Powers and abilities
- Superhuman Physical Characteristics
- Enhanced Senses (Flying Polyps lack sight, instead seeing the world as a "non-physical pattern of impressions", and their senses could penetrate "all material barriers")
- Invisibility (Flying Polyps are described as experiencing "temporary lapses in visibility", and even when fleeing from "tides of abomination", Nathaniel only heard the whistling sound of their presence, implying they can turn invisible)
- Limited Intangibility (Described as "only partly material" which made harming them through conventional physical means difficult, though it is still stated that their bodies were unable to penetrate all material barriers)
- Non-Physical Interaction (Can presumably interact with each other)
- Flight
- Wind Manipulation,
- Mind Control & Possession (Their minds were "of such texture" that the Great Race of Yith was unable to swap or control their minds)
- Electricity Manipulation (The Great Race of Yith was unable to stop the Flying Polyps final assault on their civilisation despite having the "lightning guns" that had been able to destroy them previously, implying they had adapted to overcome that weakness)
Weaknesses
Low Technology, Can be affected by certain electrical currents. However, they seem to have adapted to this, as after many years, they were capable of resurfacing and attacking the Great Race of Yith in such a way that the Yithians had no countermeasures.
Ranked tied for #11 of 23 in Cthulhu Mythos by strength.
