R'lyeh is a deep sleeper that resides in the darkest depths of the ocean most of the time. He vividly dreams for years upon years before finally emerging from the water for short periods. He finds himself wandering on land in a bit of a waking nightmare as he leaves behind the dreamlands he concocted. Each time he wakes the world has taken another surge forward in technology, culture and design which leaves him as a literal "fish out of water".

    Being an oddity he normally runs into others who're just as strange as he is, as well as others looking to study the hybridic cryptids. Because of this he experiments with fashion often, typically donning a new look each time he emerges, as to elude would-be captors. He's also a powerful swimmer and will jump into just about any body of water to avoid pursuers.

    He's not overly social and definitely prefers his solitude during his ventures, but isn't unfriendly. While on land he indulges in a few things the ocean can't offer; rain, fashion and orchestras.
