The Necronomicon In Your Nation

[The Multiversal Species Alliance]

What's the status of the Al Azif (Necronomicon) in your nation?
The Al Azif is widely circulated and is very popular.

[The Nightmare Dimension]

It's very popular among Cultists and students, not much everyone else.

[Roumelia]

It doesn't exist.

[Purpelia]

OOC: What is that thing? Seriously what is it? Can we get some information?

[Allonia]

OOC: What is that thing? Seriously what is it? Can we get some information?

Here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Azif
It's legal, although not very popular.

[Auzkhia]

Practically unheard of.

[Arghos]

A downloadable e-book.

[Paxderius]

[The Viking Fjord]

Doesn't exist, though Lovecraft is fairly popular.

[The Elohic Islands]

Actively publishing it is just asking for trouble. If someone happens to find it and tries to summon some horrible abomination, our Paranormal Threat Elimination Task Force (PTETF) will try and stop it before something bad happens and arrest the person responsible for almost putting The Elohic Islands in great danger.

[Yaybor]

IC: Never heard of it.

OOC: Never heard of it.

[Rastynhaven]

A downloadable e-book.

[Cruciland]

The necronomicon is regarded as another mysterious and entertaining fictional work made by the ingenious H.P. Lovecraft, of who many macabre enthusiasts look up to.

[Kingdom of Phoenixia]

banned since a cult inspired by this theme tried to start a rebellion against the royal house.
After 200 years there is still no motion to lift this ban, partially because no one cares about it.

[Holy Slavic Empire]

Unheard of in HSE.

[Meridiani Planum]

It is our view that there is currently no real Necronomicon. The book is just a literary invention of H.P. Lovecraft that one finds in his fiction.

Unfortunately, H.P. Lovecraft was right about the existence of Cthulhu Mythos creatures, probably due to a subconscious influence from Cthulhu Itself. This suggests that the real Necronomicon could be created in the future.

[Slembana]

It's virtually unheard of, both ICly and OOCly.

[Northfort]

It popular among cultist and fiction fans.

[Keduk]

It doesn't exist.

[United Timelines Outpost Number 99999999]

We have it available in digital format, since it removes most of the anomalous nature of the text. Physical versions are confiscated and the holder is fined. We keep all known texts of similar renown in multiple secret locations.
Secure.
Contain.
Protect.

[Xekliv]

When it was discovered it was immediately destroyed due to it's immense power and extremely dangerous capabilities, like, you know, summoning the Old Ones.

[Greater Mackonia]

Many Macks seriously believe that such a book does exist and it is actually a secret code as of how to overthrow humanity.

[Estainia]

"I laugh at it heartily." - Cornelius Maximilian, noted actual practicing ridiculously powerful Necromancer

That being said it's available, and most magus laugh at it.

[Phocidaea]

HP Lovecraft was never a popular author here. No, we don't have books that don't exist in Phocidaea.

If we did find a Necronomicon, which we won't because they don't exist, we would scan it into a computer at the archives, then sell the book itself to one of those silly Cthulhu cultists abroad.

[The Sangheili Empire]

Never heard of this thing.
