Y'gala, The High Priestess of Death
"For those who read of evil and search for its form in their minds call forth evil, and so may Y'golonac return to walk among men."
~ A passage from Cold Print on Y'golonac
The Team:
John Steele is trained in martial arts, is a master swordsman, and has an extreme resistance to evil Chthonic magic.
Sierra Masters is the world's most powerful psychic dedicated to avenging the murder of her brother.
Frederick Masters is a former Ranger Officer with elite military training and a psychic ability to sense danger.
Professor Henry Silberhutte III is the last surviving member of the Alnass Najma, the people from the stars, and a Wizard. The Old Gods exterminated his wife, family, and entire race.
~ Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn ~
Eternal Prisoners are Demons who were once humans, who made a deal with the Elder Gods, are damned for eternity, and are tools for the Agents of Chaos.

From the personal journal of Frederick Masters:
Somehow, some way, we are 2-0 against the Arkham cult and their forever-damned Eternal Prisoners. I am a professional soldier. I am a former Army Ranger. Deep in my soul, I know we can't keep beating these impossible odds this way.
John Steele defeated the Eternal Prisoner (E.P.) Gorgon statue and sent it back to its other-dimensional prison. Just barely: it almost killed him. It took him months to recover from the ordeal.
We were fortunate to slay so many of the giant Night-Gaunts and send their E.P. nightmare of a Queen Mother and the remaining Gaunts back home to roost. If we want to win this war, and some of us survive it, we have to get serious.
I am already serious, deadly serious. I am the one who found our brother Adam's body. I am the one who saw what was left of the torture and human sacrifice committed upon my brother by these demons and their human helpers. I spared my sister Sierra from that sight.
During my scouting trip at the rave, after discovering their plans, I identified and eliminated twenty-two of the bastards. I only wish I could have taken out more of them. Their remains will never be found.
During our raid on Arkham, C.T.U & C.H.A.O.S. Enterprises warehouse, I found ten of their human allies and IT experts running their massive computer and communications systems. I eliminated them. Any human willing to work for these monsters deserves to die.
I am also the one who attached several bombs to the main gas line in the warehouse. I wanted to send a more powerful message than destroying their computer storage. I wanted them to know fear.
Since we were children, I have been able to hide some things from my sister's psychic abilities.
No one knows about these steps I have taken. Perhaps the Professor suspects something? That dude doesn't seem to miss anything. But- what the hell? He hates them more than I do. They started this war when they murdered Adam. I intend to end it only when they are all dead.
We will return to the AMAH, Arkham Museum of Ancient History, tonight. Sierra says another powerful entity guards a portal located there. I prefer to level the entire Museum full of Demon Worshipers with explosives and send them all to hell.

From the personal journal of John Steele:
Since our mission last month, I have been spending every free moment with my beloved. I have never been happier.
Things will have to change after tonight. I cannot allow Frederick to keep waging this one-person war alone.
I found the thumb drive where he downloaded info from the cult's computer records before destroying them- pretty gruesome stuff. The cult is making its money from underage sex trafficking, child porn, and artificial heroin labs. These are just a few fun ways they can add to the chaos of our society.
Every other night or so, Frederick disappears. Then I see something on the news or the papers bearing Frederick's fingerprints the next day. We have crippled their communications; now Freddy-boy is going after their income sources.
Well, that is going to have to change. With both of us hitting multiple targets, things will heat up quickly. I am sure Sierra will understand.
Stopping these Chthonic Worshipers and all the harm they do must be our number one priority.
