I’m kinda new to this wiki, I only come around to get some info about some Lovecraft gods. My name is Miia and I’m a digital artist whose characters are heavily based on Lovecraft’s godly entities. My favourite gods are Nyarlathotep and Hastur! I’m not sure if it’s allowed on this wiki, but I might share my oc-s (they are humanoid). I hope you don’t mind!:) you might know me from other wikis like Genshin Impact wiki or Honkai:Star Rail wiki where I’m much more active. Pleased to meet you all!
What's on your mind?

Hi everybody.
I have been a long time fan but only recently have made an account. I have been a silent reader mostly. I have been making a lot of old one inspired videos and i love this site. the information is very wel documented and i think the universe is awesome.
Im just looking for some expertise on how accurate my videos are and where i can improve.
Also if possible i would like to reach a point where i am able to share my videos on this site. If im allowed.
So if anybody would be interested check my videos and comment if you find any mistakes. I wil edit them and improve them to be more accurate.
Also i have some questions about the possibility to use some of the art that is displayed on the site here. Am i allowed to use it if i give credit? Because i have one of the earlier video's a made about nyarlathotep. Where i used one picture from this site and forget to credit. If needed the video wil be taken down and edited.

Enjoy your day.
I am asking this because the "Azathoth dreaming reality" misconception has already been debunked. aswell as the family tree being a joke to a friend
how to remove redirect pages? Or can only the admin do this?
What is the origin of Valusians- The serpent people? What deity made them?
What deity made Shogotts (man kind), acctually The Elder Things?
I write story about fight, extinction between two deity through their toys (creations) so I need authentic relations and origins.
"Lovecraft's Vermont Letter" is an original short documentary, artfully timed to coincide with Halloween, employing computer-generated imagery to weave a captivating narrative with profound thematic undertones. Among the intriguing facets that I'm eager to share is the tale of H.P. Lovecraft's correspondence with one Woodburn Harris, a resident of Vermont, dating back to the year 1929. 📜✉️ What truly sets this epistolary exchange apart is its staggering length – a sprawling tome that spans a staggering 70 pages, encapsulating Lovecraft's musings, perspectives, and ruminations on an array of diverse subjects. 📚🖋️ It's worth noting that this intricate missive was penned by none other than H.P. Lovecraft himself during his sojourn in the state of Vermont.
Happy Halloween! 🎃 The spooky season is still in full swing! 🌌👻
It. Is. AMAZING.
I know there is a lot of disagreement about this, but now that I know something about Lovercraft I wanna read all his work. I heard that the best way to start is by reading Cthulhu Mythos. Should I read it that way or read it in chronological order? Or do you have another suggestion?
Does anybody know why Cthulhu is more popular than Azathoth?

This is my first post on this wiki. But well, I'll just go straight to the point. One of My personal theories is that, Azathoth could be the result of describing a black hole. It sounds kinda dumb, but I have some of my 'reasons'.
Could they be both described as 'Ball of Chaos'?
Yes, since Azathoth is sometimes described as literally the mindless force of chaos, and since Black Holes ignores the normal laws such as time and space, I personally think that 'could' be defined as The Ball of Chaos.
Are they Undefinable to Humans?
Yes, since Azathoth is stated that humans could not understand nor even recognize it. Same thing goes for Black Holes' Singularity. It 'does' exists, but it does not exist in any kinds of coordinates that exists in our 3-dimensional world, and since it's density is infinite, which means that we have pretty screwed up defining it, hence not comprehensible using humans' logic.
Are they located in the place sometimes defined as 'The Void'?
Also true, since the palace that Azathoth is located in (aka the Mouse of Madness) is sometimes called as 'The Final Void', and for Black Hole, the singularity literally is inside of event horizon which even light cannot escape.
Are they both haunting my dreams?
Yes. HELP-
Working on the Occupation page made me think a couple of thoughts I've often thought.
1) I feel like we ought to relax the convention of (usually) only linking to another article once per page. Clearly you don't want the page cluttered up with redundant links--but at the same time, we don't want to create extra work for the reader. Wikis are reference works, which are not necessarily read from beginning to end; why make people guess whether a given word is likely to be linked, and then hunt through a sometimes lengthy article to find the first mention? I propose that we balance readability and usability by linking to a given article no more than once per section.
2) There's another convention of identifying sources by CIRCLE, EXP, etc. Looking at "Occupation," it strikes me how much more helpful it is to identify the actual authors of the sources--as we do with HPL and AWD. If we identify the author as Clark Ashton Smith, for example, most people who know what the Lovecraft Circle is are going to know he was in it; whereas if we just have CIRCLE, only people who have memorized the titles of all of Smith's works are going to know it was him--and those people don't need any label at all, do they? I would suggest that at least for the best-known Mythos contributors, we extend the alphabetical convention--adding CAS and REH to HPL and AWD. For authors who go by two names, I don't know whether it's better to use initials or a surname: RB or Bloch (or BLOCH?), BL or Lumley/LUMLEY. Maybe the name would be more helpful? For lesser-known contributors, I would suggest just using their name.
Just for fun…

Everyone thinks lovecraft was insane, but what if lovecraft was a kind of prophet like Jesus and Moses and the books he made are his version of the bible and everything about Cthulhu and azathoth is actually real. I mean people thought Jesus and Moses was insane.
