Has anyone ever attempted to use these Hellboy entities in their magick? I haven't, I was just wondering if anyone had, due the eclectic nature of Chaos Magick and the obvious relation to the Cthulhu Mythos...
Any thoughts/experiences/opinions?

I havent, but hey, whatever works for the individual. They are as excellent characters to work with as any other would be. (as i see it)

Hmmmmm.....
Haven't seen Hellboy yet... I'll have to watch it...
But yes you could... People told me I couldn't get results with The Mythos... They were obviously WRONG...
And like Mad. wrote it depends on what works for the individual...
You got any ideas, Ny?

Oh, I'd definitely recommend that film. Lots of charming Lovecraftian aspects to it.
To be honest, i haven't really considered the whole idea too seriously but I am letting it slowly fizz and ferment in the back of my mind. I see no reason why it wouldn't work.. If I had a reason to call on the "Seven Gods of Chaos" I'd be giving it a go, for sure. But at the moment, there isn't much need, i'm afraid. But shall an oppurtune need arise, I shant hesitate to utilize them and post any findings/results here.

I am rather fond of these entities. At first, what threw me off from them was the word Ogdru, which is a designation of eight. Considering they are the seven gods of chaos, i jumped to the assumption that to some degree they formed a whole entity, a One From Many. With eight total, i made the choice to use them as a manifestation of the chaos star its self. Usually writing them off as the first child/children of Shubby and Az. From my individual experience, these entities are less for destruction and overt madness, and are more for the production of pure unadulterated random and chaos, thus living up to their name.
Each of these entities is a distinct individual, including the whole entity. It may be appropriate to call upon one as an individual (from the seven parts, or the one as a single entity), or it may be best to call upon the entire entity.
Perhaps i shall post up how i called for their attention first, and how i gained and used their favor, that is if there exists interest here for that. I am also curious to see how others have used these entities.
