Cosmic and Body Horror

The Great Race's members were immense rugose cones ten feet high, and with head and other organs attached to foot-thick, distensible limbs spreading from the apexes. They spoke by the clicking or scraping of huge paws or claws attached to the end of two of their four limbs, and walked by the expansion and contraction of a viscous layer attached to their vast, ten-foot bases.

Cosmic and Body Horror

A terrified human figure stands on the brink of a floating island, surrounded by swirling, multi-colored moons and a looming, decaying castle that twists impossibly into the sky. A monstrous, shape-shifting beast writhes nearby, its form flickering between dragon, animal, and shadow, while the air glows with unnatural aqua light and the ground dissolves into a void of swirling cosmic mist. The scene is drenched in oppressive darkness, with jagged, illogical architecture, glowing sigils etched into the stone, and the human’s face contorted in horror and confusion—suggesting the presence of vast, unknowable entities lurking just beyond perception.
