@InfiniteMisery003 Well, I don't see any reason why globes can't have tentacles. Especially when the globes in question are parts of a being beyond our comprehension.
@InfiniteMisery003 Take a moment to consider that Yog Sothoth, and many other Elder Gods, are only described as having certain shapes because thats how we can try to understand them. I highly doubt that most Elder Gods have much more than a passing interest in the concept of form, aside from Nyarlathotep of course, but he keeps changing his.
@TheWireCorpse You mean who would win a fight betwen the horribly twisted thing that is the powerfull but still limited Great Old one Cthulu, highpriest of madness versus the being who is all space and all time everywhere forever Yog-Sothoth who is posibly the only thing that could duke it out with Azatoth and not get insta-killed?
Yog. Yog by miles. Yog rips Cthulu a new one so bad that the universe ends.
the descendants of hominidae have their unique blend for magic, and that´s technology ( the cyclotron or god machine, for instance ). the elder gods, if they ever awake, will find humans reinvented hell, and there´ll be war.
@MsMorphic indeed it is. but you must remember the notion of "Sanity" is held within the hands of the majority. if the insane people because the majority, who KNOWS what would happen. maybe everything would turn out perfectly fine, maybe not. the point i'm trying to get is just because someone may have mental issues, or may be clinically insane, does not mean they are incapable of understanding you, or comprehending things
@MsMorphic it doesn't take logic or reasoning to understand and comprehend something. all it takes is an open mind. which Azathoth (by the fact that he can create whole universes in his dreams) definitely has
@MsMorphic you seem to be under the perceived notion that insane people cannot comprehend things. if you look all throughout time, some of the worlds smartest, or most talented people had some type of mental disorder. some were even classified as insane. but if thats not good enough, then i give you this example. if you spoke to Azathoth directly, he would be able to understand and comprehend to what your saying perfectly, but his reaction would have no logic or reason behind it
@MsMorphic haha, but as i said at the beggining; Azathoth can understand things perfectly fine. he simply cannot make rational choices based on logical points. does that mean he is corrupted? of course not. evil? no. in fact, the best way to describe him would be to simply say he's....insane
@MsMorphic rest assured i agree with you, though, that the Ancient Ones are unaware of how fragile our minds are. just because something is a spiritual being, however, doesn't mean it's not affected by moral's or ethics. in fact, every Elder God or Ancient one has their own personality, some are nice and benevolent, others far less so. simply because of their own morals or ethics. what your saying is that morals cannot effect the scope of their thinking, which is false
@MsMorphic but Azathoth himself is not evil. he's chaotic, but there is a difference between destruction/chaos and evil. you wouldn't call a tornado evil, would you? nor would you say that about the winds that created it. it just happens, same with Azathoth's orders. he is incapable of structured thought, so every order or idea he has is made out of a dream. it may not help, may not have any reason, may even be downright stupid, but it's still just there.
@MsMorphic ahh, but they are fully aware. thats what i'm saying. hell, i believe their are more then a few gods who specialize in knowing EVERYTHING there is to know. and it's not as if Azathoth's an asshole, all the gods just recognize him as their king (for whatever reason) and follow him. besides, i'm pretty sure their was a case where Azathoth himself actually SAVED an elder being as an act of honor and chivalry
@MsMorphic ah, but i never said they were GOOD, i said they wearn't evil. and even if a few of them are dreaming, it doesn't mean they don't do anything, and they certainly AREN'T helpless. and, i know this may sound weird, but even though a few of them are gods of chaos, madness, and destruction, i don't think their corrupted. they know exactly what they are doing, and all act towards the will of their king. and he (at the moment) is dreaming
Thats all very nice, but there's a flaw... good is relative.
If you ever played Spyro, Malefor is considered the most evil of dragons because he wants to bring the end of the world. In his point of view, he is doing something good because he hopes that by destroying the world, a new one may arise, better than the last. But according to the "common good", he is evil, plain and simple. It all goes down to how you view it. THere's no good and evil, just titles we give.
@MsMorphic comparing greek horrors to creatures beyond time, space, even the fabric of reality and death is simply redundant. religions most powerful god's pose no more threat to the ancient ones then the worlds most powerful termite's
@Itachi21x Yog-Sothoth is not evil, he is simply there. Hastur is not evil (in fact, he's one of the most compassionate ancient ones), he simply finds joy in insanity. Shub-Niggurath is not evil, she makes sure everything can grow and thrive to the best of it's ability. Nyarlathotep is not evil, he simply follows orders. (as do Cthulhu and Dagon). none of the gods, even Azathoth, are truly "evil". they simply do what they think is best, just like the ones who appose them
is this the basis of where people now go on about that joke religion the flying spaghetti monster? is it based on this ancient one and people reference Lovecraft without even knowing it?
@SceneboyGROWL Nah. Star spawn are creations of Cthulhu. Azathoth is one of, if not the, most powerful of the Outer Gods. The Outer Gods are essentially that, beings of infinite power. Azathoth could destroy the universe with but a thought, so he is kept entertained between dimensions.
Cthulhu on the other hand is simply one of the more powerful Great Old Ones which, while seeming of infinite power to us, are just very powerful aliens, not gods at all.
@9movierox Only Cthulhu is worshipped by the Deep Ones. Keep in mind, both Mother Hydra and Father Dagon are not in fact Great Old Ones, they are just Deep Ones who have grown to immense sizes.
I am not saying that they are not godlike to us, sure. They have each got worshippers and cultists.
All I mean, is that their power, unlike the Outer Gods, is not infinite. Azathoth could destroy the entire universe with but a thought. No Great Old One is that powerful :)
@Grigeral Mother Hydra and Father Dragon are star spawns of Cthulhu from what i heard. i already knew that their power is not infinite, because the Great Old Ones are imprisoned for like practicing dark magic or some unknown blasphemy against the Outer Gods.
I think yogsothoth is somethin superior then the category of Azathoth... He knows it all, he is the key, he is the gate, he is the time... Why do you think wizards want his knowledge?
i've heard azothoth is the strongest.The lesser gods that surround him provide music so he isnt let llose for even a split second the music stops he,it,can destroy our universe.I also heard cthulu is the 2nd strongest as he made yog-sothoth from his flesh
@epicbros100 You're wrong. Cthulhu was born and still has boundaries, even as the strongest of the Old Ones. Yog-Sothoth is god of time and space, beyond any known dimensions, shifting reality and history with his own will and as old as time itself. I think Yog-Sothoth would beat Cthulhu's ass like Cthulhu would beat ours.
well i dont know who is the greatest, though there is a quote in wiki that says yog- sothoth is, but one thing i do know is that yog sothoth is cooler
@juliusyeung0330 Strongest? That is not a question that should concern mortals, for all are strong enough to end this reality if they chose to, they just don't.
Evil? No, not even Cthulhu is evil, for to an Elder God, or an Outer God, or a Great Old One, such a tiny, one-dimensional concept such as good and evil is beneath their notice.
I will say, however, that of all the Elder Gods, the one that is most likely to aid mortals would be Nodens.
He rules from his throne at the center of ultimate chaos, and is often interpreted as the strongest, and as being evil.
Beneath the elder gods there is the Outer gods and Great old ones like Cthulhu, then there is other races.
Some of these isnt Necesairily evil, but have sutch absurd morality that they could be seen as evil. Examples of these is the Mi-Go, and "The Great Race of Yith".
For more details you can send a PM and il answer what i can.
@conradical89 "The Dunwich Horror" is another great story, one of the few Lovecraft stories where heroic characters successfully battle the monster. Also "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" and "The Strange High House In The Mist".
@RavenHouseMystery yeah I read the Dunwich horror gave me the chills instant like on that. Never read "The strange high house in the mist" though, the shadow over insmouth was good though, thanks for the recomondation.
@conradical89 Your welcome. One more I can recommend (and I'm surprised I didn't mention it before) is "At The Mountains Of Madness". Although one of Lovecraft's longest stories, it gives a good historical record of the Great Old Ones arrival on Earth and the story may be the best "cerebral horror/thriller" I've ever read.
Yog-sothoth is believed to be Lovecraft´s favorite creation.
Lovecraft himself, however, never used the term Cthulhu Mythos, nor did he acknowledge any individual distinctions among his stories. Nonetheless, Lovecraft undoubtedly recognized an underlying unity of certain imagined settings and deities in his tales, though the closest he ever came to naming this collective world was the Arkham cycle (after the main fictional town) or Yog-Sothothery (after one of the primary gods)
@Iouapie I think that was meant to be a shoggoth, an artificial lifeform created by the Ancient Ones. Shoggoths are described as protoplasmatic masses capable to form complex organs anywhere in their structure, and that's exactly what that looks like.
this aint yog-soth its cthulhu and the thing in the pit one of his sons the real image of yog is bubbles other wise clarify if there his avatars or something.
@Kattzman Lol I never actually considered the thought of anyone claiming a god as 'overpowered' ^^.
Powerful though he may be, Azathoth is actually just a seething mass with barely any thought pattern. What use is power without the understanding to weild it properly?
@Gorillaz84444 thats not true at all. Azathoth can think and make choices just fine. but none of them are truly rational or logical. even so, just imagining HOW the brain works let alone what it comes up with to these ancient ones is a mind boggling mystery all in itself
@hiimquinn Well according to HP Lovecraft Books Azagoth actually made a foolish decision to save another Outer God that was supposed to be a dear friend to him. (It was like a slime that carried all the writings in the universe.) Well after that the gods took away his mind, making him a powerful idiot (As HP. Lovecraft states himself in one of his books.) and thus Nylarthothep made an advantage and became his messenger.
@Gorillaz84444 really? i heard Azathoth's planet got destroyed, and when he escaped, he accidently launched himself into the farthest reaches of space with nothing and no one. and he slowly went insane because of the isolation. he even got to the point where he would make friends with stars
@Gorillaz84444 haha, it's part of the short story "Azathoth" which tells of his creation and life. it's pretty confusing, and has pretty weird metaphors. but once you interpret what it is saying into the mind of an Ancient one, it starts to make sense. but as i recall, Azathoth isn't actually "stupid" in a sense. it's simply that, because he is the embodiment of chaos, destruction, madness, and darkness, by his very NATURE, he is incapable of structure. which includes rational thinking
@Grigeral Sadly you are mistaken...Yog-Sothoth is considered (in some instances) a completely different being than the Great Old Ones or the Elder Gods. He is also stated to be "The only being truly more powerful than the all-mighty Azathoth, and wiser than the all-seeing Yibb-Tstll." Therefore the statement you made is highly unlikely.
@Zyotomir; It is not a rip off. Yog-Sothoth is one of the Outer Gods from the Cthulhu Mythos, which was created by Lovecraft along with several other authors.
It is more of a tribute as Doloreg says, to Lovecrafts work on the mythos.
the last picture reminds me of Raziel standing in front of the One when he was cast in the Abyss by Kain and his brothers ... for Kain was jealous of his Wings ... Raziel reached the level Kain awaited for centuries but haven't made it there ... lol Raziel and his brothers were awaken from the dead by Kain and he set them as his Liuteinants
I think Cthulhu is a small god. I mean he sleeps in the ocean, on earth, but earth is really small if you see our sun, and our sun is small if you see vy canis majoris
ehm, so you say that it wasnt lovecraft that made yog-sothoth then? so he didnt wright the case of charles dexter ward or the dunwich horror? yog-sothoth is an outer god together with azathoth and several others. have you even read all of h.p lovecrafts books?
But wasn't it supposed to be held in this sort of dungeon, headless, all shackled up and came to pervade someone's conscience only through his or her perverse thoughts? If so, anybody would most likely be a Yog-Sothoth priest, which really makes sense since we all are perverse in our little ways.
In the Call of Cthulhu, Cthulhu stands on the bottom of the ocean and the surface comes only up to his waist. Yog-Sothoth is waaaaaaaay bigger than a mountain.
"It was an All-in-One and One-in-All of limitless being and self not merely a thing of one Space-Time continuum, but allied to the ultimate animating essence of existence's whole unbounded sweep the last, utter sweep which has no confines and which outreaches fancy and mathematics alike"

i thought the tentacled creature was the one in the dunwich horror?
even though that was yog sothoth's son.
or it that yog sothoth's shape transposes to the tentacled shape in our dimension?

@conradical89 "The Dunwich Horror" is another great story, one of the few Lovecraft stories where heroic characters successfully battle the monster. Also "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" and "The Strange High House In The Mist".

@RavenHouseMystery yeah I read the Dunwich horror gave me the chills instant like on that. Never read "The strange high house in the mist" though, the shadow over insmouth was good though, thanks for the recomondation.

@conradical89 Your welcome. One more I can recommend (and I'm surprised I didn't mention it before) is "At The Mountains Of Madness". Although one of Lovecraft's longest stories, it gives a good historical record of the Great Old Ones arrival on Earth and the story may be the best "cerebral horror/thriller" I've ever read.

@evilknevil14 no, it's yog-sothoth.

Yog-Sothoth is first mentioned in Lovecraft's "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward".

@Rahheemme mostly lovecraft. I think Yog sothoth is in more stories than Cthulhu.
It would be better to call the stores the "Yog Sothoth Myhtos"

Yog-sothoth is believed to be Lovecraft´s favorite creation.
Lovecraft himself, however, never used the term Cthulhu Mythos, nor did he acknowledge any individual distinctions among his stories. Nonetheless, Lovecraft undoubtedly recognized an underlying unity of certain imagined settings and deities in his tales, though the closest he ever came to naming this collective world was the Arkham cycle (after the main fictional town) or Yog-Sothothery (after one of the primary gods)

@Iouapie I think that was meant to be a shoggoth, an artificial lifeform created by the Ancient Ones. Shoggoths are described as protoplasmatic masses capable to form complex organs anywhere in their structure, and that's exactly what that looks like.

Hmm good point. I already knew what a shoggoth was though :P But still if that was Soggoth Its how i imagine him.

Gorillaz84444 1 year ago 11
@Gorillaz84444 thats not true at all. Azathoth can think and make choices just fine. but none of them are truly rational or logical. even so, just imagining HOW the brain works let alone what it comes up with to these ancient ones is a mind boggling mystery all in itself
hiimquinn 7 months ago
@hiimquinn Well according to HP Lovecraft Books Azagoth actually made a foolish decision to save another Outer God that was supposed to be a dear friend to him. (It was like a slime that carried all the writings in the universe.) Well after that the gods took away his mind, making him a powerful idiot (As HP. Lovecraft states himself in one of his books.) and thus Nylarthothep made an advantage and became his messenger.
Gorillaz84444 7 months ago
@Gorillaz84444 really? i heard Azathoth's planet got destroyed, and when he escaped, he accidently launched himself into the farthest reaches of space with nothing and no one. and he slowly went insane because of the isolation. he even got to the point where he would make friends with stars
hiimquinn 7 months ago
@hiimquinn Nope, I never heard of that actually! xD Sounds pretty cool but it isnt the TRUE way of how Azagoth became a moron.
Gorillaz84444 7 months ago
@Gorillaz84444 haha, it's part of the short story "Azathoth" which tells of his creation and life. it's pretty confusing, and has pretty weird metaphors. but once you interpret what it is saying into the mind of an Ancient one, it starts to make sense. but as i recall, Azathoth isn't actually "stupid" in a sense. it's simply that, because he is the embodiment of chaos, destruction, madness, and darkness, by his very NATURE, he is incapable of structure. which includes rational thinking

@Grigeral Sadly you are mistaken...Yog-Sothoth is considered (in some instances) a completely different being than the Great Old Ones or the Elder Gods. He is also stated to be "The only being truly more powerful than the all-mighty Azathoth, and wiser than the all-seeing Yibb-Tstll." Therefore the statement you made is highly unlikely.

@Zyotomir; It is not a rip off. Yog-Sothoth is one of the Outer Gods from the Cthulhu Mythos, which was created by Lovecraft along with several other authors.
It is more of a tribute as Doloreg says, to Lovecrafts work on the mythos.

But wasn't it supposed to be held in this sort of dungeon, headless, all shackled up and came to pervade someone's conscience only through his or her perverse thoughts? If so, anybody would most likely be a Yog-Sothoth priest, which really makes sense since we all are perverse in our little ways.

Yog-Sothoth is.... complex:-
"It was an All-in-One and One-in-All of limitless being and self not merely a thing of one Space-Time continuum, but allied to the ultimate animating essence of existence's whole unbounded sweep the last, utter sweep which has no confines and which outreaches fancy and mathematics alike"
