Azathoth

**Azathoth** is the strongest Outer God in all of existence and is one of the three great gods with Khaos and God. It is also said to be the physical manifestation of chaos itself given that Khaos is nothingness while Azathoth is madness given shape.

## Overview

He is a cosmic and boundless deity of colossal proportion and the great and all-powerful ruler of the Outer Gods. He is omnipotent beyond the power of the Great Old Ones, such as Cthulhu, and even his fellow Outer Gods, including Yog-Sothoth and Yibb-Tstll, and all other beings — and is the sole most powerful being in the entire mythos.

Among his many followers the worshipers in the town of Goatswood that practice "obscene rites" that involved "atrocities practiced on still-living victims" in Azathoth's conical temple are insects that have fled the destruction of their home planet of Shaggai, bringing the temple across the universe with them. The Great Old Ones are trying to awaken Azathoth again, it is said that when all of the realms are merged he will awaken and devour all of existence.

## Appearance

There can be no definite description of Azathoth because everybody envisions him differently and he is always changing. For example Ronald Shea enters a temple after visiting the forest near Goatswood and discovers a twenty-foot idol that "represented the god Azathoth--Azathoth as he had been before his exile."

Outside, It consisted of a bivalvular shell supported on many pairs of flexible legs. From the half-open shell rose several jointed cylinders, tipped with polypous appendages; and in the darkness inside the shell I thought I saw a horrible bestial, mouthless face, with deep-sunk eyes and covered with glistening black hair." Later Shae sees "something ooze into the corridor--a pale grey shape, expanding and crinkling, which glistened and shook gelatinously as still-moving particles dropped free; but it was only a glimpse".

One of Azathoth's manifestations in creation has been described as a colossal singularity engulfing everything around it, from planets, stars and even solar systems as large as Earth's, swallowing even the light itself. Its mass had been estimated to be 66 billion times more massive than the sun, that is, more massive than the Triangulum Galaxy itself, with a light as bright as 140 trillion suns. However, due to the enormous distance between this manifestation of Azathoth and the Earth, its size could be much larger, Earth scientists called this manifestation of Nuclear Chaos "Ton-618".

## Personality

It is still unknown what is his true personality, and is been yet to be revealed. Being imprisoned for countless billion years since the time of the war of creation, his mind has been damage for many years of imprisonment through the void of the Outerverse.

It is revealed than he is the complete opposite and the true shadow of God, and the physical and madness manifestation and counter part of Khaos. He is also known for being the first living embodiment of megalomania, malevolence, evil, darkness, chaos, destruction, etc. He is considered even more dangerous and homicidal than Ayin herself.

Being the creator of the old ones (mainly the outer gods), he is been feared, yet revered greatly by his children, servants, and those worships him. He in turn is very caring to them, and if they show loyalty to him, he will grant them their wish. He also considered a loving father to his first children, showing concern for them and even going as far as warning Nyarlatholep never to engage God and the Heavens recklessly.

For all of his overly all powerful status, he greatly fears his sibling Khaos. As he mentioned to Nyarlathotep that he greatly fears Him above all the being he have faces, more fearful than God .

## Powers and Abilities

Azathoth is technically "God", and additionally the "Blind Idiot God" who is absolutely mindless and unconscious but is omnipotent and the most powerful being of all. Should he awaken, all of existence would be no more, and all would once again be nothing. He cannot be destroyed as he exists beyond the concept of speed, strength, mortals, and the Outer Gods, as they are all merely part of his dream. Despite being mindless, Azathoth does have a will of his own and commands his messenger and son, Nyarlathotep.

* **Nigh Omnipotence**: Azathoth is an entity of unlimited powers and no barriers for what he can or cannot do, his power level rivals that of the Khaos the primeval void himself And God, narrowly surpassing those of Ayin, the Anti-God. Azathoth is the supreme god of lovercrafian myths, being the supreme archetype that precedes all things, being ineffable, existing in silence and immobile, separate from all things of creation, encompassing everything and everyone within his being, including the Outer Gods and One-In-All, with them being just an infinitesimal fraction of Azathoth himself. He is eternity, which is beyond the wheel of time, not only existed but existence itself. Eternal dreaming and eternal awakening, nothing that was born prevails, except what has always prevailed. He is his own cause. It is the creator, the sultan who governs everything beyond the infinite archetypes. His influence is such that it surpasses that of his children. Everything Yog-Sothoth represents is nothing in your perspective, and all the Outer Gods are nothing but servants compared to such power.
* **Omnipresence**: Azathoth is an all-encompassing concept, it embraces with its abominable and evil "arms" all the different levels of creation, existing everywhere and nowhere at the same time, including and excluding itself. Although Yog-Sothoth is known as One-In-All and All-In-One, he is just a microscopic part of his grandfather, the true and supreme One-In-All and All-In-One. Despite being trapped in the Outerverse, Azathoth's presence is still everywhere in the Multiverse & Megaverse, even in the unknown and mysterious Sheol and even among the holy and uncorrupted Aeons of the Pleroma.
* **Oblivion Embodiment**: Azathoth is the physical manifestation and personification of oblivion, or Eternal Oblivion, a state of ceasing to exist, and non-existence a state of non-existence.
* **Primordial Chaos Embodiment**: Azathoth is Chaos itself, the personification of the primordial state of disorder and imbalance that creation was in before God said "let there be light", when the universe was without form, and void. Azathoth is thus unpredictable and uncontrollable and can cause others to become disorderly and disorganized. He is able to change, manipulate, create and destroy anything and everything. This type of chaos is the one that gave way to Creation and Destruction, Azathoth has infinite power over Creation, Destruction and Change.
	+ **Void Creation**: Azathoth can create true, absolute voids, spaces that are empty/absent of anything/everything that we can understand including form, shape, dimension, time, matter, energy, distance, sound, motion, concepts, etc. Because of the nature of these voids, anything that enters them may be impossible to ever escape or be rescued from and/or may even be erased from existence because of the contradictory nature or lack of life-giving elements/properties inside them.
	+ **Absolute Erasure**: Azathoth, like his son Nyarlathotep, is able to erase a person from existence, erasing his body, spirit and soul, the soul being a microscopic and infinitely small fraction of the power of the Creator God Himself. Azathoth can erase a human being, angel or demon and even a primordial from existence and non-existence, with no trace that he existed, even in the present and future past, with no possibility or impossibility of such an entity having or not having existed, returning to entity back to the primitive state in which all things existed (or did not exist) before God created the Light - the very Void of Non-existence.
* **Anti-God**: Azathoth is the pre-existential personification of evil, chaos and destruction, as well as being the personification of darkness and madness, representing everything that God is not and does not represent. While God is the All-Loving Creator who loves from the smallest bacteria to the most powerful Archangel or Arcutha, Azathoth is an omnimalevolent Destroyer, despising and rejecting everything and anything that God created, from the smallest bacteria to the mightiest arcutha, including God himself.
	+ **Omnimalevolence**: Azathoth is the second pre-existential personification of evil, he is corruption, filth, hatred, pain and all the negative concepts that hurt the children of God. Azathoth is not simply evil, since just as the nature of God is to be good for being good, Azathoth is evil for being evil, he is simply a being who hates everything and anything in creation, feeling apathy for nothing or anyone, not even for his children, not even by the pre-existential others or their consort. He is rejecting all that is something beyond him, some say he rejects himself, wanting to take not only creation but himself to return to the endless void of non-existence that there was before Khaos himself.
	+ **Evil Embodiment**: Azathtoh is and can become the embodiment of evil and can manipulate everything evil, including having all evil powers and power over evil beings, places and events (Azathoth is a force of nature). Examples include using weather to destroy towns, cursing people to induce horrifying effects, physically and psychologically torturing people, inducing sins, etc. Azathtoh can also do things like shapeshifting into a chaotic monster and do almost anything as long as it ensures death, destruction or pain on the victims. Azathoth of this power is incredibly powerful because of the limitless capabilities and the fact that there is evil in almost every place. Azathoth cannot be "killed" and can exist anywhere, but their existence is far stronger in some places than others as long as the place isn't overrun by a good embodiment user.
* **True Form**: Azathoth's true form is beyond the logically and illogically imaginable and unimaginable, his true form impossible to describe, for the entity that is Azathoth cannot be referred to for what he is, except for the very absence of information. It is said even the most powerful Arcutha or primordial could not look at Azathoth's true form without wanting to kill himself to avoid the suffering caused by a brief glimpse of his appearance. However, when God was asked what Azathoth looked like, God just said "his appearance is like nothingness".
* **Lovecraftian Physiology**: Azathoth is the progenitor of the Lovecraftian pantheon with all the dark and chaos entities known as the Old One coming into being because of him.
* **Possible 4th Wall Awareness**: It is possible that Azathoth may be aware of his own fictional existence to some extend, though it's not confirmed.
* **Absolute Transcendence**: Azathoth transcends absolutely anything and everything. This includes all dimensions, life/death, beginning/ending, concepts/ideas/principles, creation/destruction, boundaries, context, potential, possibilities/variables, levels of reality, existence/nonexistence, perfection/levels of perfection, embodiments, their personal status, being/non-being, etc. It may be impossible to categorize or find an exact description for he in any way as he can exist completely above and beyond all classification and definition. He is unbound and are free to defy absolutely all things; even logic itself.
	+ **Conceptual Transcendence**: Azathoth transcends all concepts, conceptual powers, definitions/meanings and/or forms of logic, allowing him to exist in a state outside of any perspective, understanding or method of classification. This not only prevents him from being influenced or affected by conceptual powers, but it also grants him a form of total and absolute freedom, as there are no longer restrictions that bind him, as no concept can apply to him anymore.
		- **Duality Transcendence**: Azathoth transcends all forms of dualities; being independently and qualitatively beyond various dualism systems and their conceptual level. Beings of Transduality exists at higher levels above and beyond binary oppositions and dueling systems, making them unaffected by binary concepts, thus gaining control over those binary concepts of dualism.
* **Apocalyptic Force Manipulation**: Azathoth able to control the final force, the one that causes all of existence to end. Apocalyptic force does not mean he need to necessarily destroy, just end a universal cycle making it the representation of end or omega. Azathoth can truly tamper with the end power of existence and terminate any universal cycle, creating absolute chaos.

## History

In the beginning there was nothing only a boundless void but then out of the voids destructive energies was formed the cosmic egg whitch hatched and out of it came {[Calligo]],Khaos,The Darkness,Ayin,God,**Azathoth** ,ycnaiggz,Barbelo,Tathameth,Death,Life,Father Time,Ourobouros And Vitriol These were The Absolutes the most powerful primordial entities. at first these beings were uncaring about each other but it all changed when god proposed creation this led to a six way war between Calligo and khaos who created primordials ,Azathoth and ycnannigz who created outer gods barbelo and God who created arcuthas

While the duration of the battle between these cosmic forces is unknown due to the fact that the concept of time was nonexistent, it is written that it took six days for God to finally defeat the others. On the first day, God and Barbelo created the Arcuthas in order to combat the others. On the second day, Calligo and Khaos created the Primordials and Azathoth and Ycnagnnisssz created the Outer Gods both in order to combat Khaos and God. On the third day God and Khaos combated each other. The fourth day resulted in the Primordials combating the Outer Gods. On the fifth day they were finally able to defeat Azathoth and the Outer Gods. And finally on the sixth day, Calligo and khaos revealed themselves to be a bit more sympathetic and joined God's side, defeating Ayin and Tathamet, due to the two not having armies.

## Myths and Legends

Azathoth is a character that was created by horror writer, H.P. Lovercraft. In books, he is the creator of the Old One and the primordial personification of chaos and nothingness itself, being also the initial cause and the final cause of creation.

It is believed that Azathoth gave birth to the Universe as we know it, that when he fell into a deep sleep, the Nuclear Chaos in his subconscious, within his deep sleep, caused an incredibly hot and dense singularity that expanded, an expansion so strong that it it can be felt to this day. Azathoth would also have had children, the most famous of them being Nyarlathotep, who was also (possibly) who gave the revelations about the Sultan and creation to a man named H.P. Lovercraft, only to later kill him with bowel cancer. Some believe that several mystical events that happened in the past were very dangerous attempts to try to summon Azathoth, for example: The Great Flood and the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah recorded in the Bible.

Some seers and prophets who predicted the Earth's destruction may have seen a manifestation of Azathoth, which unlike other times, the planet could not resist this time. The Abyssal Idiot currently remains in deep sleep, sleeping eternally, or at least that's what everyone wants, because if all creation came into existence when he lay down to sleep, then when he wakes up the Sultan will stop dreaming and everything will return to non-existence.

Azathoth has been compared to the God of the Bible, as both are omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient. However, Azathoth seems to be a dark "version" of the God of the Bible, being even compared to the Demiurge, a dark entity who created the Universe out of chaos, making the Universe a chaotic and unpleasant place to live. The similarities increase when Azathoth and the Demiurge are ignorant, described as fools and idiots.

Azathoth being asleep may have been inspired by the Hindu god, Brahma, that when he goes to sleep, the world and everything in it is consumed by fire. When he wakes up again, he recreates all creation, and so on.
