History

Preface[]

A mysterious tropical island in the Timor Sea, two hundred nautical miles east from Kupang,[3] southeast of Java,[4] the Chthonic Island was well hidden,[1] and could not be found on any maps, its location only being recorded in the Darkhold and privy to high-ranking members of the Darkholders.[4] Though the Timor Sea was traveled by Europeans as far back as circa 1500 AD, but nobody reported anything being at the coordinates of the island,[5]

The island was populated by the Broodlings of Chthon, a reptilian race created by the dark elder god Chthon, which lured in passing sailors in order to sustain their population.[3]

19th century[]

One such group of sailors, a 19th-century whaling vessel came to isle in June 1821, and left a cemetery behind where the crewmen killed as sacrifices (after being raped) by the Broodlings were buried.[3]

A Temple of Chthon was located in the depths of the jungle at the center of the island, constructed using eldritch architecture;[6] however, this temple was destroyed when Carnage used it to open a rift to K'lay in order to free the elder god.[7]

When the Eliminator attacked the Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff) and Amaranth in Lotkill, Wanda displaced the fight at the Chthonic Island
