Bloated Woman

The Bloated Woman, also known as the Goddess of the Black Fan, is a character created by American games designer Scott David Aniolowski for Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game. She made her first appearance in the critically acclaimed 1984 scenario supplement Masks of Nyarlathotep.
==Overview==
An avatar of Nyarlathotep active in and around China, the Bloated Woman is described as "a 600 pound, seven-foot-tall being vaguely resembling an obese human female, with tentacles in place of arms and nose, five perfect cupids-bow mouths made hideous by clusters of protruding tangs, and wearing a yellow-and-black tunic of a material resembling fine silk, in the belt of which hang six sickles and the mystic Black Fan It is worth bearing mind that the source for this quote, S. Petersen's Field Guide to Lovecraftian Horrors, is written by in-universe scholars with an incomplete understanding of the entities of the Cthulhu Mythos. As such, it is entirely possible that the information is inaccurate.." However, the fan allows her to project the appearance of a beautiful young Asian woman: without it she reverts to her "natural" appearance.
==Cult==
She is worshipped by the Order of the Bloated Woman, a historical organisation which has been in her service for millennia.
