Nyarlathotep: The Faceless God

Also known as "The Beast" or "The Sphinx," The Faceless God is one of Nyarlathotep's masks. He takes the form of a sphinx with no face, only the endless void of the cosmos.

 

While some of Nyatlathotep's masks are designed to put people into false ease, or terrify them into madness, this one was a god worshipped by the ancient egyptians, and instrumental in forming their civilization. Legend has it that it returned in the fourteenth century, calling itself "The Beast," and inspiring its cult once more.
