Kaalut

Kaalut is a fictional character created by J. B. Lee for the short story "Genuine Article" (January, 1998).
==Background==
Kaalut is a gigantic insectoid larva-like horror, dwelling in the nebulous realm of K'gil'mnon, along with the Gharoides, its parasitic insectoid servants. It also likely has human worshipers.
Kaalut's powers vary but the most prominent are mind manipulation, telepathy, omniscience, invulnerability, immortality and possibly reality warping though this is not confirmed. Because of this, it may even rival Nyarlathotep in power. Kaalut's age is unknown though it is said to be as old as reality itself.
The cults who worship Kaalut are supposedly given supernatural powers that cannot be explained by regular science. The Gharoides also might have the same abilities.
==Behind the Mythos==
Kaalut, the Gharoides, and K'gil'mnon were all created by J. B. Lee before he ever read H. P. Lovecraft. Upon discovering the Cthulhu Mythos, Lee decided to incorporate his inventions into the pantheon, mentioning Kaalut along with Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, Azathoth and Shub-Niggurath in "Genuine Article" (January, 1998).
