Nyarlathotep

Found a spell that invokes this being on March 12, 1925.

Dr. Victor Lester remembers seeing a poster for the great Nyarlathotep during the group dream he shared in New York. The more he thinks about it, the more he remembers many posters plastering the walls of the post-apocalyptic world entreating everyone to come see the great Nyarlathotep.

Mary Elise St. Dennis' research uncovers references to him being a messenger, like Hermes or Loki.

A conversation with Amery Wendy-Smith on March 15, 1925 connects Nyarlathotep to several other referenced beings. See aka section below.
