Shugoran

The Shugoran race look like smaller versions of Nyarlathotep's Shugoran form. They are amphibious and have black, catfish-like hides, with small wings—or fins—and long proboscises.



In the RPG...

Shugoran have mostly human-ranged stats, save for a slightly elevated CON. They have 3-point armour, and their claws only do an average of 7 damage. Their only unique trait is that they can use their proboscis to cover the mouth and nose of their victim, who will start suffocating. The victim also cannot act while being asphyxiated, though their allies can aid in their freedom.

In a video game...

I can't see any reason why a Shugoran wouldn't work in a game. They would, however, need to look sufficiently different to Deep Ones to avoid confusion.

In a film...

Though I'm not familiar with the source material, I think Shugoran would just come across as a generic "fish men" in a film.
