Nyarlathotep used many aliases, some being dedicated to specific avatars. It should be noted that although he is referred to as the God of a Thousand Forms, this is likely only a metaphor: as he is known to visit planets across the cosmos, it is likely that he employs far more forms than a mere thousand.
