God of the Bloody Tongue

The God of the Bloody Tongue is an avatar of Nyarlathotep revered in Africa. He is also known as the Howler of Darkness in Sandy Petersen's Cthulhu Mythos as it does not use a Chaosium IP.
==Appearance==
This being is described as "a giant with three legs and a red tentacle where his face should be." It is curious that the representation of this avatar has become so popular and iconic that it is usual for Nyarlathotep to be represented generically with this aspect, treating it as if it were its main avatar or its original form, although this is not specified in any writing.
==Worship==
The cult of this avatar originated in Kenya, although it is true that emigration allowed it to soon spread to other regions, reaching the United States. The sect of worshipers of the God of the Bloody Tongue make a pilgrimage to the Mountain of the Dark Wind to participate in the orgiastic rituals that are performed monthly in honor of the deity. Once every five years the god manifests himself on the mountain to feed on the sacrifices that his devotees offer him. Their presence generates a terrible storm around the ritual site.
==In Popular Culture==
*This avatar of Nyarlathotep appears in Persona 2: Eternal Punishment.
