Vortakhx

Vortakhx is a primitive world, without the advancement of spaceflight yet under their command. Under its thick and stormy atmosphere lays a desolate world, fully infested by a insectoid species known as the Vorxans, whose people have infested the planet to the point nearly all resources are gone, all devoured by the ravaging hierarchical hives.
The surface of the planet itself is pretty desolate, with most of it being a toxic wasteland hidden by its thick atmosphere. The surface itself is a hard carapace, protecting the endless hives that lay below, Tubes originating from the hives pumping out the toxic gasses which pollute its atmosphere. Underneath this crust is a unknowable horror, with the numerous Vorxan Hives populating and carving through the entire planet.
== Vorxan Society ==
Thousands of "Queen" Vorxans under the command of the eldest of them all, the Vorxan Matriarch. The queens command groups of more lesser, worker and drone vorxans tending to the planet spanning hives and fiefdoms. The entire hive is "neuralogically linked" to the point that they have been described as moving like one entity.
== Invasion from the stars ==
Cthulhu, High Priest of the Elder Overseers solidified his recent conquest of Solarya moved on to the next world needed for the completion of his plan, the planet Vortakhx. He descedned upon the world and worlds. offered the Vorxans the possibility to expand and infest other worlds, as he descended upon their world, offering them the chance to infest countless worlds and spread their hives across the stars.
To his surprise, the Vorxans did not immediately accept his demands however just acted how their primal instincts lead them to, attempting to infest the High Priest to create more of their kind. This lead to the High Priest to regrettably have to exterminate of billions of their species so that hey would not be consumed. He had realised his journey to find the queens of the hive to bring them under his control in order to rule the Vorxans may be more difficult than expected, so he took a step back for a little bit to study what his next move should be in this conquest. 
He pondered, it was impossible that so many queens could cohesively coordinate so many drones and workers, Until he realised the truth behind Vortakhx. Near the center of the planet must be the one true ruler of the Vorxans, the Matriarch of the queens, who directed all of their commands. If he were to gain control over the Vorxans then she would be the key to the puzzle. He bored his way through the planet, until he found the Matriarch, abducting her leaving the planet in anarchy until he returned.
=== Joining R'lyeh ===
The High Priest attempted for a long time to find the secret of how the Matriarch controlled the Vorxans, yet he failed to find success. Eventually he was forced to choose a risky option, which was to merge his and her essence in a attempt to become the matriarch of the Vorxans. This was risky due to the fact that she may infact gain control over him instead, and even if she didn't her consciousness would remain in his mind forever. The deed had already been done though.
Cthulhu then descended back down onto Vortakhx, manipulating the now loyal Vorxan Hives to his own whim, transforming them into a more intelligent race, capable of sapient behaviours while eliminating their mindless brutish horde tactics, and granted them the technology capable of controlling the ion storms of the planet as a powerful weapon on the par of the strongest plasma rifles.
