There are only 2 ways to become an Eldritch Horror. Either through a Traitor curator summoning you with an uplink or the Spawn Eldritch Horror random event. You must have the Eldritch Horror preference toggled on (use the verb for special candidacy in the Preferences tab) and you may be selected.

As an Eldritch Horror you start off with the basic abilities and tools.  

You're a freshly spawned Eldritch Horror. First thing is to quickly reach a ventilation system or use the hiding ability that allows you to go under certain objects and get out of sight. These abilities can also be used later on to sneak on your targets stealthily. To steal a soul, first you activate a "Seek soul" ability on your HUD, which opens a radial menu offering up to 4 targets. Choose one of them, and they'll become your selected target. You can only eat soul of your current target which means you have to track them down. To help with that, you immediately acquire a pinpointer on your HUD that will point itself to your target. You start with increased mobility. While not as fast as a running human, you are small enough to fit in vents and even through airlocks!

Once inside a host, you can begin absorbing their soul by clicking on the Consume Soul Ability.  

Keep in mind, you can only mutate while outside of a host. Most abilities cost chemicals to use. You can see the amount of chemicals you possess on your HUD. You generate chemicals at a slow rate whilst inside an alive host. As a small note, you also regenerate your health while inside a host.

|Can be used to revive your host if they are dead. This ability will require your maximum chemical reserve and will leave you and your host very vulnerable after use. After being revived the Host will be zapped and takes minor oxy damage (They have to catch their breath)

|Turns your body near invisible! Great for sneaking up on a potential host.

Remember: Any kind of attack breaks the invisibility instantly. This ability is a direct upgrade from the regular Hide ability that you start with.  

While pressing the mutate Hud you can also find upgrades in the menu. Unlike abilities, these are passive buffs that will change how your abilities work, how you react to certain objects, and make you a lot more versatile and lethal.  

* '''Electrocharged tentacle''' - 3 soul points - Upgrades your starting ability to knock someone over into shocking them, knocking them unconscious for a little while so they don't see you crawling into their head.

* '''Regenerative skin''' - 1 soul point - Lets you regenerate your own health over time without need for host. Can mitigate the effects of unsuitable atmospheres, such as plasma floods.

* '''Reflective fluids''' - 1 soul point - Hosts will not be alerted when you exit them and you'll be covered in reflective fluid that makes you invisible. If invisibility is unlocked, it'll activate when you exit a host.

The Horror is extremely vulnerable when outside of a host. Try baiting it out then smashing it down. One can also be surgically removed out of your head via the organ manipulation surgery. Try to keep it away from vents by pulling or pushing it away. Remember to weld vents inside the surgery room while trying to remove a Horror from a victim's head or they will easily leave the body in the middle of the surgery and go into the vents, also don't forget to have a partner to watch over you as the Eldritch Horror can easily slip into you while you're conducting the surgery.

The Eldritch Horror can also be created through the use of a Traitor curator with their uplink. After this is done you are '''Mindslaved''' to the curator. You must follow all their '''commands to the dime'''. if they tell you to die in a ring of fire, '''''<s>you make sure to put up a show</s>.''''' As your Traitor's sidekick, you ''can'' (hopefully) provide a very useful and versatile ally, being able to heal them, equip them with a deadly weapon, control other people and more.  

The Traitor curator also will get a special horn that will automatically recall you. Be warned if the horn is used by anyone else other than your original master it will break after use.
