    A fishstick... I would love to make a campaign around that. The PC's have fought their way to Thoon's location, they're low on Hp and spells, and they final arrive in the evil Thoons throne room. In the center of the room there is a table, on that table there is a plate, and on that plate... an evil almighty fishstick! MWAHAHAHAAA!!!! *cough* sorry... that would be awesome though.

    Santa Claus

    LE Medium Fey

    Psi-like abilities: At-will: Metafaculty, Compression, Overland Flight, Greater Fabricate, Dominate.

    Responsible for enslaving an entire nation of elves to do his bidding, Santa Claus monitors the behavior of all mortal children, filling them with a primal fear. Near the end of every year, he produces an Epic Time Stop effect, freezing time in place so that he may travel with his pack of phrenic fiendish dire reindeer to deliver the products of his slaves' endless toil. Those children who fail to meet his rigorous and unforgiving standards receive shame and a lump of coal, whilst those that submit to his fear-based propaganda and suggestions are rewarded with bribes in the form of toys and candy.
    Ultimately, he plans on controlling the world's population through fear, bribery, and flooding the world with misleading information. He has aims on attaining godhood, seizing the domains of Domination, Toil, Inevitability, and Cookies.

    It's better than actually having a serious answer. There exists a point at which sanity doesn't function, and far far beyond this limit exists Thoon and the other Far Realms entities.

    The fishstick would probably have some ability to turn them into [RACE]s of Thoon. Or Kaortis, whatever.

    Who knows? It could well be just a basic fishstick. I mean, this is the Far Realms we're dealing with. Fishsticks are the least of your worries.

    Off topic, but I have discovered an easy way at any level to defeat Cthulu!

    Step 1: Find something your DM likes, something that he can't take his/her eyes off of.

    Step 2: Use said item to distract your DM, make sure they're attention is completely turned away from Cthulu's stat block (Assuming you're fighting him)

    Step 3: Take out a pensil or pen, rech over and cross out Cthulu's Hp.

    Step 4: Write above is crossed out Hp "-10"

    Congrats you win! (Until your DM smites you or simply erases your pencil marks, this is why pen is better))


    If your DM is not using a stat block, instead give yuour character imunity to insanity (perhaps you're already insane) and enough BAB to hit him.

    IDK, just kinda got bored andthought of this.

    I remember when I first got the MM5 I went crazy about the of Thoons. I thought they were awesome, and made elaborate maps of their lairs and the like.

    I then realized that my group(with which I was with for only a week) was level 2. Darn.

    No one knows exactly what the far realms hold, so an all powerful fishstick makes sense to me. Plus, you could choke on it! That's deadly to me.

    This hideous pseudonatural duck has an insatiable bloodthirst. It wields a leek, which in its cruel feathertips functions as a +5 unholy chaotic vorpal longsword. These foul waterfowl haunt lakes of black ooze, blood, gibbering pudding, or other unsavory substances within the amoebic sea that is the Far Realm, preying upon any foolish enough to stumble upon them.

    Nah, Iku Rex has a point. If the party goes into the Far Realms, and faces Thoon, you switch rulesets on them without telling them to the Toon rules.

    That would be really cruel.

    EDIT: Or hilarious, depending on the group. I guess my group would pull it off hilariously.

    Thoon is sort of like... If you took a sunbeam and passed it through a lemon waterfall, sprinkled it with left, then shaved off the resulting whispers. That is sort of what Thoon is like, but nothing like that at all.
