Cthugha is a colossal, sentient mass of living plasma and sentient fire. Often depicted as a roaring, star-like sphere of incandescent heat, this entity resides within the star Fomalhaut. Unlike typical terrestrial fires, Cthugha’s combustion is metaphysical; it ignores the need for oxygen and fuel, instead consuming the very fabric of local reality to sustain its infernal existence.

“To witness Cthugha is to witness the premature death of a star. It does not burn matter; it transfigures it into radiant, agonizing energy.” — Fragment recovered from the Miskatonic University Archives.


The entity operates under strict cosmic-arcane protocols. When Cthugha manifests or is summoned into the material plane, the following laws govern the interaction:

  1. Reality Anchoring: Any manifestation must adhere to the foundational physical and occult laws inherent to the Lovecraftian cosmology.
  2. Thermal Displacement: Ambient temperatures within a 50-meter radius will spike instantaneously, causing rapid molecular instability in non-heat-resistant materials.
  3. Sentient Propagation: The entity is capable of projecting “sparks”—smaller, semi-autonomous fragments of its consciousness—to act as scouts or harbingers of its arrival.

SCP/异常世界观融合:

At present, there is no formal Foundation-sanctioned containment protocol, primarily due to the entity’s inability to be restrained by conventional matter. Current research initiatives are focused on:

  • Thermodynamic Dampening: Utilizing experimental cryo-stasis fields to simulate the vacuum of space, theoretically forcing the entity back into a dormant state.
  • Cultist Surveillance: Monitoring specific occult forums for the usage of the “Flame of Fomalhaut” summoning incantation.
  • Data Sanitization: Removing all references to the summoning rituals from public digital archives to prevent accidental invocations.

Researchers, please update this file if a breach occurs within your sector or if evidence of Cthugha’s influence is detected in urban centers.
