== Description ==
"Nothing on earth is its equal—
a creature without fear.
It looks down on all that are haughty;
it is king over all that are proud."
Job 41, 33-34
Behold before you, the king of the depths, lord of the seas and maker of monsters! It has existed since time immemorial, and shall exist long after the death of humankind! It is made to survive and outlast, and challengers others to do so. Constant evolution is it's nature and values those who change and adapt through struggle. It's vast eye sees all that move through it's waters, and all that sinks beneath the waves belongs to it. Its servants number many, as it is the Sire of Monsters and constantly experiments and forms new beings. Some are made to fulfill a certain need or purpose, others are made simply because the Architeuthian could. Many of these beings are inimical to the individual human, striving to FEAST THE FLESH and SLURP THE MARROW, but as a whole most do not wish for the end of humanity, as do the Steels. For if their were no humans, what would they eat? Their father, in fact, refuses to allow them to consume the flesh of one another.

==Worship = Theme Songs ===Previous songs were ones that fit with Adonibaal (the RP Canon version of The Architeuthian). New songs will eventually be picked for The Architeuthian.
=== Cult ===
'''The Antediluvian League''', home to the '''Dedicants''': Paper is never enough of a surface for these cultists, and traditional inks never enough. Skin works, with knowledge tattooed across every surface. For others, blood works as ink, and walls as canvas.
# '''Ascension: Evolution''': My skin itches furiously and comes away in patches, revealing rubbery flesh beneath. I dislike being away from sources of water for extended periods of time. This is the Sixth Mark.
# '''The Evolution of Man:''': I have passed through the Tricuspid Gate, in a perfect and imperishable form. I entered the Aquarium to thunderous applause, for His Servants were enthralled by my splendor of form. I will walk the world in the service of the Architeuthian, learning, evolving. Perhaps I will rebel. Perhaps, one day, I will rise even higher.
