Hzioulquoigmnzhah

A rather reflective and philosophic deity who lives on Cykranosh (Saturn). He lives in a columned cavern where he quenches his thirst at a lake of liquid metal. He has no spouse or offspring. [CAS Pnom] He has ludicrously short legs, exceedingly elongated arms, and a round, sleepy-looking head hanging from a spherical body, as if it were turning a somnambulistic somersault. His furriness and somnolent expression give him a vague though inverted likeness to Tsathoggua. His locomotion is mainly on his hands, for the absurd legs are not half long enough for the steps he has to take. [CAS Door]

Hzioulquoigmnzhah is a male offspring of Cxaxukluth and is a brother of Ghizghuth and thus the paternal uncle of Tsathoggua. Cxaxukluth spawned Hzioulquoigmnzhah in a far star system and then brought him to Yuggoth. Hzioulquoigmnzhah emigrated to Yaksh (Neptune) at an early age to escape Cxaxukluth's cannibalistic tendencies. Wearying of the peculiar worship rendered by the Yakshians, Hzioulquoigmnzhah emigrated again, this time to Cykranosh. He was long worshipped by the quaint peoples of Cykranosh but grew tired of them and had retired from active life by the time of his encounter with the wizard Eibon. [Pnom] When the wizard Eibon arrived on Saturn and sought the aid of Hzioulquoigmnzhah, he said only "Iqhui dlosh odhqlonqh," meaning "Be on your way" [Door].
