Which Great Old One Are You??

"Cordelia's Song", from The King in Yellow... yes, indeed....

[Joel007]

You are Shub-Niggurath!

Shub-Niggurath is often called the "Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young", and is the force of creation, life, evolution/mutation. She represent the force of the one universal constant (ie change) on the biological. She is often envisioned as a dark, low lying cloud, with goat's hooves with numerous tenticals writhing from within. Her rites are best performed during a New Moon, or on Mid-Summer's Eve.

Joel: She's also Pyan's Granny....

[pyan]

Hiya, Grandma Joel *waves* You're looking well!

[HoopyFrood]

Haha!

You can see the family resemblance with the tentacles...

[pyan]

But Joel hasn't got any tenta...... Oh, I see!

[Nesacat]

I take it that partnering up and crushing the puny humans would not be more than just a dream??

[pyan]

Well, we could - but surely just enslaving them all would suffice?

[Joel007]

Crushing would be too easy

[Nesacat]

To paraphrase The Old Gent;

.... I dream of a day when we may rise above the billows to drag down in our reeking talons the remnants of puny, war-exhausted mankind - of a day when the land shall sink, and the dark ocean floor shall ascend amidst universal pandemonium.

Or we could just pop some popcorn, pull up a ringside seat and enjoy the show as they do themselves in . . . .

Ah, but then you don't get to see them running in terror.

"Shall I wait until they sleep? Or is the horror twice as horrible when it comes out of nowhere...."

[Nesacat]

Popcorn sounds good ... butter and sugar please.

Methinks there'll be plenty of terror, running and screaming to around.

[Curt Chiarelli]

Excellent points! So, we're agreed then: ripping talons, piping orifaces and slimy tentacles it is! Boy are we gonna put on a show!

Mundanes and any government officials paying attention to this site are going to be in need of therapy.

Either that or there'll be a knock at the door at 2am and some chap in a trench coat with it's collar turned up, a fedora and a smelly cigarette will take up away in a very quiet car to a room somewhere far far away and want to know exactly how he can get in on this world dominion business.

Shall tell him tentacles are a basic requirement.
