Uzuldaroum is a city created by the late American author and Lovecraft contemporary Clark Ashton Smith for his Hyperborean Cycle series of fantasy fiction.
Overview[]
Built after the citizens of Commoriom were forced to abandon their former home, Uzuldaroum became the new capital of Hyperborea in the days of that great civilisation. Although an opulent city, it did not compare to its predecessor, which it lay but a day or twos travel from.
One of the gods worshipped there was named Leniqua, to whom a temple was maintained. The temple's priests maintained a harem of young and beautiful women who they sold to the wealthiest men of the city on certain nights of religious significance. They believed this act to be one of worship. What Leniqa was a god of is unknown.
Notable People[]
- King Loquamethros, the city's founder.
