Cthulhu is a Great Old One, trapped in a endless sleep underneath the sea in the city R'lyeh. | He has the head of a octopus, and a scaly body with wings on his back. His state of endless sleep comes from a war against the Elder Beings, which ended with R'lyeh sinking into the bottom of the sea. One day he will rise to rule over the earth. |

Hastur, The Unspeakable, is a Great Old One and Cthulhu's half-brother. | Not much is known about Hastur, but he is known to take the form of a King in yellow robes, wearing a mask. Like most Great Old Ones, he is capable of taking any form he desires. |

J'zahar, Gatekeeper of The Abyss, is the bastard offspring of Hastur. | Having a desire for power, and not wanting exile to the stars, J'zahar reached out beyond time and space to achieve his freedom. The results were similar powers to that of Yog-Sothoth, and the punishment of eternally guarding his imprisoned fellow deities. |
