The 11th Legion wrote: But God created himself out of the blue at God level. The chaos gods also created themselves out of no where as omnipotent gods. They're existence is what sparked the war in heaven between the necrons and the old ones, after all there couldn't be war without Khorne. The lovecraftian dieties ARE actual characters not plot devices. In rats in the walls the protagonist out right says he saw Nyarlethotep standing above a mountain of skulls. Yog-Sothoth impregnated a young woman. Both of these books where written by lovecraft and not another author expanding upon the lore. Azathoth is far beyond god and he willed himself into existence as well. If you don't like the idea of something willing itself into existence you should probably stay away from most fiction. You mean in reality? well believers tend to percieve God as always existing. in fiction, ehh, relying upon Yahweh is hilarious.

A character who only does things in mentions isn't exactly a character. and I'm not pretty sure "Azathoth willed himself into being" just look at what mythologies do, they take an idea of a primordial universe forming where some sort of sentience is born naturally, even in Egyptian mythology they have this primordial deity who starts everything other than his own will. He never created its own will, just its form.
