“	You speak of your older sister. Surely you are more of a young goddess than that, Nyx! What point is there in grieving her death? She died because it was her time. Her life served its purpose - to give care to you, and then become my nourishment.	”
–Azathoth to Nyx.

Azathoth, also known as the Blind Idiot God, the Daemon Sultan, and the Nuclear Chaos, is a cosmic and boundless deity of colossal proportion and the great and all-powerful ruler of the Old Ones. He is omnipotent beyond the power of the Great Old Ones, such as Cthulhu, and even his fellow Outer Gods, including Yog-Sothoth and Yibb-Tstll, and all other beings and is the sole most powerful being in the entire Lovecraftian pantheon.

He is the main antagonist of the War of the Gods Arc of the Story, High School DxD: Mightverse. He's later a supporting character/antagonist in the Spin-Off: The Neo Outer Gods.

Overview

“	here were, in such voyages, incalculable local dangers; as well as that shocking final peril which gibbers unmentionably outside the ordered universe, where no dreams reach; that last amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the centre of all infinity—the boundless daemon-sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin, monotonous whine of accursed flutes; to which detestable pounding and piping dance slowly, awkwardly, and absurdly the gigantic ultimate gods, the blind, voiceless, tenebrous, mindless Other Gods whose soul and messenger is the crawling chaos Nyarlathotep.	”
–H.P. Lovecraft about Azathoth, The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath.

Azathoth is the all-powerful ruler and the Progenitor of the Old Ones and the rest of the Lovecraftian Pantheon. He is the father of Nyarlathotep, Magnum Innominandum, Magnum Tenebrosum and Cxaxukluth. He has been one of the entities that has be seen as a symbol for the Primordial Chaos, along with Chaos and many others.

Azathoth's precise appearance is only hinted at throughout the Mythos, and indeed may be unknowable by mortal beings. It is described as occupying a position outside of the universe, where it is attended by a cohort of alien servants who continually bathe it with the sounds of pipes and drums. Though it is the ruler and creator of all existence, it is described as "a blind idiot god", oblivious to the universe and the beings within it.

Aside from the title of the novel fragment, The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath was the first source by the false prophet H.P. Lovecraft to mention Azathoth.

Appearance

There can be no definite description of Azathoth because everybody envisions him differently and he is always changing. His body is said to be composed of all the bright stars of the visible universe, but his face is veiled in darkness. His true form is changed to be the most eldritch of the Old Ones.

In his human form, Azathoth has the appearance of a middle-aged, handsome looking tall man with a long face, broad chin, and pronounced cheekbones. He has long black hair, which reaches to his lower back, and reddish-brown eyes with thin eyebrows. He has well-kept mutton chops and a connected mustache, but is otherwise clean-shaven. His usual attire consists of a white, double-breasted trench coat, which has the Old Ones symbol on the middle, with large buttoned cuffs and lapels, white trousers, and trench boots. Over this, he wears a tattered, ankle-length maroon-black cloak, which has a red ribbon near the neck and is fastened to the left with a single large button.

Personality

Azathoth's mind was destroyed due to its power, so it holds no real personality. It holds no intellect, no reasoning power, control, malice or empathy. It is a sentient fool that could obliterate reality and not even register or realize.

Powers & Abilities

Immense Strength: As the oldest of the Outer Gods, Azathoth is undoubtedly the strongest god of the Lovecraftian Pantheon and will continue to be so until Cthulhu eventually consumes him. According to Chronos, he makes his son Nyarlathotep look like a puny school bully in comparison. He was able to throw Issei and his companions around like ragdolls, displaying impressive strength. None of the Elder Gods could keep up with him in a one-on-one with the exceptions of Nyx and Shiro.

Nigh-Omnipotence: As a Ruler of the Outer Gods, Azathoth possesses a higher and much less powerful variation of his nigh-omnipotence.

• Questionable Omnipotence: All of reality is Azathoth's dream, including the multiverses and the infinite spaces. Even Yog-Sothoth, a being who all of reality is just a part of, is a part of Azathoth's dream. If Azathoth wakes up, then all of reality will cease to exist. However, it's unknown if Azathoth is part of some bigger plan, or how strong he really is.
• Future Prediction: Azathoth can see everything that is to occur from the present moment into the far-flung future. He can everything that lies within that gaze. Rather than seeing a linear future, Azathoth observes all possible futures at once like countless grains of sand in the wind, and can thus act accordingly using the knowledge he has gained to anticipate and counter his opponents.
• Reality Warping: Azathoth could warp the reality around he into anything and everything that him desires, as long as they fit into the natural order set by the Primordial Entities. He could easily warp the Mount Meru and turned it into various worlds just to show Indra.
• Apex Manipulation: Azathoth can induce the apexes/climaxes of anything, including power over a country, a story, a series of events, etc., manipulating the highest point of excitement, importance and intensity inserted into whatever is being dealt with.
• Vocal Narration: Azathoth can warp reality by vocally narrating, as if telling a story. As he speaks, reality rewrites itself to make the events happen. For example, they could tell a story of a hero stopping a bank robbery, and the events would play out just like that. Unlike other entities who can do the same, he has no limit to how much she can bend the multiverse by his speech.
• Possible 4th Wall Awareness: It is possible that Azathoth may be aware of his own fictional existence to some extend, though it's not confirmed.

Shadow Manipulation: Azathoth is able to create portals using his Shadows, however unlike other Outer Gods, Azathoth does not use a stance to summon a portal, he instead can use it at will without any movement. Azathoth can even choose the individuals he wishes to summon.

Immense Durability: As one of the Outer Gods, Azathoth is a considerably resilient combatant, piercing his own throat and impaling himself with a energy blade during his fight with Izanagi without slowing down or showing any signs of physical strain afterward.

Immense Speed: During his battles, Azathoth is very fast, able to outmaneuver a number of relentless assaults from Issei in his True Diabolos Dragon God form. He is able to move faster than the eye can follow, such as when he successfully avoided Issei's Sonic Booster Knight.

Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Azathoth possesses a certain of proficiency in hand-to-hand combat. He was able to quickly subdue and pin down Hyoudou Issei, who had his Diabolos Dragon's Armor active at the time, before the latter could react or defend himself properly.

Master Swordsman: Azathoth is proficient enough in swordsmanship to effortlessly clash with and repel a ultimate god-class combatant. In battle, he can easily perform a take-down on his opponent with one hand while wielding his sword in the other.

Genius-Level Intellect: It's unknown on how truly "intelligent" it is. It is stated to be the Supreme Intelligence and is likely omniscient due to its all-encompassing nature.

Flight: Azathoth demonstrates the ability to stay afloat in mid-air.

Quotes

• "Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes." - Howard Philips Lovecraft about Azathoth.

• "Come than Izanagi, only one shall be walking away tonight and it certainly won't be you." - Azathoth to Izanagi before their battle.

• "Hahahaha, was this it? Was this the really the power of the Father of Shintoism? Your teacher would be oh-so disappointed. You should learn true power, Izanagi, for while you are strong on your own, you are nothing to me." - Azathoth to Izanagi.
  • "I am not done yet, you abomination. I will never rest until your heretic life is extinguished." - Izanagi to Azathoth before the former does his final attack.
    • "Oh course, leaving you alive would prove problematic to me. Farewell Izanagi and don't worry about your precious Japan, I will take good care of it." - Azathoth to Izanagi before the latter was "killed".

• "Was this all you had, Izanagi? Simply pathetic. It seems like then even second-generation primordial entities cannot even defeat me. Like I said before Izanagi, you don't have to worry about your precious Japan for I will take very good care of it. HahahahaHAHAHAHA" - Azathoth mocking Izanagi before walking.
  • "I-is this it for me? Somehow, with just one hit... I'm already... Already... D-damn it... Amaterasu... Izanami... Master… Just like that, I... I've failed you..." - Izanagi.
  • "My my, you do talk a lot when no one is listing, do you? How about you just shut up and die... hmm?" - Azathoth to Izanagi.
    • "No...my body... It feels like it's splitting apart. Like any instant...I'll scatter into a million pieces. But... Deep, deep in my soul. There's a burning feeling I can't describe. A burning feeling that WON'T let me die. This isn't just about gods anymore, is it? If you get past me, you'll... You'll destroy them all, won't you? Gods... Mortals... Everyone.... Everyone's hopes. Everyone's dreams. Vanquished in an instant. But I WON'T let you do that. Right now, everyone in the world... *Izanagi starts to shine brightly* I can feel their hearts beating as one. And we all have ONE goal. To destroy YOU. Azathoth. Here, I promise you. *Izanagi's divinity appears to run rampant* For the sake of the whole world, no the whole multiverse... I, Izanagi, will strike you down! *Izanagi transforms*" - Izanagi's declaration to Azathoth.
      • "What is this? His divinity, it is increasing. Could it be... *Smirks before turning into a battle-thirsty grin* YES, IT IS! AT LAST, YOU ARE USING YOUR TRUE POWER! THE POWER OF THE ORIGINAL GOD! COME THEN, LET US END THIS BATTLE! *Azathoth's charges his energy* COME AND DIE, IZANAGI-NO-OKAMI!" - Azathoth before rushing to Izanagi.
        • "Very well then, I shall not falter anymore. Come Azathoth, you're gonna try a little harder than THAT." - Izanagi to Azathoth before their second battle begins.
