Yog-Sothoth is an antagonist in The Loud House and Cthulhu Mythos crossover the Revival duology. Summoned by Maya Lottie/Nyarlathotep to continue the apocalypse in his steed, Yog-Sothoth becomes the secondary antagonist of the sequel story The King in Yellow who adopted a resurrected Cthulhu in the hopes of using him to defeat his wicked half-brother Hastur.
Biography[]
Yog-Sothoth, the All-in-One is an Outer God who is the supreme lord over time and space. As such, he is an omniscient being often summoned by his followers in things like knowledge. According to him, Yog-Sothoth had also sired several children over the years, two in particular being Wilbur Whateley and the eponymous Dunwich Horror. He nonchalantly states that he ate his children whenever they proved to be inadequate as pawns of his will.
In the crossover fics, Nyarlathotep summons Yog-Sothoth when the Necronomicon was back in his possession. Upon his demise, Yog-Sothoth arrives to the earthly realm and tries to continue the destruction of the Earth. He returns later in the sequel to both stop Hastur and to have Cthulhu destroy the Earth only to have his physical avatar destroyed and presumably returned to the dimension outside of the ordered universe.
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- Uses his powers over space-time to erase the Loud siblings and Patrick from existence before being banished back into the void.
- In the sequel, he kills Cthulhu's daughter/birth mother and raises him.
- He subjects Cthulhu to a torturous period of training summoning shoggoths to nearly beat his adopted son to near death only to heal him later.
- When he knew of a traitor in the ranks of Deep Ones, he forces Cthulhu to kill them despite them serving as his family.
- He teams up with the Loud family to defeat the King in Yellow but tries to have Cthulhu turn on them.
Trivia[]
- Typically, with exception to Nyarlathotep, the gods of the Mythos are typically depicted by contributors to the universe as being either mindless beings or beyond human comprehension. As such, Yog-Sothoth is often painted as being the least malevolent of the Outer Gods. In the crossover, however, Yog-Sothoth and the other gods of the pantheon are given more human-like sapience and come to understand humanity to varying degrees.
