Which Lovecraft God Are You?

This one's for JP and Ayn.

I am Hastur!

The Unspeakable One is the master of those who seek to unveil the mysteries of death. It is through meditation upon the Yellow Sign that the devotee of Hastur seeks transcendence to the city-realm of dim Carcosa. Through a complex series of visualizations that expand the aspirants void-consciousness, the final age will arise. Ruled by the ominous King in Yellow, a new stage of reality will come to fruition. Of the Olde Ones, Hastur is considered to be one of the most difficult to work with, his teachings being reserved exclusively for the Cthonian Adepts and Lords.

Which Great Old One are you?

In other news, I'm currently having my mind blown away by M.J. Harrison's Viriconium. Fantastic stuff. Makes me want to pick up my copy of Jack Vance's Tales of the Dying Earth and start reading.

(Which is theoretically impossible since a number of books have already aired their intention to gut me and leave me bleeding on the street if I decide to skip over them. Which books? Well, Harlan Ellison's Dangerous Visions 1 and 2 and Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell and...)
