C'thugha

Also known as Ka-Thigu-Ra and Ptah-Thu-Ga-Ra.

Worship of Ka-Thigu-Ra was suppressed continually in Egypt. This being was said to be an accursed spirit spawned of Ra's fallen seed and symbolized by a burning lamp called the Undying Flame.

Worshipers of Ka-Thigu-Ra hold the star Fomalhaut to be sacred and perform their rites under the night sky. The cult is known for waylaying travelers and forsaking the worship of any other gods.

Prayers to Ka-Thigu-Ra were carved in the obelisk found in Bannicker Park.

Through his insights into the Mythos, Curtis gleans the following information about C'thugha: Resembles giant ball of fire. Known by many to be / be associated with Fomalhaut (though some disagree). Served by Fthaggua (one of his progeny) which resembles an unsteady orb of blue flame. His other progeny is Aphoom-Zhah. Served by lesser forms of fire. Fthaggua's minions are crimson bursts of lightning or small points of light. His children ignite any flammable object. Children gain sustenance by draining energy of sentient beings. This draining causes them to spontaneously combust.
