Hastur

Hastur is one of the selectable characters in 20 Minutes Till Dawn. They have 4 HP, and are unlocked by surviving the Temple in Standard Mode.
== Ability ==
Every 5 seconds, a Tentacle is summoned nearby Hastur. The Tentacles are stationary and cannot be interacted with by the player or any enemy. Each tentacle lasts for 15 seconds each, Meaning Hastur will always have 3 (except in the opening 10 seconds of the match). Each tentacle attacks nearby enemies in a rectangle, every 5 seconds. 
Tentacles do not appear to count as summons for the purposes of the Dedication rune, but still benefit from summon-related Runes and Upgrades:
* Summon Damage:
** Increases the damage of their slams.
** (via Runes such as Power, or Upgrades such as In Sync)
* Summon Attack Speed:
** Decreases the delay between slams.
** (via Upgrades such as Energetic)
