Wazzhophoth



Wazzhophoth, Wasshophoth, The Lord of the Locusts, a Yagathian god of temptation and infestation who persuaded the mortals by releasing diseases on numerous worlds destroying entire cities and inhabitants of his the way.

He was said to use hordes of locusts in his battles with the Master of Masters that were described as being large as vultures and fierce as lions.

Dachuggoth gave him the power of manipulation and also cursed Wazzhophoth for his greedy and vicious nature by making him sleep during the day and become more powerful by night.

Mythology
"'The dreadful and evil acts that Wazzhophoth did in the eyes of the Master of Masters is unfathomable how he could have a soul of ice...The scorpions and snakes are not as cruel as his deeds were... His heinous and fierce attempts to cultivate a perfect breed that was already vanishing were carried out in vain...The Lord of Masters withered the gruesome and malodorous stench of his evil acts inflicted by his twisting tendrils upon mortals...Standing tall and filled with an insatiable hunger for power Wazzhophoth the Terrible recited in a hateful and dreadful voice the incantations of pure hatred...The statuesque god with shadowy wings, four tentacles, and quivering jaws...Then yet Wazzhophoth volatile in his ways the towering chaos encloses the bestial shape and he still released the locusts upon his worshippers...' Eshermekite Papyrus Scrolls"

Wazzhophoth gave the Yagathians "Knowledge of Immortality" and hated the Astral Masters for hindering his blasphemous and disgusting incantations stirring up strife amongst the Eternal Master and Master of Wisdom.

His anger turned into hatred for the rest of the Masters and was later punished for his constant violent behavior.

Wazzhophoth was cast in the lower levels of the Outer Dimensions where he remained there being tortured and mangled.

He later escaped from his prison and then continued with the rituals of tempting the Yagathian race into seeking power rather than embracing morality.

Cult of Wazzhophoth
According to the Eshermekite Papyrus Scrolls, the Cult of Wazzhophoth was carried out by the Yagathians and then it spread throughout their empire. Until one day a cataclysmic event resulted in the deaths of thousands of Yagathian adherents. The Lord of Masters unleashed his wrath upon the rest of the sinners who were part of the group.

Rise of Wazzhophoth
The Wazzhophoth Rites were passed down across the Eshermekite Empire in the early founding of the cult that was known for being secretive and isolated from the rest of the city.

It was passed from a priest to student and was said to be a certain ceremonial sacrifice for the new year and this included abductions of virgins and slaves.

This worship never lasted for a century because the priests were accused of being tempted by a demon instead of a god and were eventually put to death by the High Priest.

The Banishment of Wazzhophoth
Wazzhophoth was summoned by the Demon Lord and the Astral Masters warned him not to have him watch the Dark Abyss rather than to punish the Fallen God for his treachery.

This led to a conflict between both the Outer Dimensions and the Dark Abyss which was the plan of Wazzhophoth in the beginning and caused a rift in the Universe.
