Hideous Creatures: Shoggoth
Infinitely plastic and ductile - slaves of suggestion¸ builders of cities - more and more sullen … intelligent … amphibious … and imitative!" If something can take any shape¸ what is its true nature? Are the shoggoths slave machines or biotech Singularity? Are they one or many? Tekeli-li!
Abdul Alhazred attempted desperately to claim that there were none of these fetid¸ oozing¸ protoplasmic monstrosities on Earth itself¸ save in crazed dreams or alkaloid visions. He was wrong.
These shapeless black blobs boil with green eyes and iridescent bubbles¸ making and unmaking any organs or tendrils needed for a given task. A multicellular protoplasmic mass¸ the shoggoth can exert prodigious strength or ooze through the tiniest cracks. Their matter is neither plant nor animal¸ at base somewhat like fungi or algae but capable of mimicking or adapting any organic form needed or desired.
