Eldritch Entities
Deep within the cosmic miasma, where the fabric of reality is woven and unraveled, there exists a Eldritch Entities of unimaginable proportions and ineffable nature. Their presence defies the very essence of comprehension, a manifestation of ancient alien power that transcends the boundaries of mortal understanding.

Perception by Mortals Appearance
As no mortal can see, hear, smell, touch, or taste an eldritch entity, the use of appearance and similar words is illogical. Mortals only perceive eldritch entities. The mortal's translates these perceptions into mental images, sounds, and smells that feel very real to the mortal, but are best described as hallucinations.These entities, shrouded in the cosmic miasma, materializes as grotesque yet enthralling fusions of surreal shapes and incomprehensible geometries. Their form, ever-changing and unsettling, teeter on the precipice of sanity, defying attempts to perceive them with mortal senses. Surface ripple with undulating patterns that seem to shift in and out of dimensions, unsettling the perceiver with an unsettling blend of familiarity and otherworldly peculiarity.
An otherworldly symphony accompanies the perception of an Erdrich power. Each symphony – a cacophony of eerie whispers, dissonant hums, and alien echoes that reverberate through the miasma. The very air around them seems to vibrate with an arcane resonance, as if the entity is simultaneously a conduit, source, and sink for the primordial forces that birthed the cosmos.
Psychology
Attempts to describe an eldritch entity's intentions or motivations are folly! They exist beyond the confines of mortal reasoning. They are a cosmic enigma, an ancient force that predates the birth of stars and galaxies.Their level of interaction and meddling with the world is limited in the current age, but they are there and always will be. Regrettably mortals have encountered them. If they are scheming, plotting, and planning a long term armageddon for The Peninsula, no one has any idea of it.
Physiology
While the everyday gods worshiped in the The Leitan Peninsula are meddlesome and present in the world, they are also mortal. However the Eldritch Entities are truly immortal and cannot be killed or eliminated by any fathomable process know to man or gods.Known Entities
Legends, folktales, stories, and nursery rhymes tell of many Erdrich entities. Historians and archivists have reached the consensus that there only three that have many names to confuse the matter.The first has been designated Hu by the Indigo Quill. It is believed that magic as it is known in The Peninsula all flows through Hu. Hu created the moons and much of the peninsula.
The second Tee named by that same order. Tee with their mastery of Ingeniare Miasma is the entity responsible for most of the inanimate objects on The Peninsula.
Finally, the third is Pa also identified by the Indigo Quill. It is well established that most life on The Leitan Peninsula exists, adapts, and evolves because of Pa's activities in the multiverse. The diversity of life is indicitive of his chaotic nature.
