Cxaxukluth

Cxaxukluth (Ksaksa-Kluth, Illimitable Androgynous Desire) is an Outer God and is the offspring of Azathoth by spontaneous fission. According to at least one genealogical chart, its progeny are Hziulquoigmnzhah, Ghisguth, and Tulu. It is described as an androgynous being, capable of reproducing asexually. Via Ghisguth, it is the grandparent of Tsathoggua.
Cxaxukluth dwells on Yuggoth. Its immediate family lived with it for a while, but soon left because of its cannibalistic appetites.
The Second Epistle of Eibon unto his Disciples, or The Apocalypse of Eibon reports that Cxaxukluth divided itself into a masculine and feminine aspects, the masculine was called Nug, the feminine being called Yeb, and then produced their various offspring together. This text also refers to Cxaxukluth as the "Illimitable Androgynous Desire" prior to the split.
There is additional speculation that Ptmâk and Cxaxukluth may have only been the Hyperborean names for Nug and Yeb. Cxaxukluth is probably Yeb (: "The Second Epistle of Eibon unto his Disciples, or The Apocalypse of Eibon" , Robert M. Price is included in The Book of Eibon (Chaosium, 2002)). Ptmâk has been identified as the immediate parent of Cthulhu (a.k.a. Tulu), which might mean that Ptmâk and Cxaxukluth either mated with each other to spawn Cthulhu, or are merely different names or avatars for the same entity.
==Behind the Mythos==
The creature was invented, outside of fiction, in the letters by Clark Ashton Smith to Robert H. Barlow, and published in the article "The Family Tree of the Gods" in The Acolyte fanzine (issue 7, Summer 1944). It was also featured in the works of Richard L. Tierney.
