Haon-Dor

Haon-Dor is a fictional character created by Clark Ashton Smith for his short story "The Seven Geases".
==Description==
Described as an "antehuman" sorcerer, Haon-Dor belongs to an unknown species that predates humankind. He currently lives as a recluse in a labyrinthine palace of stone deep inside Mount Voormithadreth, beyond the gulf inhabited by Atlach-Nacha. The entrance to his palace is a staircase guarded by a giant rattlesnake. The interior is decorated with statues of polycephalic monsters, illuminated by floating lamps that burn with "inverse flames", and inhabited by scores of carnivorous mist-like familiars that crawl and slither upon the walls.
Haon-Dor himself seats upon a throne so high that it appears to be reachable only by levitation or flight. He speaks in an unknown language, but has the power to make himself understood by any listener. He is an ally of the scholarly Serpent People, and also seems to have an amicable relationship with Atlach-Nacha. (: "The Seven Geases")
