B'Moth

B'Moth is a fictional sea god created by Bertram Russell in the story "The Scourge of B'Moth". Henry Hasse listed the creature (as "Beh-moth") among Mythos entities in a quote from "The Guardian of the Book". The name evokes Behemoth, a giant monster mentioned in the Bible. 
Chaosium later presented B'Moth as an avatar of Cthulhu.
==The Cult of B'Moth==
Whilst B'Moth is worshipped the world over, its cultists appear to be most numerous in South America and Africa. These mortals believe that the earth should be returned to a wilder, more primitive state, and have faith that their god will one day return rise to bring about the fall of humanity and the planet's regression. Their worship includes wild rites which include sex and violence elements, and they are known to offer blood sacrifice by feeding their victims to sharks and crocodiles, likely in response to B'Moth's affinity for water (: Ye Booke of Monstres II).
==Description==
The Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game supplement Ye Booke of Monstres II describes B'Moth as a glowing, fog-like entity. It has no direct control over the physical realm, and must rely on its - admittedly extensive - mental abilities to exert its influence. However, this lack of a tangible physical presence works both ways, and it is almost immune to harm in this world.
B'Moth primarily uses its psychic abilities to control the minds of others to achieve its goals, although it is also known to wantonly spread madness through dreams and waking nightmares wherever it goes. Its power also seems to increase in proximity to large bodies of water.
