Outer God

The Outer Gods, are the subset of Gods used to classify the beings of the Lovecraftians worshipped as deities. The Lovecraftians are said to be one of the most dangerous, powerful, and ancient Pantheons, but even older than the Pantheon itself are the Outer Gods. They were the chosen few by the Daemon Sultan to spread the Lovecraftian influence to their civilizations.
== History ==
When creating the Lovecraftians, the Daemon Sultan thought about how to begin. He thought about being the sole ruler and using influence, however he realized that the number of the masses were too sizable, even for him. He was an Omnipresent being, but in any place, at any moment when his eyes weren't looking, someone else would look to seize the power he established. He decided to work from the top-down. Instead of relying on himself, he would need to create a circle of deities, different ones to allow for different worship. An Outer God isn't just simply classed by their power or their origins, they are also classed by their influence. Many different people are Outer Gods, with almost all of them except for Kthanid, Cthulhu, and Hastur originating outside of Universe Prime. They all consist of different status, expertise, and skillset with only one thing being true for all of them: they are all leaders or have led in their previous lives. Each member of the Outer God's has such great influence that nearly every pantheon has heard the titles of every single one and several Lovecraftian occults exist in nearly every civilization. The Outer Gods are not just skilled leaders, but also skilled liars as they had all beings convinced that Nyarlathotep was the Pantheon's true leader until the Daemon Sultan inevitably revealed himself.
