The tall, slender
ghost's long, blond hair extended to the mid-back area of his black trenchcoat.
The Yithian possessed a conical body made of a rigid, rubbery material. It had
two great pincers extending from the shoulder area, and two long neck stalks.
One of the neck stalks terminated in a round yellow head with three eyes,
small, flowerlike ears, and a multitude of hairlike tentacles. The other neck
stalk terminated in a cluster of four red trumpet-like projections. The Yithian
slid like a snail on the great foot at the bottom of its conical body.

Earth's Dreamlands and Xura are the creations of H.P. Lovecraft.
The Zetar star system originates in the Star Trek universe and was mentioned in the original series episode The Lights of Zetar, written by the late Shari Lewis and Jeremy Tarcher. Zetar 6 (Zecor) is an expansion of the original concept and is the creation of Team Netherworld.
This is quite an interesting description of your character, very detailed.
ReplyDeleteThank you--or, rather, thanks to H.P. Lovecraft. The description really is his.
DeleteQuite the unique description! Does he leave a snail trail?
ReplyDeleteI hadn't considered it. He's highly advanced, so it's probably invisible. ;-)
DeleteWell I can surely visualize the Yithian now - great details there. Enjoyed the snippet!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I need to take notes from Lovecraft. He's the one who created the Yithian.
DeleteFantastic description of the Yithian.
ReplyDeleteI am greatly thanking H.P. Lovecraft for creating this memorable creature. :-)
