			Scions of Tsathoggua are enormous, bloated, greasy, stinking, leathery, slimy black toad-things with four or more thick legs terminating in hooves, dozens of tentacles, and a pair of huge, tattered, membranous wings which sprout from their slimy backs. Curving fangs extend from bony ridges in a wide mouth, and their numerous unblinking, throbbing eyes are milky white, and the creatures produce an unnerving, child-like tittering sound, possibly for bat-like echolocation and navigation in the deep, black caverns and subterranean temples where they nest and normally dwell, acting as guardians and accepting sacrifices on behalf of the [[Great Old One]]s.


			<!--
			==Heresies and Controversies==
			Optional. This is a good place to include non-canon and controversial aspects of the creature's mythos.
			Suggested Alternative Theories include: Derleth's elemental scheme; pseudo-science interpretation;
			"fanon" interpretations; unofficial humorous or eccentric versions;
			identification with "Real Life" mythological, religious, folklore, natural, and historical phenomena;
			rumor and speculation... these contribute some flexibility and ambiguity to the mythos.
