Ngyr-Khorath
The Great Old One Ngyr-Khorath (AKA "The Ultimate Abomination", "The Dream-Death", the "Magnum Tenebrosum", and "The Mad God of the Void") originated in W.C. DeBill's "Ngyr-Khorath (fiction)".
In the Mythos
Ngyr-Khorath is said to have existed before the planets, haunting the star-spaces, appearing as a dark blue-green mist which causes a sense of terror as it approaches, an eye of flame forming within. Enraged by the arrival of life in the universe, Ngyr-Khorath began devouring stars. Its legend (part of the so-called "Mlandoth Myth Cycle") appears in the Book of Thoth, The Chronicles of Thrang, The Texts of Mloeng, and the Uralteschrecken, in which Von Könnenberg suggests that Ngyr-Khorath is an aspect of Mlandoth and Mril Thorion. Ngyr-Khorath has a cult, and an avatar, 'Ymnar, which he spawned by fission, and his nemesis is the Elder God Paighon.
'Ymnar
Ymnar ("The Dark Stalker" or "Seducer of Earthly intelligences") is the spawn of Ngyr-Khorath by fission, a shape-shifting entity that may grant great powers to whoever chooses to serve it and its master, though its tue aim is to serve its father toward the ultimate goal of the destruction of all sentient and intelligent life in the Cosmos.
