Like a gargoyle, the bat-headed, bat-winged Achololim perches atop the parapets of the Demon City.  Jet-black skin, threaded with scars white as bone, covers his muscular frame, and his barbed tail lashes the air.  Wherever he goes, even into Creation, the very stones beneath his feet whisper their own secret dooms.  Achololim awaits the coming of a nameless being whose destiny has been blazoned upon the twisted skies of Malfeas.  He knows nothing of the one he seeks, not even whether it is a demon, a mortal, or some other thing; but he continues to watch, and wait, for he knows that his time will come.

Those who would travel fast and far have been known to call upon Alalgar.  He appears as a massive man swathed in violet draperies that swirl in an unseen wind.  But to part his draperies reveals no body beneath, only a cold and windy darkness.  Those who pass through that darkness find themselves elsewhere, for Alalgar is a bridge to other places, both in Malfeas and Creation.  He ensnares those who offend him in cocoons of violet cloth, then casts them through his inner darkness to meet some bleak and lonely doom.

'''Author''': [[Quendalon]]

'''Author''': [[Sindaen]]
  
Alioth appears as a cloud of velvety blackness that drifts like fog upon the air. His embrace grants the gift of solitude; those within know only darkness, cut off from all light and from all sound other than their own voice and the beating of their heart. For over a thousand years, Alioth has been bound within the Tomb of Night under the city of Nexus, and he yearns to be free.
+
The typical Adrymne consist of ten million iron ants, each twice the size of a flea. If they choose to become one being, the ants coalese into an amorphous humanoid shape made entirely of rust and thriving ants. The Adrymne love nothing more that to erode things of beauty and usefulness, and are a constant plague in the Demon Realm. When summoned, the Adrymne can easily devour 2,000 lbs of common metal or stone in an hour, leaving only rusty flakes or a mound of dust. They can also build trenches or underground tunnels large enough for a man to walk straight five miles in just a day. If commanded to do so, the Adrymne also can consolidate to form a bridge, or a chain made of small iron ants. The Adrymne never sleep.

'''Title''': Wisdom and Indulgent, The Blood-Sacrament<br>
 
'''Author''': [[Shataina]]
 
  
Anjelen, a double-sexed being, is a dichotomy within itself: male, it is an ascetic priest; female, it is a veritable Maenad. It loves sacred things, but its definitions of sacred and profane shift with its sex, along with its beliefs and emotions. The wise sorcerer avoids it, for they say that even some bindings do not apply to all its forms.

 +
'''Title''': Sailors on a Sea of Bile<br>
 +
'''Author''': DariusSolluman
  
=== Ataranta-Etana ===
+
The Antip are an ancient people, plying their ships of brass and bone across Malfeas' oceans and riverways.  They are all accomplished sailors and oarsmen, far surpassing any mortal at the task of piloting any craft that travels over the waves.  Each one is  stunted and horrific- a hunchback, tailed, with one eye as large as a saucer or open wounds that never close.  They claim to be searching for something they have yet to lose, and when it is found they will hide it from themselves, but in the meanwhile they act as both the navy and the commerce bringers that help tie the demon hosts together under a single banner of trade and travel.  For Malfeas is always growing, and beyond the edge of the map there be monsters.

+
=== [[Dimitryi/Ashteri | Ashteri]] ===
'''Title''': Messenger, the Prophet in the Waste<br>
 
'''Author''': [[Kalisara]]
 
  
A woman of living copper, burnished to brilliance by sand and wind, Ataranta-Etana walks the wastes outside the city and speaks prophecies of the freeing of the Yozis. When Kimbery floods Cecelyne and all demonkind is reborn in Cytherea's womb, then, Ataranta-Etana has said, the old oaths will have no more force and Creation will be theirs once more. A motley cult of lesser demons follow her, and every Calibration they sacrifice a demon - or, if they have one, a human - in Kimbery's waters or Cytherea's flames.

'''Title''': the Hissing Intrigues<br>
=== Azimer ===
+
'''Author''': [[Dimitryi]]
  
'''Lineage''': [[Malfeas]] / Ligier<br>
+
Occasionally, during Oshymitus' spying, those being watched, paranoid themselves, spot the capillary-eyes and cut them from the body of the demon from which they spring.  These dismembered pieces of Oshymitus sometimes grow into Ashteri, blood-red snakes whose hissings spread ideas of imaginary conspiracies, plots, and schemes to those unfortunate enough to hear them.  On very rare and ominous occassions, Ashteri rain upon the city of Malfeas from above, and the schemes they place in the minds of demons lead to catastrophic events for years to come.
'''Title''': Warden, the Hollow Knight<br>
 
'''Author''': [[Quendalon]]
 
  
Ligier is great among the demons of Malfeas.  He guards many treasures that he holds dear; he has many goals that he would see fulfilled.  The Hollow Knight serves as his right hand in such things.  Azimer appears as a knight clad wholly in shining green steel.  No flesh shows through his visor, nor through any chink in his armor.  His keen senses and skill in battle are without peer, and there are few in Malfeas or Creation who would dare stand against him when he wields his brother Gervesin in battle.  Should his visor be pried up, the armor falls away in a heap, lifeless and empty.

 +
'''Title''': The Thousand Cutpurses of Decay<br>
 +
'''Author''': EwindaleMoss
  
'''Lineage''': [[Tharalstrazix]] / Temozarael<br>
+
Axvus are often seen as the crows that fly from one end of the Fields to the other, hunting for corpses to pull the flesh from.  They are swift, silent, and thorough.  Even those that aren't completely dead yet may find a  beak full of their back or an unguarded eye being plucked from their body and carried back to the toothy pits of Adrigor for consumption.  While cats will always see an Axvus for what it truly is, these demons are called upon when a sorcerer needs something of value stolen from a rival.  In Creation, they are soft-spoken and androgynous young humanoids with eyes of midnight that leave feathers wherever they walk.  While the Axvus is always happy to ply its trade in Creation, it requires a full-size dead human to eat beforehand or else it may grow inattentive and stray from its task.
'''Title''': the Prince Of Spite, Expressive Soul of Temozarael<br>
 
'''Author''': [[Han'ya]]
 
  
Baashayel embodies Temozarael's rage and frustration. He is the active soul, carrying out his master's will in the world. He takes the form of a writhing column of blood in the rough shape of a man, clad in robes of the blackest, silkiest hair. No one who has struck him or one of his minions can escape his gaze, but his retribution to them will be proportionate to the slight he has suffered. A proportion of about a hundred to one, but it's a proportion. Every blow he strikes burns his foes with the fire of his wrath. He storms through the world, destroying without aim or forethought, every blow struck against his living prison a blow by proxy against the gods and their servants.

'''Title''': The Grief Without Warning<br>
 +
'''Author''': DariusSolluman
  
'''Lineage''': [[Kimbery]] / Persine<br>
+
Stop.  Remember your loss.  Feel the pain and heartache wash over you again, feel the wound as fresh and raw as the day it was dealt.  Now look carefully, and see if you do not find a tiny dagger of brass, no larger than a flea, embedded in your flesh.  That dagger is one of the Baatyr - they travel in swarms through Malfeas, flying through the air with a high pitched, thin whine that rises like a flood when they move as a flock.  To be pierced by a Baatyr is to have old and healed wounds torn open afresh.  Eventually even the strongest succumb if the Baatyr is not stopped- the constant reminders of pains and regrets drive them to seek madness or death as a simple relief from the agony.
'''Title''': Messenger, the Unmarried Captain<br>
 
'''Author''': FourWillowsWeeping
 
  
Badr Basim is the champion of brave bachelors.  He will lead an unmarried man to any thing that he desires, but by Basim's magic, that thing will be lost to him if he ever finds love.  Badr Basim appears as a young, dark-skinned man with pairs of crows' wings at his wrist and the golden eyes of a bird.  Sometimes, he takes the form of a wheeling flock of seabirds fighting over the corpse of a drowned man.  He feeds off the thwarted desires of those he deals with.

'''Author''': [[Han'ya]]  
'''Title''': Warden, the Metalsmith<br>
 
'''Author''': [[Nero's Boot]]
 
  
Born of fire and love and despair, Balseraph is the Metalsmith, the forger of Ghroth. He is a vast being, standing 12 feet tall, made of brimstone and magma, with hands as sharp as razors. He has no face, but his voice wells up from within him as if by means of echoes.  In the days when the gods still knew their proper place, Balseraph was the Metalsmith of Yu-Shan, and it is said that his skill knew no equal, save from the component souls of Autochthon the Great Maker. The Metalsmith can bleed forth metal of any kind, save that of Magical Materials, and can forge weapons with strange techniques and lores imbedded in them.  Once, Balseraph counted Autochthon as his most-loved mentor; now, the Metalsmith seeks only to see Autochton's blood course through the streets of Malfeas.
+
The bhefelsa are small, no more than four feet in height. Their skeleton is configured in such a way that hey walk perpetually stooped over. They garb themselves in robes woven of their own threadlike excretions. In form, they are something like a small child with slick skin the color of mummified skin, with foot-long tentacles extending over their rudimentary mouth-holes like a beard. These tentacles are coated with small hairs like those of the gecko's feet, allowing them a fantastic grip on absolutely any solid. They attend to the welfare of Txil Mahuatztli, carving his words into their flesh, informing the other souls of their lord's will, polishing his globe, removing broken or clouded tiles and tending the gaps with unguents derived from their blood. They are of little use to sorcerors, for they wail piteously and wither in despair when forced to leave the presence of One Revealing Amidst Black Towers.

This Chapter instructs the reader in the nature of demons and how they may be summoned and bound, and the many things which tempt, appease, and frighten them. In the Palace of the Crane, it appears as a man with a robe woven of sugar, with demon marionettes hanging upward from his gnarled hands.

'''Author''': [[Quendalon]]
 
  
Forever in motion, this black wind consumes all that it touches.  Rock crumbles to sand, plants turn to ash, and flesh dissolves into shadow.  Only bone endures, transmuted by the wind into rough black stone.  When in Creation, it carves out a steadily widening circle of sand and ash during the night; within that circle, fire and water sputter into smoke and mist, while the sun seems curiously dim.  Sun, fire and water wound the Breath outside of its circle; within, it fears only ice, red-hot metal and the Five Magical Materials.

'''Author''': [[Sindaen]]
  
'''Lineage''': [[Kimbery]] / Persine<br>
+
The Cervella appear as imposibly large, bestial women, standing over 12 feet tall with oily black skin adorned with red runes painted all over her body. Her eyes are sharp, deep green but blind and collars made from human bones and teeth hang from her body. The Cervella always carries a drum made from human skin with her and a drumstick made from the bones of a pelagic whale monster that has never truly died. The Cervellas exist only to play to the rhythm of the Silent Wind' heartbeat. Her music is powerful and primal and escorts Zsofika¥s Celebration, and creatures of bestial nature gather when they hear they play. If summoned, the Cervella can break the rhythm of anything, making the raindrops dance madly or disrupting the coming of spring. In their presence, all things, beast and men slowly fall to the embrace of their drumbeat, and time itself flows oddly, ebbing to the eternal beating of the heart of Adorjan.

A barely sentient demon, one that is the grass underfoot made malign.
+
When Mokol devoured the first creature to dare to attempt to steal from Perseine, his blood scattered throughout the seas.  Some of the blood was eaten by fish, and it transformed them into the Chittum.  Although the blood was not from Mokol, his touch had infested it with his jealousy.  However, the Chittum believe that blood is the most precious treasure, and seek to collect it for their own.  These creatures can often be found in the depths of Kimberry, following in Mokol's wake.  They are sometimes summoned to Creation when the blood of a treasure diver is spilled by a sea creature.

Whirlwinds of glittering dust, blowing from Ataranta-Etana when the wind scours her copper skin, the corosime desire only to dance. They are not fond of the city but are often seen twisting and spinning in the Endless Desert, sometimes accompanied in their dance by gilmyne and barra-kith, and are beautiful to see. Dancing with a corosima, wrapped around by its shining coils, a summoner can travel more swiftly than the fastest racehorse, but at the price of a skin left raw and bleeding from the abrasion of metal dust.

Each time The Storm Of Wrathful Winds changes direction, the lightning locusts that live within her intone one verse from The Omninous Chant Of Destruction. Their humming calls forth thunder, and is the mission of Csyvel to tame and herd this thunder riding his ivory dragon. Csyvel himself has the shape of a massive dreadful old man, wearing a cape of frost and with his pale but muscular body ornated with the thousand names of thunder, like an old northern king. He wears a white long cape that bites the skin on his back. He has a pair of useless bone wings that have been long eaten by the locusts, and he tames lightning with a mighty iron trident. Csyvel rides a big white ivory dragon called Rhozva, that looks more like an giant undead eel with insectoid claws and eyes. When summoned in Creation, Csyvel leaves his duty unattended, and the lightning-song of his mother causes great destruction in Malfeas. When Csyvel reaches Creation, his hair crisps and tingles with while lightning  and things of earth scowl at his presence. He is a mighty warrior and knows how to call forth storms, for their counterparts in creation were shaped after her mother. Csyvel has sometimes ride into the far reaches of Malfeas, sending Rhozva during Calibration to steal a mortal woman for him. For the entire Air Season she is raped by Csyvel and kept in Rhozva¥s womb. After the season of Earth has passed in Creation, the woman, now pregnant is devoured from the inside by a myriad of pale locusts, her name now belonging to Csyvel and the hunger of the locusts stops for one full month.

Astride her demonic mount, Djoria rides amidst the dreams of demons, lavishing fear and insecurity on all who dream of her. Despite her nature as a bringer of misery, Djoria truly loves all life, and longs for the day her duties will unnecessary. Because of this, she has great sympathy with the malfeans, and the cause of Oblivion. Recently, Djoria has taken to assuming form of a spectacularly beautiful Deathknight, with long white hair, a corpse-pale complexion and sad, violet eyes, clad in super heavy Soulsteel plate and riding a fire-breathing steed of black marble.

These clouds of powdery ash drift about of their own accord, as if on an unseen wind; their ardor varies with the light, such that they settle into dormancy in dark places.  They absorb all forms of energy and take it into themselves, so as to glow red with heat, blue with lightning, or green with Ligierís light. When so charged, an Ember-Born may set things afire and feed upon the smoke, taking the burnt thing into itself. On occasion, they feed on life or matter, leaving behind a warm corpse or a wisp of ash, but they prefer to devour ideas, perceptions, memories and dreams, stripping these things away from those they engulf.

There is an old man in musty brown robes who walks the edges of The Fields of Rot And Sorrow, looting the corpses of the dead and dropping their belongings into the sack he keeps at his waist. In his right hand is a scale that he clutches tightly to at all times. As he walks, he eventually crosses paths with his sister, Melisandra. At those times when her charms will not sway one to enter battle, Drel-Ud smiles a smile of razors as he opens the pouch at his side. The scale in his right hand knows the cost of his victim's soul and how much coin it will take for them to enter the fray. When their price is paid, they rush into battle to slaughter and be slaughtered... and Drel-Ud gives his sister a smile and begins to walk once more, collecting his fee from the dead.
+
The emputhanei are Kebrael's twisted attempt at beauty of form. Like the geshuggin, they feel no fear, but love, hatred, and pain are by no means alien sensations. They take the form of red-haired, early adolescent female human children, with their arms replaced by snowy white wings. The upper halves of their faces are concealed by iron masks, and their eyes burn with hellfire. Their mouths are filled with delicate fangs, and they cannot speak except in birdlike caws and croaks. Their feet are tipped in long obsidian talons, and they can heal from wounds supernaturally fast. They are unquestioningly loyal to their lord, and will obey any of his dictates. The song they sing when given any quantity of gold is heartbreakingly sweet and otherworldly, but it pales in comparison to the songs they can produce when fed pure orichalcum. The melodies produced are otherworldly in their beauty, filled with aeons of pain and sorrow and longing to be free. The terrible sadness and awesome madness contained therein has been known to break the hardest hearts and shatter the strongest minds. They cannot abide the gleam of steel or the sound of glass breaking, and can be called into the mortal realm by the wails of a newly orphaned child.

The Thief of Flesh is the prince of the twisted crows that dwell within The Fields borders.  He can see through the eyes of each of his subjects and may speak through their beaks.  There is a friendship of sorts between himself and Sil Urxan for he is the one who suggested to his father Adrigor to give Sil Urxan the feet of a crow when Adrigor devoured Sil Urxan's feet to create Durgenil.  In return, the crows of Durgenil favor the corpse bloom of Sil Urxan more than the taste of any of dead.  While this binds the two closer than Adrigor would like, it still breeds a hatred in Sil Urxan that one of a lower rank should be allowed to feast upon him.  He is called upon to act as a spy within Creation, fearing only the blind, who are granted his sight in their own dead eyes as he passes near.

'''Title''': The Clock Without Numbers Or Hands, Warding Soul of Temozarael<br>
 
'''Author''': [[Han'ya]]
 
  
Atop Temozarael's citadel (which is really an extension of Temozarela's form) there is a great clock, with no numbers and no hands. The great clockwork mechanisms hidden behind its milky white face tick away, inscrutable in their purpose. Occasionally, the mechanism will erupt outwards and go hunting, a great clockwork beast carved of bone and black Malfean iron, crackling with acidic green light. Emicrade, the most inscrutable of all of Tharalstrazix's souls, lurks within his burrow atop his lord Temozarael, biding his measureless time until he can escape and bring all continuity into unison and destroy the blasphemy of separated time. Emicrade is a being of unmeasured time, whether the measurements are simply ignored, infinite, or unknown. His mind (if it can be called that) functions without solid time, and as such does not change. To Emicrade, all summonings are as one summoning, all wounds as one wound, all hunts as one hunt, all meals as one meal, all facts as one fact, all mysteries as one mystery. Emicrade lives his boredom as an eternity and an instant at once, and revels in the white-hot infinity collapsed into a second that is victory and slaughter. He appears as a great beast, something like a cat, or perhaps some terrible lizard, at times like a boar, or some great worm or slug, or all of these at once. His every whirring component is soaked in a lubricant that causes all who touch it to erupt in hideous tumors. Every cog and gear, every whirring wheel, is razor-sharp and fiercely strong. Eyes it has wherever the acidic lightning that is its life-energy shows through its mechanical shell. These gateways to madness are its only weak point. They can open and close in a heartbeat, so it is useless to strike at them. Great chunks of the living mechanism must be torn away to open holes large enough to score blows. The ticking of clocks and the ringing of bronze bells is agony to Emicrade, and he cannot enter a domicile at noon if the inhabitants know it is noon.

Esprevere has a passion for lifeShe is tall and slim, gleaming with oily scales of orange and yellow, and great dragonís wings unfold from her shouldersWherever she passes, strange life burgeons: unearthly seedlings and shoots rise from the earth, while the existing greenery swells and blossoms with unknown flowers and fruitPregnant mortals and animals that fall under her shadow give birth instantly, sometimes to perfectly formed children, at other times to bizarre prodigies and abominations.  Though Esprevere normally leaves such things to whim and chance, she can choose the form such new life takes, and sorcerers often call her for this purpose.

These swirling ribbons of reddish-black fog coalesce into manlike shapes with long, delicate fingers and scarlet eyesThey fashion the metal and stone of the demon realm into cunning forms, constructing blades and tools, talismans and ornaments, always working a measure of their own substance into their creationsFor all of their skillful craftsmanship, such devices bear the curse of the ferimur, bringing dark moods and ill fortune to those that bear themEventually a ferimur invests the last of itself in an item, and ceases to be; but when one of its creations is used to kill, a new ferimur rises from the blood shed thereby.

There are many who speak out against their masters, and many who seek wisdom forbidden to them. But for these indiscretions against the ultimate hierarchy there is a price to be paid, that price is pain.
 
  
Demons know that this pain is called Evangeline.

There are times, even under the green sun of Ligier, where pure white light pierces Kassat, and in the space of a few seconds, she births through her mouth a caterpillar the size of a dog.  With its creation, Kassat chooses a thing that it admires, and at the next calibration, it metamorphoses to resemble this:  a sword, a man or woman, a tree or other demon.  The Fillax has nothing but adulation for that which it resembles, and will seek it out in Creation, if it has the chance, and can be told apart from its original only by the prismatically-hued wings it sports that can carry it anywhere.  However, if its perfect image of the original is cracked, if the original changes in any way from how it was at the Fillax's creation, if it is scarred, if it learns or changes its mind, love withers and turns to hate, and the Wondrous Butterfly will do its utmost to destroy the original, even though it, too, will die in the process.

Freygda appears as a human figure whose hands and feet are both swapped, left and right, and whose bald head is wholly circumnavigated by a row of empty eye sockets. She sees through other's eyes, and can know other's thoughts. Freygda's skin is full of pocks, and she bears a barbed spear suitable for fishing, with which she tears out the entrails of her foes. She wanders blind and alone through Aramedisae's hallways, for she knows them well and she guards them from those who are not meant to be within them.
+
Balseraph is a maker and a builder, for such was taught him by Autochthon in days of yore and legend.  But not all things he makes are intentional, and not all are loved or cherished. Of all the creatures that dwell in Creation, only cicadas dwell also in Malfeas. Mad in cacophany of noise, Malfean cicadas are drawn to the Metalsmith, for they sense he can make more of them.  As Balseraph works his forge, sparks fall onto the ground, and the cicadas eat them, becoming Forge Daughters, a fusion of beautiful human woman and insect. Like their father, who hates them, Forge Daughters are makers and builders; but from their father's hate comes imperfection, and nothing the demon-cicadas make will endure past one night.  This drives the Forge Daughters to urgency and despair, which the Metalsmith revels in.

The never born children that Ratex Il steals away from her victims are not committed to the realm of the dead.  No, not at all.  Instead, they fester and bubble in the clotting womb of Ratex Il and are born the G'Brogassmir.  The children of Ratex Il are born with all the splendor of their sires.  They beam the radiance of a hero, their strength and beauty the things of legend in the realm of Creation.  And yet, once one begins to look more closely, their feet are cloven hooves and they hide mule ears beneath their flowing hair.  Like her father, Ratex Il too is incapable of former glories and all the G'Brogassmir are sterile mules who blazing glory fades the longer they are exposed to air.  They regain their beauty by bathing in their mother or in a foe's blood, and so are frequently challenged any who will listen to a duel for fear of growing powerless.

An alternative to the more involved version of this book of evil spelled out by FourWillowsWeeping in the [[Oramus]] entry, these demons are twisted and corrupt shadows of their creator, embodied in books. What's more, they know they are flawed, that their only hope of being made whole is to bring a reader, the more powerful the better, home. They lack mobility and voice, but when their knowledge is inevitably accessed, most will introduce their reader to Gruidtsuru, one way or another. Others hate themselves and their maker, and will connect to another demon out of spite. Still others have been usurped and converted to serve other masters.

All knowledge changes as it is recorded, oftentimes lessening its truths, occasionally becoming something new and profound; so too does the smoke from burning books reveal new insights to Gobasi.  Appearing as a suave sophisticate of the South, his finery reeks of smoke, and an indispersible haze chases him to wherever he may seat himself.  Ever-intoxicated by the fumes of lost knowledge that bubble through his hookah, he can be tricked into revealing immeasurably valuable lore in his efforts to prove his sagacity.

Many souls have been lost in fascination with the patterns produced by the writhing storm of jet-black ink and feathers that forms Gruidtsuru. It ''knows'' something, maybe everything, but for most of Creation its compelling, swirling blackness hold only madness and a concealed shrieking vortex leading to Malfeas. Its children are the only path it offers to its knowledge, cast out into Creation like birds thrown from their nest, and never welcome home without suitable offerings.
+
The geshuggin are almost physically identical to humans at surface inspection. They are completely uniform in body and mind, no two any different. Even the weapons they bear are borne by sheer coincidence and their lord's fancy. Any identifying markings are not removed, but are ignored nonetheless. All are exactly seven feet tall, inhumanly brawny, and wrapped in strips of white material like a cross between paper, kidskin, and silk. This material is often stained with their black blood, and serves as bandages for the many wounds they suffer. Geshuggin do not feel pain, do not have any discernible emotions, and do not seem to forget. They have a sense of smell like a wolf's, never tire, do not breath, and cannot speak. Their faces are concealed by smooth white porcelain masks that cannot be shattered by even the mightiest blows from mortal weapons. They will continue to fight even if their ribcages are ripped open, and will not suffer being restrained, doing whatever they must to be free, even tearing their own forearms and shins off when crucified, the one thing they fear above all. They usually fight in groups, but do not use group tactics. They are simply a mass of individuals with a common purpose. They take no orders, not even if magically compelled, unless they are commanded by a servant of Tharalstrazix, human, demon, or Infernal.

The flesh consumed by Sil Urxan speaks of many persons involved with the slaughter that is Valxregen.  The one most find themselves familiar with is Hrulik, The Severing Sickness.  He rides a horse of bone and flame as he stalks the battlefield, a long, golden blade brandished high.  Hrulik is clad in leper's rags and from beneath them weeps streams of infection and pus.  He is the dishonor that claims those who live through the battle, the one who comes for those who were too weak to find a glorious death.  His blade severs their will to live from their soul and leaves them a fragile husk, gagging evermore on their own cowardice.

To look upon Inchoal is to see one's own firstborn staring back, their eyes full of hurt.  It is to see them a twisted mockery of the human form, a vision so painful to regard that it sears itself into onlooker's minds for a year and a day.  Perverting any true image of that child they might behold, the torment of such a sight pulls tears of blood from their eyes, and filled with loathing, they are driven only by a burning need to destroy the abomination they have spawned.  Such is the power of this madness that even the childless are not spared it, though at least they endanger nothing more than their sanity and Inchoal himself.

Issa is beautiful, for she is the first beautiful womanShe is the joy of physicality, the joy of carnality, and the pleasure of beautiful things.  Perfect in body and visage, Issa is a thoughtless thing, indulging in her own desires as she wills.  Still she is an artist, and many would slay their heart's love for the ownership of her worksMany lust for her in the Demon Realm, but she will have no lover, save that of a Solar she served in the Old Realm.  Endlessly she waits for his rebirth, for she lusts for him, and will make him her slave, lest she herself wither away from despair.
+
The Hulg are those unfortunates who plunge within Prex Il's depths to reach their foes, only to be gutted by her waters.  The eyeless skins that emerge afterwards appear as they did in life barring their now blood-red eyesIn silence, they take pick or shovel or claws to the banks of Prex Il, ever widening their mother's banks.  They are called upon by those seeking treasures on riverbeds or those wishing to speed up the creation of irrigation systemsTheir work is often flawed however, unless the summoner pays close attention, for the original soul is never fully suppressed and will hide flaws in their until their duty has been completed.

The husermus are the flowing atmosphere of Txil Mahuatztli's chamber. The fact is that the great white orb is not in fact awake, but rather dreaming. He is occupied with looking into the soul of Jarlastran, and does this by dreams, which (a school of thought holds) are the mind sorting itself out and cross-referencing information. The truest picture of one can be gained from their dreams, so Txil Mahuatztli dreams and speaks in his sleep. The bhefelsa record his words, and the husermus absorb them, the light and the words in the light accruing in them. The husermus can be summoned and commanded to disgorge the contents of their minds. Their spiritual metabolism converts the light into sounds and images comprehensible to other creatures, if only with some difficulty. A glimpse into the mind and memory of a Third Circle demon can be a powerful thing. Great secrets and great insights could be gained. Great horror and madness as well.

Once she was summoned by the wise, to learn quickly what no one else had ever thought to ask- now, she is a shell of her former self, and wanders the desert of Cecelyne, remembering only that she must remember what she has forgotten- for someone knows how the Yozis may escape, for she knows not how to break her own chains.

They rub their tiny legs together and produce heroic fanfares, sorrowful violin strings, and even the roaring crash of battle. That music enhances dramatic feats and people, spurs the drama in motion, and even at times warns its allies of misfortune before it strikes.

The Jwan are farmers and peasants, scratching out a living against Malfeas' pulpy soil and blood rich riversThey can be found almost everywhere, scurrying like the ants they resemble- each covered in a black resin shell, clacking mandibles and claws of bone tearing the ground apartAlthough their crops are bountiful, few off the demons have not grown sick of the fruit rich with the Yozi's essence or grain bowed heavily with his hairThe Jwan themselves claim to seek the Life-In-Death, the fruit that brings even the dead back to life; to what purpose, they will not say.

When it is Calibration, all of Euskarra's hands fall from him or herself, and the tiny bits of foil build up until the dawn of the first day of the CalendarAt this point, Euskarra pulls himself free and leaves behind a cast of himself, and this cast becomes the KalevalaThe body, massive and multicolored from so many metals, is silent as the grave, and does as it is told by either Euskarra, or whoever has summoned it.  It is a little-known secret that the Kalevala's birthing wound never truly heals, and it may open this to hold its summoner inside itself, and be controlled from such a position as if it were a warstrider of no little strength.

Rarely seen in his true form, a stylized human face painted onto a simple noh mask, Kambos exists as a flesh-eater. He consumes the bodies of humans and demons alike, processing them into his own form, a congealed mass of brownish ooze that he can form into any shape that suits him. Most often the ooze appears in the rougly humanoid form of a hooded and cloaked savant. The flesh-ooze of Kambos quickly disintegrates, forcing the flesh eater to devour victims at a rapacious rate.
+
Each puff of smoke enjoyed and expelled by Gobasi joins the indispersible haze about him; where the fumes of three lost texts are commingled, the air takes on an oily iridescence. This is the birthing of the Kayabi, whose indistinct forms exist to distinguish others.  To look upon three Kayabi dancing is to see the invisible within them; seven, an echo of what has passed from the world; thirteen, the foreshadowing of what may be.  Yet within each glimmering revelation is three more, and a truth hides in all and none of them.

Kassat wears robes (and is composed of) of shimmering glass, prismatic and bright. Underneath these, she holds treasures the like of which the world may never know. The folds of her garb part from time to time, and what it reveals is never human beneath, but a collection of oddities and wonders the likes of which even the Wyld might find far-fetched and amazing. Sometimes, little trinkets fall free from her body, and she does not notice this unless called to her attention. What falls may be as unimportant as a sphere that emits a gentle glow, and does not move from where it is placed, even if that place should be in midair, or a first-age weapon of unfathomable potential. Kassat deals only in unique items: that which she has already will not interest her, unless its possession makes her own more valuable.

The Kerumath is unassuming, a grey bird the size of a sparrow that flits from branch to branch and shakes itself fussily.  It has a fondness for birdbaths.  Like many demons of the first circle, though, this creature is intelligent, very much so.  As long as one listens to it, they shall prosper in their endeavors. Business shall be brisk and profitable, skirmishes will fall in their direction.  Unfortunately, while their chosen one proceeds to gain profits, every good thing that comes is counterbalanced by a misfortune that strikes a loved one.  Jade and silver pours into his own coffers, and those around him become sickly, destitute, and die, until all that is left is a mighty lord standing alone, and the Kerumath leaves the man to his fate.

In his home, Khsiret is the inspiration for the Lightning Spider magic: a many-legged, lacy shape of shadow, in whose centre burns a many-coloured flame. In the winding halls of his Manse, he weaves deep magics. Summoned into the world, he appears as a shadow puppet of dark wood, carrying a chalice filled with flames.  One who drinks from the chalice is filled with energy, and if he can contain it, it will bring him great might.

The longrenhimm keep to the shadows of Malfeas, for their kind have an emnity with Ligier and his offspring whose root cause is not spoken of. They are over six feet in height, and resemble men only in the vaguest sense possible. What they really call to mind is a gigantic ostrich with chainsaws for skin. Long-necked, with hooked steel beaks and thousands of tiny blades on chains that never stop writhing and clicking along covering their metal skeletons and crackling green life-force, they are heralded by a clicking noise like knucklebones on a tiled floor when they are calm, and a fearsome shrieking when angered or fearful. They love the scent of fear, and as such are given to tormenting and toying with their prey before moving in for the kill, inevitably near a very public place, into which they will usually toss the corpse after savaging it and feeding. They can be enticed into service by the promise of fear and savage violence. As creatures which inspire fear, they are fearful themselves, even cowardly. If one is demonstrably more powerful than a longrenhimm, the creature will not disobey or attack them unless ordered to do so by either their summoner, a more powerful demon, or someone yet more powerful than the person in question, or unless they think they can get away with it.

When Creation was young, the Primordials exercised their creativity and populated it with life to amuse themselves. Kubriya was considered a bit obsessed even by his compatriots. He loved nothing more than to shape, and reshape, and at last render shapeless, that which lives and bears flesh. His hordes of creations were traumatic to look upon, and deadly to fight, in the Primordial War. Since his exile to Malfeas, he has turned his creative fury to breeding warriors to win his lord's freedom. These mad half-alive creatures are like something out of a nightmare, but there is a certain purity and power in their patchwork forms. Kubriya's creations represent the epitome of natural selection and purity of form and mind, if they can truly be said to have minds. They live for their lord's pleasure, and cannot be readily commanded by any but him, being devoid of ears. This, along with inhuman toughness, allows them to survive as they roam the desert of Cecelyne, unharmed by the heat of Ligier, the dryness of Cecelyne, or the scouring ravages of Adorjan. They are most at home in the desert, and will gladly wander there for days on end. Kubriya himself has little interest in shaping his own form, being both somewhat lazy and titanically arrogant. His form doesn't need much work in any case. When summoned, he assumes the form of a brawny, hairy man with huge, bloodstained wings, curved ebon claws, and blank white eyes, yet a strangely elegant face. His voice can sway the weak-minded, and he is skilled beyond mortal comprehension in the arts of surgery. Blood is his preferred beverage, and he finds its taste sweet beyond measure. He will erupt into berserk rage if he is to see anything he perceives as beautiful damaged in any way. The defilement of beauty is one of the greatest sins in his mind.
+
Primitive men of verdigris sprung from the passing of Esprevere through Hrotsvitha, the Marcule's will is to strive against their surroundings. Within every moment, the world strikes flakes of tainted metal from them, and between every moment they find a new path down which to grow in their struggles. The touch of their tarnished flesh is agony upon mortal skin, as it strives against their fragile nature; few survive, but those few are remade ever stronger until the spark of mortality is driven from their brazen flesh, and they join the ranks of the Marcule.

Resembling a bleached, too-tall corpse in gray and gold, bearing a massive codex bound in human skin, Liellus travels through all the layers of Malfeas to visit the glass libraries laid down by OrabilisIn each library, he traces his circuit among the shelves and stacksHe does not read the books nor study the lore that Orabilis has set down for the edification of the demon scholarsInstead, he records the title of each and every scholarly work in his codex, preparing a comprehensive index of the lore of the demon realm.

When the Primordial War first began, Ligier sought some means of fighting against the ExaltedHe is not Autocthon, and could never create Exalted Shards; but he did unleash the Massassi, crafted of the Hollow Knight's own flesh, blood and boneThe Massassi themselves have no more substance than a shadow; however, they are adept at taking control of a human hostSome cultists summon them and willingly allow themselves to be driven by the Massassi, vicariously triumphing through its strength; some Exalts use them as spies without compare.

There is a place in which all the demons live. Fools call it Hell and Exalts call it Malfeas and the wise speak of it not at all.  Within it, there is a place where all the demons liveThe Demons call it Loreli, and behold it in wonder- a table of oak and brass and bone, as wide as a city block and held in a dome of salt and ash that is said to be the memory of the Pleasure Dome where once the True Rulers took their leisure.  Inside is a sight to drive any mortal to madness: it is Malfeas, laid out in perfect detailEvery demon of Malfeas can be seen, save those that cannot, and Loreli at all times knows where anyone of Malfeas is, should anyone but askLooking at Loreli, it seems as though the model grows larger, or you grow smaller, as though you are falling to the great table to those who you look upon.  Loreli watches himself, as is only just, a small child with red skin and blue eyes and golden hair, dressed in cloth of silver and tied to the table with strings of brass.  Though you may try, you will not cut these strings - Loreli fled once, and Kimbery punished the wayward soul well.

There is something else that Trespan is known for making: just as he tears his own eyes from his face to bring himself into sanity, the last wordless hiss that emerges from his throat as he descends into madness also takes form as one of his offspringA Merodu manifests as a crimson tangle of thread that moves by extending part of itself from the tangle, only to form a new knot several yards awayOne can be cajoled into untangling itself, and may even allow itself to be woven into some article of clothing, a shirt or cloakThere, it will mutter to itself and its wearer, telling lies and half-truths that they both wish to believe.

The nemmu are less prolific than some demons, but not rare by any means. They are roughly 2 feet in height, and are docile and largely harmless. In appearance, they are potbellied imps with stumpy limbs, small mouths and ears, and a single large eye that is nearly 6 inches in height, and almost 8 inches wide. Their one extraordinary gift is hidden in this gargantuan organ. When a nemmu turns its blank gaze on an object, it can instantly draw that object into a small pocket universe free of ordered time. A flower can slumber within and emerge fresh as the day it was picked. A piece of toast can be sucked within, and emerge cold but not stale. The timelessness is not logical, and so it is unwise to hide living things within the nemmu, for they will experience every instant of the time missed, and possibly much more, but without any of the physical side effects. The nemmu absorb objects apparently at random if given free will, and are often used as handy storage devices by their summoners. They are calm and placid, or appear so at least, and their willing service can be secured by an offering of a squash or a broken hourglass.

The most lovely of those of Sil Urxan, Melisandra is a beautiful porcelain doll draped in dresses of purest white, beaming upon you with her soft eyes.  Her ebony hair perches atop her head softly, admiring you from above.  She speaks to you in comforting tones as you walk through the charnel house around you and reminds you of its necessity if you are to lay claim to her.  Only those watching her speak from afar see her true self as each one of her four faces spins to speak to another possible suitor.  Her eyes glow the colors of the four elemental poles as her pale faces speak the language of whomever they seek.  Sorcerers summon her to translate unknown texts and teach them languages lost to Creation.  These translations are never perfect, always purposefully corrupting a crucial phrase that will enrage those being poken to or leaving out a critical passage in an engineering diagram.

All men and women have secrets. Desires wear away self-control, and one's holding back slowly gives way, and a dam-burst of vice is the result. Mellamy will listen to you. Mellamy will absolve your sins. She smiles, takes your hand, and for one last night, those whom she blesses indulge themselves with her as they see fit, be it in gambling, drink, drugs, sex, or violence, until they pass out from exhaustion. When the sun rises again on them, their sins seem distant and far away, and the concept of indulging again, just a little, is foreign to them, though new vices will always spring up to take their place. Mellamy appears as a lovely, tempting young woman with ruddy hair and grey eyes, dressed in argent sheets and veils that never truly reveal, but hint at what must lay beneath. She may take other forms, though this is her favorite.  No matter what shape she wears, she may be picked out by her necklace of clam-shells.

Euskarra has been summoned more than once, and she sheds her skin even in creation. And more than one summoner has sold those precious metals to a jewler, or been on themselves, and made rings and necklaces and pretty baubles. These things are cursed, though, and Euskarra may reach through Creation to pull those people who bear such an item back through to Malfeas, where she works dark magics into them and forges their body anew.  An Ogham has the same face it did in its mortal existence, but its teeth are lengthened into sharp and silvery fangs.  Its torso remains humanoid, though chitinous at the same time, and insectile arms run up and down its length; below the waist, the body becomes completely centipede, though appropriately massive and with streaks of whatever precious metal damned the human.  They serve whatever ineffable will their father does, though they can explain it no better.

This Book tells of the death of Adri&aacute;n's fetich soul and her subsequent change into Adorjan, and other sufferings of the Primordials as they fought the Exalted for dominion. To read it is to understand the pain of having one's soul die, and yet to survive. It is the knowledge in this book alone that triggers the change, for the worthy, into Exalts of the Yozis. All the others but prepare the reader for the darkness to come.  The Memory of Transformation appears as a figure robed in burgundy silk; only its six hands can be seen inside, spindly and pale as marble.  They each hold aloft a broken crystal sphere.

The Ophanae are talkative flowers that only grow in the gardens of the Intricate Paradise. They look like giant viper¥s bugloss flowers, large as a wolf¥s head with spiked petals of crimson and coral with lascive, whip like tonges. They know many languages, including those of the insects and plants, and can teach them to those who place a drop of blood from their lips in the flower¥s petals. They have a deep feminine voice, and their perfume is venomous to all those who have never found true love. Sages speculate that the Ophanae can slow but surely fascinate lonely men or women with this scent, inducing them into suicide. The blood and flesh of those who sucumb to the Mephitic Blossom¥s beckon are used to make soil fertile so new Ophanae may blossom. The Ophanas dry-rot in the light of The Unconquered Sun, but may bloom in argent colors with the caress of Luna¥s light reflecting on a polished brass mirror.

The demon Merach holds a talent unique among the Malfean incubi.  In the throes of passion, he may draw forth a loverís destiny in the shape of a star.  Some destinies he confers upon other lovers; some he keeps in crystal phials, to give to other demons or to store on the high shelves of his drifting copper palace; the rest he swallows, so that their purpose and meaning are forever lost. His mortal forms are many and varied, of every possible permutation of race and gender, and in each he is infinitely desirable.  Those well versed in the lore of Malfeas can recognize him by the ever-shifting mark on his forehead which he conceals beneath his hair.  It is said that he once loved a maiden of the Lunar Exalted, whose destiny he stole at the Yozisí behest, and that though she will not have him, he pines for her still.

Many great works have been sacrificed to Persine over the Ages. Many more have been sacrificed unknowningly, lost at sea.  Persine cannot watch over all of these treasures in either Malfeas or Creation.  Thus it created Mokol to catalog and guard its treasures.  Mokol haunts the lightless depths of Kimberry, passing back and forth in a route to eternally defend the lost from those that would find them.  Mokol is an incredibly jealous soul, that which he touches he considers his forever, and those that would seek them are unworthy to even behold what is his.  He knows the moment one touches any of the treasures which he guards, and may bring himself to any such location.  Although ever vigilant, Mokol is not without reason.  If faced with overwhelming odds he will flee to another sunken location, and plot his revenge.  He appears as a great siaka with a number of surprisingly gentle tentacles growing from his body.  Mokol seeks to caress the precious treasures he guards, for their touch comforts him.  Sorcerers may summon Mokol to guard any undersea location.  However, Mokol greatly resents imprisonment as he cannot exist simutaneously in Malfeas and Creation as those above him in station.

Nedian's true shape is that of Erembour's true shadow-- when he is off on his own, either by some private whim or by sorcerous command, Erembour is left to effortlessly craft a more mundane shadow for herself. If Nedian were to be destroyed, Erembour would temporarily be without a real shadow and would lose her command over the creatures of the night (and, in Malfeas, the monsters that lurk in the Ebon Dragon's Shadow) until she regenerated him. This takes a lunar month in Creation, a week in Malfeas, and a single night if she can summon Aluveia to her side and set her to the task of remaking Nedian. Nedian can take the shape of any of the creatures of the night, but is more often a formless, shifting shadow. He has no human shape, as his was the love of the dark beyond human settlements, from whence spring the things that haunt men in the darkness. The creatures of the underways beneath the world do homage to him, for his darkness is that of things beyond the influence of both men and gods.

Seeds of doubt lurk in all minds, for a mind without possibility for change is not a mind. Netraphim is the flaw in the armour of contempt, the lurking doubt at the back of Temozarael's mind. If Temozarael is purity of desire and purpose, Netraphim is weakness, loss of conviction, and the death of faith. Her aspect is that of a cloaked woman, with skin the color of snow at night and an inhuman strength. Her voice can undermine the most strongly held convictions and shatter the faith of gods in themselves, causing them to dissolve back into ambient Essence.

The peledora are ephemeral, wispy beings. They take the form of clouds of purple ribbons that can only be seen during an eclipse, or in the light of the anima of the Eclipse caste. Their great power is to whisper truth directly into the mind of the unwary, not even themselves knowing from whence it came. The truths told will always strike at the conviction and dedication to their cause of the listener. They remain permanently dematerialized, and can only interact with our world through sound. The can be called by secrets being whispered to oneself under a full moon or in a dark, windowless room.

Niremar shatters every mirror or pane of glass, dirtying clear still pond. His mere presence blackens polished steel and causes silver and gold to tarnish. Niremar appears tall, made of shadows, clad in an armor of iron that ends in arrows of burning-hot flame, his great night mane framed by iron horns. Niremar is shadow and fear, and the burning mares of Malfeas that embody every fear of Creation answer to him and only to him.

Embodying the Demon Starís relationship with the sailors upon the Malfean Ocean, Nypion lends his strength to those who bind him or earn his favor. In his natural state Nypion appears as a hollow demon, nearly nine feet tall and with huge bulging muscles, oddly counter pointing his hollow center. Nypion roams both above and below the waters of Kimbery and knows of all things that move upon the lightless sea and within it. Mortals of the west that truly worship the Yozis and work for their return can sometimes receive Nypionís favor: when called by the proper rituals Nypion can slip into Creation and join himself to a worshiper, lending him his terrible Demonic power for a single worthy task.  Far more often Nypion is summoned and bound by a Celestial Exalted Sorcerer who desires his strength in combat, and forces the same union upon him.  Nypion is not fond of these forced unions, though he is less tenacious in his grudges than some demons, and will generally not actively seek the sorcerer's destruction unless an oportunity presents itself.  If a sorcerer attempts to bind Nypion and fails he will invariably try to possess the sorcerer and Hollow out his Soul, using his body as a vessel to spread the aims of Kimbery in Creation before throwing him off a cliff into the ocean.

In the void between Oramus' wings, Oshymitus is a thin web of capillaries and blood vessels covered with eyes, forming a vast constellation in the emptiness.  When summoned into Creation, Oshymitus coils up into itself, forming a ball of pulsating veins and shifting eyes roughly six feet in diameter, which bobs in the air when materialized.  Oshymitus is always watching, extending his capillary-eyes far away and through tiny cracks to view activities unseen.  This demon is typically summoned to protect the paranoid, as a spy and interrogator bound to root out conspiracies and uncover hidden dangers.

Creatures like sea urchins that act as wombs, creating terrible hybrid things in the demon city.

To summon Oskilla, one must take the live egg of a bird. Any species of bird works, though certain First Age texts suggest the egg of a dove. The egg must be near hatching, though uncracked, and is placed within the summoning circle as the ritual begins. This egg and the new life it contains are annihilated in the summoning, and become the host for the massive, quasi-reptilian monstrosity that emerges, both strong of arm and quick of wit, and is oftened summoned for the visions he may induce.

The shadowy, hulking figure that is a Relkast is the stuff of nightmares. Its breath stinks of rot, and in its massive jaws one can see the remains of those who stood against it before. Its three-dozen eyes scan before it,and it hunts with predatory ease. Yet it seems that its crafter planned greatly upon its ability to intimidate;  this terrible visage exists only in front, and if one should get a clear view of its back, they will see the little heart of the Relkast, a diminuitive, spidery puppeteer, soft and unarmored.

Those walls that Sossurl builds lead many to war, and there are times where two who hate each other by dint of those walls will slay each other.  When they do, their higher and lower souls are pulled to the wall, and there are steeped in demonic magic until the next new moon, where at midnight from the rock crawls forth this thing, with four howling visages that leer like gargoyles.  It knows no purpose but hate, and attacks all it can see, stopping only to open itself up to inter the bodies of the fallen.

Of Tulchinary's three tributary daughters, Prex Il is the most ambitious.  Coursing through The Fields from the delta where her father ends and she begins, Prex Il is ever-seeking to widen her banks.  Unlike most of The Fields inhabitants, she courses through Malfeas, seeking out those demons lower than herself or those unknowing her true nature.  Her tumultuous bloody waters roil and bubble, lashing against the shore, calling to those near her of their neighbors treacheries.  As those at her banks wade across her expanse to face those on the other side, Prex Il pulls them under and consumes them, leaving only a husk behind.  These husks rise from her depths and dig along her borders to expand her reach ever further.

These slender androgynes offer solace to all who desire it, their night-dark eyes bewitching any who meet their gaze.  Their breath sharpens the mind but dulls the senses, eventually leaving their lovers helplessly deaf and blind.  Contrariwise, the blood, sweat, flesh and tears of the Shadha all sharpen the senses while dulling the mind; such demons as would slay and feed upon them become mindless ravening beasts that haunt the darkened places of Malfeas.

Once Tulchinary was the river that quenched thirst of the victorious.  Now, it's daughter Ratex Il, has grown to despise those that once drank from her father's waters.  Ratex Il watches the battles that rage across The Fields of Rot and Sorrow with sadistic glee, waiting for the victors to come and wash themselves in her bloody waters.  As they touch her surface, she begins to siphon their strength, their will, and all the children they may have ever had.  Those Ratex Il touches are evermore sterile and no amount of sorcery can return their ability to parent a child.  This is the vengeance of Ratex Il; impotence, just as her grandsire was rendered impotent by his imprisonment in Malfeas.

Roiye is perhaps one of the most dangerous demon of his kind to the mighty. It is given to him that the more powerful and divine a heavenly creature is, the less visible he becomes in its eyes. He exists more thoroughly outside the watch of Fate than most other demons, such that those creatures who are bound to heaven and its service find it more difficult to percieve him, and his actions are completely unpredictable by astrology.  He can also extend his touch to others, shielding them from the watch of Heaven for a time.

The shallaboth take the form of ordinary moths, unremarkable in every way except for their being the size of chihuahuas with 3-foot wingspans. They are not much use individually, but their abilities are exponentially multiplied when in groups. The unique ability of the shallaboth is their uncanny sense for misfortune or ill events. The shallaboth feed off of sunlight, and unlike most moths are diurnal. They have been known to slip through the barriers around Malfeas and hitchhike on the summonings of other demons.

Darkness compels not because it is dangerous, but because it holds secrets -- forbidden knowledge, hidden feelings and concealed lusts. Ronwe embodies these secrets and lives to teach any willing to shun the light for them. Known for skilled instruction in the art of love, Ronwe's presence fills those nearby with a lust they long to hide until it may be slaked in the comfort of darkness. Calling Ronwe from full shadow, craftier summoners know that much more than carnal knowledge may be gleaned from the darkness. In the light, Ronwe conceals its true face with the appearance of the physical type the viewer most desires, but in darkness it is comfortably shapeless, forming whatever limb or orifice is needed for the lesson at hand.

A chartreuse glow spills from these bizarre living wounds.  A shilkani has no body, no flesh; it is merely a gap, an interstice, which glides across solid surfaces like a butterflyís shadow, shrinking to a greenish line no longer than a finger or gaping wide as an archway or oubliette.  A shilkani lives to feed.  Its gullet rests Elsewhere; that which it consumes vanishes from the world.  Piercing a shilkaniís gullet with an artifact weapon slays it instantly, violently expelling its current meal; its master may also compel it to refrain from digesting a creature or thing, storing it unharmed for a day and a night.  By dimming its fires, a shilkani may open a portal through the surface upon which it rests, forming a doorway through wood or stone ñ or a gushing wound in living flesh.  Three things these demons cannot abide: the dances of the gilmyne, the smoke from burning thorns, and the sound of golden bells; any of these things will drive one away.

As Makarios travels west of the Between-Worlds Tower, the Lake of Coins rotates around it in reflection of his movement, winding or unwinding the landscape in anticipation of his return. So it is with all the souls of the Yozis; their movements reshape their prison in direct or indirect ways. There are places in the demon realm that even disappear when their Second Circle wardens are summoned and bound. The naked youth, Scevola, understands the changes of the cage, and by gazing upon the landscape through the vision of a blue-eyed mortal, he can determine the whereabouts of any demon who is currently present in Malfeas.

These are also Scevla's weapons, and if need be the glass will extend to protect vulnerable parts of the youth's body.

Ronwe doesn't only teach the living, but the dead cannot handle such lessons and remain intact. Seducing ghosts provides Ronwe a tireless pleasure, as it fills the ranks of the Yozis at the expense of the Malfeans. Ghosts who share Ronwe's bed wake transformed into shadows, exhilarated with their new knowledge and reveling under the shadow of the Ebon Dragon. Their exuberance and semi-insubstantial nature provide a vigor, utility and lust to please rarely seen from other demons, so long as they are kept from the light.

The shmir are approximately six feet tall, and resemble long wooden staves wrapped in purple silk. Their arms and legs fold perfectly flush against their bodies, and they often remain stationary for days on end. When dipped in blood, their silk wrappings unfurl into two broad wings and their true functionality is revealed. The shmir are living musical instruments that convey their lord's hatred to the world. When they are played, somewhat like a gigantic saxophone, they can drive men mad with the sheer rage of their song. Shmir can be called into the world by the hissing of blood boiling off of hot metal. A shmir's compliance and placidity can be secured by keeping it well-fed with blood and by placing it in a shadowed, dusty corner when not in use.

Sekai towers over most men, with broad shoulders and a powerful build. Her skin and hair are both a dull gray, and her eyes gleam like ivory.  Darkness swirls about her, clinging to her as gleaming black armor, congealing into hammers and blades at her design. She rides her own twisted shadow like a horse, and it comprises the greater part of her strength; it may split into many or merge into one, or take tangible form and act on her behalf.
+
The shriv-naku take the form of great dire wolves four feet at the shoulder. Great flanged, curving blades sprout from them at the shoulders, knees, and paws, and all along their back. As the demon ages, the blades grow and increase in number. A shriv-naku can run for many days and nights and cannot be slain by mortal weapons. When in pursuit of a lost cause, they can outrun even the wind, leap the widest crags, carry great burdens, and slay small armies. They are greatly enticed by the sound of oaths sworn, the scent of tears in the desert, and the cries of dying babies.

Even demons have their poets, and among the demons of the 2nd circle, no greater poet is there than Shedu, the Poetry of Desolation.  In the time before Ghroth's chaining, Shedu was the Bringer of Tears and Sorrow, for her stanzas could reduce even the hardest-hearted of gods and Primordials to tears.  Now, she spreads misery with her verses, seeking only to add her sorrow to the joy of others.  Unlike all other demons, her binding was different, for she is not bound in Hell, but rather bound to witness endless catastrophy in Creation, a vagabond without power over where she wanders.  For this reason, she hates Creation more than Ghroth himself, for her own home is now her cell of confinement.  No sorcerer can summon her, but tragedy that leaves nations desolate can bring her forth.

Where he lays down a wall, a divide springs up among men, and their purposes will come to oppose one another.  He works with joy, and watches the strife it causes impassivelyFor now, he waits with the patience of the stone he holds to break free, and to begin his work by walling apart the five poles from each other.

There are those in Creation who trade in favors and breath, who know naught but the ways of power and the connections that bind people.  They are amateurs, all, to the Tatar.  The Tatar are found throughout Malfeas.  They all dress as high men and women of mortal courts, drapped in silk and cloth of gold, beatiful to look upon- save their eyes, which are open caverns, forever dripping dollops of ruby bright blood down their painted faces.  They speak in a dry whisper, and many are accomplished singers, but that is not why the Tatar are called to Creation or how they are used in the demon city - the blind eyes of the Favor Friends see the web of connections that binds one heart to another, both of good and ill intentThey know how all the pieces may be moved, and so never lack, and forever scheme and plot to bring ruin upon all others of their kindNo Tartar cares for anyone but itself, however, and so they are blind to the presence of their kin, keeping them seperate and weak where they could have been great.

He is known to favour the number nine, although no one knows why, and he has not been sighted in Malfeas for centuries.

The Thamorae are the servants and lovers of those who visit of Dilmun. They appear as gorgeous maidens of tanned skin dressed in the finest and most revealing clothes of impossible iridiscent hues that cling to their flawless bodies. Their eyes are bright, broken or flawed emeralds that shine a bit of Vitaris' light into the hearts of man and women alike, reflecting their inner dreams and stealing their memmories of a place outside The Intricate Paradise. The Thamorae can softly whisper dreams and stories  not yet told in the ears of their lovers, as they are excellent storytellers, dancers and performers. When summoned alone, the Thamora lust only to return to Dilmun, and take victims with them. They fiercely hate beautiful women and faithful men.

Tar Lashan is the quietude that her siblings lack. Appearing as a great violet spider with the upper torso of a woman badly beaten with crimson hair, she wields a blazing staff in each of her hands. She will smile broadly as you observe her work, for the loneliness of her position has driven her mad. She was to be the most vivacious of those that Sil Urxan observes but that will never be.  Her lust for power and hunt for riches is never ending as she weaves her webs to ensnare her foes. She is the general, the vizier, the council of advisors planning for war. As her plans come to fruition and those that would move against her fall into her web, she lights it aflame. At once, she is revealed and her plans are rent into the same ash as her foes.  As the flames fail, she is in darkness once more, until her next quarry is burned alive before her.  Those that would summon Tar Lashan seek to know how to undo their foes and she will grant them their vengeance, but one of their deepest desires shall never come to pass in return.

The Theodoracis appear as beautiful maidens made completely from limestone. If they remain perfectly still, in a hearthbeat they begin to grow moss and deep green vines that cling to their bodies. The Theodoracis await next to gardens, ponds and each bridge The Prince Upon The Tower has ever built, so they can strangle lovers who frequent these spots with their vines and their cold mighty stone arms and bosoms. It is said that some of the kindess of Jacint is burned in a Theodoracis' soul when she comes into existence, and they sometimes spare mortal lovers if they feel their love is true. After a Theodoracis has fed on lover¥s blood (demon or otherwise), the vines blossom on pale blue alabaster flowers and her stone skin turns to flesh, albeit for a night only. The Theodoracis can then walk off her pedestal and find a new spot to hunt before she returns to her statuesque form. Also, a potent love philtre can be created using the Theodoracis' moss.

The Theon are depicted as albino human children of impossible pure white skin, mercurial hair and veiled marmorean eyes that strike fear in all those who set their own upon them. They sometimes wear bright woven-light clothes and speak in a polytone language of brass bells which was taught to them by The Sigil¥s Dreamer, shining calamitous light into the hearts of men. Those mortals and animals touched by the light of the Theonis are left forever albino and mad. The Theon are the debris of Vitaris, filtered through Jacint and then to Zsofika. They enjoy stealing people¥s memories depicting beatiful sights, and eventually, if they manage to fool a mortal, to exchange his sight and eyes in Creation for those a demon citizen has in Malfeas, though this lasts only for a while. Demons pay dearly to see the world outisde their prison, if only for a few hours, while the mind of the mortal slowly perishes under the aberrant skyline and impossible features of Malfeas. The Theon are greedy but not clever negotiators and sometimes used as harvesters of visions for powerful demon courtesans. The sight of Creation is considered a delicacy in some Malfean Courts, and Third Circles even beset Theons to steal particular sights from particular people. If summoned, a Theon can be ordered to blind an enemy or steal a beloved sight from him. The marble eyes of a Theon can be made into certain artifacts used for revealing dematerialized spirits and hidden things.

An embodiment of desire who compulsively seduces.
+
There are few things more pitiful and wretched than a Tluspa.  Their eyes are huge and despairing, and they speak in hushed sobs.  Their faces are pale, and their robes are drab and ragged.  Some confuse them for ghosts, and something in them is much closer to human than many other demons.  But the warmth of a mortal embrace, the only thing that stills their tears and for a moment ends their sorrow, also freezes the marrow in the bones of the hapless mortal, and quickly kills them.  It is said that every Tluspa has one mortal they are destined to meet, whose embrace will not grow cold, who will still their tears forever.  Those who whisper this legend, however, often disagree whether this means the destruction or salvation of the demon.

'''Author''': [[Han'ya]]
  
Thancharat most commonly manifests in the form of writing: a scrivenerís entry in a ledger, a sorcerous circle of runes, or a shining glyph that hangs quivering upon the air. These runes burn straight through the mind to impose thoughts, erase them, or simply shatter a hapless readerís sanity, leaving only a gibbering husk that jabbers endlessly in unknown tongues. Its mortal form is that of an elderly man or woman whose body is made of innumerable tiny runes, whose face bears a web of wrinkles that compose a cryptic sign of terrible potency.
+
Growing wherever there is pure water in Malfeas, and as such rare, the tokhaeroth appear as long-stemmed white flowers whose pollen is grainy and black, like obsidian dust. When inhaled, this pollen provokes serious and calm examination of deeply-held beliefs and desires. It calls forth memories and logic to destroy conviction and purpose. It has no effect on those who have decided that achieving their goal is more important than anything else, even morals or their own lives. Tokhaeroth cannot be destroyed by fire or poison, and grow in wet mud. If their roots are pulled out or their stems cut, they disappear in a cloud of pollen and regrow under the next full moon. They can be summoned by the sobs of a doubt-filled soul in a street during the day.

There was a place and a time.  Before that, there was Theda.  Theda can not be found now, for it is gone before it has arrived.  Theda can only be found while on a journey elsewhere - he knows everything that can happen on the ending of a journey.  Long ages ago, when the Willful Children still served as they should, it is said that Theda was the lover of the Maidens, and some still question its motivations and desires.  When Theda is found, it is what would be most appropriate before the travel's end - a palace, an inn, a farmer's hut or a circus.  Only its personal appearance remains constant: a tree, with rubies and emeralds for cherries and leaves, molted gold for bark and living brass for flesh, bleeding amber for sap.

Mellamy's purpose is dual:  to draw sin out where it exists, and purge it.  To this end, she will at times crush one of the myriad shells that circle her neck, and cast the pieces away covered in her blood, and they form into a serpent.  The newborn Tosuir searches out the guilty, and with its venom leaves them guilt-ridden, suffering regret for anything and everything that one may have doubts over.  Those who commit suicide under such circumstances lose their souls to the Tosuir, and this strengthens them.

This book tells of things better forgotten - the world before the Primordial War.  It tells of the nature of demons and the deep workings of their minds; even the agatae are conprehensible to one that has mastered this book.  In the Palace, it appears as a man in ancient armor, orbited by a constellation of eyes.  He has a great many legs, but it is difficult to tell the precise number.

The Traemas look like heavily built, fierce bald southerners with burning ember eyes. They carry war banners made from bone and argent silk with the sign of the celebration of Zsofika, also called the Signs of the Rotten Star. Kite Flutes atop these banners sing The Aria Of Inevitability. They are fierce protectors of their mother, and will attack  and devour anyone who tries to stall her from her prey. If summoned alone, they serve as relays with potent magics that bend the path of arrows and other missiles away from the sorcerer.

It is said that when Trespan first came into being, birthed from the wisdom of Echthros, he looked to his father and spoke The Truth. His words were not recorded, or perhaps they were, but the Rip in the World-Cloth has long since consumed them. He was cursed then and there to suffer, to know exactly what he looked at, to see nothing but the truth, the most awful truth there was. Since then, he has cycled between preternatural calm and insanity, regenerating his eyes only to tear them out when his too-keen vision divulges too much.
+
There is no set shape to an Uthiul, merely a color, a glassy, smoky, and empty grey that neither reflects light nor lets it through.  They hide easily, rarely larger than a handful of their substance, and move quickly to engulf anything that catches their eye, or that a sorceror commands them to consume. Their touch is smooth and cool, and in less than a minute, the tiny blob can engulf a large man, and then suddenly collapse back to its regular size. Anything or anyone thus eaten goes Elsewhere, to remain until the Uthiul elects to give up what it has eaten.

Taking the form of an immense orb comprised of small hexagonal tiles of white jade, Txil Mahuatztli is the only means by which Jarlastran speaks with his subsidiary souls and with others. The death of One Crowned With Seven Rings In Quietude, Jarlastran's voice and expository ability, rendered Jarlastran unable to directly communicate with any but Txil Mahuatztli, his introspective subsidiary consciousness. The great soul rests in a cathedral constructed in the center of Jarlastran's six towers. He speaks to his subsidiary souls not with words, but by emitting light in sequence, pattern, and rhythm from the tiny jade hexagons that form his shell. These messages are an intricate code known only to his attendants, who relay their lord's will to all who would know it.
+
As Hrulik rides The Fields, oftentimes his bandages peel away from their diseased mass and fall to the ground. There, they creep until they find one near to death and wrap themselves around their wounds. The dark putresence within them corrupts and claims their victim's body for use as their own. They cannot bear the touch of a skilled healer and will spit their assorted illnesses like snakes if threatened.

All things once obeyed Clariandra, for she was regent and queen of all things that crawled or swam or flew.  Even time itself was hers to beckon or dismiss, and Ur-Namuur, the Mask Who Stalks the Dance of Time, was her herald in these things.  Once, Ur-Namuur could travel the weft and warp of time, stepping between the moments like a spider in his web, but after the dawn of the First Age, such gifts were lost to him.  Entrapped in Malfeas, Ur-Namuur cannot walk Creation, nor may he be summoned, for should he walk the world once more, time would be his to conquer.  In visage, Ur-Namuur is a titanic clockwork man, with a timepiece in his chest; like all the clocks of the Hell-realm, Ur-Namuur cannot tell proper time, and thus is lost in the eternity of imprisonment.

The xoxoti scurry amongst the mighty pipework of Temozarael's body, scraping rust, corrosion, detritus, and caked Essence from the mechanisms. Their hands are elegantly designed, with large shovel-like claws and a second set of thin, nimble fingers tipped with claws to scrape and clean their master's veins. Their skin is thick and bumpy, covered in irregular growths and wrinkles. They can endure extremes of heat and cold that would make even a Solar with Resistance charms out the butt shudder, and they eat filth and drink poison. Their lives are short and brutal, spent keeping Temozarael in good working order, and frequently dying horrible messy deaths by frying, freezing, scalding, crushing, ripping, or any other plethora of horrible industrial accidents. When summoned, they are frequently used to brave environmental dangers and retrieve artifacts or repair machinery.

Uruk the Mighty takes the visage of a warrior with thews of steel and burning brass, with a helmed face that bespeaks much suffering.  Uruk is the inversion of his master Ashar'Lhan, and is the embodiment of pain.  His skin bleeds for a million wounds, and to see his unhelmed face is to see a patchwork quilt of flayed flesh and sewed-on muscle.  Uruk is revered by torturers and inquisitors, for many have need of his arts.

Those who have witnesed the apparition of a Zcylse speak of her as a small, languid, childlike being with skin made from ebon and bone-white hair. They are reported to turn wheat sprouts, pine needles and rose buds into deadly living arrows. To some, they are the embodiment of the hunt of Zsofika, and the Zcylse lend themselves as bows for those who hunt their own kind, for the Zcylse draws breath only while something beatiful has been turned into a deadly weapon. At will, the Zcylse can take the shape of a magnificent composite bow, made from deep dark ebon and bone, carved with forbidden sigils, who can turn any pointed natural object into a deadly arrow that hungers for the heart-pulse of their victims. When a Zcylse finds a lonely archer who has lost his weapon, she offers herself and if he accepts, she becomes her weapon by day, her lover by night and her guide all the time. She will try to murmur softly into his ears the True Name of Kalmanka, the Arrow Wind, to make his arrows more deadly. The bow shape of each Zcylse is unique, and considered for all purposes a Perfect Weapon.

Vokmar is a weapon.  What weapon is drawn from the weilder- a sword in one hand, a quill in another.  Vokmar grants victory to any that use her, save in their moment of greatest need - and at that moment, she twists, breaks, and fails, leaving those who strive to strive without her assistance.  She sometimes appears as a woman over twelve feet tall, composed of blue fire and red water in equal proportion.

Yir the Golden strides the field of battle like a prince among the earth, a giant ten feet tall, made of solid brass and clay.  For Yir is the joy of battle, the glee of frenzy, and the love of carnage, all things that Ashar'Lhan longs for but cannot consumate.  Yir wields the Harmony of Ecstacy, a daiklave of Malfean iron that slays all mortals it touches and causes Exalted to bleed from their eyes. Yir is mad with pain, for it is said that when Adorjan was Adrian, Yir was known as Yulnah the Free, the embodiment of bodiless mentality. Forced into solid shape with the rise of Adorjan, Yir the Golden suffers; and as he suffers, so suffers Creation.

A victim of Shoggoleth, the end result of cutting away anything unessential to your desire.

Adrymne

Lineage: Adorjan / Jacint / Gumela
Title: The Sleepless Scour
Author: Sindaen

The typical Adrymne consist of ten million iron ants, each twice the size of a flea. If they choose to become one being, the ants coalese into an amorphous humanoid shape made entirely of rust and thriving ants. The Adrymne love nothing more that to erode things of beauty and usefulness, and are a constant plague in the Demon Realm. When summoned, the Adrymne can easily devour 2,000 lbs of common metal or stone in an hour, leaving only rusty flakes or a mound of dust. They can also build trenches or underground tunnels large enough for a man to walk straight five miles in just a day. If commanded to do so, the Adrymne also can consolidate to form a bridge, or a chain made of small iron ants. The Adrymne never sleep.

Title: the Harpist
Author: White Wolf

Antip

Lineage: Kimbery / Fastred / Loreli
Title: Sailors on a Sea of Bile
Author: DariusSolluman

The Antip are an ancient people, plying their ships of brass and bone across Malfeas' oceans and riverways. They are all accomplished sailors and oarsmen, far surpassing any mortal at the task of piloting any craft that travels over the waves. Each one is stunted and horrific- a hunchback, tailed, with one eye as large as a saucer or open wounds that never close. They claim to be searching for something they have yet to lose, and when it is found they will hide it from themselves, but in the meanwhile they act as both the navy and the commerce bringers that help tie the demon hosts together under a single banner of trade and travel. For Malfeas is always growing, and beyond the edge of the map there be monsters.

Ashteri

Lineage: Oramus / Xerysis / Oshymitus
Title: the Hissing Intrigues
Author: Dimitryi

Occasionally, during Oshymitus' spying, those being watched, paranoid themselves, spot the capillary-eyes and cut them from the body of the demon from which they spring. These dismembered pieces of Oshymitus sometimes grow into Ashteri, blood-red snakes whose hissings spread ideas of imaginary conspiracies, plots, and schemes to those unfortunate enough to hear them. On very rare and ominous occassions, Ashteri rain upon the city of Malfeas from above, and the schemes they place in the minds of demons lead to catastrophic events for years to come.

Axvus

Lineage: TheFieldsOfRotAndSorrow / Adrigor / Durgenil
Title: The Thousand Cutpurses of Decay
Author: EwindaleMoss

Axvus are often seen as the crows that fly from one end of the Fields to the other, hunting for corpses to pull the flesh from. They are swift, silent, and thorough. Even those that aren't completely dead yet may find a beak full of their back or an unguarded eye being plucked from their body and carried back to the toothy pits of Adrigor for consumption. While cats will always see an Axvus for what it truly is, these demons are called upon when a sorcerer needs something of value stolen from a rival. In Creation, they are soft-spoken and androgynous young humanoids with eyes of midnight that leave feathers wherever they walk. While the Axvus is always happy to ply its trade in Creation, it requires a full-size dead human to eat beforehand or else it may grow inattentive and stray from its task.

Baatyr

Lineage: Kimbery / Fastred / Theda
Title: The Grief Without Warning
Author: DariusSolluman

Stop. Remember your loss. Feel the pain and heartache wash over you again, feel the wound as fresh and raw as the day it was dealt. Now look carefully, and see if you do not find a tiny dagger of brass, no larger than a flea, embedded in your flesh. That dagger is one of the Baatyr - they travel in swarms through Malfeas, flying through the air with a high pitched, thin whine that rises like a flood when they move as a flock. To be pierced by a Baatyr is to have old and healed wounds torn open afresh. Eventually even the strongest succumb if the Baatyr is not stopped- the constant reminders of pains and regrets drive them to seek madness or death as a simple relief from the agony.

Bhefelsa

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Jarlastran / Txil Mahautztli
Title: the Hooded Attendants
Author: Han'ya

The bhefelsa are small, no more than four feet in height. Their skeleton is configured in such a way that hey walk perpetually stooped over. They garb themselves in robes woven of their own threadlike excretions. In form, they are something like a small child with slick skin the color of mummified skin, with foot-long tentacles extending over their rudimentary mouth-holes like a beard. These tentacles are coated with small hairs like those of the gecko's feet, allowing them a fantastic grip on absolutely any solid. They attend to the welfare of Txil Mahuatztli, carving his words into their flesh, informing the other souls of their lord's will, polishing his globe, removing broken or clouded tiles and tending the gaps with unguents derived from their blood. They are of little use to sorcerors, for they wail piteously and wither in despair when forced to leave the presence of One Revealing Amidst Black Towers.

Title: With the Bladed Hands
Author: TheHoverpope

Torturers of men created by Anetessa to convince victims of the need for his services.

Cervella

Lineage: Adorjan / Jacint / Zsofika
Title: The Heartbeat Drummer
Author: Sindaen

The Cervella appear as imposibly large, bestial women, standing over 12 feet tall with oily black skin adorned with red runes painted all over her body. Her eyes are sharp, deep green but blind and collars made from human bones and teeth hang from her body. The Cervella always carries a drum made from human skin with her and a drumstick made from the bones of a pelagic whale monster that has never truly died. The Cervellas exist only to play to the rhythm of the Silent Wind' heartbeat. Her music is powerful and primal and escorts Zsofika¥s Celebration, and creatures of bestial nature gather when they hear they play. If summoned, the Cervella can break the rhythm of anything, making the raindrops dance madly or disrupting the coming of spring. In their presence, all things, beast and men slowly fall to the embrace of their drumbeat, and time itself flows oddly, ebbing to the eternal beating of the heart of Adorjan.

Chittum

Lineage: Kimbery / Persine / Mokol
Title: The Teeth of the Sea
Author: StalkerofShadows

When Mokol devoured the first creature to dare to attempt to steal from Perseine, his blood scattered throughout the seas. Some of the blood was eaten by fish, and it transformed them into the Chittum. Although the blood was not from Mokol, his touch had infested it with his jealousy. However, the Chittum believe that blood is the most precious treasure, and seek to collect it for their own. These creatures can often be found in the depths of Kimberry, following in Mokol's wake. They are sometimes summoned to Creation when the blood of a treasure diver is spilled by a sea creature.

Chrysogona

Lineage: EbonDragon / Erembour / Makarios
Title: the Crying Woman
Author: White Wolf

Corosime

Lineage: Cecelyne / Verthan / Ataranta-Etana
Title: the Storm-Borne Glories
Author: Kalisara

Whirlwinds of glittering dust, blowing from Ataranta-Etana when the wind scours her copper skin, the corosime desire only to dance. They are not fond of the city but are often seen twisting and spinning in the Endless Desert, sometimes accompanied in their dance by gilmyne and barra-kith, and are beautiful to see. Dancing with a corosima, wrapped around by its shining coils, a summoner can travel more swiftly than the fastest racehorse, but at the price of a skin left raw and bleeding from the abrasion of metal dust.

Csyvel

Lineage: Adorjan / Sazakya
Title: The Ivory Hearder, Messenger Soul Of The Storm Of Wrathful Winds
Author: Sindaen

Each time The Storm Of Wrathful Winds changes direction, the lightning locusts that live within her intone one verse from The Omninous Chant Of Destruction. Their humming calls forth thunder, and is the mission of Csyvel to tame and herd this thunder riding his ivory dragon. Csyvel himself has the shape of a massive dreadful old man, wearing a cape of frost and with his pale but muscular body ornated with the thousand names of thunder, like an old northern king. He wears a white long cape that bites the skin on his back. He has a pair of useless bone wings that have been long eaten by the locusts, and he tames lightning with a mighty iron trident. Csyvel rides a big white ivory dragon called Rhozva, that looks more like an giant undead eel with insectoid claws and eyes. When summoned in Creation, Csyvel leaves his duty unattended, and the lightning-song of his mother causes great destruction in Malfeas. When Csyvel reaches Creation, his hair crisps and tingles with while lightning and things of earth scowl at his presence. He is a mighty warrior and knows how to call forth storms, for their counterparts in creation were shaped after her mother. Csyvel has sometimes ride into the far reaches of Malfeas, sending Rhozva during Calibration to steal a mortal woman for him. For the entire Air Season she is raped by Csyvel and kept in Rhozva¥s womb. After the season of Earth has passed in Creation, the woman, now pregnant is devoured from the inside by a myriad of pale locusts, her name now belonging to Csyvel and the hunger of the locusts stops for one full month.

The Ember-Born

Lineage: SheWhoLivesInHerName / Geneth / Khsiret
Title:
Author: Quendalon

These clouds of powdery ash drift about of their own accord, as if on an unseen wind; their ardor varies with the light, such that they settle into dormancy in dark places. They absorb all forms of energy and take it into themselves, so as to glow red with heat, blue with lightning, or green with Ligierís light. When so charged, an Ember-Born may set things afire and feed upon the smoke, taking the burnt thing into itself. On occasion, they feed on life or matter, leaving behind a warm corpse or a wisp of ash, but they prefer to devour ideas, perceptions, memories and dreams, stripping these things away from those they engulf.

Emputhanei

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Kubriya
Title: the Winged Choristers
Author: Han'ya

The emputhanei are Kebrael's twisted attempt at beauty of form. Like the geshuggin, they feel no fear, but love, hatred, and pain are by no means alien sensations. They take the form of red-haired, early adolescent female human children, with their arms replaced by snowy white wings. The upper halves of their faces are concealed by iron masks, and their eyes burn with hellfire. Their mouths are filled with delicate fangs, and they cannot speak except in birdlike caws and croaks. Their feet are tipped in long obsidian talons, and they can heal from wounds supernaturally fast. They are unquestioningly loyal to their lord, and will obey any of his dictates. The song they sing when given any quantity of gold is heartbreakingly sweet and otherworldly, but it pales in comparison to the songs they can produce when fed pure orichalcum. The melodies produced are otherworldly in their beauty, filled with aeons of pain and sorrow and longing to be free. The terrible sadness and awesome madness contained therein has been known to break the hardest hearts and shatter the strongest minds. They cannot abide the gleam of steel or the sound of glass breaking, and can be called into the mortal realm by the wails of a newly orphaned child.

Ferimur

Lineage: EbonDragon / Marsilion / Alioth
Title: the Evanescent Journeyman
Author: Quendalon

These swirling ribbons of reddish-black fog coalesce into manlike shapes with long, delicate fingers and scarlet eyes. They fashion the metal and stone of the demon realm into cunning forms, constructing blades and tools, talismans and ornaments, always working a measure of their own substance into their creations. For all of their skillful craftsmanship, such devices bear the curse of the ferimur, bringing dark moods and ill fortune to those that bear them. Eventually a ferimur invests the last of itself in an item, and ceases to be; but when one of its creations is used to kill, a new ferimur rises from the blood shed thereby.

Ferthan

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Sossurl
Title: the Marble Steed
Author: Mockery

Sometimes, there are no walls that Sossurl can build, and at these times he strikes at the stone in his hand with his trowel. The block cracks, and from within comes a six-legged foal that grows to maturity in a week. No Ferthan can walk along a field or a desert, or any place that does not by its nature divide one place from another. To do so will kill it instantly. The horse can, however, walk along any dividing line with ease, whether it be a road, a river, a fence, or the empty gap of a canyon.

Fetch

Lineage: SheWhoLivesInHerName / Munaxes / Stanewald
Title: the Blasphemy in Robes of Flesh
Author: EotBeholder

Skin-wrapped priestesses, one part demon cult leader and one part heavy artillery.

Fillax

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Kassat
Title: The Wondrous Butterfly
Author: Mockery

There are times, even under the green sun of Ligier, where pure white light pierces Kassat, and in the space of a few seconds, she births through her mouth a caterpillar the size of a dog. With its creation, Kassat chooses a thing that it admires, and at the next calibration, it metamorphoses to resemble this: a sword, a man or woman, a tree or other demon. The Fillax has nothing but adulation for that which it resembles, and will seek it out in Creation, if it has the chance, and can be told apart from its original only by the prismatically-hued wings it sports that can carry it anywhere. However, if its perfect image of the original is cracked, if the original changes in any way from how it was at the Fillax's creation, if it is scarred, if it learns or changes its mind, love withers and turns to hate, and the Wondrous Butterfly will do its utmost to destroy the original, even though it, too, will die in the process.

Firmin

Lineage: EbonDragon / Erembour / Alveua
Title: the Needlemaker
Author: White Wolf

Forge Daughters

Lineage: Ghroth / Mageddon / Balseraph
Title: spawn of the Metalsmith
Author: Nero's Boot

Balseraph is a maker and a builder, for such was taught him by Autochthon in days of yore and legend. But not all things he makes are intentional, and not all are loved or cherished. Of all the creatures that dwell in Creation, only cicadas dwell also in Malfeas. Mad in cacophany of noise, Malfean cicadas are drawn to the Metalsmith, for they sense he can make more of them. As Balseraph works his forge, sparks fall onto the ground, and the cicadas eat them, becoming Forge Daughters, a fusion of beautiful human woman and insect. Like their father, who hates them, Forge Daughters are makers and builders; but from their father's hate comes imperfection, and nothing the demon-cicadas make will endure past one night. This drives the Forge Daughters to urgency and despair, which the Metalsmith revels in.

G'Brogassmir

Lineage: TheFieldsOfRotAndSorrow / Tulchinary / Ratex Il
Title: The Bloodborn
Author: EwindaleMoss

The never born children that Ratex Il steals away from her victims are not committed to the realm of the dead. No, not at all. Instead, they fester and bubble in the clotting womb of Ratex Il and are born the G'Brogassmir. The children of Ratex Il are born with all the splendor of their sires. They beam the radiance of a hero, their strength and beauty the things of legend in the realm of Creation. And yet, once one begins to look more closely, their feet are cloven hooves and they hide mule ears beneath their flowing hair. Like her father, Ratex Il too is incapable of former glories and all the G'Brogassmir are sterile mules who blazing glory fades the longer they are exposed to air. They regain their beauty by bathing in their mother or in a foe's blood, and so are frequently challenged any who will listen to a duel for fear of growing powerless.

Geranosi

Lineage: EbonDragon / Erembour / Gruidtsuru
Title: the Broken-Winged Crane
Author: Wordman

An alternative to the more involved version of this book of evil spelled out by FourWillowsWeeping in the Oramus entry, these demons are twisted and corrupt shadows of their creator, embodied in books. What's more, they know they are flawed, that their only hope of being made whole is to bring a reader, the more powerful the better, home. They lack mobility and voice, but when their knowledge is inevitably accessed, most will introduce their reader to Gruidtsuru, one way or another. Others hate themselves and their maker, and will connect to another demon out of spite. Still others have been usurped and converted to serve other masters.

Geshuggin

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Kubriya
Title: the Masked and Unfeeling
Author: Han'ya

The geshuggin are almost physically identical to humans at surface inspection. They are completely uniform in body and mind, no two any different. Even the weapons they bear are borne by sheer coincidence and their lord's fancy. Any identifying markings are not removed, but are ignored nonetheless. All are exactly seven feet tall, inhumanly brawny, and wrapped in strips of white material like a cross between paper, kidskin, and silk. This material is often stained with their black blood, and serves as bandages for the many wounds they suffer. Geshuggin do not feel pain, do not have any discernible emotions, and do not seem to forget. They have a sense of smell like a wolf's, never tire, do not breath, and cannot speak. Their faces are concealed by smooth white porcelain masks that cannot be shattered by even the mightiest blows from mortal weapons. They will continue to fight even if their ribcages are ripped open, and will not suffer being restrained, doing whatever they must to be free, even tearing their own forearms and shins off when crucified, the one thing they fear above all. They usually fight in groups, but do not use group tactics. They are simply a mass of individuals with a common purpose. They take no orders, not even if magically compelled, unless they are commanded by a servant of Tharalstrazix, human, demon, or Infernal.

Hulg

Lineage: TheFieldsOfRotAndSorrow / Tulchinary / Prex Il
Title: The Spiteful Burrowers
Author: EwindaleMoss

The Hulg are those unfortunates who plunge within Prex Il's depths to reach their foes, only to be gutted by her waters. The eyeless skins that emerge afterwards appear as they did in life barring their now blood-red eyes. In silence, they take pick or shovel or claws to the banks of Prex Il, ever widening their mother's banks. They are called upon by those seeking treasures on riverbeds or those wishing to speed up the creation of irrigation systems. Their work is often flawed however, unless the summoner pays close attention, for the original soul is never fully suppressed and will hide flaws in their until their duty has been completed.

Husermus

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Jarlastran / Txil Mahautztli
Title: the Air Illumed By Dreams Of Words
Author: Han'ya

The husermus are the flowing atmosphere of Txil Mahuatztli's chamber. The fact is that the great white orb is not in fact awake, but rather dreaming. He is occupied with looking into the soul of Jarlastran, and does this by dreams, which (a school of thought holds) are the mind sorting itself out and cross-referencing information. The truest picture of one can be gained from their dreams, so Txil Mahuatztli dreams and speaks in his sleep. The bhefelsa record his words, and the husermus absorb them, the light and the words in the light accruing in them. The husermus can be summoned and commanded to disgorge the contents of their minds. Their spiritual metabolism converts the light into sounds and images comprehensible to other creatures, if only with some difficulty. A glimpse into the mind and memory of a Third Circle demon can be a powerful thing. Great secrets and great insights could be gained. Great horror and madness as well.

Itafiera

Lineage: EbonDragon / Erembour / Alveua
Title: the Rhinestone Cricket
Author: GoldenCat and Greymane

Also known as the Demon of Dramatic Cues, Itafiera's resemble small brass crickets encrusted with glistening, but ultimately valueless gemstones. Few who go to the demon city (and live) realize that the countless numbers of wind chimes dangling from the windows and doorways and other, nameless portals are actually the larval form of an Itafiera. Itafieras are prized in Creation by mortal performers and acting troupes, for they are masters of producing exactly the proper sound or music to fit the moment. They rub their tiny legs together and produce heroic fanfares, sorrowful violin strings, and even the roaring crash of battle. That music enhances dramatic feats and people, spurs the drama in motion, and even at times warns its allies of misfortune before it strikes.

Jasperid

Lineage: Malfeas / Ekrasios / Jolenta
Title: the Precious Serpent
Author: FourWillowsWeeping

These serpents of Malfeas are made of agate and onyx, and have triple-forked golden tongues. There are three kinds: day serpents, twilight serpents, and night serpents. The day serpent's venom makes its victim turn to fire in sunlight; the twilight serpent's victim fades away when he steps out of shadow, and the night serpent's victim turns to black ice in the darkness.

Jwan

Lineage: Kimbery / Fastred / Theda
Title: They Who Seek Life-In-Death
Author: DariusSolluman

The Jwan are farmers and peasants, scratching out a living against Malfeas' pulpy soil and blood rich rivers. They can be found almost everywhere, scurrying like the ants they resemble- each covered in a black resin shell, clacking mandibles and claws of bone tearing the ground apart. Although their crops are bountiful, few off the demons have not grown sick of the fruit rich with the Yozi's essence or grain bowed heavily with his hair. The Jwan themselves claim to seek the Life-In-Death, the fruit that brings even the dead back to life; to what purpose, they will not say.

Kalevala

Lineage: Thari / Gobasi / Euskarra
Title: the Child who Births the Mother
Author: Mockery

When it is Calibration, all of Euskarra's hands fall from him or herself, and the tiny bits of foil build up until the dawn of the first day of the Calendar. At this point, Euskarra pulls himself free and leaves behind a cast of himself, and this cast becomes the Kalevala. The body, massive and multicolored from so many metals, is silent as the grave, and does as it is told by either Euskarra, or whoever has summoned it. It is a little-known secret that the Kalevala's birthing wound never truly heals, and it may open this to hold its summoner inside itself, and be controlled from such a position as if it were a warstrider of no little strength.

Kayabi

Lineage: Thari / Gobasi
Title: the Tenebrous Amphibologies
Author: Translucidity

Each puff of smoke enjoyed and expelled by Gobasi joins the indispersible haze about him; where the fumes of three lost texts are commingled, the air takes on an oily iridescence. This is the birthing of the Kayabi, whose indistinct forms exist to distinguish others. To look upon three Kayabi dancing is to see the invisible within them; seven, an echo of what has passed from the world; thirteen, the foreshadowing of what may be. Yet within each glimmering revelation is three more, and a truth hides in all and none of them.

Kerumath

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Oskilla
Title: the Lastling Road
Author: Mockery

The Kerumath is unassuming, a grey bird the size of a sparrow that flits from branch to branch and shakes itself fussily. It has a fondness for birdbaths. Like many demons of the first circle, though, this creature is intelligent, very much so. As long as one listens to it, they shall prosper in their endeavors. Business shall be brisk and profitable, skirmishes will fall in their direction. Unfortunately, while their chosen one proceeds to gain profits, every good thing that comes is counterbalanced by a misfortune that strikes a loved one. Jade and silver pours into his own coffers, and those around him become sickly, destitute, and die, until all that is left is a mighty lord standing alone, and the Kerumath leaves the man to his fate.

Longrenhimm

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Emicrade
Title: the Scissor Men
Author: Han'ya

The longrenhimm keep to the shadows of Malfeas, for their kind have an emnity with Ligier and his offspring whose root cause is not spoken of. They are over six feet in height, and resemble men only in the vaguest sense possible. What they really call to mind is a gigantic ostrich with chainsaws for skin. Long-necked, with hooked steel beaks and thousands of tiny blades on chains that never stop writhing and clicking along covering their metal skeletons and crackling green life-force, they are heralded by a clicking noise like knucklebones on a tiled floor when they are calm, and a fearsome shrieking when angered or fearful. They love the scent of fear, and as such are given to tormenting and toying with their prey before moving in for the kill, inevitably near a very public place, into which they will usually toss the corpse after savaging it and feeding. They can be enticed into service by the promise of fear and savage violence. As creatures which inspire fear, they are fearful themselves, even cowardly. If one is demonstrably more powerful than a longrenhimm, the creature will not disobey or attack them unless ordered to do so by either their summoner, a more powerful demon, or someone yet more powerful than the person in question, or unless they think they can get away with it.

Luminita

Lineage: SheWhoLivesInHerName / Munaxes / Octavian
Title: the Deer That Hunts The Man
Author: White Wolf

Marcule

Lineage: Oramus / Remondin / Esprevere
Title: the Raucous Agonists
Author: Translucidity

Primitive men of verdigris sprung from the passing of Esprevere through Hrotsvitha, the Marcule's will is to strive against their surroundings. Within every moment, the world strikes flakes of tainted metal from them, and between every moment they find a new path down which to grow in their struggles. The touch of their tarnished flesh is agony upon mortal skin, as it strives against their fragile nature; few survive, but those few are remade ever stronger until the spark of mortality is driven from their brazen flesh, and they join the ranks of the Marcule.

Massassi

Lineage: Malfeas / Ligier / Azimer
Title: The Formless Forms
Author: DS

When the Primordial War first began, Ligier sought some means of fighting against the Exalted. He is not Autocthon, and could never create Exalted Shards; but he did unleash the Massassi, crafted of the Hollow Knight's own flesh, blood and bone. The Massassi themselves have no more substance than a shadow; however, they are adept at taking control of a human host. Some cultists summon them and willingly allow themselves to be driven by the Massassi, vicariously triumphing through its strength; some Exalts use them as spies without compare.

Merodui

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Trespan
Title: the Tangled Whispers
Author: Mockery

There is something else that Trespan is known for making: just as he tears his own eyes from his face to bring himself into sanity, the last wordless hiss that emerges from his throat as he descends into madness also takes form as one of his offspring. A Merodu manifests as a crimson tangle of thread that moves by extending part of itself from the tangle, only to form a new knot several yards away. One can be cajoled into untangling itself, and may even allow itself to be woven into some article of clothing, a shirt or cloak. There, it will mutter to itself and its wearer, telling lies and half-truths that they both wish to believe.

Metody

Lineage: Malfeas / Ligier / Gervesin
Title: the Malfean Elemental
Author: White Wolf

Myrriah

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Oskilla
Title: the Madness at Morning
Author: Mockery

From the time that the rooster crows to the first time a subbeam hits the ground, the Myrriah stalks. It takes the form of a fine white cloud that might be confused for a cloud of mist, save that it pads on the ground like a cat. It hunts its prey, and when it finds a victim, it pounces, and the whole cloud forces itself into the lungs of the poor soul, who promptly goes insane. It can enter man, beast, or god, and consumes them from the inside out like a parasite, until all that is left is a dazed shell, and the Myrriah must leave.

Naheixos

Lineage: Cecelyne / Orabilis / Lucien
Title: the Empty Soul
Author: White Wolf

Demons without souls, ravenously hungry masters of stealth.

Nemmu

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Emicrade
Title: the Wide-Eyed With Blank Stares
Author: Han'ya

The nemmu are less prolific than some demons, but not rare by any means. They are roughly 2 feet in height, and are docile and largely harmless. In appearance, they are potbellied imps with stumpy limbs, small mouths and ears, and a single large eye that is nearly 6 inches in height, and almost 8 inches wide. Their one extraordinary gift is hidden in this gargantuan organ. When a nemmu turns its blank gaze on an object, it can instantly draw that object into a small pocket universe free of ordered time. A flower can slumber within and emerge fresh as the day it was picked. A piece of toast can be sucked within, and emerge cold but not stale. The timelessness is not logical, and so it is unwise to hide living things within the nemmu, for they will experience every instant of the time missed, and possibly much more, but without any of the physical side effects. The nemmu absorb objects apparently at random if given free will, and are often used as handy storage devices by their summoners. They are calm and placid, or appear so at least, and their willing service can be secured by an offering of a squash or a broken hourglass.

Neomah

Lineage: Malfeas / Ligier / Berengiere
Title: the Maker of Flesh
Author: White Wolf

Ogham

Lineage: Thari / Gobasi / Euskarra
Title: the Rambling Centipede
Author: Mockery

Euskarra has been summoned more than once, and she sheds her skin even in creation. And more than one summoner has sold those precious metals to a jewler, or been on themselves, and made rings and necklaces and pretty baubles. These things are cursed, though, and Euskarra may reach through Creation to pull those people who bear such an item back through to Malfeas, where she works dark magics into them and forges their body anew. An Ogham has the same face it did in its mortal existence, but its teeth are lengthened into sharp and silvery fangs. Its torso remains humanoid, though chitinous at the same time, and insectile arms run up and down its length; below the waist, the body becomes completely centipede, though appropriately massive and with streaks of whatever precious metal damned the human. They serve whatever ineffable will their father does, though they can explain it no better.

Ophana

Lineage: Adorjan / Zinnridi / Dilmun
Title: The Mephitic Blossom
Author: Sindaen

The Ophanae are talkative flowers that only grow in the gardens of the Intricate Paradise. They look like giant viper¥s bugloss flowers, large as a wolf¥s head with spiked petals of crimson and coral with lascive, whip like tonges. They know many languages, including those of the insects and plants, and can teach them to those who place a drop of blood from their lips in the flower¥s petals. They have a deep feminine voice, and their perfume is venomous to all those who have never found true love. Sages speculate that the Ophanae can slow but surely fascinate lonely men or women with this scent, inducing them into suicide. The blood and flesh of those who sucumb to the Mephitic Blossom¥s beckon are used to make soil fertile so new Ophanae may blossom. The Ophanas dry-rot in the light of The Unconquered Sun, but may bloom in argent colors with the caress of Luna¥s light reflecting on a polished brass mirror.

Title: Walker of Ash and Sand

A horse-sized praying mantis composed of sand partially fused into glass. The Pathatu is constantly surrounded by shimmering waves of heat and small wisps of flame, even when submerged in water (which they hate) or at the Elemental Pole of Air.

Peledora

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Netraphim
Title: Tales Told To The Wind
Author: Han'ya

The peledora are ephemeral, wispy beings. They take the form of clouds of purple ribbons that can only be seen during an eclipse, or in the light of the anima of the Eclipse caste. Their great power is to whisper truth directly into the mind of the unwary, not even themselves knowing from whence it came. The truths told will always strike at the conviction and dedication to their cause of the listener. They remain permanently dematerialized, and can only interact with our world through sound. The can be called by secrets being whispered to oneself under a full moon or in a dark, windowless room.

Creatures like sea urchins that act as wombs, creating terrible hybrid things in the demon city.

Relkast

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Roiye
Title: the Spider's Mask
Author: Mockery

The shadowy, hulking figure that is a Relkast is the stuff of nightmares. Its breath stinks of rot, and in its massive jaws one can see the remains of those who stood against it before. Its three-dozen eyes scan before it,and it hunts with predatory ease. Yet it seems that its crafter planned greatly upon its ability to intimidate; this terrible visage exists only in front, and if one should get a clear view of its back, they will see the little heart of the Relkast, a diminuitive, spidery puppeteer, soft and unarmored.

Salthri

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Sossurl
Title: the Four-faced Sephulcre
Author: Mockery

Those walls that Sossurl builds lead many to war, and there are times where two who hate each other by dint of those walls will slay each other. When they do, their higher and lower souls are pulled to the wall, and there are steeped in demonic magic until the next new moon, where at midnight from the rock crawls forth this thing, with four howling visages that leer like gargoyles. It knows no purpose but hate, and attacks all it can see, stopping only to open itself up to inter the bodies of the fallen.

Senesho

Lineage: EbonDragon / Erembour / Alveua
Title: the Stomach Bottle Bug
Author: White Wolf

Shadha

Lineage: EbonDragon / Marsilion / Alioth
Title: the Kindly Succubus
Author: Quendalon

These slender androgynes offer solace to all who desire it, their night-dark eyes bewitching any who meet their gaze. Their breath sharpens the mind but dulls the senses, eventually leaving their lovers helplessly deaf and blind. Contrariwise, the blood, sweat, flesh and tears of the Shadha all sharpen the senses while dulling the mind; such demons as would slay and feed upon them become mindless ravening beasts that haunt the darkened places of Malfeas.

Shak El

Lineage: TheFieldsOfRotAndSorrow / Sil Urxan / Drel-Ud
Title: The Gleaming Jealousy
Author: EwindaleMoss

The coins within Drel-Uds pouch are alive with malice and as he dispenses them as payment, they sink their miniscule teeth into the flesh of the one who thinks to own them. As their victim plunges into battle, they flood their victim with venom that slows their movements and dulls their mind until they move a moment too slowly and have their head severed from their shoulders. Then, the coins begin a shrill wailing, calling for their father to come collect them once more.

Shallaboth

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Baashayel
Title: the Heralds of Misfortune
Author: Han'ya

The shallaboth take the form of ordinary moths, unremarkable in every way except for their being the size of chihuahuas with 3-foot wingspans. They are not much use individually, but their abilities are exponentially multiplied when in groups. The unique ability of the shallaboth is their uncanny sense for misfortune or ill events. The shallaboth feed off of sunlight, and unlike most moths are diurnal. They have been known to slip through the barriers around Malfeas and hitchhike on the summonings of other demons.

Shilkani

Lineage: Adorjan / Zinnridi / Alalgar
Title: the Creeping Rift
Author: Quendalon

A chartreuse glow spills from these bizarre living wounds. A shilkani has no body, no flesh; it is merely a gap, an interstice, which glides across solid surfaces like a butterflyís shadow, shrinking to a greenish line no longer than a finger or gaping wide as an archway or oubliette. A shilkani lives to feed. Its gullet rests Elsewhere; that which it consumes vanishes from the world. Piercing a shilkaniís gullet with an artifact weapon slays it instantly, violently expelling its current meal; its master may also compel it to refrain from digesting a creature or thing, storing it unharmed for a day and a night. By dimming its fires, a shilkani may open a portal through the surface upon which it rests, forming a doorway through wood or stone ñ or a gushing wound in living flesh. Three things these demons cannot abide: the dances of the gilmyne, the smoke from burning thorns, and the sound of golden bells; any of these things will drive one away.

Shimazu

Lineage: SheWhoLivesInHerName / The Punisher Of Sin / The Outstretched Fist
Title: The Wardens of the Road
Author: FrivYeti

Shirikai

Lineage: EbonDragon / Erembour / Ronwe
Title: the Zealot Shades
Author: Wordman

Ronwe doesn't only teach the living, but the dead cannot handle such lessons and remain intact. Seducing ghosts provides Ronwe a tireless pleasure, as it fills the ranks of the Yozis at the expense of the Malfeans. Ghosts who share Ronwe's bed wake transformed into shadows, exhilarated with their new knowledge and reveling under the shadow of the Ebon Dragon. Their exuberance and semi-insubstantial nature provide a vigor, utility and lust to please rarely seen from other demons, so long as they are kept from the light.

Shmir

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Baashayel
Title: the Wrathful Pipers
Author: Han'ya

The shmir are approximately six feet tall, and resemble long wooden staves wrapped in purple silk. Their arms and legs fold perfectly flush against their bodies, and they often remain stationary for days on end. When dipped in blood, their silk wrappings unfurl into two broad wings and their true functionality is revealed. The shmir are living musical instruments that convey their lord's hatred to the world. When they are played, somewhat like a gigantic saxophone, they can drive men mad with the sheer rage of their song. Shmir can be called into the world by the hissing of blood boiling off of hot metal. A shmir's compliance and placidity can be secured by keeping it well-fed with blood and by placing it in a shadowed, dusty corner when not in use.

Shriv-Naku

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Netraphim
Title: the Blade-Wolves
Author: Han'ya

The shriv-naku take the form of great dire wolves four feet at the shoulder. Great flanged, curving blades sprout from them at the shoulders, knees, and paws, and all along their back. As the demon ages, the blades grow and increase in number. A shriv-naku can run for many days and nights and cannot be slain by mortal weapons. When in pursuit of a lost cause, they can outrun even the wind, leap the widest crags, carry great burdens, and slay small armies. They are greatly enticed by the sound of oaths sworn, the scent of tears in the desert, and the cries of dying babies.

Simnel

Lineage: EbonDragon / Marsilion / Achololim
Title: the Final Friend
Author: Quendalon

Dark veils conceal the true semblances of these squat, lumpish demons. Their keen noses discern the scents of pain and despair, drawing them like moths to a flame. It is their nature to offer surcease, whispering words of solace in their wearisome voices, and so lulling their charges to sleep. Their words dissolve those whom they press into slumber, transforming the sleepers into tears, wine, oil or blood, depending on their nature.

Talethus

Lineage: Chorifa / Anapyxi / Derethan
Title: The Most Wretched Mendicant
Author: TheHoverpope

Creatures shaped like holy men who take seek aid from the innocent and disease those who are kind to them.

Tassim

Lineage: TheFieldsOfRotAndSorrow / Adrigor / Skrissim
Title: The Stomachs That Wait
Author: EwindaleMoss

The Tassim are the tide of rats that follow Skrissim, picking corpses clean. They, like the Axvus, are the cleaners of the Fields, those who eventually feed Adrigor so that ever more of their kind can be excreted from the Fields. The Tassim find it relatively easy to slip through the cracks into Creation, being summoned by any great feast so indulgent that at least one guest dies from overstuffing themselves. The Tassim in Creation are small, furtive folk dressed in tattered furs. They are sent to corrupt and disrupt important gatherings by gorging themselves on any food they can reach and inspiring other guests to do the same.

Tatar

Lineage: Kimbery / Fastred / Loreli
Title: Favor Friends
Author: DariusSolluman

There are those in Creation who trade in favors and breath, who know naught but the ways of power and the connections that bind people. They are amateurs, all, to the Tatar. The Tatar are found throughout Malfeas. They all dress as high men and women of mortal courts, drapped in silk and cloth of gold, beatiful to look upon- save their eyes, which are open caverns, forever dripping dollops of ruby bright blood down their painted faces. They speak in a dry whisper, and many are accomplished singers, but that is not why the Tatar are called to Creation or how they are used in the demon city - the blind eyes of the Favor Friends see the web of connections that binds one heart to another, both of good and ill intent. They know how all the pieces may be moved, and so never lack, and forever scheme and plot to bring ruin upon all others of their kind. No Tartar cares for anyone but itself, however, and so they are blind to the presence of their kin, keeping them seperate and weak where they could have been great.

Teodozji

Lineage: Adorjan / Jacint / Zsofika
Title: A Lion Sent Into The World
Author: White Wolf

Thamora

Lineage: Adorjan / Zinnridi / Dilmun
Title: The Salacious Maiden
Author: Sindaen

The Thamorae are the servants and lovers of those who visit of Dilmun. They appear as gorgeous maidens of tanned skin dressed in the finest and most revealing clothes of impossible iridiscent hues that cling to their flawless bodies. Their eyes are bright, broken or flawed emeralds that shine a bit of Vitaris' light into the hearts of man and women alike, reflecting their inner dreams and stealing their memmories of a place outside The Intricate Paradise. The Thamorae can softly whisper dreams and stories not yet told in the ears of their lovers, as they are excellent storytellers, dancers and performers. When summoned alone, the Thamora lust only to return to Dilmun, and take victims with them. They fiercely hate beautiful women and faithful men.

The Theodoracis appear as beautiful maidens made completely from limestone. If they remain perfectly still, in a hearthbeat they begin to grow moss and deep green vines that cling to their bodies. The Theodoracis await next to gardens, ponds and each bridge The Prince Upon The Tower has ever built, so they can strangle lovers who frequent these spots with their vines and their cold mighty stone arms and bosoms. It is said that some of the kindess of Jacint is burned in a Theodoracis' soul when she comes into existence, and they sometimes spare mortal lovers if they feel their love is true. After a Theodoracis has fed on lover¥s blood (demon or otherwise), the vines blossom on pale blue alabaster flowers and her stone skin turns to flesh, albeit for a night only. The Theodoracis can then walk off her pedestal and find a new spot to hunt before she returns to her statuesque form. Also, a potent love philtre can be created using the Theodoracis' moss.

Theon

Lineage: Adorjan / Jacint / Zsofika
Title: The Shining Blind Children
Author: Sindaen

The Theon are depicted as albino human children of impossible pure white skin, mercurial hair and veiled marmorean eyes that strike fear in all those who set their own upon them. They sometimes wear bright woven-light clothes and speak in a polytone language of brass bells which was taught to them by The Sigil¥s Dreamer, shining calamitous light into the hearts of men. Those mortals and animals touched by the light of the Theonis are left forever albino and mad. The Theon are the debris of Vitaris, filtered through Jacint and then to Zsofika. They enjoy stealing people¥s memories depicting beatiful sights, and eventually, if they manage to fool a mortal, to exchange his sight and eyes in Creation for those a demon citizen has in Malfeas, though this lasts only for a while. Demons pay dearly to see the world outisde their prison, if only for a few hours, while the mind of the mortal slowly perishes under the aberrant skyline and impossible features of Malfeas. The Theon are greedy but not clever negotiators and sometimes used as harvesters of visions for powerful demon courtesans. The sight of Creation is considered a delicacy in some Malfean Courts, and Third Circles even beset Theons to steal particular sights from particular people. If summoned, a Theon can be ordered to blind an enemy or steal a beloved sight from him. The marble eyes of a Theon can be made into certain artifacts used for revealing dematerialized spirits and hidden things.

Tluspa

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Roiye
Title: the Forlorn Seekers
Author: Mockery

There are few things more pitiful and wretched than a Tluspa. Their eyes are huge and despairing, and they speak in hushed sobs. Their faces are pale, and their robes are drab and ragged. Some confuse them for ghosts, and something in them is much closer to human than many other demons. But the warmth of a mortal embrace, the only thing that stills their tears and for a moment ends their sorrow, also freezes the marrow in the bones of the hapless mortal, and quickly kills them. It is said that every Tluspa has one mortal they are destined to meet, whose embrace will not grow cold, who will still their tears forever. Those who whisper this legend, however, often disagree whether this means the destruction or salvation of the demon.

Tokhaeroth

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Netraphim
Title: the Flower Whose Scent Is Introspection
Author: Han'ya

Growing wherever there is pure water in Malfeas, and as such rare, the tokhaeroth appear as long-stemmed white flowers whose pollen is grainy and black, like obsidian dust. When inhaled, this pollen provokes serious and calm examination of deeply-held beliefs and desires. It calls forth memories and logic to destroy conviction and purpose. It has no effect on those who have decided that achieving their goal is more important than anything else, even morals or their own lives. Tokhaeroth cannot be destroyed by fire or poison, and grow in wet mud. If their roots are pulled out or their stems cut, they disappear in a cloud of pollen and regrow under the next full moon. They can be summoned by the sobs of a doubt-filled soul in a street during the day.

Tomescu

Lineage: SheWhoLivesInHerName / Munaxes / Octavian
Title: the Clamorous Cloud Arsenal (PowerCombat/Tomescu)
Author: PowerCombat/Tomescu

Tosuir

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Mellamy
Title: The Scourge of Souls
Author: Mockery

Mellamy's purpose is dual: to draw sin out where it exists, and purge it. To this end, she will at times crush one of the myriad shells that circle her neck, and cast the pieces away covered in her blood, and they form into a serpent. The newborn Tosuir searches out the guilty, and with its venom leaves them guilt-ridden, suffering regret for anything and everything that one may have doubts over. Those who commit suicide under such circumstances lose their souls to the Tosuir, and this strengthens them.

Traema

Lineage: Adorjan / Jacint / Zsofika
Title: The Standard Bearers
Author: Sindaen

The Traemas look like heavily built, fierce bald southerners with burning ember eyes. They carry war banners made from bone and argent silk with the sign of the celebration of Zsofika, also called the Signs of the Rotten Star. Kite Flutes atop these banners sing The Aria Of Inevitability. They are fierce protectors of their mother, and will attack and devour anyone who tries to stall her from her prey. If summoned alone, they serve as relays with potent magics that bend the path of arrows and other missiles away from the sorcerer.

Uthiul

Lineage: EbonDragon / Echthros / Kassat
Title: the Vitreous Jailer
Author: Mockery

There is no set shape to an Uthiul, merely a color, a glassy, smoky, and empty grey that neither reflects light nor lets it through. They hide easily, rarely larger than a handful of their substance, and move quickly to engulf anything that catches their eye, or that a sorceror commands them to consume. Their touch is smooth and cool, and in less than a minute, the tiny blob can engulf a large man, and then suddenly collapse back to its regular size. Anything or anyone thus eaten goes Elsewhere, to remain until the Uthiul elects to give up what it has eaten.

Wropirra

Lineage: TheFieldsOfRotAndSorrow / Sil Urxan / Hrulik
Title: The Sweeping Infection
Author: EwindaleMoss

As Hrulik rides The Fields, oftentimes his bandages peel away from their diseased mass and fall to the ground. There, they creep until they find one near to death and wrap themselves around their wounds. The dark putresence within them corrupts and claims their victim's body for use as their own. They cannot bear the touch of a skilled healer and will spit their assorted illnesses like snakes if threatened.

Xoxoti

Lineage: Tharalstrazix / Temozarael / Baashayel
Title: the Feeders Amidst The Fires
Author: Han'ya

The xoxoti scurry amongst the mighty pipework of Temozarael's body, scraping rust, corrosion, detritus, and caked Essence from the mechanisms. Their hands are elegantly designed, with large shovel-like claws and a second set of thin, nimble fingers tipped with claws to scrape and clean their master's veins. Their skin is thick and bumpy, covered in irregular growths and wrinkles. They can endure extremes of heat and cold that would make even a Solar with Resistance charms out the butt shudder, and they eat filth and drink poison. Their lives are short and brutal, spent keeping Temozarael in good working order, and frequently dying horrible messy deaths by frying, freezing, scalding, crushing, ripping, or any other plethora of horrible industrial accidents. When summoned, they are frequently used to brave environmental dangers and retrieve artifacts or repair machinery.

Zcylse

Lineage: Adorjan / Jacint / Zsofika
Title: The Arc Of Ebon And Bone
Author: Sindaen

Those who have witnesed the apparition of a Zcylse speak of her as a small, languid, childlike being with skin made from ebon and bone-white hair. They are reported to turn wheat sprouts, pine needles and rose buds into deadly living arrows. To some, they are the embodiment of the hunt of Zsofika, and the Zcylse lend themselves as bows for those who hunt their own kind, for the Zcylse draws breath only while something beatiful has been turned into a deadly weapon. At will, the Zcylse can take the shape of a magnificent composite bow, made from deep dark ebon and bone, carved with forbidden sigils, who can turn any pointed natural object into a deadly arrow that hungers for the heart-pulse of their victims. When a Zcylse finds a lonely archer who has lost his weapon, she offers herself and if he accepts, she becomes her weapon by day, her lover by night and her guide all the time. She will try to murmur softly into his ears the True Name of Kalmanka, the Arrow Wind, to make his arrows more deadly. The bow shape of each Zcylse is unique, and considered for all purposes a Perfect Weapon.
