Elderian

     Also known as Elder Things, Old Ones, and Elder Ones. Adult Elderians are very consistently 2 meter tall and 1 meter diameter and a 2 meter wingspan of leather comblike wings. Radially symmetrical body shape like a roughly ovalish pentagram shaped barrel with starfish like appendages at each end, a pair of retractable leather wings and five stalklike appendages. Five eyes, five feeding tubes, and five prismatic cilia for nightvision. A necropsy of a specimen revealed a five lobed brain. Amphibious ominivores but preferably carnivores, reproduced by spores. Immune to aging and most tellestrial disease and pathogens, effectively immortal except from accident or murder. Damage resistant, capable of resisting the oppressive pressure of the deep oceans and the cold, vacuum and radiation of space, about to put themselves into a state of hibernations for unlimited periods. Their blood was a thick dark greenish ichor whose stench could be detected from long distances which enraged dogs provoking them to attack.

     Elderians are the earliest colonizers of Tellestia, over a billion years ago. Other than directed energy weapons and space flight, not a lot is known about Elderian technology. Elderian historical records show they were adept genetic engineers. Elderian gengineers either invented the multifunctional shoggoths, as food source and labour, or adapted it from the unbegotton demiurge Ubbo-Sathla. Elderians had expansive vineyards, and a variety of domesticated animals and pets and service animals which included a giant blind albino sentry attack penguin. Elderian domestication depended strongly on mind control.

     Once an expansive culture with global trade and commerce, mining, agriculture, and manufacturing. The gradual planetary cooling, a series wars with the Yithians, Xotherians, Yugguthians, and Yakshtondians, and a slave rebellion by their polymorphic shoggoths as they evolved sentience, all contributed to Elderian technological decline and societal attrition.

Yakshtondians

     More commonly known as Flying Polyps, originating from Yakshtond. Able to manipulate air currents for offensive and defensive purposes, and most notably to fly, although they do touch down to the surface leaving a five toed radial footprint. Arriving as the second wave of colonization, 750 million years ago, controlling four planets in the solar syste, built massive basalt windowless towers, which ironically later served as their own prisons. When they tried to expand into the oceans, it incited a bitter war with the Elderians which ended in a détente or truce of some sort, permanently driving them from the oceans. 400 million years ago, they got into another territorial conflict with the Yithian refugees, who succeeded in driving them underground and imprisoning many of them in their own basalt towers.

     The actual form of Yaskshtondians is very amorphous, usually do not form usual body shapes with limbs or other appendages or heads, more usually a multitude of eyes and howling orifices resembling mouths.

Yithian

     Also referred to as the Great Race of Yith. Fleeing their home system of Yith, the Yithian refugees inserted their consciousnesses into the bodies of 3 meter tall cone shaped crinoids creatures who moved by a single muscular foot and had four extensible armlike tentacles. Two of the arms ended in grasping pincers, another with 4 clustered trumpet type organs used for eating and drinking, and the fourth which resembled a head with eyes and hearing stalks and a multitude of grasping tendrils which they used for feeding and writing. Yithian blood is thick and green.

     YIthian language is composed of clicking and scraping sounds from their pincer claws combined with sounds emitted from their trumpet cluster eating organ. Reproduction was rare as they were extremely long lived and transferred their consciousnesses via some technological means composed of metal poles and glass tubes, to new bodies when the need arose. When they did reproduce, they used some sort of seeds which they planted in the water.

     A major occupation of Yithians was to switch minds with others so they could amass knowledge about their culture, science, and technology as well as information of strategic importance. Yithians also possessed powerful weapons including energy (electrical) projectors which gave them a powerful advantage during the primordial territorial wars. Many Yithian cities were originally the basalt towers they took from the Yakshtondians.

     Yithians appeared to be able to project their consciousnesses into minds in the past and future, and back again. Supposedly, they all transferred their minds into the bodies of some beetle-like creatures in the future.

     Yithian society had countries, civil service, militaries, courts, etc, organized in a post-scarcity socialist structure. Crime and war was rare.

Xothians

     Also known as Xotherians, Cthulhi and as Star Spawn of Cthulhu. Originally from the green Xoth star system, they are relative latecomers among the great Sothothic colonizers of Tellestia, 350 Million years ago. Upon their arrival, the Xotherians set up settlements across the planet and promptly went to war with the Elderians, Yithians, and Yakshtondians who already had hundreds of millions of years head start. Eventually some sort of truce or détente was reached. Shortly thereafter, the Dagonians went into the service of the Xotherians and the worship of Great Chulhu, presumably as builders and maybe as architects.

     Between 9 and 13 meters tall, it is easy to understand why the average person might mistake a rank and file Xotherian as Cthulhu himself, but Great Cthulhu is multiples taller. Roughly humanoid body profile, abeit remarkably tall, rubbery skin, and has squidlike tentacle growing out of its face. Unlike Great Cthulhu, not all rank and file Xotherians do possess appendages resembling leathery wings on their back.

     Academic debates continue whether Xotherians are aquatic or if it is merely a coincidence that all of their settlement are presently underwater. Although immune to aging, any tellestial disease, infection, toxin, or poison, and able to tolerate extremes of temperature, the pressure of the ocean depths as well as the vacuum of space, and tremendous amount of radiation, the Xotherian dislike of fire is well documented. Like their lord and master, Great Cthulhu, Xotherians can place themselves into sleep or suspended hibernation if need be for whatever period of time they desire.

     Presumably, the ultimate goal of the Xotherian Colonial presence is to wipe out all other so-called sentient life on Tellestia (Earth) on behalf of their lord and master, Great Cthulhu as its rightful ruler….when the stars are right. Other than dreams of cultist devotees, thru which Great Cthulhu communicates, there are no dialogues with any Xotherians, so mostly this is conjectural based on the dreams of cultist devotees who are not generally considered reliable sources. For the moment, Xotherians seem to be more focused on driving out the Elderians, Yithians, Yugguthians, and Yakshtondians first.

Yugguthians

     More often referred to as Mi-Go. Large pinkish wing flying part fungus, part crustacean. 1.5 meters tall with convoluted pyramided ellipsoid ring culminating with a ‘head‘ which appears to be no more than a mass of antennae. The body is covered with 3 pairs of arms plus a pair of membranous batlike wings which do not function well in standard terrestrial gravity and thin atmosphere. Extreme cold put them into a stage of suspended hibernation which they can stay almost indefinitely. They communicate with each other thru changing the shape and color of the antennae on their ‘head’, but are capable of making human type speech.

     Yugguthians possess advanced surgical knowledge, particularly neuroscience. One outstanding Yuguthian technology is the brain cylinder, where a brain can be kept alive indefinitely. Other apparatus can allow the brain in the cylinder to hear, see, and communicate.

     Yugguthians are devotees of Hastur and ally frequently with Byakhee, who serve Hastur. Despite that, the Brotherhood of the Yellow Sign, who worships Hastur, hunt Yugguthians. After some disenchantment with the Pain God Elder Dieties, Yugguthians no longer worship Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlothotep, or Shub-Niggurath.

     Somehow, wearing human skin disguises and clothing, Mi-Go can pass as humans in low lighting.

Their skin secretes large enough quantities of a mucous like substance that is sufficient to hamper mobility on the ground of their prey. Hunting Horrors coordinate attacks as if they share a consciousness. It is unknown the mechanism by which they induce fear and despair in their intended prey even before they are otherwise aware of their presence, it is unclear how they communicate to each other and coordinate. Extreme aversion to daylight or bright lights. Immune to electricity and cold and mind based attacks.

Somehow during this burning phase, the Fire Vampire can absorb some of their memories, presumably limited to what people are thinking while dying an excruciatingly painful death or whatever it is they prioritize in their near death experience. The Ktyngans can somehow share these memories with their fellow Ktyngans when in proximity. Ktnygans serve Fthaggua, who is like the other Ktyngans except is blue instead of red.

The Shoggoth default state is a 50 tons mass of eyes, gaping mouths, and pseudo pods.

     Eventually, after hundreds of millions of years of servitude, the Shoggoths evolved sentience and revolted against their Elderian slave masters. Shoggoths now mostly live in remote isolated shoggoth-only locales mostly in the Antarctic and deep undersea.

     Deep Ones (Dagonians) appear to have some cooperative ventures with the deep undersea Shoggoths.

Yet another is that Azathoth is the consciousness leftover from a previous universe imprinted upon the cosmic background microwave radiation.
