This god has a scaled, elongated body, a lizard's head and maw, and taloned lizard claws. It also has 200 tentacles projecting from its body that give it the ability to sense all things around it. It is able to strike twice per round and also attack magically.
At will, it can teleport anywhere in the PMP.
<e>
Hastur regenerates 5 HP per melee round, and can summon 2-20 Byakhee
to aid it in battle. It cannot be magically controlled. Creatures that
are able to fly naturally will never attack Hastur, even if controlled.
Any being trying to attack the god must make a saving throw against fear.
Hastur is half-brother to 
,
and like him Hastur has been imprisoned by the star-shaped Elder Sign.
He lies in a crypt at the bottom of Lake Hali near the alien city of
Carcosa.
Hastur exists partly on the PMP (and this
part is imprisoned in the crypt) and partly on the Elemental Plane of Air
(thus he is immune to cold and the vacuum of space).
Hastur is never more than partially on the PMP
and is therefore not completely solid. This accounts for much of his great
size.
Any time the name "Hastur" is spoken, there is a 25 percent chance that
Hastur will hear and send 1-4 Byakhee to slay
the speaker.
If the Byakhee are defeated, there is a 25 percent chance that Hastur
himself will appear to destroy the blasphemer.
