The more recognizable living bodies were dissociated alarmingly without any noticeable injury, while some others were composed of parts varying familiarity, together with portions that did not seem to belong at all.

The Gof’nn Hupadgh Shub-Niggurath the favored, once-human worshipers of [[Shub-Niggurath]]. When the deity deems a worshiper to be most worthy, a special ceremony is held in which the Black Goat of the Woods swallows the initiate and then regurgitates the cultist as a transformed satyr-like being. A changed worshiper is also endowed with immortal life.
