Description Part of a series of Lovecraftian mythos monsters re-imagined.

Description from The H.P. Lovecraft Wiki:

"A shoggoth is a sentient blob of self-shaping gelatinous flesh, something like a giant amoeba. A shoggoth is some fifteen feet in diameter if it shaped itself into a sphere, but larger and smaller versions exist. A shoggoth is capable of shaping itself into whatever organs or shapes it finds needful at the moment; however, in its usual state it tends to sport a roiling profusion of eyes, mouths, and pseudopodia.

A curious behavior of the shoggoth is their repetitive cry of "Tekeli-li! Tekeli-li!"  This is believed to be a phrase uttered by the Elder Things during the Shoggoth's aeons of enslavement, possibly intended to spur the Shoggoth on with their given tasks."

Even when ugly, these are on our side.
