Smith - Rlim Shaikorth, White Worm

The Great Old One taking the form of a titanic white maggot with simplistic face (Which I picture as similar to some extinct amphibians) It travels the seas on a giant iceberg; and has the power over absolute cold, killing it's enemies by freezing them to death, captured for days in the poses they took as they died. The creature apparently "cries" with bloody tears (Although I am pretty sure they are not a sign of sorrow, nor any other comprehensible emotion). These freeze almost instantly creating bloody stalagmites in front of it. Later they are employed in some unspoken rituals by Worm's followers.

"At sight of this entity, the pulses of Evagh were stilled for an instant by terror; and, following quickly upon the terror, his gorge rose within him through excess of loathing. In all the world there was naught that could be likened for its foulness to Rlim Shaikorth. Something he had of the semblance of a fat white worm; but his bulk was beyond that of the sea-elephant. His half-coiled tail was thick as the middle folds of his body; and his front reared upward from the dais in the form of a white round disk, and upon it were imprinted vaguely the lineaments of a visage belonging neither to beast of the earth nor ocean-creature. And amid the visage a mouth curved uncleanly from side to side of the disk, opening and shutting incessantly on a pale and tongueless and toothless maw. The eye-sockets of Rlim Shaikorth were close together between his shallow nostrils; and the sockets were eyeless, but in them appeared from moment to moment globules of a blood-coloured matter having the form of eyeballs; and ever the globules broke and dripped down before the dais. And from the ice-floor of the dome there ascended two masses like stalagmites, purple and dark as frozen gore, which had been made by the ceaseless dripping of the globules."
