The name of the Dweller in the Abyss is Choronzon, but he is not really an individual. The Abyss is empty of being; it is filled with all possible forms, each equally inane, each therefore evil in the only true sense of the word, that is, meaningless but malignant.


Well, dang. that sort of sucks. I was rooting for the other guy... but that's always how it is when you aren't able to root for your own team.
