Welcome to roll to Ȩld͠r̨͝i̷͜t̨͞ć͞h͠!'
Your goal is to become an Old One. Not just any ol' Old One though, no. You want to be a GREAT Old One. You want your name to be so powerful, to know it is to be insane. But there's one problem: You're just a human. Luckily, there's a lot of ways you can get there, or so you think.
I want to mix it up a little, so let's use 1d12. That way there's a bigger range for things to go wrong (or right), but not so much I have to write a book to cover every outcome or something. Also, there's a system here; you can't "Roll to win the game." You have to go up the levels, which are like this:
Human > Eldritch > Lesser Old One > Old One > Great Old One
The game goes until people get board, a certain amount of people become Great Old Ones simultaneously (No I'm not telling you) or the world ends.
It's set on Earth. Assume up to modern technology, but some places are still medieval.
Also, even Great Old Ones can die. It's just a pain in the ass, and probably won't happen. Oh, and there's no player cap.

Religion/Cult/Whatever else could go here:
Name: Akashir Orakan (not his legal name, but it's all he goes by)
Gender: Male
Appearance: Lank and dangerously thin, something about this man makes him seem as ruthless as he is emaciated.
Religion/Cult/Whatever else could go here: Akashianism
Name: Raoli Iloar
Gender: Male
Appearance: Tall and deathly pale with a mighty golden beard that stretches to his waist and a flowing mane that is just as golden as the beard. Entwined in his hair are colourful strips of paper that flutter in the wind. Tied to the strips are bells, big and small, in every shape and size. They jingle. Together the jingling and fluttering form a haunting melody as of a thousand wails.
Religion/Cult/Whatever else could go here: Necrodruid Cult
Eh, why not. Let's retread some favoured ground.
Name: Xan
Gender: Irrelevant
Appearance: Tall, gawkishly slender, bony. The skin is thin, showing veins in full color, and bruises easily. Hands are abnormally large in comparison to normal humans, but thin, like they've been extended in a taffy puller. The fingers are similarly long and thin, and twitch and fidget frequently in the manner that a spider's legs do. The eyes are large and dark, with heavy bags evident underneath. Thin lips and a wide mouth complete the face, along with the teeth, which are glossy and square. Altogether a relatively disquieting appearance.
Name : Bob
Gender : male
Appearance : thin man with green eyes
Name: Narcissus
Gender: No one knows
Appearance: An incredibly handsome boy/girl. They are infatuated in their own appearance, and have decided to become a god so they can share their stunning beauty with more people.
Religion/Cult/Whatever else could go here: Narcissism
Name: Jim Johnson
Gender: Male
Appearance: Some what tall with a bushy unkempt beard and dirty old clothing that smells of filth and strong alcohol, like your average hobo.
Cthulhu - He's Cthulhu. That's it. You don't want him waking up. Cult is everywhere. Actually a Great Old One, and can end the world.
If you actually read all that and want to make a character sheet, go ahead.
Please put actions
In Bold. That way I don't have to read through your whole post to find your action.
