	The '''Beings of Ib''' or '''Ibians''' are a race of amphibious, [[gnome]]-like humanoids from the Dreamlands portion of the Cthulhu Mythos invented by [[H.P. Lovecraft]]. Appearing in the story "The Doom that Came to Sarnath", they were described as having erected a stone city called Ib on the banks of a vast seepage lake (meaning it has no inlet or outlet streams, but instead seeps up from an underground aquifer), located somewhere in the land of Mnar. The Ibians were described as having “…bulging eyes, pouting, flabby lips, and curious ears, and were without voice.” In addition, these creatures were known to have a thin, greenish skin. They were also known to worship Bokrug, the great water-lizard, and dance in front of a stone idol of this being when the moon was gibbous. They were ultimately wiped out by human settlers who built a nearby city of their own called Sarnath, but their ghosts returned a thousand years later and drove the inhabitants from Sarnath, scattering them across Mnar and drowning the city in revenge.
