Gugs

Gugs are a species of creatures featured in The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. They are large, black-furred beasts with vertically-opening fanged jaws. Their two eyes protrude from either side of their head, and their limbs terminate in two paws each. Gugs are worshippers of the Great Ones. They are 16 feet tall and weigh nearly 2000 pounds.
The City of the Gugs is a colossal, horrifying cityscape of soaring, cyclopean towers. It is the dwelling place of the gugs, banished to the Underworld by a covenant of the gods. Close by the city is the cemetery of the gugs, its graves marked by huge stone monoliths. Ghouls often dine here; a deceased gug feeds them for almost a year.
Gugs sometimes plague the Enchanted Forest from their lairs below.
