Nyarlathotep is the soul and messenger of the Outer Gods, an utter paradox. It is utterly mad, because all Outer Gods are mad, but operates and carries out the will of the Outer Gods with perfect logic and calculations. It can take any form it has met, and it has met over a thousand species all over the universe. It is destined to one day destroy the earth, and is credited with handing humanity the knowledge to make
nuclear weapons. He used to dwell within
The Shining Trapezodehron; an Egyptian artifact, but was freed
accidentally by a physicist when he threw it in a bay.
