The Mi-Go are fictional characters of the Cthulhu Mythos, a race of alien beings created by Howard Phillips Lovecraft.
The Mi-Go (or Fungi from Yuggoth) are large, fungoid, crustacean entities the size of a man with the head being an orb covered in sesory appendages. Although they originate from beyond our solar system, they have set up an outpost on Pluto (known as Yuggoth in the mythos) and sometimes visit Earth to mine for minerals and to get various other natural resources.
They can carry humans from Earth to Pluto and back by removing the human's brain from his skull and placing it in a "brain canister", which can be attached to external devices to allow it to hear, see, and speak.
These creatures were first featured in the short story "The Whisperer in Darkness" by H.P. Lovecraft.
The Mi-Go are also prominent antagonists in Pagan Publishing's Delta Green role-playing game sourcebook for the Call of Cthulhu role-playing game.
Mi-Go normally communicate via changing colours and odd buzzing noises, but are able to speak any human language with surgical modification.
The Mi-Go worship the beings Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, Hastur, and Shub-Niggurath, among others, although their religious beliefs seem to have relatively minor importance compared to their scientific interests. Their moral system is totally alien to us, causing them to seem highly malicious.de:Mi-go ko:미-고
