Rose “ly’lnd” Cythla

Gender: F
Age: Many strange aeons (passport claims 27)
Race: Cthulhi: One of Cthulhu's star spawn
Faction: The Great Old Ones, GDF(scientific observer)
Personality:
Rather rare among her kind she shows rather a lot of interest in humans in capacities other than potential cultists or insects to be ignored. She is particularly enamored in works of sci-fi and fantasy, but has gained a general love for all things human and is a practical sponge for knowledge.

As ly’lnd she is a proud and rather full of herself, looking down on all these young things that dare to challenge the spawn of an Old One despite her relative lack of experience in fighting. She is the somewhat benevolent queen/creator of the deep ones and tries to maintain an air of regality and poise in-front of them.

As Rose she is an excitable, intelligent and curious scientist who is rather optimistic and admiring of humanity's accomplishments and determination. It could be possible to say that this is the real her, not putting on airs as a ruler of a people or upholding the honor of the Great Old Ones, she gets to fangirl over stuff much more freely and simply claim it is all part of her act.

In both capacities however she is intensely protective of those that are ‘hers’ which is her Deep ones first and then every human on the planet second. Also does not like to be shown up by others, either intellectually or physically, it looks bad in front of her deep ones and the now watching Great Old Ones, for something as great as her should not be beaten by some jumped up lizard or monkey.

History:
Of the Great Old Ones:
To the Great Old Ones the human race had been as much concern as bees where to an elephant. They strode through their lives on the great plains of the universe, dealing mostly with one another and the occasional foolish pride of lions. They did not pay attention as the bees built machines, guns and bombs to fight another, nor paid any heed when they unknowingly crushed them underfoot or dislodged a hive while grazing on a tree. When the bees killed a honey badger though, some of the old ones blinked, for such things should not happen. They particularly paid attention when all hell broke lose with every two bit monstrosity came out of the woodwork, and the bees fought those too.

So it was that humanity, and the creatures that masqueraded as them, came to the attention of the eldritch horrors from the beyond. They where not enough to be a threat, but some thought the humans should at least be observed and possibly seared to match their unknowable designs.

The question of what should be done about all this was rather quickly solved when it was found out that some of the lowly spawn of the slumbering Cthulhu had taken interest long ago and had been engaged in what could have only been called a pet project involving the young race while waiting for her father's return. It was in this manner that ly’lnd and her deep one servants became in charge of human resources for the now interested Great Old Ones.

Of Rose herself:
Originally one of Cthulhu's Starspawn she is one of the only of his line to have not sunk with the lost city of R'lyeh and as a result has spend most of her existence wandering the earth’s oceans and trying to wake up Cthulhu. Unfortunately every time she does this either the cultists she has organised are thwarted by some madmen or Cthulhu half wakes, says the stars aren't right, and then goes back to bed. Suffice to say she has had enough of all that and is just waiting for the old bugger to do it himself.

During her long and lonely isolation she has created the Deep ones as servants and researchers to entertain her with stories of the humans and to generally keep an eye on anything going on up there that might be a threat.

It was to her great delight then then that her servants managed to reverse engineer the technology that allowed the android size changing, letting her shrink and take human form to explore the world at her own leisure. The Great Old Ones ordering her to handle the ongoing situation was a second boon and so she took it upon herself to now physically protect her interests in the human race and found herself a position in the GDF through her infiltrators in order to stay close to the action. Humanity is both her passion and ticket to greater influence among the Great Old Ones, perhaps she one day will be counted among their number with the ascended humans at her beck and call.

Powers/Abilities:
Draconic wings: allow for a slow, lumbering flight
Combat tentacles: gripping, crushing tendrils ensnare and constrict targets. In human form her long hair can act in a similar fashion.
Alien intellect: As a truly ancient being her capacity to hold knowledge is vast.
Eldritch Transformation: swap between a human and a large Cthulhuian body (probably comes up to about Godzilla's shoulder)
Cthulhuian physiology: hulking and unnaturally durable, her true form is a lesser version of the Great Old One Cthulhu himself.
Death Rays: Can fire purple blasts of eldritch energy from her mouth and eyes. In her human form a purple gem on her chest and 3 on her hat/visor can do the same.
Deep ones: human sized loyal servants act as infiltrators to human society or as super strength infused warriors who can help her fight

Other:
Deep ones.

evolution

Normal deep ones are strange aquatic beings that serve Rose and inhabit the ruins of R'lyeh, these mainly served as Rose’s companions and guards while she was confined to the sea, now they act as an early warning system and support personnel for Kiju attacks.

Of more interest to this rp is the large communities of half breeds that inhabit many coastal cities across the world where they can pass as human until about the age of 60, when they undergo a metamorphosis and must go join their brethren in the sea. These half breeds consist of one of the oldest, richest and secretive of institutions on the planet, which is impressive when you consider their main purpose is to provide entertainment for their creator. Up until recently the cults main purpose has been to gather wealth, members and fund science and the arts, now they are the cornerstone of the Old Ones, or rather roses, plan to ensure that humanity's future is one that serves them rather than is opposed to them.

With coastal cities being a prime target for the monsters now roaming the world Rose and her deep-one infiltrators were already rather involved with the human effort to thwart the colossi wreaking havoc on their shared homes. In these cities the juvenile deep ones can be found mainly in positions where they can help further the cause, from local police and politicians to scientists and technicians working with the GDF. Rose herself acts along with an scientific observation team who are sent to observe and study anything Kaiju related. This has giving her a lot of influence and freedom of movement in the GDF while also being able to intervene whenever she feels necessary, her deep one packed science team and guards able to cover for her absences.
