SPORE - Nyarlathotep, the Crawling Chaos...

And it was then that Nyarlathotep came out of Egypt. Who he was, none could tell, but he was of the old native blood and looked like a Pharaoh. The fellahin knelt when they saw him, yet could not say why. He said he had risen up out of the blackness of twenty-seven centuries, and that he had heard messages from places not on this planet. Into the lands of civilisation came Nyarlathotep, swarthy, slender, and sinister, always buying strange instruments of glass and metal and combining them into instruments yet stranger. He spoke much of the sciences - of electricity and psychology - and gave exhibitions of power which sent his spectators away speechless, yet which swelled his fame to exceeding magnitude. Men advised one another to see Nyarlathotep, and shuddered. And where Nyarlathotep went, rest vanished; for the small hours were rent with the screams of a nightmare.

—H. P. Lovecraft, Nyarlathotep

Lovecraft would laugh at this depiction of Nyarlathotep... the reality would be instant insanity from the sheer terror and lack of senses to comprehend apon laying eyes on something from the void.

No, if Lovercraft have had access to the Internet he would have watched porn all day long and forget about nightmares from beyond.

@Wvskrj: I'm currently re-reading "At The Mountains of Madness"; that's a pretty damn good description, if you're going from memory.

barrels sitting on 5 tentacle-like legs, shaped like a star. at least one pair of protractable wings, 4 tentacle-like arms going around the middle of the barrels with even smaller almost wire-like tentacles coming from there. Star shaped head with 5 red eyes coming from each tip. mouthparts coming from the very top, like straws. at least something like that. it'll be interesting to see what del Toro does with them if he ever makes Madness a reality.
