Description
The morkoth is a humanoid-squid being, that dwells in spiraling tunnels underwater. Those who see the tunnels are pulled straight to the morkoth, as the tunnels have a hypnotic effect. The morkoth then devours the victim. For its shadowy behavior, it is called, "the wraith of the deep."[citation needed]
