YOG SOTHOTH •

"Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate. Past, present, future, all are one in Yog-Sothoth. He knows where the Old ones broke through of old, and where They shall break through again. He knows where They have trod earth's fields, and where They still tread them, and why no one can behold Them as They tread"

Like many Lovecraftian gods, Yog-Sothoth has many different appearances throughout the various stories of the Mythos, by various authors. However, there seems to be a common agreement that Yog-Sothoth visually manifests as a mass of glowing orbs, with eyes or tendrils in some versions, and in others simply the orbs. It is heavily implied that Yog-Sothoth is omniscient, and is locked outside the universe, meaning he knows and see all of space-time all at once, which means there is no secret hidden from Yog-Sothoth.
