I don't know if someone has brought this up already but I'm going to make my point quickly...

I started *** RPG a few years back, I did quite a bit of research into it. There are some very close comparisons to a biblical characters...

* Cthulhu descended upon the earth with all his minions following behind...
* Satan was cast down from heaven with all those who fought at his side...

There are many more like this...

H.P. Lovecraft was a genius, however a little weird, he was able to recreate his own world to which many of us escape reality!

And with strange aeons even death may die."

Well, Cthulu is supposed to be impossible to pronounce by those of sane minds isn't it?

Correct! in game terms... to truly understand how Cthulhu and the real world works(Mythos world)
Would be to disregard and abandon all common sense and knowledge... and to lose touch with everything

But is this not true for most things in real life, for an Christian to be a true man of god they need the powerful change in there life where everything looks different...

Could be that lovecraft of just one of the first of a mightier movement!

Last thursday I think. Cthulhu slept in and wishes to appologise for that.

There is little doubt that Cthulhu was based, even loosely, on Satan. It's like the whole thing about Shai'Tan and Kadulu and all that stuff. If I can find my RPG sourcebook, I'll have a read through and stick it up here. It is all fiction though.

So Cthulhu's just a big octopus with wings? I just can't be afraid of anything that can be represented as a plush toy.

The above link mentions a very interesting phenomenon that happened, which some attribute to cthulu.... original.gif

Oh noes... not the "Bloop" again. no.gif laugh.gif

I dunno, I think that was probably tectonic activity or some other natural geographic phenomenon.

Hey, maybe we should start an online RPG of Cthulhu. tongue.gif
