"The obscene idol grotesquely squats on top of a rough hewn granite pillar.
The fire around it crackles and roars high. We are joyously dancing around it
all; hands linked, half naked, we are whole, laughing with joy and desire.
"The best is yet to come...."
Bored by an ordinary, nothing life? Searching for excitement, power?
Seeking a higher cause, one worthy of your very life? The Campus
Crusade for Cthulhu offers all this, AND MORE!
How does Tall, Green, and Slimy sound to you? Pretty scarey.
But you can handle it. You will have to learn how to.
You will learn to yearn for the soft
squeezing caress of undulating tentacles. Or you will
be eternally sorry that you did not.
Think that you are searching for meaning still?
Well, search no more! We
have found you. Soon, when you expect it least, our agents will contact you.
Soon you will not have to worry about anything. Ever again.
We know more about you than you can ever learn about us. And who are we?
We are both the oldest and the newest college organization in existence.
We are sponsored by the ancient Cthulhu Cult, which predates all history.
Before the United States of America, before ancient Greece, before Atlantis.
Before the first Illuminati attempts at world conquest our tentacles had
an unbreakable grip upon the entire Earth. We have never let go.
Ever since we were pre-men, the Cthulhu Cult has served the Great Old
Ones, the unspeakable horrors of legend. It is they who lived eons before
they brought life upon this Earth. They came from distant unknown space,
falling out of the sky upon our virgin Earth.
Through covert means, their lurking shapes held sway over our young planet,
guiding the course of to serve their own needs. They destroyed the dinosaurs
when they were done with them, and so made way for the first men.
The Old Ones died three million years past, gone into the Earth, under
the sea. Dead they were, yet undead, their dreaming still bodies reached
out, and so molded the minds of our distant ancestors. The greatest of their
High Priests, whom we know as Cthulhu, lay deep within his sunken R'lyeh
Temple and guided all of history through the Cult. Ever we have prepared
the world for the day they shall return. Then the world shall fall under
the clinging grip of the Great Old Ones reborn. And only those who serve
them in this life shall survive. For a time.
That is why we worship Cthulhu, why you cannot afford not to. Ever we
await his return from his tomb at R'lyeh. For we know that the words ever
hold true,
"That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange eons even death
may die."
The history of our club is a strange and wondrous one; early on in this
century the ever growing Cthulhu Cult founded the Campus Crusade at Miskatonic
University, the hallowed center of learning located among the misty hills of
Arkham, MA.
Our first moves were carefully planned: information tables in the University
Union, arcane bake sales, ceremonies in the remote regions of campus, and the
like. After a year we had become a campus fixture.
\bf\begin{center}THIS POWER CAN BE YOURS!\end{center} \rm
The next year we reached out for other campuses. Yale, New York
University, SUNY-Binghamton, they were but a few. Now we have over 666 schools
under our rule. And that is only counting the United States!
\bf\begin{center}IMAGINE WHAT OUR SUPPORT CAN DO FOR YOU!\end{center}\rm
Remember the uprisings of the sixties, REMEMBER Kent State? They were small
experiments on our part, to demonstrate our power.
\bf\begin{center}AS CAN YOU, IF YOU SWEAR ETERNAL LOYALTY TO US!\end{center}\rm
By the end of the second year we had possession of the entire University!
Classes were cancelled so that all could take part in our ceremonies
and rituals. Virgins of both sexes begged to be sacrificed
on our behalf. Our
political control of Arkham was absolute.
\bf
\begin{center}SINCE THEN WE HAVE GROWN IN POWER A THOUSANDFOLD!\\
{YOU CANNOT AFFORD NOT TO BECOME ONE WITH US!}\end{center}\rm
Remember, we have been watching you for a very long time.
We will continue to do so for the rest of your life.
However long that shall be is up to you.
So, join the fastest growing conspiracy on the planet! Be ready for the
time of the re-awakening.
