Nyarlathotep is a being described in the notes of the pirate captain Jamit Angari, who seemed to believe Sorhan is a guise of Nyarlathotep.
The archdevil Azaphiel has heard of Nyarlathotep but seems not to believe he/it exists.
Pronunciation
Most commonly, Nyarlathotep is pronounced nyar-LAH-thoh-tep, but I pronounce it NYAR-lat-HOH-tep, as in 0:10 of this video. I believe the th in the name is not a consonant digraph but rather a consonant cluster, because hotep is an actual ancient Egyptian word, meaning "at rest, at peace."
