Dimensional Shamblers explained

Name: VIPPER 2011-04-15 20:23

The knowledge of dimensional shamblers is carefully shrouded in protective lies, and know that by learning this knowledge, you will uncover yourself from this protection.

Nyarlathotep dreams many dreams apart from our one – dreams so terrifyingly alien, they are nightmares without end, yet these dreams are separated by veils just as terrifyingly thin to those who knows how to part them and cross them. Few humans can cross them, and only the mad ones can part them, but those humans who stray too far, can find themselves lost on the other side of the veil, sometimes trapped forever. These are called dimensional shamblers, and spoken of as zombies, to protect the listener from the horrible truth.

A human can cross the veil by venturing into a place where the veil is thin, and getting in touch with the other side of it, through reading extradimensional discoveries (through documents) experiences, and sensations. However, the consciousness of extradimensional beings within the other dimension is a very strong catalyst, even from a distance.

Dimensional shamblers are lost, and with the desperate instinct of those drowning, they attempt to grab a hold of another conscious human in other to drag themselves back into the normal dimension. However, more often than not, this will fail, and their victim will be dragged into their dimension instead, becoming trapped along with them as one of them.

The physical appearance of a dimensional shambler is a perfectly normal (though distressed and maddened) human being, but as its appearance and personification can cause a bond strong enough to drag another human over, the human psyche protects the watcher somewhat, by causing a psychosis that blur the facial features into a blank slate where the face would be. This effect only works at a distance, though.

To an outsider, the victim of a dimensional shambler is that it turns into one of them, by losing its human features.

Some shamblers carry weapons in order to protect themselves, from creatures as well as humans, but some are determined enough to bludgeon any humans into a helpless state, and try to drag themselves out over their dying body.

I must confess that I have tricked you, reader. You see, I have sent this very information from the wi-fi laptop I carried with me as I crossed over. I hope you understand - it is my only means to cross back into your dimension again, and if I fail, and you start to hear strange noises outside your window tonight, well, at least I tried.

Hey, 'sup. I'm a squadmate of >>1.

What happened? Well, I was biking down to the convenience store for some Worcestershire sauce because I was gonna make hamburgers. When I got to the intersection, some old dumbass who was probably a drunk plowed into me. Last thing I remember was my head hitting a wall and splitting open. It was the worst thing I've ever felt.

A second later, I was in this shitty apartment with a black ball at the end. I had to sit there for a while just to get my composure. That was when >>1 began to "scan" in. It's hard to describe but it was like his body was being printed out in 3D. I dunno how he died, but when he came in, his cock was out and there were bruises on his neck.

So, it turns out we've been brought back from death to hunt aliens that will destroy our world. But the thing is, I don't think they brought >>1 back all the way. He talks to himself when we go on missions, and cries for no reason. He didn't know how to use the guns and had to be shown, and he forgot several times. I bet that black sphere gave him fuckin' brain damage when it brought him back. I worry he's gonna turn his gun on us one day.

Anyway, I'm asking you to be nice to >>1. We already took heavy losses on the last mission, and his mind can't take much more strain.

Peace.
