Shoggoth

= Description =

The 24th century. In the shadow of prosperity by nanomachines, runaway proliferating nanomachines have created countless monsters. Although their makers deny their existence, there is no doubt that they exist.

Furthermore, due to the magical power overflowing from the "Great Transformation," these amorphous monsters began to acquire a sense of self. The spirits called "slime queens" are representative examples.

Others have acquired an ego more akin to that of a human being.

Humans call these amorphous intelligent beings "Shoggoths" in reference to the monsters of the Cthulhu Mythos.

Perhaps because Shoggoths have acquired human egos, they have begun to mimic humans and blend in with human society. Their slimy skin and organic-like costumes are their distinctive features.

Their bodies a essentially amorphous and can produce organs as needed. They can change color at will.

Clothing is only an obstacle to this physical transformation. Hence, the clothing worn by most Shoggoths is mimetic.

However, there are many strange rumors about the Shoggoths.

Some of them are the "real thing," so to speak, as described in the Cthulhu Mythos, created by an ancient race hundreds of millions of years ago...

They are also said to be a mixture of avatars that are the product of inhumane corporate experimentation and avatars of gods that failed to descend.

This is believed to be a misconception due to the high degree of individual variation...

In fact, the corporations deny the existence of slimes, and the Shoggoths are treated as "peculiar spirits or deities”.

The day when the truth will be revealed to mankind will be far off.

Aside from the truth of the rumors, the amorphous Shoggoth can easily encase something as large as a human being. It can be transported as is and can destroy the body and mind of their captive with pressure or drugs.

It is a perfect ability for abduction and smuggling.

Hence, many Shoggoths become hunters or find a place in criminal organizations.
