Cults of the Elder Mythos worship deific entities said to predate the universe itself. These are known as the Outer Gods and the Great Old Ones. While it is thought that these beings have no interest in mortal affairs, their cultists work hard to bring about their reawakening and give them their position as the true masters of existence.

Cults in the Pact Worlds system

In the Pact Worlds system, the cults of the Elder Mythos are most prevalent on the strange planet Aucturn, where they wage a constant battle with the forces loyal to the Dominion of the Black. The Elder Mythos cultists believe that the planet itself is a sleeping or unborn Great Old One and wish to nurture it to consciousness, while their opponents wish to use and subjugate the entity to their own ends. The best-known leader of the cults in the Pact Worlds system is Carsai, who lives in the Citadel of the Black.
