Voor

The Voors are an ancient race created by Lin Carter for his short story "The Secret in the Parchment". They have also appeared in the Call of Cthulhu role-playing game. 
Their name comes from the "kingdom of Voor" mentioned in Arthur Machen's "The White People", although it that story, the word didn't refer to any type of creature, but to something like a veil of darkness.
==Description==
The Voors are a race of puffy worm-like dwarves with white skin and no eyes, but this was not their original appearance. 
The Voors were once the most prosperous race on Earth, but steady out-competition by the Hyperboreans forced them underground. They worship a pantheon of chthonic gods including Tsathoggua, Abhoth, Atlach-Nacha, and Ubbo-Sathla.
