Nothing at all is known of Starless' past. What is known is that he is an Outer God, often going to meeting with others such as Nyarlathotep and Used Napkin. Starless was said to be a cold and decisive fuhrer, rarely showing his human form, and always keeping his statements quick and mysterious. As fuhrer, he was capable; he ended Germany's then war with France in a total of five minutes, forty-nine seconds, and 23.9 milliseconds.
