#The Japanese name being 'Goutisu' definitely contributed to my thinking that the name was supposed to be a play on 'ghost'

Ghoti of the Deep Beyond

I thought maybe the name of this archetype was a reference to ghosts (considering that this monster looks ethereal and ghostly), but it's actually a reference to one of those fucked up ways to spell "fish." Which is why all of these guys are fish (or fish adjacent, like this guy). It doesn't explain the otherworldly look they went for, but that's okay, because it's still really cool and beautiful regardless. This monster specifically evokes eldritch creatures to me. That probably has to do with the multitude of glowing yellow eyes, serpentine body, and the fact that it's clearly floating through the void of space. Somehow. Man, I think I just really love the celestial void colors present along the length of this monster's body. Idk if those rocks are supposed to be part of its body or part of the background though.
