Ubbo-Sathla

Ubbo-Sathla, also known as The Unbegotten Source or The Demiurge, is an Outer God which features in the H.P. Lovecraft-inspired Cthulhu Mythos.

Description
A colossal mass of protoplasmic goo, Ubbo-Sathla is a creature which has dwelt on Earth since its formation. Constantly spewing forth a plethora of primitive organisms, some believe that this creature was the source of all life on the planet, and that one day it will emerge to re-absorb all of its biomass. Interestingly, despite its prolific generation of new life, anything this horrific monstrosity actually touches will thereafter remain bereft of life for all eternity.

Ubbo-Sathla is said to be the guardian of a set of tablets carved from star stone which contain the combined celestial knowledge of the Elder Gods.

History
Nothing is known of the origins of Ubbo-Sathla, but it is currently imprisoned somewhere beneath the Earth’s crust, waiting for its release so that it may consume every living thing on the planet.
