 | | They had some innate correspondences to the four elements of earth, air, fire and water: for example, the chief divinity, a winged, octopus-headed monstrosity named Cthulhu, was a sea-elemental; his half-brother, Hastur, was an air-elemental (and costantly at odds with Cthulhu); another, named Cthugha, was a fire-elemental, and so on. |
 | | These were known as the Great Old Ones, and subservient to them was a second group of minor entities called the Lesser Old Ones, comprised of beings who served the Great Old Ones as leaders of their minions or servants. |
 | | For example, the minions of Cthulhu were called the Deep Ones, led by Father Dagon and Mother Hydra, and the minions of Cthugha were the so-called "Flame-Creatures," whose leader Fthaggua, dwelt on a world called Ktynga, while the great air-elemental, Hastur, was served by the Outer Ones, under their leader N'gha-Kthun. |
