Dust of Ibn-Ghazi, AKA Powser of Ibn-Ghazi, Dust of Seeing, Witness of the Unseen, Compound of Perception
 
 
 
==Description==
 
 
 
A silvery, talc-like substance, identifiable with a successful Cthulhu Mythos roll, that sticks to the skin like graphite imparting a "greasy" feeling; the powder is easily ashed away.
 
 
 
The Powder of Ibn-Ghazi can momentarily render invisible creatures partially visible, and immaterial creatures semi-solid, when dusted on the target by blowing it through a tube or sprinkling it over the target.
 
 
 
 
 
==Quotes==
 
* "Those without the telescope saw only an instant's flash of grey cloud — a cloud about the size of a moderately large building — near the top of the mountain. Curtis, who held the instrument, dropped it with a piercing shriek into the ankle-deep mud of the road. He reeled, and would have crumpled to the ground had not two or three others seized and steadied him. All he could do was moan half-inaudibly." — H.P. Lovecraft, The Dunwich Horror"
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
==Heresies and Controversies==
 
<!-- Optional.  This is a good place to include non-canon and controversial aspects of the creature's mythos.  Suggested Alternative Theories include:  Derleth's elemental scheme; pseudo-science interpretation; "fanon" interpretations; unofficial humorous or eccentric versions; identification with "Real Life" mythological, religious, folklore, natural, and historical phenomena; rumor and speculation contribute some flexibility and ambiguity to the mythos. * Alternative_theory.  ([[source]])-->
 
 
 
 
 
==Keeper Notes==
 
<!-- Optional. Suggestions for using this tome/artifact in the CoC RPG, and in fan-fiction. -->
