Yog-SothothWP[Note 1], generally referred to as Sut-Typhon (スト・テュホン, Suto Tyuhon?), is one of the Outer Gods, whose power is manifested through the Foreigner Class Servant Abigail Williams.
Profile[]
Background[]
It's a great god that is both the Gate and the Key. There are six Gates. Up, Bottom, Left, Right, Front and Back represent all possible dimensions. And the god resides where light can never reach, outside of the universe, beyond the Ultimate Gate, being its lord.[1] But despite that he also borders all possible dimensions and is tied to all possible things.[2] It might be called "Sut-Typhon", but in the Whateley's Book of Eibon, it's recorded as The All-in-One, the One-in-All (全にして一、一にして全なる者, Zen ni shite Ichi, Ichi ni shite Zen'naru Mono?).[2] Yog-Sothoth described in several grimoires, that's includes "Book of Eibon" and "Necronomicon".[1] Raum also states that Yog-Sothoth far surpasses Solomon and no nonfictional mage can hope to stand against him.[3]
Appearance[]
In Abigail Williams' third ascension, his purple eye is seen through the keyhole of her forehead. His tentacles are also manifested in her ascension. However, its tentacles have a different appearance in her Summer form: if in the original version the tentacles appeared from a certain portal, which is located behind Abigail, then in the summer version its tentacles appear directly from her back. In addition to tentacles and eye, Sut-Typhon also appears as gates of various sizes, but despite that all Gates have the same appearance.
Outer Universe[]
There are many Parallel Worlds within Our Universe, but beyond Parallel Worlds and Our Universe there also the Outer Universe - the Yog-Sothoth itself[4] and the home of Outer Gods. However, Yog-Sothoth's existence has yet to be proven in Our Universe.[5] Gilles de Rais states that Outer Gods are not affected by the principles of magecraft and the laws of physics.[6] This is confirmed by the fact that, having blended with the Cthulhu, Katsushika Hokusai's drawing style evokes non-Euclidean geometry.[7] In addition, the Outer Universe is incompatible with humanity, so staying in it causes distortion in the body and mind of humans.[8]
Gates[]
Need to notice that Yog-Sothoth is the entity that contains all Gates and is the all Gates. Firstly, there are Gates that represents every dimension. This Gates reach across all of time and space.[3]
Yog-Sothoth is not only all possible dimensions and what lies beyond them, but also the Gates that delimit the worlds. So, for example, the World of Dreams, Dreamlands, lies beyond what is known in the Cthulhu MythosWP as the First Gate. They can be observed during NP Abigail Williams (Summer). The World of Dreams lies beyond the physical world and if a person dies in it, then he will also die in the physical world.[9] Dreamlands have its own inhabitants, like the Scimitar.[10] In addition, Dreamlands serves as the world that allows people from Our Universe to get into the Outer Universe. Prelati used it to get to the Sunken Spiral Castle and create his grimoire. This also works in the opposite direction, since Cthulhu tried to enter Our Universe through Ritsuka Fujimaru's dreams to possess servants of Chaldea.[11] Dreamlands was described as boundless world where are the Melty Blood: Type Lumina events takes place.[12]
Then, beyond the Universe and Outer Universe, beyond even the First Gate and Dreamlands, lies the Ultimate Gate - the gate of time and space beyond which the Yog-Sothoth itself resides. This gate located in the higher dimension that transcends even Rayshifting.[13] Arriving at the Ultimate Gate is a phenomenon that bound by no limits.[14] Abigail serves as one of guardians of Ultimate Gate who will one day become the Ultimate Gate. Lavinia believes that Ancient One standing at the mouth of the well is an Abby's destined form.[13] When one bearing the silver key arrives at the gate, Abigail offers them their final trial.[5]
Personality[]
Role[]
Fate/Grand Order[]
Salem: The Taboo Epiphany Garden[]
The Demon God, Raum, intended to summon Sut-Typhon through Abigail, in order to save humanity through "pain".[2]
When Lavinia Whateley was mortally wounded by Raum, Abigail, in despair of losing her friend, threw away her human heart, human words, and human hopes. She finishes the chant for Sut-Typhon and fully awakens. Abigail had yet to fully become one with the Outer God, and she still had her limits. Queen of Sheba and Circe tried to shut all of the gates from the inside, thus removing the weakening effect from Ritsuka Fujimaru's Servants. After Abigail is beaten, the god inside her disappears.[3]
Abilities[]
Sut-Typhon can control space and time. He can open the power of gates in this world. He can control the evil tree QliphothWP, which opens a “gate” that leads to an alien world that is incompatible with humanity and produces a severe distortion in the target’s mind and body.[15]
It is also able to smoothly transform the world surrounding the target, opening the gates and inviting the target into the boundless world of dreams. Those who witness the true form of the world hidden on the other side of everyday life with its overwhelming resolution and mass, lose their fighting spirit and will even struggle to maintain their ego.
In addition to what was described above, Abigail (Summer), having fully established a connection with Yog-Sothoth,[5] is able to allow an Outer God to open the gate for various attacks: for example, a giant monstrous hand, a monster "from the garden of impurity" or an energy ray may appear from the gate to eliminate opponents.
Development[]
Creation and Conception[]
Sut-Typhon, also called Sut-Thoth, is one of the names Aleister CrowleyWP used for his "holy guardian angel". Kenneth GrantWP, disciple to Crowley, later associated Sut-Typhon with Yog-SothothWP of Lovecraftian Mythos.

- ↑ The character is not officially named as such in official media. The name is inferred through details presented in the story, but there is no official statement on the character's name. The naming used in this article is for ease of convenience in linking between articles in which several characters lack official names or nicknames.
Within the TYPE-MOON universe, the Cthulhu Mythos is considered to be a fictional story by H. P. Lovecraft that happened to correspond to beings that exist outside the universe. There have been some references to the official names used in the Cthulhu Mythos at times, but TYPE-MOON avoids directly linking the names to the Outer Gods portrayed in the story.

This "key" supposedly existed in Salem, Massachusetts for a time. It was there for a few decades, but considering the key's existence is measured in centuries, that time span is just a blink of an eye. The key was methodically preserved by a thaumaturgist, who came from England. It was wrapped in parchment and then placed inside a box made out of fragrant wood that emitted a sweet-smelling aroma. The key granted special powers to the possessor. But it couldn't be in the hands of just anybody. There were specific conditions that had to be met. The conditions were that the individual had to be innocent, possess the heart of a child, and have knowledge of magecraft. This was because the key was connected to the dream world. This was due to the fact that, according to the "Book of Eibon," "Necronomicon," and other grimoires, the key was created by a thaumaturgist who came from the northern continent that had sunk during the Glacial Period. While it is indeed called a key since it closely resembled the excavated artifacts from the ruins of Rome, there was no lock that was paired with it. It was essentially a key based off of a concept, and it should have actually been called something similar to a staff that thaumaturgists wield. When the catastrophe that was the Witch Trials of Salem occurred, the key should have been lost and hidden away as just another myth or superstition. However, it found an individual who met the conditions to inherit it. The girl's name was Abigail Williams. The girl rightfully and correctly used the key, handed to her by the Demon God Pillar, during sunset, when the hills of the execution site turned crimson the moment the celestial bodies aligned. Iä! Iä! The red seal on the devil's tome inscribed by the women suspected to be witches... The same knots of the same number of nine seals were handled with the same motion fit for each seal...and the girl opened up the door that led to the "Boundary." Iä! Iä! Y-grah'n li'gai gai! Those who gaze back on us from within the abyss of falsity. O lord of the ultimate gate who reigns beyond the corridors of dreams. O, All-in-One and One-in-All being. We must caution those who come in contact with the young girl. The girl's existence shall put the world into uncertainty. But... Oh... Ohhh...
...The excerpt ends there.銀鍵のロザリオ
その“鍵”は一時、マサチューセッツ州セイレムに存在していたと云う。時間にして数十年間だが、鍵自身の過ごした悠久の世紀と比べれば、瞬きほどの間でしかない。鍵は英国に祖を持つ一人の“魔道士”によって几帳面に保管されていた。大きな羊皮紙に包まれ、馥郁たる香りを放つ香木製の箱におさめられていた。鍵は持つ者に特別な力を贈り与えた。誰でもよいというわけではない。使用には確たる条件があった。魔術の素養を備えた、無垢なる者、おさなごころを失わぬ者であることがその条件だった。なぜならば鍵は夢の世界へと繋がっていたからだ。そもそも“鍵”は恐るべき古代、極寒の氷河期に沈んだ北方の大陸の魔道士によって造られたものであると“象牙の書”“死者の掟の書”といった幾冊かの魔道書の記述を辿り知ることが出来る。ローマ遺跡の発掘品を彷彿とさせるその外見から確かに鍵と呼ばれるに至ったが、対となる錠が現実に存在するわけではない。実際には概念としての鍵であり、本来であれば魔道士の振るう“杖”と称すべきなのだろう。やがて魔女裁判の致命的な災禍がセイレムを襲った際に、鍵はまた偽りと迷信のベールに包まれ失われる筈であったが、受け継ぐべき者が現れた。その少女の名はアビゲイル・ウィリアムズ―――魔神柱に手渡された鍵を、少女は日没の時刻、絞首刑の丘が薔薇色に染まる星辰の刻に正しく用いた。いあ！ いあ！ 魔女と疑われた女たちが悪魔の書物に記した赤き印、その九つの印と同じ数のひねりを、それぞれの印にふさわしき動作で繰り、少女は“境界”へとつながる扉を開放したのだ。いあ、いあ、いぐああ、いいがい、がい！ 虚構の深淵よりこちらを臨む者よ。夢の回廊の彼方におわす、窮極の門たる神よ。“全にして一、一にして全なる者”よ。少女に触れる者に警告をせねばならない。少女の存在は世界を不確かなものとするだろう、しかし、おお、おお、

"In the name of the god of great gate and key, give me power. Give me power. Give me power."
Originally a half-moon shaped sword named after a sage from the land of dreams, its construction method can be traced back to the literary fragments of a grimoire known as the "Necronomicon." It's a tool used for various rituals, and it normally requires extreme care when handled. Yet it's been arranged in a way that it could be conveniently carried for summer excursions...it has turned into an inflatable scimitar.
To use it, the wielder needs to personally fill it with their own breath to inflate it. During this process, nobody else may give them a hand.
