Yog-Sothoth

"The Omniverse is broken and requires fixing. There is death, violence, war, rape all across it. The only way to fix it is to break it apart and stitch it back together, whether we do that painfully or peacefully is none of my concern. Afterall, gardeners are supposed to tend to their gardens and pluck weeds from it, not simply watch the vines swallow up the plants." - Yog-Sothoth to Nyarlathotep
Yog-Sothoth, the Gate and the Key, is an Outer God and a member of the Eldritch of Undeath. He is one of the strongest Outer Gods and his manipulation over Time and Space are said to be so strong that he is rumored to be a living nexus of Time and Space.
== History ==
In a faraway universe, it was ruled over by cultists. All across the galaxy would be cultists scavenging worlds, forcing their own twisted ideologies and religions on others, but the most prominent Cult, known as Open Eye, was the most prevalent of all the cults. The founding members are known as Harold Fisher and Rosemary Jones but were simply known as Father and Mother. They were a married couple who heavily believed in a group of Cosmic Gods far greater than themselves that ruled the Universe. They made many offerings to these gods; most of the time, these would be human sacrifices, and these sacrificial individuals would usually be people they deemed "shameful to their gods," such as the elderly, cripples, etc. They would also sacrifice babies and sometimes members of the Open Eye would have children for the sole purpose of sacrificing them to their gods. Young Yog-Sothoth was no exception to this. He would be born into the world, and upon being conceived, he was taken only a week later to the altar to be sacrificed. After the ritual commenced Father and Mother came to the altar and delivered a special speech before the priest readied the dagger; however, when the knife was brought down upon Yog-Sothoth, it didn't cut. As a matter of fact, the knife simply bounced off. Father and Mother were very reasonably confused. As they continued to attempt to pierce him, he didn't seem to be hurt. Father and Mother had a grim expression on their face; they knew they could not rid themselves of this child, yet if the child did not die, it would mean the deity they were attempting to sacrifice, Yog-Sothoth, too, was angry with them. Though Yog-Sothoth didn't seem to be hurt, he was, in fact, hurting. His body felt like he was being punched repeatedly and he began to weep. The following years were awful for Yog-Sothoth. Father and Mother despised him as they believed because of Yog-Sothoth their gods no longer viewed them with love, but with hate and anger. Father and Mother hated him so much that they ordered all cultists who came across Yog-Sothoth to hit him. They even told everyone that anybody who uttered his given name at the time, "Yogg", would have their lips sewn shut, and anybody who showed any kindness to him would be tortured to death. Even worse another part of Yog-Sothoth's abnormal ability to be unable to be cut or even suffer organ damage is that he seemed to age incredibly slowly, so he stayed as a helpless child throughout most of his "young" life. As time went on Yog-Sothoth's parents would eventually succumb to their old age, and Yog-Sothoth would be absolutely miserable. He would have no friends, no loved one, no nothing. One day though, this would change, as a female cultist would eventually start talking to Yog-Sothoth, and even though Yog-Sothoth didn't want anything to do with her, she insisted that he "lighten up" and that his parents were dead that means he can finally be at peace. As time went on, he would finally begin to talk to her more and even grow attached to her. She was known as Mary and he told her his name was "Yogg". The two would continue to talk and talk and became great friends. This, unfortunately, though, became the cruelest thing done to Yogg as one day, as he was sleeping, he heard somebody break into his house. Just as he was getting up, he was brutally attacked by a masked individual who began rapidly beating him. They then pulled out a dagger that was different than any other blade he had seen. He dodged the initial downswing, but it hit his shoulder and did, in fact, manage to cut him. As he began to bleed, he finally became fed up with all the abuse he had taken and disarmed his attacker before stabbing them in the stomach. The attacker then stumbled and fell against the wall. When Yogg unmasked the attacker he was horrified: it was Mary. When he asked why she did what she did, she revealed that he never liked him and that her parents were close friends with his parents. She revealed that he hated him more than anything and that his mere existence had brought shame to everything Open Eye stood for. She even revealed that her getting close to him was an illusion so that in the chance that he did manage to overpower her, she could watch the look of betrayal on his face as he realized that the only person who he thought cared about him actually hated him and wanted him dead more than anybody else. Yogg was stunned, he had no idea what to say or speak. Just as he was about to say something, Mary interrupted him by stating that she had no desire to hear anything he had to say, as the mere sound of his voice and the look on his face disgusted her and demanded that he kill her. Yogg, at this very moment, broke down right in front of her as she lay there bleeding out. She took no time in her final moments to repeatedly berate him stating that he was pathetic and that he was a fool to think that anybody would actually care for him after what he had done to Open Eye. Yogg was never the same after this incident. He became obsessed with becoming strong and didn't speak to anybody. He raided libraries, churches, monasteries, graveyards, barracks, castles, cultist hideouts, and anything for even a small bit of knowledge and power. One day though, when he was finally about to give up, he was approached by a hooded figure. He believed this was another assassin and got ready to fight, but this person then stated that they had zero interest in fighting. When Yogg demanded they tell him who he was, he simply introduced himself as "The Mad Poet". When Yogg stated that the name sounded familiar, the hooded figure was quite intrigued. He then stated he came there after seeing somebody who had become quite hellbent on being strong and asked why he desired strength. Yogg told him that it was none of his business, and the stranger responded that it was his business, as he was the one who could grant him that strength, but that all he needed was a good reason to do so. Yogg was reluctant but, at one point, finally gave in. At the end of telling him his story, he broke down and began weeping incessantly. The Mad Poet then stated that it was a terrible story indeed, and this was when Yogg said that he would ensure that this doesn't happen to anybody else, no matter how many people have to die, and that he would use his new power to destroy this universe completely. When The Mad Poet heard this he laughed and took off his hood. When Yogg laid eyes upon the figure, he was horrified and believed that this was one of the gods his parents talked about. The Mad Poet then said that he was very interested in Yogg as he had potential he had never seen before. He then told him he can't actually grant him the power he is looking for, but rather that his leader could, but in order to speak with him, he needed to die. Yogg jarred by this knowledge and after a bit of deliberation, decided to do it. Yogg without any warning was killed, and when he woke up he found himself in front of man who introduced himself as the Daemon Sultan. He told Yogg that he was very intrigued by Yogg and that he suffered a rather pathetic life. He then told him that he would rid of of that weakness and then told Yogg about the source of his mysterious power. This was when Yogg learned of his Green Soul. Shortly after, the Daemon Sultan said he would need to pass a test in order to gain his power, and that test was to last at least 10 seconds in a battle against him. Yogg immediately took caution in this state and believed that nobody would issue a challenge like that if they weren't insanely strong. Yogg then took this challenge and managed to get to exactly 10 seconds before being sliced in half. The Daemon Sultan then put him back together and then told him he had earned his power. As he was giving power to Yogg, he was then told that him that he was reborn as Yog-Sothoth and that he would join the ranks among his strongest and most trusted adversaries known as the Eldritch of Undeath. Upon finishing, the Daemon Sultan informed Yog-Sothoth that using his limitless power he caused a paradox in the Omniverse that rebirthed him as Time and Space itself and that his power of Time and Space itself was limitless. He was also told that Nyarlethotep had a gift for him, and when Yog-Sothoth asked who that was, the Daemon Sultan stated that Nyarlethotep was the Mad Poet who had brought Yog-Sothoth to him. When Nyarlethotep reached Yog-Sothoth, he gave him a seal that was known as the Acausality Seal. It was perfected by the Daemon Sultan and a gift for obtaining his newfound power. Shortly after he left the Court of the Daemon Sultan, he went back to his home universe and used his new found powers of Time and Space to erase the entire universe from existence. Yog-Sothoth would then vow from that day forward that his power would be used to serve the Daemon Sultan, but also desired to ensure that nobody would go through the things that he went through and to this day, he has done just that through his own twisted sense of justice.
== Personality ==
Due to his heavily traumatic life, Yog-Sothoth seems to be incapable of radiating any emotion other than anger, sadness, and disgust and will often maintain a blank expression with his eyes blasted open. It is stated that even Nyarlethotep, one of Yog-Sothoth's closest friends has never seen him smile once. Yog-Sothoth's intention is for Omniversal peace and for nobody to ever go through the things he went through believing his suffering shouldn't even be wished upon anybody. While his intentions are pure, he is incredibly brutal and has little to no remorse for anybody he kills stating that they deserve to die if they are killed by him. This makes him come across as a benevolent deity, yet emotionless and slightly depraved.
== Physical and Mental Analysis ==
Rough analysis was done on Yog-Sothoth by Anthropos and Mech:
* Yog-Sothoth often appears in human form, he is a tall, skinny man with who wears a hat and appears blind, which is referenced through the fact that people who know him on Earth to have bandages around the upper half of his face that cover his face.
** After the death of his son, Wilbur Whately, he assumed the role of Dean for the prestigious Miskatonic University under the name of Yog S. Whately, a school that rivals even Harvard for it's academic achievements and capabilities.
** People who have seen Human Yog-Sothoth without his bandages said that his eyes always seem to be shot wide open and seem to glow almost. His eyes seem to reveal vast universes and when staring into them, the people felt incredibly unnerved and state that, "Time seems to slow down."
* Yog-Sothoth is the embodiment of time and space itself, at least it seems that way.
* The Gate Yog-Sothoth refers to is something that he utilizes as a weapon to destroy the minds of other people and sometimes even erase them from reality.
** The Gate appears to be an opening to other planes of existences and realities, the vast knowledge of these is enough to drive away any mortal, and destroys the minds of even the strongest of beings. The only way to counter The Gate is to have True Omniscience, which is only possessed by two people, Azathoth and Ouroboros.
* He wields a Bo-Staff built from his own flesh and the essence of time and space themselves. This makes it completely indestructible by any and all means.
