Religious Figure

The Resume

    Born in Deepest cosmic space
    Pagan god described in the writings of HP Lovecraft
    High priest of an ancient race of gods known as the Old Ones
    At present lies entombed/imprisoned in his capital city of R'leyh which is somewhere at the bottom of the South Pacific Ocean
    According to his followers, 'In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu lies dreaming'
    and, 'That is not dead which can eternal lie and with strange eons even death may die'

Why Cthulhu might be annoying:

    When the stars are right his followers are going to raise him and there is literally going to be hell to pay.
    He wants to teach his followers about 'killing and reveling with joy.'
    He's been described as having shape but not being made of matter. Whatever the hell that means.
    Nobody has ever seen him. All descriptions of him are based on the dreams of a lunatic.
    He's the size of a mountain, with a scaly 'anthropoid' body, a head like an octopus, and having vestigial wings.
    He's a telepath.
    If he's a god, why does he need followers to help him?

Why Cthulhu might not be annoying:

    His father (sort of) is named Nug.
    Unlike many clergy he's not after your money.
    He was either imprisoned by the Old One's enemies, the Elder Gods or the power of stars. Either way he's not unbeatable.
    Ramming him with a ship will get him off your back at least temporarily.
