-In the aeons that followed, the Great Race divided the Earth between themselves, the mi-go, and Cthulhu’s kin. Cthulhu and his kind ruled from the Pacific and the lost lands of R’lyeh and Mu.

 **Time Travel**: The Great Race are so-named because they conquered time so thoroughly—the only race known to have done so. A member of the race can send its mind forward or backward through time and across space, pick out a suitable subject and trade minds with it; whenever a member of the Great Race takes over the body of a being, that being’s mind is transferred into the body of the Great Race individual, there to stay until the being now inhabiting its old body sees fit to return and trade places once more. With this technique the race has traveled en masse through time and space and conquered other planets. **Time Travel**: The Great Race are so-named because they conquered time so thoroughly—the only race known to have done so.

 +As far as the investigators can tell, they have so far interacted with one Yithian. They came to know it as [[Characters: Khari]], after the ritual performed by [[Characters: Emile Vabreaux]] led to alien mind occupying the body of a 15-year old boy they saved in [[Chapters: Kenya]].
 +
 +In [[Locations: Sydney]] the same Yithian took over the body of [[Characters: Agatha Sheppard]] during the investigators' stay at the [[Organizations: Lamplighters]].

 +==== In Books ====
 +
 +[[Books: Pnakotic Manuscripts]] discuss the growth and decline of the ancient civilization of Great Race, the wars that they waged against the race of space-faring mushroom-like creatures, as well as the flock of amphibian creatures inhabiting the continent of Mu and how the Great Race used their technology to sink it.
