 800 +3d30 gl each but are illegal to possess.

Story notes

Mi-go are not outright hostile; they exist, much like the Co., to plunder the secrets of even more advanced civilizations throughout the void. Mi-go can easily translate Spin.
