LOVECRAFTOBER: DAY TWENTY-THREE: HASTUR

The King in Yellow, The Unspeakable One

Affiliation: The Court of Yog-Sothoth

A fan favorite makes his debut! Hastur, the King in yellow is finally on the scene at last!

The design for Hastur was taken from the fact he is often shown manipulating artists or involved in the arts, so I felt he fashioned himself after classical Greek statues, wearing a mask to help give the appearance of one who is vain with appearances. Also, has arms for days and can manifest just as many.

The Golden sun of the Court of Yog-Sothoth, the most active and powerful spawn of Yog, Hastur takes immense pride in how he conducts his business and mortal followers, spreading his sign across the universe. Known to be a bit of a show-off, not taking things seriously at times, and obsessed with well...himself, sometimes he can come off as annoying to some of the older horrors out there. Very defensive of his kin though and does not hesitate to throw down with elder gods when he's in a full fury. Just don't mention a certain someone's name or he can get very depressed and upsetti very quick....

BEFRIENDING AN ELDRITCH BEING

He is simply an Outer God who walked the Earth in the guise of a human being, as he was tired of being cooped up in his realm.

He is known by numerous names, but for the time being, he is known as Daemon.

He rarely interacts with humans – so no one knows what he is – but Daemon couldn’t ignore a young woman sobbing on the sidewalk.

‘carter, you’re but a piece of art... literally‘

it’s... too long to explain, actually. wish i could hide some drawings under the spoiler but we can’t have everything at once

[sukea69]

Before I go. Founders lovecraft au would go so hard. I think izuna could do a good nyarlathotep.

Hsrm is the entire concept of the colour out of space, I cannot explain this

[bmpdraws]

My take on MLP au lets go. I couldn't decide whether I wanted the King in Yellow and 'Yellow' to be dragons or ponies, so. They're just both. John likely also has a pony form I'm just indecisive so nothing for that yet.

[alistairs-raven]

I didn't know I needed Rana as Cthulhu in my life. Awesome concept!

Sketches of Lovecraftian Bane..

Ooh and I also made a sketch of Rana (one of someone's OC by @renek-bane )in Lovecraftian version, I'm still figuring out to draw her feet...probably will draw her feet with humanoid palms lol, to make sure her looks more Lovecraftian.

Anyway, I try to combine Rana with most well known Lovecraftian creature, the Cthulhu.

MORE LOVECRAFT!!!JUSTICE TO LOVECRAFT

Please?🥺

Your point is?

Self-Aware! Howard Phillips Lovecraft x GN! Reader

Description: There's a man, standing on your front door. He is acussing you of betraying humanity... You can't understand his point. a.k.a. Guiding Light don't care, that, because of them, a literal Cthulhu appeared in Real World.

Warning: OOC. English is my second language. Lovecraft is an Eldrich Horror. Short and random.

____

Someone was knocking on the door.

In normal life, knocking isn't something out of the ordinary, unless you are living alone in the middle of nowhere.

The Mansion wasn't in the middle of nowhere, but, it was outside the town (countryside, if you want to call it that), and there weren't any neighbors nearby, that will want to pay a visit. And, as long as Goncharov was aware, no one was waiting for a food delivery today.

An unwelcome guest was knocking on the door. And an unwelcome guest brings unrest. But, self-appointed chamberlain of the manor can't just abandon his duties and ignore the guest. Besides, Alexander, Gide, Mark and John were cleaning up the backyard, and the music they put "for a good working mood" were blasting through speakers, so, it was impossible to pretend, that no one's home and the guest should probably go away.

With a plastic fake smile, Goncharov opened the door.

A man was standing on the porch. About your age, he nervously fiddled with the collar of his jacket. After seeing Ivan, man almost jumped. His eyes widen in shock.

"Oh... I didn't expect to... Can I speak to [Y/N], please?"

Goncharov frowned.

"And who is asking?"

It wasn't the most polite way to address a guest, but right now Ivan didn't care.

The man gulped, he was sweating.

"I am attending the same university as them. There is something important I need to discuss with them."

Ivan raised an eyebrow.

"About what?"

The man... Student gulped.

"About after lectures activities. I can only discuss it with them. Please, can you call them?"

Ivan still wasn't convinced. What with all this secrecy? He was ready to send unwanted guest away, when Alexander, Gide, Mark and John suddenly appeared from around the corner.

Pushkin huffed.

"Hey, Vanya, are you slacking off? What happened with perfect chamberlain?"

Ivan, forgetting about the guest for a second, turned towards Alexander, hissing.

"I am doing my job! And my duties are telling me to send this one away!"

The guest whimpered.

"Please, I just want to speak with [Y/N]!"

Ivan was ready to send him off, when he heard another voice. This one was coming from the manor, right behind his back.

"Who is calling me?" You stepped next to Ivan, looking at him. He pointed at the guest.

"Him, Dear Teaberry."

You looked at the guest. Your face became blank.

"Oh, it's you. Need something?"

The man gasped for air. With trembling finger he pointed at you.

"JACUZZI!"

The small company became quiet. All of you started at the man with confused expressions. Meanwhile, man repeated himself.

"JACUZZI! You are a traitor to humanity!"

Confusion didn't disappear, until Gide slowly asked.

"Do you mean 'J'accuse'¹?"

The guest glared at Gide and pointed at you again.

"Doesn't matter. They betrayed their own kind!"

The guest's screaming attracted the attention of the rest of the BSD Cast, who now were gathering behind you in the lobby.

"Really?! Best Assistant, why you didn't mention that? Maybe, we could help!"

You gave the guest a side eye, before turning towards Ranpo's direction.

"You could help. Can you, please, fetch Howard?"

You looked back at the guest.

"And back to you, Castro²..."

You cleared your throat and pointed at him.

"C’est l’hôpital qui se moque de la charité³!"

Everyone became silent (and no one noticed proud looks on André, Paul and Arthur faces). You continued.

"Calling me a traitor? And who tried to sacrifice me to a Cthulhu? You and your friends!"

"THEY DID WHAT?!"

You and Castro almost fell on the ground because of the sound wave.

You shrugged.

"Well..."

_____

You were bored. You were here for three hours already, tied up, listening to a bad chanting in R'lyehian. That cult (just a bunch of students from your university) were trying to summon... anyone from The Great Ones. Right now, they were trying to summon Cthulhu.

You yawned.

With a loud noise, a familiar tall man, with tentacles instead of arms, appeared in the middle of the room.

Howard looked around. His gaze stopped on you.

"Ahf'?"⁴

________

Castro stepped back.

"We... We didn't thought that Cthulhu will really appear! Besides, you are the one, who called it "old octopus" and promised it an ice cream!"

"[Y/N], we are out of ice cream."

Lovecraft appeared right behind you. Castro let out a scream.

"Cthulhu!"

Howard didn't look at him, instead choosing to poke your head.

"[Y/N], can we get more ice cream?"

You looked up.

"We will get ice cream after I deal with this little cultist. So, Castro, what's your point? Why you decided to go all the way here to accuse me of something ridiculous?"

Castro finally found his voice.

"You are friends with The Great Ones! You brought one to our world! We all doomed!"

Lovecraft slowly blinked.

"Aren't you the one, who kidnapped My Dear Treasure? And aren't you the one, who summoned me?"

You nodded.

"Mhm, it was him. And by the way, Castro, once again, what exactly is your problem? I am not planning to destroy humanity."

Castro looked like a kicked puppy.

"But, Cthulhu..."

You shrugged.

"Howard is harmless... Hey!"

Lovecraft, who was tired of waiting, suddenly pick you up. With his tentacles. Not paying attention to anyone else, he starts walking.

"Y' ulnah bthnkornah. C' bug ng get bthnkornah."⁵

Lovecraft didn't t care about the rest of BSD Cast, or scared Castro. You just go limp in his hold. In five minutes he will let you go, so that little secret will stay a secret.

"We won't be gone for long! Take care, everyone!"

You two quickly disappeared.

Castro nervously gulped. He was ready to go away, when someone grabbed his shoulder.

"So, care to tell us about the kidnapping thing, dear guest?"

Ivan's smile didn't promise anything good to Castro.

For the dozen time today, Castro gulped.

If only he slept until tomorrow and skipped today.

Um, hello? There's some unfinished works of all this time (and one art of Pregame!Veronika).

1-2 - Royalty AU with a wedding of convenience (the idea of this belongs to my friend) 3 - Inspired by song "Unrequited Love and He Who Sleeps Beneath" (By Steampianist). I really wanna make something with this idea. 4 - Just Whit. Stressed Whit. 5 - Pregame AU. Will I end this sketches? Idk, maybe.

*Lovecrafts your Risotto*

Take this as an Easter gift.

I based him off the King in Yellow.

I'm having fun with these, I'd love to do more! (please tell me who to do next I need human interaction)

I also did Diavolo

[sevequiem]

Alternative Universes ♥

[i-write-sin-not-tragedy]

Since drawing characters has felt rough i decided to make Husk Angel and Alastors necronomicon's for the lovecraft au♡ including which god each of them is.

I based them heavily on the actual sigils used in lovecraft but tried to give my own flair as well as make them suit the characters a bit more (Angels, especially, i took a lot of liberty with)

LOVECRAFTOBER: DAY TWO

NYARLATHOTEP: The Crawling Chaos; Stalker Among the Stars, God of a Thousand Forms, Soul and Messenger of the Outer Gods

Affiliation: The Court of Azathoth

The top picture is a newer concept of him to try and neaten up a few things, but overall, Nya's design has long since been finalized for a while, but still wanted to give em some love as they are the primary character in the Live, Laugh, and Lovecraft story, or at least the most commonly occurring outer god! (Included some older doodles and emotes of the crawling chaos for funsies!)

The Crawling Chaos is known to be rather cold and does not like for other gods to get in his way or cause him any sort of inconvenience and is known to be rather bad-tempered in most situations. Also one of the more apathetic outer gods in that he has very little care or concept for other beings, even other gods. However, he is known to care in his strange way at times and can be terribly vindictive in other cases.

Nya is the only one able to interpret the insane babbles of Azathoth and thus primarily works as a messenger of the mad idiot god's will... there are very few beings that would call Nya friend and even fewer that Nya themselves would call a friend.

Danny Phantom eldritch/lovecraft mythos AU

So I just had this idea randomly while laying there getting stabbed repeatedly (electrolysis) and tbh I haven't put much thought into it beyond that but hey i figured why not share it:

AU of Dany Phantom where instead of ghosts, it's more eldritch stuff inspired by the Lovecraft mythos and adjacent material

Maddie and Jack are the classic archetype of "investigators tormented by the eldritch knowledge they've learned"

But hey on the bright side that knowledge lets them figure out how to make things that would otherwise be impossible

Instead of trying to make a portal, they were trying to make a device to seal a portal/dimensional rift

Danny still gets caught in an unintentional activation of the device his parents were making, like in the original

But instead of becoming a half-ghost, he has eldritch energy stuff from the rift sorta stapled into him

He isn't technically human anymore, but he can shape himself into an approximately human body well enough that he's just a little unsettling to look at instead of visibly monstrous so he can still act like a normal(ish) person

Technically any other similarly intelligent eldritch entity probably could do the same pretending-to-be-human thing too, but Danny having been a human kid for his whole life before that means it's a lot easier for him

Instead of "going ghost" he just kinda... unfurls his eldritch-y-ness

He probably struggles a bit to "detransform" actually, since his human form is more like a disguise than a fully distinct form he can switch between

I guess the ghosts would be replaced by the more minor entities from the mythos? I'm not super familiar with a lot of the mythos stuff tbh

and maybe dealing with human cultists too

The story's version of Amity Park probably takes a bunch of inspiration from Innsmouth

Oh that just made me think "The Shadow Over Amity Park" could be a fun title for this maybe

There needs to be more cryptid Mysterion content

There needs to be more of Mysterion/Kenny going through literal lovecraftian horrors trying to find the secret of his curse
