Mythos[]
Proto-Shoggoths first appeared in the story At the Mountains of Madness (H.P. Lovecraft, 1931).
Proto-Shoggoth is a material the Elder Things derived from Ubbo-Sathla to form their shoggoth servitors. Some of this material has survived to the present day, where it is used in scientific experiments of the mi-go and humans alike. Proto-shoggoth matter melds easily with other living matter, often enhancing its capabilities and making it hardier and more difficult to destroy.[1]
