Mythos[]

Chaugnar Faugn first appeared in the story The Horror from the Hills (Frank Belknap Long, 1931).

Hyperdimensional creature slightly resembling an elephant-headed human with webbed ears and a large disk at the end of its trunk. It spends most of its time immobile in a cavern on the Plateau of Tsang, only shifting its bulk when feeding upon a sacrificial victim.

When Chaugnar came to earth, the most advanced life forms on this planet were amphibians. Desiring to have a race of servitors, Chaugnar Faugn used amphibian tissue to create the Miri Nigri. Over the long eons, these beings continued to worship Chaugnar. The Miri Nigri consorted with the first humans to create a hybrid race, eventually giving rise to the abominable Tcho-tcho people.[1]
