Gla’aki first appearance is in “The inhabitant of the Lake” by Ramsey Campbell. This ancient sluggish Great Old One dwells in the lake in the Severn Valley in Britain and is well known by his cult as wise beyond the mortal scope. His cult contains both willing followers that gleam the figments of sorcerous knowledge from their mighty master as well as zombified slaves on those unfortunate to be on the receiving end of his numerous metallic spines that his body bristles with. Not an exceptional piece of work but hey, I an back with business and doodling the big slug was quite a solid warmup ;)
