DUCKS!!!!! Captain Runch is responsible for most of the obsession with Ducks by both the players and fans

Notable lines:

• The Lightless Beacon @ 25:00 "Have I ever told you about the USS Tallahassee? It went down off the coast of Innsmouth. 1100 men went in the water. 316 men came out. Ducks took the rest. They're all gathered up in the water in squares, y'know, like one of those old battle formations in Waterloo. When a duck's coming close we're just pounding and hollering, and sometimes the ducks go away, sometimes they don't go away. They just swim up, they look at you in the eyes with those dead, duck eyes. They got black eyes, y'know, like a doll's eyes, 'till they roll back and that beak comes in for your face. 1100 men went in the water. 316 men came out. Ducks took the rest."

Cameos in The Radio Man and Children of the Abyss

Runch is a saltly old sea captain, with a beard, who wears a Pea Coat and Sea Captains Cap and carries a fouling piece.
