Pokethulhu logo.jpg





That is not dead which can eternal lie,
and with strange aeons even death may die!
To bring down our masters on an icy night,
And to claim the power when the stars are right . . .
Derleth!
Bloch!
Team Eibon! Stand fast to resist our rage . . .
Or flee to the safety of a new dark age!
