Ythogtha is the second son of Cthulhu and resembles a gigantic, humanoid frog, or Deep One, with but a single, huge eye in the center of his forehead like a cyclops. A dense mane and a beard of writhing tentacles grows from his head. Ythogtha is incredibly large; when the sorcerer-priest Zanthu attempts to free Ythogtha from his prison, he mistakes his god's clawed, slimy fingertips for mountainous heads. The Elder Gods imprisoned Ythogtha in the Abyss of Yhe. He is served by the planarian-like yuggs and their lord, Ubb, The Father of Worms.
