Kuranes

Kuranes (real name is unknown) is the greatest of all dreamers, creator and ruler of Celephaïs.
== Biography ==
In the waking world, Kuranes was of landed gentry in Cornwall, but as his fortunes declined he retreated into fantasy and drug use, eventually dying impoverished and homeless. In his dreams, he created the city of Celephaïs in the valley of Ooth-Nargai, and presumably the cloud city of Serannian, which was connected with Celephaïs. After he died in the waking world, he became the king of Celephaïs. 
Kuranes is the only dreamer who has gone to the outermost void "where no dreams reach", that is the court of Azathoth, and survived with both life and sanity intact.
Kuranes is now king of the entire land of Ooth-Nargai. He rules from the rose-crystal Palace of Seventy delights in Celephaïs, though prefers to live most of the time in a nearby area he created to resemble the house in Cornwall where he had lived as a boy. Randolph Carter and King Kuranes are close friends.
His real name is never revealed in original stories, but in Kid Celephais animated series he is known as Augustus Trevor. According to the series, Kuranes has become cryptomnesic. He is reiterating a dream of Cornwall, Kornweal, as his home. He no longer remembers his original human life or his glorious godlike life as a king in the Dreamlands.
