Shet'Eru

Shet'Eru is the Dark Sphere from which the Shet'Eru - Demons - originate from. Now without a master, as the lord of Shet'Eru has died, the inhabitants and very world itself have gone mad; anything goes, might makes right. Many races originating from Shet'Eru have fled their ancestral home, scattering amongst the Spheres Beyond to escape their horrific world-womb.

The most common sights in Shet'Eru (yes, *in*, Shet'Eru is a massive cave made of flesh) are pillars of squirming flesh, cancerous floor nodules, cilia, and the Shet'Eru themselves. While many Shet'Eru are violent, barely sane creatures, there are some that are not horrific monsters. The entirety of Shet'Eru evokes a feeling of disgust and terror, compared to the subtle horror that other planes, such as Shu-Azalac, evoke.

## History

Shet'Eru has an odd history. During the reign of its original master, Shet'Eru was without all the grotesqueries and fleshy masses that define it now; though very few records of this era survive, leaving the few descriptions that have survived immeasurably valuable to scholars and historians. Due to the death of Shet'Eru's old liege, the laws that governed the realm have become defunct, leaving its inhabitants without sanity or guidance. Or, in layman's terms, with the death of the divine lawmaker, the people of the kingdom fell into anarchy.

Modern Shet'Eru history is extremely recent, considering that the (un)natural urges of its inhabitants lead them to sadism and destruction, ultimately destroying whatever has been built.

## Shet'Eru-Demons

### Type

Demon

The Demons, or Shet'Eru, are the descendants of the inhabitants of Old Shet'Eru. Cast down an evolutionary path that drove them into forms horrible and terrifying, or sometimes sexually attractive (at least superficially), the Shet'Eru are diverging into new forms constantly. Now, they are living embodiments of the most visceral and vile emotions and desires, from both mortal and immortal. Now, they are the living flesh of evil.

Internally, Shet'Eru have few recognizable organs, many times having many eyes or tongues or other such viscerally disgusting organs inside; the few that are definable as actual hearts or intestines are very good sources for alchemical ingredients, making the Shet'Eru common prey for those hunters who seek to fuel the odd experiments of wizards and alchemists. Their organs and internal anatomy are abstract, not being *real* organs, meaning that they are simply representations of the respective organ. When they eat, they are simply swallowing flesh, not actually consuming it for nutrients; however, it is unknown if the Shet'Eru have functioning (or even abstractly functioning) digestive and excretory tracts - but who would actually want to know that?

The Shet'Eru, externally, are quite strange. Spikes are common, as are exposed muscles, morbid obesity, hairy fly exoskeletons, and many other features are found on the outside of Shet'Eru; some combine all of these traits into one, a monstrous mass of life. Their bodily structure is oftentimes very strange, some like flying bladders, yet some resemble shapes native to planets and Spheres like Crux, such as Earth's dogs and Crux's Dahari.

Shet'Eru are naturally magical, and have the ability to cast spells inherently.
