== Biography ==
=== In the 925th Universe ===
{{main|Nyarlathotep (925th Universe)}}
One version of Nyarlathotep existed in the [[925th Universe]]. He “was not very honest”. When she was fourteen, around 2012, budding occultist [[Lady Satan (925th Universe)|Marietta Over-There]] worshipped Nyarlathotep. He claimed to her that by sacrificing her cousin [[Jenny Over-There (925th Universe)|Jenny]]'s cat [[Grober]] in a ritual, she could summon [[Yog-Sothoth (925th Universe)|Yog-Sothoth]] from his slumber, which would end the world. Marietta went through with the deed, driving a decade-long rift between her and Jenny but entirely failing to summon Yog-Sothoth or end the world. Seeing how she had hurt Jenny, Marietta ceased to worship Nyarlathotep and turned herself around to become the heroic occultist [[Lady Satan (925th Universe)|Lady Satan]].

=== On the Interdimensional Pride Council ===
{{main|Nyarlathotep (A Series of Queer Events)}}
One version of Nyarlathotep sat on the [[Interdimensional Pride Council]] by 2022, with [[The Man in Grey (925th Universe)|the Man in Grey]] being excited to be rubbing shoulders with him when he was appointed to the Council by the [[Great Higher-Up]]s as their representative. After the upheaval which proceeded from the Man in Grey's dismissal, [[Professor Wogglebug]] believed that Nyarlathotep would become head of the Council, although he allowed for the possibility that [[the Scarecrow]] would get the appointment instead. A week or so after these events, this same version of Nyarlathotep attended [[Jenny Over-There (925th Universe)|Jenny Over-There]] and [[Dynamite Thor]]'s Pride party at [[Professor Helvetius's Convenient Pride Decorations Shop]]. He seemed to have developed a crush on fellow Council-member [[Dionysus]], and although he was initially reluctant to act on it, the two ended up dancing together by the night's end.
