Yoth-Tlaggon

Yoth-Tlaggon is an obscure Great Old One first appearing in Ken Asamatsu's 1994 short stories, The Mask of Yoth-Tlaggon and Queen of K'n-yan.
Originally, the name was mentioned in the heading of a letter from Howard Phillips Lovecraft to Clark Ashton Smith.
"Yoth-Tlaggon ―at the Crimson Spring Hour of the Amorphous Reflection."
Although the inclusion of strange terms and cryptic references were very common in Lovecraft's letters, Yoth-Tlaggon does not appear to relate to any entity or concept present in the work of Lovecraft. Ken Asamatsu included Yoth-Tlaggon in his stories, depicting it as a slug-like being covered with wrinkles and scales, and endowed with innumerable eyes. It also appears that he has a mask shaped like an inverted triangle. The creature is worshiped in Yuggoth and served by the electromagnetic wave lifeform known as Illewik. A related artefact is the Mask of Yoth-Tlaggon, which grants the bearer knowledge of the past and future.
