AMOEBIC CRAWLER
Tortured ooze-monsters spawned in the far realm, amoebic crawlers exist only to spread madness and pain.
Amoebic crawlers are spawned in places where the Far Realm touches the world. They live their pain-filled, pathetic little lives searching for victims to torment and wrecking their surroundings.
Twisted and Insane: These creatures - being completely insane and only semi-sentient - cannot be reasoned with, trained, or made to work with other creatures. This doesn't stop ambitious creatures such as xivorts and bullywugs, who put them in convenient places and use them as unwitting guard beasts.
Always Hungry: Amoebic crawlers have an unholy hunger that can never be slaked. They are constantly searching for food (their favorite being rotting flesh), which some creatures use to their advantage; using rancid meat to lure them into useful positions.

This is a Lovecraftain paragon path for the Mage class from Heroes of the Fallen Lands. It focuses mainly on de-buffing.
WARP CHANNELER
Prerequisite: Mage class.
Warp channelers are mages who draw their power from the maddening blackness of the Far Realm. Their path is painful and fraught with danger and madness, so it is followed only by the over-ambitious or the insane.
Warp Reality (11th level): Whenever you spend an action point, you can teleport 1d4 squares.
Spreading Madness (11th Level): Enemies within 3 squares of you take a -2 penalty to will defense.
Spreading Horror (11th level): Whenever you drop a non-minion enemy to 0 hit points, all enemies that saw them die take a -1 penalty to defenses for the rest of the encounter. This effect stacks and has the charm keyword.
Crimson Tendrils (11th level): You gain the Crimson Tendrils power.
Cut and Paste (12th level): You gain the Cut and Paste power.
Stunning Horror (16th level): When you bloody an enemy or score a critical hit, the target is dazed (save ends).
Mind-Wrenching Wrath (20th level): You gain the Mind-Wrenching Wrath power.

Blood-red tentacles erupt out of the ground, constrict you poor adversaries, and wriggle into unpleasant places.
Encounter
Arcane, Necrotic, Implament
Standard Action
Burst 1 within 10 squares
Target: All enemies within burst

You tear apart reality and stitch it back together so two creatures can swap positions.
Encounter
Arcane, Implament
Standard Action
Effect: Two creatures you can see instantly swap positions. You do not need the consent of either creature to preform this action.
Mind-Wrenching Wrath
You send some unlucky soul to the Far Realm for a fraction of a second, mentally scarring them and causing them to go into shock.
Daily
Arcane, Psychic, Implament
Standard Action

MONSTROUS MUMMY
Not all mummies are humanoid. Sometimes particularly demented mages and clerics will also create these vile undead horrors from animals and monsters.
Monstrous mummies are mummies created from non-humanoid creatures.
Mad and Miserable: Monsterous mummies - driven insane by the agony of the transforming ritual - despise their own wretched existence. They lash out at any living creatures and despise those who remind them of what they once were.
Many Shapes and Sizes: Monstrous mummies come in many different forms; from the horrifically mobile plaguewing (made from a sphinx), to the bone-crushing rotfist (made from a dire ape).
Twisted Beyond Recognition: These undead fiends have been warped and deformed beyond recognition by the depraved rituals used to create them and the thousands of years they spent fruitlessly clawing at their prison-tombs. They resemble demonic four-legged brutes covered in weeping gashes and dripping with foul-smelling black tar; with only a few clues remaining as to what they once were.
