Welcome, investigators. Please close the door behind you – strange things are howling in the wind tonight. Today we want to introduce you to Dr. Clawstone, another ally in our endless struggle against the twisted lurking monsters that threaten the very existence of our world. Dr. Clawstone used to do… let’s say, unorthodox research for the American army. After unearthing a mysterious artifact of unknown origins that he dubs “Tillinghast,” Dr. Clawstone discovered a new type of energy fields that could affect biological organisms.
The Tillinghast proved to be useful when strange bubbling creatures started to leak through the walls of Dr. Clawstone’s library. He could destroy those abnormalities using the artifact, now turned into a weapon. The veil that blinds humanity in blissful ignorance lifted that day for Clawstone. And when he heard of sightings of energy fields similar to the ones created with the Tillinghast, he decided that he could not stand idle anymore while the Earth is in such grave danger.
Dr. Clawstone’s Tillinghast is basically a means to contain a strange type of energy. It allows him to liberate this energy in quick bursts, equivalent to the shot of a weapon for all purposes. These bursts can hurt all the creatures of the Myths; we estimate that it might be a type of energy from their own dimensions, hence its ability to hurt them. Dr. Clawstone can also release this energy in a controlled manner to create a protective barrier around his body. This barrier protects him while causing damage to anything in direct contact with it – although by some unknown mechanisms it draws from Clawstone’s stamina.
Dr. Clawstone joins the Detective as the second character available in Lovecraft’s Untold Stories, the action RPG with roguelike elements that releases tomorrow (June 22) on Steam Early Access. We will be waiting here for your mission reports. Good luck out there, investigators – looks like you will going to need it.
