	Greater Servitor Races - A Scientific Approach, Volume 1 - Ghouls
		Mordiggian does figure prominently in the story "The Charnel God" by Clark Ashton Smith.
		Mordiggian dwells within a temple in the city of Zul-Bha-Sair, and is served by a cult of ghoul priests.
		The case of Pickman, the sorry state of Agent Nancy, the disturbing trend of the neophyte ghoul faction, the ghouls' reckless behaviour during the French Revolution, the list goes on and on.

	Cosmology/Theen
		Sometime in the past (Dreamlands time being notoriously difficult to estimate, but sometime since the quest of Randolph Carter) an attack was launched on Ooth-Nargai by Zejul-far-Hith, a hardy war-leader from the wastes north of Lhosk.
		Unfortunately, the god Mordiggian intervened, and the victims were not cured, but merely preserved.
		Nonetheless, the people of Theen venerate Mordiggian (in fact, it is the last bastion of that god's worship, outside of vast sections of The Underworld), and the vengeful goddess Hagarg Ryonis.

		Cult: Mordiggian is worshipped exclusively by ghouls, although other races may offer up their dead to the Charnel God as appeasement and not as actual worship.
		Notes: Although Mordiggian is known mostly within the Dreamlands, it is assumed that the Great Old One may also enter the world of waking men through the same grave-tunnels and tombs that its ghoul followers use.
		This blindness lasts only as long as the dreamer/investigator is within the presence of Mordiggian, and sight returns instantly upon the god's departure.

		Ghouls devour the bodies of the dead in the manner prescribed by their deity, Mordiggian, and in so doing their lives are extended.
		Their worship of Mordiggian is done by doing what they’d do anyway -- eating bloated, dead bodies – so there’s no need for them to be fanatical or overly-energized at all.
		On the other hand, it is quite possible that the Ghouls were the ones who introduced Mordiggian to Humans, as evidence of Mordiggian’s worship amongst the Ghouls predates that of mortals.

	Shoggoth.net: Ghoul Picnic
		Down the hill from the gate of Mordiggian came a tumult as legions of men in strange mail descended quickly from the caves to the valley below.
		The object from the sky had landed in the plain, and was clearly the object of concern for the legion.
		"It is not seemly that they should issue from the caves of the Folk, and disregard the warning of Father Mordiggian that reserves those caverns for the Folk." Ghost had patiently tried to explain the principles of Science to the Night People, and had not met with much success.

	The Elder Gods
		The Great Ghoul, Mordiggian, is another ancient god, said to be a brother of Set and the uncle of the Arcturan Titan of the Underworld, Cthonus.
		He is a horrible deity, called the Charnel God, who has no worshippers, at least among the ranks of Men, though some do offer him their dead as a form of placation of his hunger.
		Mordiggian is never represented, except as a shadow within other scenes, as one of the royal murals in the Marcosian capitol of Assenero, called "The Slaying of Khoora Bronzeblade", in which the hero Khoora's death scene is suplemented by a curious darkness between the fallen Khoora and his adversary, representing the presence of Mordiggian.

		This work is the greatest source of information on ghouls and their necromantic worship of the Great Ghoul, Mordiggian.
		Call Mordiggian: This spell functions as any other Call Deity spell, however, it may only be cast in the dark, near ghoul tunnels, or in a graveyard at least 200 years old.
		Not all Cthulhu Mythos fans or Lovecraft purists will agree with the classification of these creatures as part of the Cthulhu pantheon, and Keepers are urged to use or ignore these entities as fits his or her campaigns.

	The Charnel God by Clark Ashton Smith
		"Mordiggian is the god of Zul-Bha-Sair," said the innkeeper with unctuous solemnity.
		And all who die within the walls of the city are sacred to Mordiggian.

	Kurotokage: Ghouls
		The first possibility that comes to mind is that they did have some contact with Dreamlands Ghouls in something like a missionary expedition from the Dreamlands.
		Since they were living in an area where cremation was the norm, strict Mordiggianism didn't catch on.
		ASIDE: actually, in spiritual and magickal matters they would be more like the Anzique than the Mordiggian worshippers.

		Now he resembles nothing so much as a great worklike mass of solid darkness.
		All ghouls instinctively honor Mordiggian, the apotheosis for the necrophagic impulse.

		The other option is to pursue the whole underground scene present in Kult and Cthulhu.
		Ghouls and Mordiggian are already prominent players in Delta Green material, so it'd be simple to bring that in.
		Remember, in Delta Green, humanity isn't so insignificant as the focus is turned away from Cthulhoid monsters in dark houses to vast conspiracy and shadowplays - a big nod in the direction of Kult, if you ask me.
