Name: Shuma-Gorath
Alias: He Who Sleeps But Shall Awake, Cthuma-Gurath, 'Squidward'
Age: Older than you
Ranking: Neutral
Personality: Shuma-Gorath is a being far beyond the scope of the human mind. He is a daemon, a being of world consuming world, a creature who can rip through dimensional walls on a whim, one who's very appearance can drive some men mad...and naturally, this doesn't make him too much of a people person. And frankly, with his god-like abilities gone, he's beginning to release that he knows almost nothing about living beings at all. As such, his outlook on mortals has increased from thinking of them as 'pests and morsels' to that of a more sociological curiosity. Of course, his interactions with people make it clear he views himself, perhaps rightly, far above mere mortals. Afterall, as intelligent as the ruler of the Chaos Dimension is, his opinions are not hard to read, as they basically boil down to "If it's not as big as I am, it's a cockaroach".
Powers/Abilities: What a fool you are. I'm a GOD!: As master of magic, monsters, and most malevolent machinations of mystical mystery, it should be no surprise that even in his deluded form, Shuma-Gorath is still extremely in tuned with his otherworldly nature. With a pleathera of energy projectiles to shoot, the ability to levitate/fly, and his (now extremely mild) reality warping techniques, Shuma is still more than a worthy foe for most opponents.
How could you kill a GOD?: Now being forced to make due with a scaled down physical form, Shuma-Gorath has taken to shape-shifting and morphing his body, a talent he never had use for when he was the size of a solar system. Able to stretch, liquify, shrink, and expand (to an extent), the squid-like quasi-deity packs a mean physical punch to back up his psychic bite! Did I mention he can curl up into a slimey ball and heal himself whenever his limbs get cut off? Because he can (of course, on the battlefield, he'd get stabbed, punched, shot and kicked to death if he pulled that shit there.)
What a grand and intoxicating innocence! How could you be so naive?: While not exactly verbose, Shuma-Gorath is characterized by his unearthly intelligence, gained from his long-life and experiences as an eldrich abomination. While he won't be able to hack a computer or prepare a vial of the T-Virus using only a flu-vaccine and a couple of lollipops, Shuma's world-spanning knowledge, situational creativity, and all about cognitive abilities make him a very good person to cheat on during a Chemistry exam.
Equipment: HE'S NAKED, OMIGAWDSTREAKERSHUMA
Psychological Flaws: FOOLISH MORTALS!: As a semi-omniscient octopus, Shuma has quite a complex about the inferiority of mankind and...well...any other kind. Being compared to them in anyway is a sure-fire way to offend him, and as such, now that he's been brought down to the level of one...he's...more than a bit angry. Though, at the same time, he views it as a learning experience...an infuriating one.
What is a 'Snooki'?: Shuma is nearly completely devoid of any pop-culture knowledge. Hell, he doesn't even know the name of the current president. As such, he is often clueless when such instances arise.
Physical Flaws: I am not 'Squishy': Shuma, while an adaptable and scary magical monster, is not going to be winning any wrestling matches. If locked in close-range combat with someone, Shuma is going to lose unless he manages to wiggle away. He also, while not weak, is not particularly strong either, being about as powerful as a soldier physically.
Brief History: Although his true origins are unknown, before the arrival of the First Host of the Celestials, Shuma-Gorath ruled the Earth and commanded human sacrifice, until the time-traveling sorcerer Sise-Neg banished him. He managed to return and set himself up as a god during the Hyborian Age, again commanding bloody sacrifice, but slaughtered those who sought his favor. Eventually, the power of Crom imprisoned him within a mountain. Even from that prison, he could interact with Conan the Barbarian, Kulan Gath, and many others, before Crom banished him back to his home dimension.
When Shuma-Gorath tried to return to Earth through the mind of the 'Ancient One', he forced Doctor Strange, the sorcerer supreme of Earth, to kill his master to prevent the powerful creature from arriving on Earth. Years later, Strange was forced to destroy the talismans keeping the chaos demons at bay, to keep them from falling into the hands of an evil sorcerer. Strange was then forced to travel to Shuma-Gorath's dimension and fight it there to prevent the demons from invading Earth. To do so, Strange had to absorb the chaos magic into himself, gaining enough power to destroy Shuma-Gorath. However, he started to transform into a new Shuma-Gorath himself as a result, so he committed suicide to prevent that from happening. Fortunately, an ally of Strange was able to purify him on his way back to the living. Shuma-Gorath resurrected himself not long after from the remnants of the chaos magic...but all was not well with Shuma. After his reconstruction, he came into contact with a being known as 'The Dread Dormammu', lord of the Dark Dimension. Decided to feast upon the un-explored dimension as to regain his steadily increasing power, Shuma found that Dormammu was near Shuma's own normal power level, and was promptly defeated in his weakened state. Upon discovery of his identity, Dormammu, in a fit of ironic judgement, cursed Shuma-Gorath to another dimension, draining him of his power and forcing him to co-exist with 'the pathetic worms that inhabit Earth' for the rest of eternity.
Or, at least until Shuma finds his way out.
