H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos is a shared universe far larger and more terrifying than that of humanity, where ancient, malevolent beings known as the Great Old Ones slumber in the depths of space or time. After Lovecraft's death, the Mythos has been expanded and developed by many authors, including August Derleth, Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard. These and many other authors have helped to flesh out the Mythos into a rich and complex Dark Universe.
Rules:
- Please NO "Call of Cthulhu RPG" content (there are other great groups)

- Where possible share the link to the authors or the sources
- Ignore the call in your dreams as long as possible

This is how I always imagined nyarlethotep to look. Not a pointy headed tentacle monster(he wouldn't show up like that to people),but a well dressed businessman who straight up tells you of the horrors that will happen,but hypnotizes you into following,and only then do you see his true form.
