What is the Cthulhu
The Cthulhu is a cosmic being that was thought up by H.P. Lovecraft and was introduced in his short story called “The Call of Cthulhu”. It was published by Weird Tales in 1928. Since its inception, the Cthulhu has become popular in cultural references. In this story, the Cthulhu is worshipped by members of a cult. It looks like an octopus mixed with a dragon and a human caricature. The name Cthulhu came from the universe where the Cthulhu and other entities like it existed, Cthulhu Mythos.
It is said Cthulhu was most likely born on the planet Vhoorl from Yep and Nub in the 23rd nebula. During his travels, Cthulhu went to Xoth which was a binary green star system. This is where he mated with Idh-yaa. Idh-yaa gave birth to four children named Ythogtha, Zothommog, Gthanothoa and Cthylla. The family then went to Earth where Cthulhu reproduced with his sister that went by the name of Kassogtha and she had two children called Nctolhu and Nctosa. At this point, Cthulhu and his family turned their attention to building R’lyeh which was the green stone city on the continent of Mu. This was before Ythogtha destroyed it. This is when the great war started between the Great Race of Yith, Mi-go, the Shoggoths, Elder Things, Flying polyps and of course, Cthulhu and his family. When all was said and done, they all decided to stop fighting and share Earth.
