Cthulhu's Skills

Poison

Button Notation:	p
BMO Notation:	p

Poison Dice are worth negative points. If you keep one of your own Poison Dice, you subtract its full size from your score. If you capture an opponent’s Poison Die, subtract half its size.

Shadow

Button Notation:	horizontal line above number, s
BMO Notation:	s

Shadow Dice are normal in all respects, except that they can not make Power Attacks. Instead, they can make inverted Power Attacks, called Shadow Attacks.

Shadow Attack: Use one of your Shadow Dice to capture one of your opponent’s dice. The target die must show a value equal to or greater than the attacking die, but within its range.

For example, a Shadow 12 showing 7 can capture any value between 7 and 12.

Shadow Dice can make Skill Attacks normally.

Twin

Button Notation:	Two numbers in a figure-eight frame
BMO Notation:	( , )

Twin dice are played as two dice that are rolled together and added together.

For example, a Twin 8 is represented as (8,8) and is treated as a single die that can roll values between 2 and 16. The two 8s are rolled as one, captured as one, and scored as one die worth 16 points. When they first appeared, Twin Dice always had the same number repeated twice. Twin Dice with unequal numbers also appeared in later expansions.
