Brown Note Being	comment	When this being sings the blues, people get hurt, which is bad because it can't stop the music. Some quality intrinsic to this being's nature is harmful to those who sense it, named after the proverbial Brown Note whose sound triggers an audience to spontaneously lose control of their bowels. One sight or sound from this creature turns you to stone, whitens your hair, ages you, leaves you paralyzed, blind, obsessed, insane, suicidal, or dead. Your eyeballs burst into flame, your eye color changes, or some other change to pupil or iris. Whatever the Brown Note effect is, it must be automatic, not a spell, device, or voluntary power. This trope is Older Than Feudalism, since it appears in the Classical Mythology (example: Our Sirens Are Different) of the Greeks and Romans, and also The Bible (example: Angelic Abomination). More often than not, these characters or beings will be some variation of He Who Must Not Be Seen, with their true appearance deliberately kept a mystery as if it were the work's way of telling you to take its word for it, because you — the audience — do not want to make the mistake of laying eyes upon them. This can be a good way of preserving the being's "Nothing Is Scarier" factor inherent with not being able to see or even get close to it, especially if the work can't figure out how to reveal it without ruining it. In games, such beings can increase difficulty. Sometimes a damaging being has a curative counterpart, whose presence is intrinsically helpful and healing. This trope is reserved for beings and not microbes. Occasionally an afflicted character might fit this trope, who has a terrible uncontrolled power such as: Touch of Death, Deadly Gaze, Taken for Granite, Midas Touch, Mind-Control Music, Energy Absorption, Lovecraftian Superpower, Kiss of Death, Poisonous Person, Life Drinker, Walking Wasteland, Walking Techbane, or Reality Warper. See also Enemy to All Living Things. This is a Sister Trope to Eldritch Abomination since they overlap but not always. Not every Eldritch Abomination causes a Brown Note. Not every being who causes a Brown Note is an abomination; other causes are curses, infections, mutations, The Corruption, or types of undead. Some fairy types can cause a Brown Note, as can some fantasy races with unknown, but not unknowable motives. A being whose true form cannot be grasped will cause this, if they don't take A Form You Are Comfortable With. This trope is a catchall for Brown Note creatures who are never identified.

Brown Note Being / int_13679a09	comment	Ward introduces us to Mama Mathers, whose power allows her to inflict hallucinations in whatever sense you perceive her by (see her and she can make you see illusions, hear her voice and she can make you hear things etc.) with the effects growing more powerful the more exposure you have to her. While she can consciously affect the type and severity of hallucinations she gives you (her most severe ones causing you to collapse on the floor screaming) the effect that lets her infect your mind is constantly active whether she's aware of you or not. This even carries over to parahuman senses (scriers who "see" her get a Poke in the Third Eye and precogs who try to anticipate her then find her appearing in and corrupting any other visions of the future they get).

Brown Note Being / int_1367cea0	comment	In Worm, the Simurgh has a psychic aura that causes insanity in anyone that is exposed to it for too long. It's victims first experience it as a high pitched note similar to a post-explosion ringing in the ears, but over time the single note starts to gain some variation, and will eventually form words. It is shown to affect animals too, as one unlucky person caught in the aura finds a pet cockatoo that is slowly and methodically banging its head against the cage to the point that its cracking its own skull. Oh, and the really bad news? The insanity aura is only a side-effect of what the Simurgh is actually doing; using its immensely powerful precognitive abilities to model possible futures for everyone in its range, analyse which of them are capable of doing immense damage to the world at some point in the future, and set them on the course to do it without them even knowing and without necessarily driving them mad.

Brown Note Being / int_23185c00	comment	Taken: Due to the aliens' Psychic Powers, people in close proximity to them suffer serious health problems and often die as a result. The first sign is typically a Psychic Nosebleed. In "Beyond the Sky", Sally Clarke develops one after spending only a few minutes in John's presence. It eventually becomes apparent why the aliens are so interested in the Keys family, continually abducting Russell, Jesse and Charlie over the course of almost 50 years, because they are immune to the harmful effects that typically come with prolonged exposure. In "Beyond the Sky", Russell is the only one of the ten men aboard the B-17 bomber who were abducted on August 1, 1944 to survive more than three years after being exposed. The immunity of the Keys family is crucial to the aliens' attempts to create a viable hybrid.

They look like hideous translucent corpses stuffed full of writhing maggots, their body temperature is high enough to cause third-degree burns, their speech is loud and piercing enough to pop your eardrums, and their body odor triggers projectile vomiting. It's frankly an astonishing feat that the author manages to successfully cast them as The Woobie of the story.

Cthulhu's apparent and actual position don't line up, which make combat strikes against "him" chancy.

Compounding things is that the glimpse was through his wizard sight, meaning it was completely unfiltered and he will be unable to forget it, ever. The only thing he can do is get to a safe space and deliberately expose himself to the memory over and over to desensitize himself. It takes the better part of a day and only makes the memory tolerable.

Brown Note Being / int_42ffb88e	comment	SCP Foundation: SCP-053 ("The Young Girl") is a three-year-old girl with a perfectly ordinary appearance and personality. Yet for some reason, any human being over the age of three who spends longer than ten minutes in 053's presence becomes overwhelmed with Unstoppable Rage and immediately tries to kill her in the goriest and most violent way possible, to the point of murdering anyone else in the room with them to get to her faster — only to die of massive heart attacks if they actually succeed in hurting the child, whose Healing Factor instantly kicks in and lets her regenerate. Worse yet, SCP-053 herself doesn't know why people keep attacking her and is implied to have gotten used to it. SCP-597 ("The Mother Of Them All") is a Blob Monster covered in nipples that compels all mammals near it to start suckling. If they suckle for too long, they turn into toothless manchildren who simultaneously regard SCP-597 as their mother and want to have sex with it. Inverted with the legendary SCP-682 ("The Hard-To-Destroy Reptile"). It's a bizarre lizard-like creature and Omnicidal Maniac with a single desperate urge: kill every single human it sees. Why? Because we are Brown Note Beings to him: human beings inspire such utter, uncontrollable horror and disgust in 682 that completely obliterating them is the only way he can feel even slightly better. SCP-1128 ("Aquatic Horror") is a particularly dangerous example, as simply knowing its full appearance is enough to make it capable of pulling you into its realm and eating you whenever you come into contact with water. SCP-2662 ("cthulhu f'UCK OFF!") is a Cthulhumanoid who makes a small percentage of people who spend time around him become his mad cultists. He finds it really annoying. One interesting story that combines two entries subverts the trope. On a whim, Foundation scientists pair SCP-053 with SCP-682 to see what happens when a humanoid Brown Note Being meets a creature that sees humans themselves as Brown Note Beings. After a tense few minutes, it becomes clear that 682 isn't repulsed by 053, and she in turn feels safe around him. The two become buddies almost immediately, with 682 even letting 053 color on his back with crayons. It's never explained why they're able to bear one another's company, but other stories imply that each considers the other their Only Friend: when 053 has her picture taken with an SCP that produces a photo showing the subject's deepest desire, she's depicted happily riding on 682's back.

Brown Note Being / int_43576f5	comment	Supernatural: At the end of Season 2, when all of Azazel's children meet up, they start comparing their powers: super strength, mind control, etc. Then one woman tells Sam Winchester to stop angsting about his death visions and says it could be worse. Her uncontrolled power was killing people she touched accidentally, stopping their hearts, which killed her girlfriend apparently. The Season 4 premiere "Lazurus Rising" revolves around trying to identify the creature who resurrected Dean. A psychic trying to view it had her eyes burned out just glimpsing its face. It turned out that the brown note was a side-effect of the creature's nature and not intentional. The creature in question was Castiel, an Angelic Abomination, but not a hostile one. He usually limits his powers by occupying a willing human vessel whenever he visits Earth to avoid having this effect on humans. Later seasons establish that the mere presence of one of the four Archangels or one of the four Horsemen can cause catastrophic damage over a wide area. For example, the arrival of Raphael causes electrical blackouts on the entire east coast of the United States.

Brown Note Being / int_68237790	comment	Pathfinder: Much like in D&D, nymphs are so stunningly beautiful that anyone who looks directly at one risks going permanently blind. The game supports encounters with Cthulhu whose non-Euclidian are not wholly in the Material plane. Cthulhu's apparent and actual position don't line up, which make combat strikes against "him" chancy. The only way to be sure of aim is to risk sanity using the True Seeing spell, which forces a Will save versus instant and permanent insanity as you are suddenly forced to grasp Cthulhu's true form. The Qlippoth — primordial spiritual entities that are Made of Evil and Chaos — have a "Horrific Appearance" ability that threatens physical and mental harm in those who witness it. The effect varies by qlippoth type, but the most powerful can cause witnesses to transform into qlippoth themselves.

Brown Note Being / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: Seeing a human's ghost causes the viewer to suddenly age 10 years, since 1st/2nd edition Advanced D&D. Anyone seeing a nymph is permanently blinded. If the nymph is nude or removes her clothing, the viewer dies, since 1st/2nd edition Advanced D&D. The Obyriths, the primordial race of demons spawned by the Abyss eons before life arose on the Material Plane, tend to be this due to how twisted, horrifying and alien their forms are to more recent lifeforms. Their bizarre, horrifyingly-alien appearances grant the Obyriths an ability called "Form of Madness". Their presence is established to be an affront to all five senses, which causes anyone who so much as senses them to be afflicted by an oftentimes permanent type of insanity (phobias, feelings of being consumed by insects, etc). Pale Night, the so-called Mother of Demons, is ancient even among the surviving Obyriths. Pale Night's "Truth Behind the Veil" rule means that anyone who gets a good look at her true form — normally hidden behind a full-body robe implied to imposed on her by reality itself as a side effect of how alien she is to it — must make an immediate (very high) saving throw; success means that the character's mind refuses to comprehend what they're looking at. Those who fail die outright, and if revived remember nothing of what they saw beyond a feeling of sheer horror. Even some incredibly powerful forces of Good cannot be viewed safely by mortals. The Book of Exalted Deeds sourcebook mentions Zaphikiel, the greatest of the Hebdomad and the ruler of Mount Celestia. Only the gods themselves and the other Hebdomad can look upon him safely; anyone else who does so is said to be consumed by his overwhelming radiant energy and destroyed utterly. (Or maybe ascended to a higher form; it depends on who you ask.) Ravenloft: Ghosts in this game setting have a life draining affect. The touch of lichs and ghouls are paralyzing. Deadly Gaze and other Brown Note curses are common, particularly for main characters. Many freaks within the Carnival were cursed and twisted by the presence of Isolde, the mysterious lord of the Carnival, due to the curse placed on her when she was drawn into the Demiplane of Dread. Desmond LaRouche was cursed into becoming half a flesh golem. Those seeing his face must do a fear check to see whether they fall into terror. Ivana Boritsi and her Ermordenung, in Borca, have poisonous touch.

It's said that its form is so blasphemous that reality itself refuses to show it (just like Pale Night). The Unseen is uncannily good at hunting werewolf packs, to the point that some suggest it's a weapon created by a werewolf-hating Eldritch Abomination. About the only way you learn of its presence is when your guts spill out of a seemingly spontaneous slice in your flesh. Any being from Mage: The Awakening's Abyss is an Eldritch Abomination which warps sanity and reality around it, but not in a good way.

Brown Note Being / int_714b2a93	comment	Parahumans: In Worm, the Simurgh has a psychic aura that causes insanity in anyone that is exposed to it for too long. It's victims first experience it as a high pitched note similar to a post-explosion ringing in the ears, but over time the single note starts to gain some variation, and will eventually form words. It is shown to affect animals too, as one unlucky person caught in the aura finds a pet cockatoo that is slowly and methodically banging its head against the cage to the point that its cracking its own skull. Oh, and the really bad news? The insanity aura is only a side-effect of what the Simurgh is actually doing; using its immensely powerful precognitive abilities to model possible futures for everyone in its range, analyse which of them are capable of doing immense damage to the world at some point in the future, and set them on the course to do it without them even knowing and without necessarily driving them mad. Ward introduces us to Mama Mathers, whose power allows her to inflict hallucinations in whatever sense you perceive her by (see her and she can make you see illusions, hear her voice and she can make you hear things etc.) with the effects growing more powerful the more exposure you have to her. While she can consciously affect the type and severity of hallucinations she gives you (her most severe ones causing you to collapse on the floor screaming) the effect that lets her infect your mind is constantly active whether she's aware of you or not. This even carries over to parahuman senses (scriers who "see" her get a Poke in the Third Eye and precogs who try to anticipate her then find her appearing in and corrupting any other visions of the future they get).

If they see enough such beings, they will go temporarily or permanently insane. Some Mythos entities are so horrific (e.g. deities like Cthulhu, Azathoth, etc.) that a person can be driven permanently mad by seeing them just once. The Secrets of San Francisco sourcebook has a scenario, "The Colour of His Eyes", where man assembles an alien looking telescope, uses it, and then has a Colour Out Of Space (a form of sentient, malevolent light) trapped in his eyes. Thereafter, he drains the energy from (and kills) anything he looks at, including a nurse caretaker.

Brown Note Being / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000: In some depictions, the Emperor of Mankind (a living deity) is so powerful that most mortals cannot gaze upon his true form (he occasionally disguises himself, both to hide his identity and to protect onlookers). Those who attempt to either die, are blinded by the power inherent in his visage (as happens to Astropaths in the ceremony that links their souls to His), or else their minds simply are unable to process what they are seeing. Even those who can safely look at him (generally those who are extremely powerful or have strong wills) see him as somewhat indistinct, with his features constantly changing and shifting. Some of his sons, the Primarchs, inherited this ability. Blanks are this to psykers, who see them as a "hole in the Warp", and ordinary people generally feel disturbed in their presence (although depending on the source, a blank is either a person born without a soul, or just a person with a mutation that gives some humans psychic powers). And then there's the daemons of the Warp, who react very badly to blanks, their temporary physical existence weakening in their presence. Necron Pariahs have an effect similar to the blanks, inspiring horror and dread in living beings. Oddly, there is one case of a blank causing a similar effect in Pariahs themselves.

Namely, removing the visor of his helmet and forcing people to stare at his face, which induces immediate death in any normal human. It's never shown what it contains, but it's implied to be something like a nightmare. Unfortunately for him, Judge Dredd is not a normal human, and while momentarily stunned, immediately recovers and proceeds to punch his fist right through Fear's head.

Brown Note Being / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: In "The Robots of Death", robophobia is defined as an intense fear of robots caused by their lack of human facial expression or body language; those afflicted find robots to be like the walking dead. The Weeping Angels are an inversion of this trope, since humans looking at them causes the monster to turn to stone. Downplayed since the stone effect is temporary. The Silence are creatures whose presence causes amnesia, are a subversion, and downplayed as you forget them as soon as you look away.

Brown Note Being / int_d90c23a9	comment	Two particular Archfiends in the Star Wars Paranormalities Trilogy are so dangerous from just their presence alone that the Forceless Collective had to take special precautions with their possession: Subverted with Stythanyx. While Stythanyx himself apparently doesn't do anything to affect the senses of other beings, the Hands — which are considered psychic extensions of him despite being four separate beings — are a different story. If anyone has seen all four of the Hands within their lifetime, they will be afflicted with a curse that will cause them to experience hallucinations and die within four days unless Stythanyx is killed. Unfortunately, even seeing merely an image of a Hand counts as a curse point. Emperor Valkor made a point to only possess Stythanyx and just let him control the Hands to avoid spreading the curse to the rest of the Collective hive mind. Xixixix is a being whose power not only drove a planet insane from their presence alone, they have driven themself insane too. Short-term exposure can result in hallucinations, while long-term exposure from being on the same planet as them can turn beings incredibly eccentric at best. Unusually, Xixixix is the only Archfiend stated to have been severed from the Forceless hive mind and abandoned to avoid driving the rest of the Collective insane, making them more of a feral bioweapon than a feared general like the other Archfiends.

This has a Nothing Is Scarier effect, but it is justified since viewing the monsters drains a game character's sanity. The main monster is the Shadow, an Eldritch Abomination on a mission, don't even touch the Meat Moss it leaves behind on its trail. Other sanity draining creatures are the otherworldly, water-dwelling Kaernk.

Exposure to one of these lifeforms caused permanent psychological damage to members of the Pennsylvania State Police. A character name Eddie described rage at the horror of trespass, and a blind need to kill the alien creature. Character memories of the encounter felt real in a dream-like way and traumatic. Ironically enough, the trope is inverted as well; the same alien lifeforms view humans as confusing, horrible beings, and the most we ever get into the mindset of one is to wonder why these incomprehensible beings are beating it to death.
