<p>It's stated many times these beings are from a place "where the natural laws are different" so I wouldn't really say they are tied to the material plane at all. Or at least not the plane we are on as we comprehend it.</p>
<p>But there are Lovecraftian monsters like Elder Things and Deep Ones that do have bodies like "normal" creatures, in that they can die through physical harm and violence.</p>
<p>I always considered these thing as indicators that the Elder Gods themselves were so alien and far removed from us that they simply did not care to be bothered with us. Azathoth is a blind idiot god that has other idiot gods prancing around it at the center of the universe playing pipes. In other words it's too powerful too actually care about much of anything. It's also in keeping with the Lovecraft theme, that if you open your eyes wide enough with knowledge and understanding you eventually realize you are a meaningless speck of dust and go mad.</p>
<p>BUT, Nyarlothotep has always been one of the few beings who could actually be dealt with by humans and as such i always thought he was one of the weaker entities in the pantheon.</p>I wouldn't in any way place the Great Old Ones as tied to the material plane IF we are using Lovecraft's work as cannon.
