Ecology: The gnoph-keh are a rare race of beings who dwell in the far north, usually on glaciers and ice caps. They may come down into the lowlands if food is scare or the weather is extremely harsh. It’s possible a degenerate tribe of humans worships the gnoph-keh, using them as a totem beast and as a go-between to Ithaqua.
Personality/Motivation: Normal animal motivations. The gnoph-keh are quite intelligent and often do Ithaqua's bidding (such as it is).
Powers/Tactics: The gnoph-keh have two major forms of attack: their claws and horns, or intense storm of cold and snow. Prey items will be attacked with claws and horns and devoured shortly thereafter. A large group (such as a village) will be subject to the blizzard and intense cold effects. The gnopgh-keh often use this power to demonstrate the displeasure of Ithaqua.
Appearance: A gnoph-keh is a huge beast covered with thick hair. It has six legs, sharp claws, plenty of teeth, and a long horn on its nose. The general appearance is of a six-limbed polar bear.
Designer's Notes: The gnoph-keh is a creature of the Cthulhu Mythos of H.P. Lovecraft. This design was based upon the gnoph-keh presented in the 5th Edition of Call of Cthulhu.
