History
This "Elder God" was said to have been born in "night-black gulfs beyond the reach a madman's wildest dream" (possibly the Outer Dark). It was known as a god to the Bakalah, a people of the rain forest of the Black Kingdoms during the Hyborian Age.
It was summoned by women of the race inhabiting the Vale of Lost Women, who intended to sacrifice the Ophirean woman Livia of House of Chelkus to him. Conan the Cimmerian battled it and, despite being unable to slay it, force it to flee back.[1]
Notes
- This being was described as "some Elder God", and hailing from the Outer Dark.[1] It can hypothesized to be a demon of the third class, of extradimensional origin, one of the Old Ones, an N'Garai or a Mabdhara.
- That creature was created by Robert E. Howard in "The Vale of Lost Women" (published in 1967, after Howard's death), and was supposed to be part of the Cthulhu Mythos.[5]
