(Please answer preferably in detail) I was wondering what exactly are his powers. I think he's supposed to be the strongest one in The cthulhu mythos right aside from Yog Sogoth and Azathoth. I am asking what exactly does is powers consist of?

Basically instantaneous information transfer (telepathy), shape shifting, and an ability like the "k'fisatz haderech" (being able to relocate instantaneously; hyper-luminal velocity and being at more than a single place at once.).
He's more or less the equivalent of Hermes/Mercury...definitely NOT the strongest one, more like a servant of the Great Old Ones. Azathoth is probably the most powerful.
Nyarlathotep or the Crawling Chaos is the messenger of the Outer Gods who delights in causing madness and destruction. Very often he appears as a human being or as the Dark God of the Witches.
