Étienne-Laurent de Marigny

Étienne-Laurent de Marigny is an occultist from the New Orleans, the distinguished Creole student of mysteries and Eastern antiquities, known for his work "The Tarot: A Treatise" and his translation of the Seven Cryptical Books of Hsan. He is a close friend of Randolf Carter and the father of Henri-Laurent de Marigny. In "Through the Gates of the Silver Key" he is described as young-looking handsome man, slim, dark, and moustached.
De Marigny met Randolf Carter during the World War I, when they both served in the French Foreign Legion. After Carter’s disappearance he became his executor.
In Brian Lumley's "The Clock of Dreams" it is revealed that Étienne became a dreamer, and that his dreams "have carried him beyond hither to undreamed of regions - not only in Earth's Dreamlands but in those of distant worlds and dimensions".
