Fhtagn

The Fhtagn are a fictional race in the Marvel universe which first appeared in 2017 in issue #9 of the 1st volume of the Ben Reilly: Scarlet Spider comic book series.
==Background==
The Fhtagn are extradimensional eldritch entities which are able to bend the laws of physics and feed on evil. The vocalizations of the fhtagn are painful to humans, though if you have an evil soul you can withstand them. It's difficult to injure a fhtagn, even for superhumans.
Their appearance is that of a mass of tentacles surrounding a large fang-lined mouth with multiple prehensile tongues and a single telescopic eye-stalk. Its home dimension has not been seen yet, but it likes the bottom of the ocean, an area that is pitch dark, extremely cold, and with a high pressure.
==Inspiration ==
The Fhtagn would appear to take their name from the notorious R'lyehian phrase quoted in H. P. Lovecraft's "The Call of Cthulhu" "ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn", or "in his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu lies dreaming".
