Fate of Cthulhu is a tabletop RPG published in 2020 by Evil Hat Productions, using their flagship Fate Core system.Among a group of players, at least one of them is a time-traveller from the future, who has travelled to our present using the power of Yog-Sothoth to prevent the rise of one of the Great Old Ones. Along the way, the players have to deal with not only the constant ticking clock, the ripple effects of their actions echoing throughout the timeline and time paradoxes, but also the corrupting influence of the Great Old Ones' power mutating them beyond recognizability, combined with the increasing possibility that the only way out is a Heroic Sacrifice of some sort.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The game can be purchased here and here.

comment
Alternate Timeline: According to the game's rules, the future exists as potential from the perspective of the observer. The example in the same section mentions that this is how a PC sees her mother get killed in a new timeline before she was born after accidentally accelerating the rise of a Great Old One, but doesn't fade from existence, while another example mentions that a Temporal Duplicate she runs into lives a life separate and distinct from her own. Generally speaking, the timeline is resistant to paradoxes.

Body Horror: Later stages of corruption can manifest as this, and the human mind's resistance to Cthulhu's Brown Note example below can still have this windup happening.

Brown Note: Cthulhu himself - "Almost everyone who directly sees, hears, or otherwise experiences Cthulhu literally dies of fright. Even recorded or remote imaging of Cthulhu can trigger an episode". The Necronomicon, which shows up in the "Arrival of Great Cthulhu" and "Shub-Niggurath" campaigns. Downplayed in that simply reading it doesn't raise one's corruption so much as taking the time to delve deep into the text and understand its writings will.
