The Chosen of Cthulhu (NATION, PC)

The Chosen of Cthulhu stand as a true bastion of faith, bound by the caste system they thrive on the desolate world of R'lyeh. The Chosen have long stood under guidance of the priest king and his council of cardinals, the Chosen have stood as both slave and master and through faith they have navigated both.
It was by the power of great of Cthulhu that the chosen broke there chains, but in his wrath the great one reduced even his own people to the brink of extinction, to compensate for this the great one granted his children extremely long life spans. For his love great Cthulhu is given the worship he so rightly deserves. It will be by the Chosen's hand the mighty one shall rise again but this will only be possible once his faith is spread beyond his children and into the stars.

== History ==
6000 years ago the great one arose to see his children bound in chains, a cold wrath fell upon him then as he raised the former dominate people’s civilization giving the world to those few of his chosen who survived.  Cthulhu’s wrath did more than topple tyrants; however, in his reckless rage the great old one rendered the planet to be as a tomb removing over 80% of the planet's total water. Forcing his people to adapt or die, to this end came the creation of the psi network that allows for the necessary flow of energy to supplement the greatly limited intake of solid foods and water. It would be in the following centuries of reordering that the caste system would be born under the eye of the first of the priest kings. Under the rule of the church and with the placement of the caste the chosen began a slow but steady period of true reconstruction, it would be during this period that they discovered the true lengths of their lives as given to them by mighty Cthulhu with even the lowest of laborers living well into the hundreds and the first priest kings living to the ancient age of 3100 and the second still reigns.
