Background[]

Xotli is a Lovecraftian demonic god which was worshiped in Antilla during the Hyborian Age. It threatened all of humanity, and would have killed Conan at the Great Pyramid of Ptahuacan if it wasn't for the intervention of the god Mitra. Xotli did not fully manifest on Earth at that time, all that was visible were great tentacles emerging from a sinister black cloud.
