Servitors of the Outer Gods

|
The Servitors of the Outer Gods are fictional characters of the Cthulhu Mythos, created by Howard Phillips Lovecraft.
As their name implies, they are servants of the powerful gods that swirl, writhe and dance endlessly before the throne of Azathoth, at the center of the universe. The Servitors play the insane flute tunes and drum beats to which the Outer Gods dance, and may be summoned to Earth to assist in worship and other occult ceremonies by cultists of the Mythos. These extra-dimensional beings have no fixed shape, although they are described as looking somewhere between a toad and an octopus.
