The Deep Ones are humanoid, amphibious men-fish, cold-blooded creatures of great strength (18). They can attack with their clawed, webbed hands, or wield weapons. They have infravision as well as normal sight. They live near the land on ocean shelves and are able to travel to the land at any time and for as long as they wish.

They have been known to interact with evil humans and interbreed with them. This results in human-appearing offspring who undergo a gradual transformation after the age of 21 that causes them to become as the Deep Ones who spawned them. The Deep Ones are soulless and apparently immortal.

These creatures promote evil in preparation of Cthulhu's return. They do this by collecting treasures from the sea and using them as funds to spread the cult of Cthulhu and the Old Ones.
