「THE OTHERS: #20 THE ANCIENTS」
(Status: alive, ??? - Species: alien - Linked to... Hard to say actually)
The "Ancients" is a name used to regroup what humans tend to call deities... Who are actually aliens technically speaking. That's probably maybe why trying to summon them as deities might not give the expected results.
Nyarlathotep is probably the evil incarnate of all. He is the one Nynthixia actually tried to summon back in January 2023. But Nyarlathotep has actually very little care for humans. Deceptive in nature, agent of chaos, he only sows sorrow, horror and destruction, if not madness, everywhere he goes. There is even a rumor Nyarlathotep might be involved with the original corruption in some way.
Shub-Niggurath is another known one. Worshipped by many other aliens and even humans, she is considered as a "perverse goddess of fertility". She is not really evil per say, but her purpose is just to spread her "youngs" all over the universe.
Cthulhu and Hastur are half-brothers. One rests in the depths of the Pacific Ocean, the other one rests deep in a space lake. One controls water, the other one air. In both cases, they are worshipped by several cults all over the universe, including on Earth, and no need to say that summoning either of them would result in instant insanity to any unprepared poor soul who crosses their gaze.
Azathoth might be the god that no one summons for two reasons: summoning a blind and idiot god and if ever he would awaken, who ever knows who could happen to reality. So instead, it's often Yog-Sothoth being summoned in his place. Chief of witches and wizards, several cults also actively worship him for the Earth's destruction, and maybe the one of other planets as well.
Don't even dare defying the Ancients. This would be your grave.
