Description

August William Derleth and Mark Schorer originally created a  typically unspeakable Lovecraftian tentacled monstrosity called the Lloigor as one of the Twin Obscenities Great Old Ones in their short story "The Lair of the Star-Spawn" (1932).  The other one being his twin brother Zhar.  Derleth  mentioned Lloigor in several other writings, "The Sandwin Compact" (1940)  in particular where he was apparently a type of wind element who had the ability to draw his sacrificial victims into his clutches through a sort of teleportation.
