"I think they have a sort of greyish green body, although the belly is white. Most of the body was shiny and slippery, but the back had high ridges with scales. The figure had the vague features of a humanoid, while the head was that of a fish, with never-closed, huge, bulging eyeballs. On either side of the neck, there were also gills that fluttered constantly, and long arms and legs that were webbed. They leap forward promiscuously, sometimes on their hind legs only, and sometimes on all fours ...... Their hoarse, shrill guttural voice ...... conveys, what their faces cannot, all the darkness of their feelings."-Howard Philip Lovecraft“我想它们的身体应该呈一种灰暗的绿色，虽然肚皮是白色的。身体的大部分都光亮滑溜，但背上有着带鳞的高脊。那身形有着人形的模糊特征，而头部却是鱼类的，长着从不闭合的，巨大、凸出的眼球。在脖颈的两旁，还有不断颤动的鳃，长长的手脚上都有蹼。它们杂乱无章地跳跃向前，有时只用后腿，有时则四肢着地……它们那嘶哑的、尖锐的喉音……传达了其面部所无法表现的，一切黑暗的感情。”–霍华德·菲利普·洛夫克拉夫特，《印斯茅斯的阴霾》
