Cthylla [SEP] father
Cthylla
Cthylla (the "Secret Daughter of Cthulhu") is a fictional character in the Cthulhu Mythos of H. P. Lovecraft. Cthylla was created by Brian Lumley, who originally mentioned her in his Titus Crow novel "The Transition Of Titus Crow" (1975), though he never actually described her. Tina L. Jens, however, depicted Cthylla as a gigantic winged-octopus in her short story "In His Daughter's Darkling Womb" (1997).
Cthylla's name may be a reference to Scylla,
Cthylla by researchers who mistakenly believe her to be a rare specimen of a previously undiscovered octopus species. For the sake of preserving and studying the species, they then attempt to impregnate her through artificial self-insemination.
In Peter Rawlik's "In the Hall of the Yellow King" (2011), Cthylla is featured in a more humanoid form or avatar as a possible bride for Hastur.
