For anyone who has ever lost themselves in the cosmic horror of H.P. Lovecraft’s universe, the Great Old Ones are more than just fictional monsters—they are the haunting, fascinating heart of what makes Cthulhu Mythos so endlessly compelling.
These ancient beings, embodiments of chaos and evil, once ruled the entire cosmos. Now they lie sealed away, deep within the Earth or in the farthest corners of space. Though less powerful than the Outer Gods, they remain an existential threat to humanity, biding their time until the stars align, and they can rise again to reclaim their dominion.
Among these legendary Great Old Ones, one figure lurks in the shadows of North American folklore, feared and revered as the master of all serpents: Yig, the Father of Serpents.
Who is Yig, the Father of Serpents?
Spoken of in the oral traditions of tribes from the central plains, Yig is the serpent god that many believe later evolved into the widely worshiped feathered serpent deities of Mesoamerica—Quetzalcoatl and Kukulkan.
This semi-humanoid, grotesque devil is capricious and mercurial beyond measure. The terrifying tales whispered in the shadows tell of the brutal vengeance he unleashes upon any mortal who dares to scorn him, or harm the snakes that are his children and his domain.
Unlike the unfathomable Outer Gods that exist beyond human comprehension, Yig is a Great Old One deeply woven into the fabric of human myth. His legend is etched into ancient stories, his presence felt in the wild places of the world, and his gaze never strays far from the mortal realm he once ruled.
