Dark One (disambiguation)

The term "Dark Ones" has multiple meanings within the Cthulhu Mythos.
The wizard John Carnby claimed that his brother and fellow sorcerer Helman Carnby was "more favored by the Dark Ones". As he identifies himself and his brother as being "in the service of Satan and of Those who were before Satan", it's possible that these beings include the Dark Ones. (: "The Return of the Sorcerer")
In the R'lyeh Text, as translated by Bryant Hoskins, the Dark Ones are the servitor race that serves Ghatanothoa, under the leadership of Yeb (: "Behind the Mask") Therefore, it's possible that they might be the Lloigor species, which have likewise been identified as Ghatanothoa's minions (: "The Return of the Lloigor").
