Department of Esoteric Personnel Assessment

The Examination Beyond the Threshold

Sixteen questions will determine which of eight powers might find you most suitable: Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, Cthulhu, the King in Yellow, Dagon, Hastur, Azathoth, or Shub-Niggurath. A sufficiently cautious candidate may yet achieve the rare distinction of being ignored by all of them.

Yog-Sothoth
Nyarlathotep
Cthulhu
The King in Yellow
Dagon
Hastur
Azathoth
Shub-Niggurath
This examination is fictional satire inspired by cosmic horror. It does not assess mental health, religious belief, personality, ancestry, aquatic aptitude, susceptibility to forbidden names, metaphysical entropy, fertility cults, woodland mutation, or actual suitability for supernatural transformation.
