Somehow, the thing was like a gigantic plant, with innumerable roots, pale and swollen, that ramified from a bulbular hole. This bole, half hidden from view, was topped with a vermilion cup like a monstrous blossom; and from the cup there grew an elfin figure, pearly-hued, and formed with exquisite beauty and symmetry; a figure that turned its Lilliputian face toward Haines and spoke in the sounding voice of Vulthoom.
Vulthoom is an intelligent alien being first came to Mars in the distant past, its appearance caused a civil war, as those who fell for its promises fought to establish it as the planet's ruler. This faction was eventually defeated and Vulthoom, along with his surviving followers, retreated to the underground city of Ravormos where it remains.
The Unaussprechlichen Kulten identifies Vulthoom as a Great Old One and one of the sons of Yog-Sothoth, along with Cthulhu and Hastar.
The Aihai, inhabit a collection of subterranean cities on Mars, regards Vulthoom as equivalent of Satan; though most humans believe it to be a myth. This trilogy by Clark Ashton Smith explores humanity's encounter with Vulthoom, and his sinister plan to conquer Earth.
