Who is Eihort? What has it done?[]
Eihort, otherwise known as the Pale Beast or the God of the Labyrinth, is a Great Old One created by Ramsey Campbell. It manifests as a gelatinous creature with multiple, spindly legs and eyes manifesting all over its body. It dwells in a series of tunnels underneath the Severn Valley in England.
If it were to hunt down a human, it gives the human a bargain: either they accept its Chosen, or be killed. Those choosing the latter are killed with a single smashing of its gigantic fist. Those that chose the former? Don't fare any better. They are impregnated with Eihort's brood, and its offspring eat the host from the inside out. In Call of Cthulhu, a tabletop game, the investigators in the module see the results of a woman who had refused Eihort's deal. She was crushed to a bloody pulp.
Worse? It is said that at the end of time in the future, Eihort will overthrow humanity alongside its offspring. Yay?
Mitigating factors?[]
Much like other eldritch abominations like Y'golonac or Nyarlathotep, Eihort also has an understanding of human morality as evidenced by its ability to communicate with humans in its one-sided bargains.
Heinous standard[]
As a Great Old One, Eihort is less powerful than the Outer God Nyarlathotep, and fellow Great Old One Y'golonac is a serial rapist and killer, Eihort has a pretty nasty niche of subjecting human beings to be eaten from the inside out by its offspring.
