Jygogatron: Thought to be closely related to The Brotherhood of Skullduggery, the name Jygogatron has crept into local folk lore in many parts of Western Scotland, mainly through the work of graffiti artists, as the image shows. The name may or may not refer to one of the Orders Of Skullduggery. In the past it has become confused with 'Metratron', an entity much referred to in the works of H.P. Lovecraft (see 'The Case of Charles Dexter Ward'). However, to this day the exact nature of the word or name is mainly unknown, and any web search or delving in tomes of antiquarian lore return few and misleading results.

The first known reference to Jygogatron is thought to have emanated from the Southern American States, where societies such as the Skull & Bones have been heard to chant the word monotonously on certain nights of the year (Walpurgis, All Hallows and of course the Eve of The Skull). Exactly how the word crossed the Atlantic to Scotland from the Americas (or vice versa) remains a question of debate, although some scholars with a knowledge of the eldritch maintain that in certain circles it is forbidden to speak it aloud without the proper permission.

As it stands, very little is known of this strange and mysterious word; therfore any addenda to this article would be much appreciated.
