The most merciful thing in the world... is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.
-H.P. Lovecraft
The City of Carathis is an island that exists beyond time and space. It is vast and populated by an assortment of creatures both loyal and treasonous to the Outer Gods. Enclosed by a massive curtain wall the only view of the horizon not blocked is a harbour perpetually shrouded in fog. Days are short with a hazy and leering red sun casting its malignant light to the accompaniment of muffled, maddening beats of vile drums; while nights are dominated by a pale moon that looms close and suggestively with the sound of thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.
This is the City of Carathis, home of the King in Yellow and the High Priest Not to Be Named. Devotional site of all to the Outer Gods, a place where the lesser creatures of reality may be close to their exalted lords. Those who congregate here are:
-Men of Leng
-Moonbeasts
-Mi-Go
-Byakhee
-Shoggoths
-Ghouls
-Mortal Man
Not all are willing; but all serve the Outer Gods:
-Azathoth; Nuclear Chaos, the Daemon Sultan, the Blind Idiot God and Lord of All Things
-Nyarlathotep; the Crawling Chaos and Herald of the Outer Gods
-Yog-Sothoth; the All-in-One and One-in-All
-Shub-Niggurath; the Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young
I have created a setting of madness, now I want to fill it with perverse pleasures and quite possibly with sanity rending intrigues. What happens now I know not; but here lies the birth of queer thoughts.
If someone has any questions regarding the setting, or potential plots, feel free to enquire.
If you don't know what the Cthulhu Mythos is or who H.P. Lovecraft is, enquire as to them before you enquire about the setting.
