It existed far before humanity, was summon by humans who thought they could use it and controll it. Its mind and body altering. invisible and (somewhat) impossible to grasp fully.
It’s reminiscent of Lovecraftian monsters but it isn’t “literally” one. That word is so fucking overused.

It also glows a pretty blue color to attract new victims.
It still trips me out that visible light, infrared, microwave radiation, radio waves, x-rays, ultraviolet, and even laser beams are all just photons.
Particle radiation is a whole other can of worms. It boggles the mind.
oddly enough, Lovecraft’s Colour out of Space kinda mirrors the effects of radiation sickness (with “kinda” doing some very heavy lifting there)
