Nyarlathotep was one of the Great Old Ones given its name in the present universe by Rassilon. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties) He was considered the darkest and greatest of the Old Ones. Elektra, who despised Nyarlathotep most of all, hoped her child, Kronos, would be the champion of a united universe against him and his kind. (PROSE: The Quantum Archangel) The Seventh Doctor told Bernice Summerfield that he sincerely hoped never to meet Nyarlathotep. (PROSE: All-Consuming Fire)

Behind the scenes

  • Nyarlathotep originated in the horror stories of H. P. Lovecraft, in which he is an Outer God, which are even more powerful than Great Old Ones.
