Yithaoan isn't on the normal space charts because its a forbidden world. During the war with the with the flying polyps & the vast intergalactic struggles with Cthulhu's foul brood certain worlds became battle grounds were the weapons of the Yithians were released. These weapons caused the world itself to shift completely out of faze with the normal universe. Since then vast fungal varieties have spread across the face of this world. Many believe its because of the remains of the corpses of the polyps & the remains of Cthulhu's brood that such bizarre fungus thrives.
More frightening is the fact that several varieties of fungus still survive there.
As an Earth Type variety A-2 world, Yithaoan also boasts several varieties of mutated primitive dinosaurian life forms which some scientists speculate may have been transported to the world millions of years ago.
Those who land here have a 48 hour window before the world begins to fade back into the Outer Darkness surrounding the time space continuum but some of have said that the world actually fades into the human subconscious. There is speculation that the world also has a malevolent streak & lies in wait sending out strange dreams to those whom it deems worth of its attentions.
