'''Yibb-Tstll''' (''The Patient One'') is an obscure god, said to watch at the center of all time as the universe revolves. Because of this insight, only [[Yog-Sothoth]] is said to be wiser. Its blood, the Black, is a weapon which takes the form of black snowflakes that stick to and smother a victim. The god's touch causes an instant change in the person affected—this change is usually fatal but occasionally brings some benefit. |

Yibb-Tstll (The Patient One) is an obscure god, said to watch at the center of all time as the universe revolves. Because of this insight, only Yog-Sothoth is said to be wiser. Its blood, the Black, is a weapon which takes the form of black snowflakes that stick to and smother a victim. The god's touch causes an instant change in the person affected—this change is usually fatal but occasionally brings some benefit.
Yibb-Tstll is sometimes described as an immobile, dark, tentacled entity with a pulpy, alien head, detached eyes, and large bat wings under which countless Night-gaunts suck black milk from its innumerable breasts.
Notes
Yibb-Tstll makes its major appearance in The Horror at Oakdeene. Yibb-Tstll also appears in The Caller of the Black.
Having a close connection to the Great Old One Bugg-Shash,[1] so should Yibb-Tstll be regarded as a Great Old One - specifically in the Drowners group introduced by Brian Lumley, parasitic alien entities which thrive by vampyrizing the Great Old Ones themselves[2] - though in RPG materials she is classed as "Outer God".[3]
