Quumyagga

Quumyagga is a fictional monster created by Lin Carter for his Cthulhu Mythos fiction. The first and oldest member of the Shantak species, it is the leader of all the Shantaks who serve Groth-Golka. As such, Quumyagga is considered the prototype of the race and one of the Lesser Old Ones. (: "The Descent into the Abyss", "The Fishers from Outside", "The Horror in the Gallery")
==Description==
Quumyagga is a giant bird-like creature covered in both feathers and scales, with a single eye and a single leg, as well as a hooked beak. (: "The Descent into the Abyss")
According to the Book of Eibon, Quumyagga dwells either in the high peaks of the Plateau of Leng or in the chasm beneath Mount Antarktos. (: "The Fishers from Outside")
==Behind the Mythos==
The original versions of the stories that mention Quumyagga claim that it is a servant of Gol-goroth, but this was later changed to Groth-Golka. Carter always intended it to be Groth-Golka, but confused the name of the two deities due to the fact that both were featured in "The Gods of Bal-Sagoth", by Robert E. Howard.
