Description
Cthulhu bestows life on his earthly son while cephalopod cherubs rejoice in the heavens!Ballpoint pen again, because it's fun. I tinted it a sepia color digitally because it makes it look all cool and Renaissancey. Fun fact, the sepia pigment was originally derived from squid ink!

technically cuttlefish, i learned that this week!
sepe (i think it is in latin) comes from the word for cuttlefish (or something, im mixing facts and spelling bad)
umum, given the way squids flap their fins like wings, it's be a neat touch to have made the fins into wings to further convey the cherub idea!

"And so Cthulhu said... something in Welsch, I didn't quite catch all of it, but "this is awesome" was the phrase that stood out to me." -Genesis: The Squid's Version

"And then Cthulhu said... aww, fuck this. I don't speak Welsch. Can we get a translator in here?" - same source as the other quote.

I love those guys. Too bad their alignment has to be evil. XwX I would like a neutral Mind Flayer...

Me too. A neutral one would be fun.

...And a happy-go-lucky Neutral Good one would be SCARY. 8D;;
...I'm making that my GOAL now. What kind of excuse could I have? Hmm... a harmless wood elf was magically transplanted into a Mind Flayer's body! xDDD; Or something. The DM would never accept that. X-X *cry*
