"Colon looked up from the grisly remains to see one of the extramundane defenders of Castle Eldritch. An unearthly creature of the nether gulfs stood before him, summoned forth from the night of ages by the sorceress and her unspeakable consort. The apparition stood twelve feet above the tesselated floor of the hall, and its slime-washed belly was six feet from side to side. A fang-filled, slavering mouth filled most of the face, and above it three crimson eyes glittered balefully. The monster had four arms, the upper tow ending in huge, long-clawed, grasping hands and the lower two trailing obscene tentacles on the floor behind. A pungent odor of brimstone, open graves, and B. O. hung around the thing, as as it advanced slithering towards him Colon heard a repulsive slobbering sound emerge from its gaping maw."
