Lamashtu (sometimes known as the demon, Lamashtu among other aliases) is the second of two main characters the Eyoho Verse - he is a demon and was the universe's main villain for many years until recently where he has established himself as an anti-hero of sorts, his current incarnation is inspired by Castiel from the TV show Supernatural "but with a twist" and, in universe, is portrayed by Misha Collins.

Lamashtu is almost always seen in some sort of vessel however has projected his true form as a shadow on walls and such before, he does this because if humans even caught a small glimpse of his true form they would go insane and even die from shock in some cases.

## Characteristics and Personality

Originally a confident, arrogant, somewhat narcissistic and just out-right villainous character, Lamashtu would often torment people just for a kick and was known for scheming, he also liked to keep a low profile and would sometimes kill those who found about him with little sense of morality.

As The Redguard Incarnation, he kept some of these traits however they would be turned down considerably however he showed little interest in the people of Tamriel and had a blatant disregard for safety as long as the job he was tasked with was completed, this gave him quite a bad reputation in The Multiverse however Lamashtu made it clear that he didn't care what others thought of him as he continued his antics.

Ever since his first in universe appearance in Lamashtu: Daemonium and subsequent exile from the underworld in that story, his personality slowly changed and his mindset changed from one of vengeance to one of "changing sides" thanks to a spirit guide called Constance King - he initially expressed almost no emotion towards humans, and had little room for feelings however as time went on and more time was spent dealing with Constance's contracts (one of which included trying to reconcile with his old enemy Shane) he starts to show a liking to humans and even showed tiny bits of emotion from time to time.

Whilst still very naïve to the way humans live, meaning he can't blend in that well in social situations or hold many conversations (unless its about a case) he has built an alliance with Shane (sometimes begrudgingly depending on the task) and the two have seemingly reconciled like Constance wanted them too, this is put down to Lamashtu's "fight to survive" mentality which he gained upon being exiled from the underworld however this leads to him being abrupt and even rude sometimes due to the lack of a filter he has, this is again down to his lack of "people skills" as he calls it.

In "The Bells of Saint Mary's Tower" Lamashtu showed grievance for the first time as he visibly got emotional when dealing with Constance's death showing how far he truly has come as he showed guilt and sadness however when he is in combat, his lack of empathy in a fight situation and sometimes downright brutality and "fight to survive" mentality can still come through.

## Powers and Abilities

* Hidden blade - Lamashtu's most effective weapon in close combat, he is shown to always hide a blade up one of his sleeves in case he needs to defend himself.
* Portal making - Lamashtu can create portals allowing him to travel from one place to another.
* Possession - When in need of a disguise, or a temporary vessel, Lamashtu can temporarily possess humans however this ability is rarely used.
* Pyrokinesis – Lamashtu has demonstrated this ability many times, despite it being one of his best known abilities, it is quite recent with the Redguard Incarnation being the first to actually use it however, in his recent incarnation, it is shown that he has somewhat mastered it and it can not just be used as a projectile, he can use this power to make flaming objects, launch streams of fire at people and also, in extreme circumstances, use his power to cause explosions.
* Regeneration - Whilst on the verge of death, Lamashtu has the ability to mend all wounds incurred to himself and his vessel however this usually means he will end up with a new vessel effectively killing the old vessel in the change - Non fatal wounds won't make this change happen but injuries will heal at a quicker rate compared to a humans healing process.
* Superhuman strength and durability - It is believed Lamashtu's strength is greater than a humans as he can throw people and other beings across rooms and can take alot of damage and keep fighting.
* Vast knowledge - Being a demon, Lamashtu has knowledge of most supernatural creatures and beings.
* Walking on Holy ground - Through the interactions the demon has had with Constance King (his spirit guide), Lamashtu once entered Lincoln Cathedral but his powers and abilities we're somewhat nullified, despite this: Lamashtu is, so far, the only demon able to walk on Holy ground.

## Weaknesses

* Banishing spells - If anyone uses a banishing spell on Lamashtu, he (like most demons) would be banished back to the Underworld or a location far away from where they were when the spell was completed.
* Holy water - Can hinder Lamashtu's power and be painful but it isn't fatal to the demon.
* Iron - Iron can render Lamashtu powerless should he come into contact with any form of it, it may even be fatal to the demon but this is unconfirmed.

## Pre-Eyoho Verse (History)

### The Haunting (YouTube Series by markapsolon) (2011-2012)

It is unknown where abouts Lamashtu originated however people were made of aware of his existence through several tapes of found footage uploaded to YouTube by at first a man named Mark Apsolon who was documenting the haunting in his house.

By 2012, this haunting became way more sinister as the supposed "little girl ghost" called Madeline was acting less like a little girl and more unnatural and eratic - there was even a stand off between the girl ghost and another unknown spirit in a tape that was seemingly deleted, after opening a strange bottle: Mark discovered The Lamashtu Rite cult however this enraged the ghost girl leading to more unnatural occurances and Mark to believe that it was Lamashtu himself now in control of the ghost girl.

Mark then tried to move house but this did not work as he was only followed by the spirits and the demon, it was during this time Lamashtu gave Madeline control of her body back but under his influence as Lamashtu took on his own form as either a black shadow figure or a version of Madeline with a rabbit mask over his face with Mark saying "I think its like Lamashtu is part of the little Madeline" Mark proceeded to create a full scale paranormal investigation to uncover more about the demon and his cult and found himself in a woodland area somewhere in the United States called Devil's Moss where Lamashtu is thought to have originated from where he recorded many strange things - it is also believed Lamashtu sent Madeline to intervene in the investigation causing many to speculate that the two were connected however a motive remained a mystery with Mark speculating Lamashtu was so enraged by Mark's findings that he wanted to bring about a personal apocalypse onto Mark.

The final tape, Tape 42, was released in December 2012 however in the description of the video it is implied that Mark disappeared with the description saying "The following video was found early this morning on 21-12-12 at the residence of ----------------------. We are posting the contents as instructed. Please be advised there are no known cause for the paranormal activity seen on this tape. No body has been recovered." In the video a frantic Mark can be seen whilst the spirit of Madeline torments him and strange noises can be heard - he tries to leave but is met with a noise resembling an explosion causing his ears to ring and his vision to go funny, he then collapses seemingly dying and as the camera still rolls the ghost with the bunny mask looks down on him as the video ends with Lamashtu seemingly making it clear that he had achieved his goal, for a while it was unclear what had happened after the camera stopped rolling.

### First pre-Eyoho verse appearances (2013-2015)

Sometime in early 2013, Mark seemingly re-emerged despite many people speculating that Lamashtu had killed him as part of the demon's sick game, he re-surfaced in the United Kingdom after discovering a young Shane had discovered the tapes of what was now being called "The Haunting" and was questioning its authenticity with some school friends.

Mark then found Shane and told him that the videos were staged and not to believe what was being said in the videos after more strange encounters between Mark and the young Shane it was revealed that Shane hadn't been talking to Mark at all but Lamashtu who was using Mark's body as a vessel as a trophy, during this time, Lamashtu developed an arrogant and narcissistic personality and would often use the ghosts from "The Haunting" to do his dirty work for him, despite this and sometimes attempting to do so he never wanted to kill the young Shane and instead chose to mentally torment him instead which he found "much more fun."

After causing more chaos using Mark as a vessel, Lamashtu once again travelled to the United States to track down Mark's girlfriend who hadn't be seen since early 2012, he was able to do so extremely quickly and seemingly wounded her, he disposed of the evidence by taking her to Devil's Moss where she was left to be mauled by Bloodhounds (a version of Hellhounds) - shadow-esque dogs from folklore that dispose of the presence of demons by consuming or absorbing items left and taking it back to hell this can include humans in extreme cases.

By 2015, Lamashtu's Mark vessel had started to "expire" which annoyed the demon who soon found himself the victim of a hunt as an anonymous demon hunter started to hunt the demon, in another sadistic game he once again decided to get the young Shane involved inadvertently by hiding out in Shane's school pretending to need Shane's help however this backfired as the demon hunter followed Lamashtu's "scent" and butchered his main minion Madeline - this caused Lamashtu to try and escape but due to his vessel almost melting at this point he couldn't and was seemingly killed by the hunter after the hunter released Lamashtu from his vessel by force feeding the vessel large quantities of salt - the hunter was later revealed to be an unnamed archangel.

### Life without a Vessel (2015-2018)

This encounter left Lamashtu without a host/vessel and no form making him extremely weak and nothing more than a dark shadow figure like in The Haunting, he couldn't turn back into his real form either as that wasn't possible in the land of the living.

In late 2015, Shane tried to stop Lamashtu from finding a new vessel but ultimately failed as a student was the one that became Lamashtu's new vessel however unlike the "Mark incarnation" the vessel fought back as they were a living person and was able to take control back from the demon at various times, a side effect of this possession was Lamashtu was able to gain knowledge of the Earth and how humans interact with each other making him fit in better at first he didn't like this but soon welcomed it after the young Shane mockingly said to him "That's what you get for picking on the smart kids" which Lamashtu replied "That's why I didn't choose you, plus where would the fun be in that?"

Lamashtu found himself alot more reserved during this time and proceeded to simply lie dormant in his vessel until an opportunity to cause chaos, this would come in 2016 at the school's prom party in which Lamashtu decided to take control of his vessel and caused many strange goings on (eg: hypnotising several students to trash the venue or even poisoning someone's food) out of sheer amusement which prompted Shane to film the events almost mirror imaging The Haunting which caused Lamashtu to finally take full control and finally, after several years, Lamashtu found himself at full power, it was during this party he used his fire abilities for the first time and attacked a group of students outside however he left them unharmed.

At the end of the night, everyone had pretty much gone home apart from Shane and a few others - taking advantage of the situation Lamashtu was able to free himself from his vessel for the first time in years and was found on the roof of the building by Shane in a new look which resembled the student vessel he had been in control of but with a long purple coat and a purple chinese dragon-esque mask covering the face stating to Shane that he had "been reborn and had no need of a vessel anymore" he then proceeded to kill his old vessel by throwing them off the roof in a remorseless way before disappearing.

Lamashtu was then not seen for almost a whole year but in the summer of 2017, he re-emerged during Shane's time at college - Shane had been anticipating his comeback, this time though Lamashtu stated that he could finally kill Shane and attempted to do so using various methods, he was stopped by Shane's former friend Kasuti, a traveller of the multiverse who had a human form but also several species from the world of Tamriel she could transform into, this overwhelmed the demon who was defeated.

Taking this as "inspiration" the once again formless Lamashtu used Kasuti as a vessel to try and get to Shane, this was after a big falling out between the two, Lamashtu showed off his manipulative side by showing up every so often to get Shane's attention, he proceeded to play tricks on him for the rest of that day until Shane confronted the demon in the Cornhill district of Lincoln City stating that he knew it was Lamashtu all along which confused the demon who wanted to know how Shane knew with Shane walking off saying "You didn't get her quite right" Lamashtu then disappeared.

He would later re-appear in spring 2018 surprisingly offering assistance to Shane following a series of portals opening, on the other side was the year 2016 and a group of vloggers sleeping under a bridge, it was discovered that during their sleep all but one had been possessed by ghosts after they used an Ouija Board at the supposed haunted bridge dubbed "Suicide Bridge" their supposed only aim was to kill the person who had not been possessed after they had been cut by an unknown source causing their blood to fall on the board, during the video Shane found on YouTube the possessed vloggers walk off screen leading to the events of this encounter.

Using their combined knowledge of these events, Shane and Lamashtu were able to send the possessed vloggers back to 2016 but were sucked into the portal and because of Lamashtu's presence, the spirits rose up and a fight broke out but Lamashtu was able to remove the spirits from the possessed people blaming the bridge's history for causing the distress and eratic behaviour of the spirits there, the portal back to the present then began to close and whilst Shane escaped back to present day - Lamashtu had the portal close on him causing him to be misplaced, it was later revealed that Lamashtu had known of the incident for a while, with some saying he saw it play out back in 2016 (this was never confirmed), so used this knowledge to try and get one over on Shane to make him think Lamashtu had changed.

### The Redguard Incarnation and being Stranded on Tamriel

This is the first "in universe" incarnation however it is in this section as no official writing featuring this incarnation was ever made however what is known is that Sacha Dhawan (who played The Master in Doctor Who around this time) would have portrayed this version in universe.

Following this encounter in Spring 2018, Lamashtu found himself in Tamriel where he took another vessel, this time of a redguard - this incarnation was unlike his two predecessors as Lamashtu was taken back by all the "bad in this world" and decided to hunt those who he deemed "guilty" of anything, this landed him in several scrapes with nobility and other high ranked people wherever he visited however this didn't stop him from his seemingly endless quest in this new land he found himself in.

Around a year later, due to Shane uncovering the existence of the multiverse - a version of Shane was created on Tamriel, due to the multiverse, causing Lamashtu to abandon his hunt of the guilty and change targets, this version of Shane knew about his counter part's feud with Lamashtu and had a stronger dislike of the demon than his counterpart, the two's feud centered around The Drunken Hound tavern which annoyed many of the patrons, after a while however their feud died down with the two of them realizing that it was never going to end well for either of them.

Lamashtu's time at the Drunken Hound also saw him encounter Evorio of Akavir and Kyra Leith on a regular basis, on one occasion he tried to take out Kyra but failed and was forced to leave, there was also another occasion where Evorio began to conspire that Shane and Lamashtu was the same person, the conspiracy was proven false shortly after during a time when the two taunted each other whilst Fenris Bade was suffering hallucinations of his late wife and was bed bound.

A few months later, Lamashtu discovered that the Tamriel version of Shane had left The Drunken Hound and with him likely to not come back following an encounter with his former friend Kasuti after she planned to expell him from the multiverse but this failed after Shane did it to her first - Lamashtu decided to keep visiting Tamriel on a semi-regularly however he never got into any major events and soon "got bored of the place."

He appeared at The Drunken Hound once more after these visits, surprisingly aiding Fenris Bade and Kyra Leith, at first it seemed Lamashtu would attack Fenris due to the owner's recent antics surrounding the tavern (eg: constantly moving locations) however he proceeded to incinerate a Wayrest guard much to the anger of Fenris Bade who decided to shout in rage at Lamashtu - Lamashtu shrugged it off and picked up the guard's body and left The Drunken Hound with it, he was never seen by the people of The Drunken Hound again as he found another portal shortly after disposing of the body which he believe would lead him back to Lincoln City, he was wrong as he entered the portal his memories became fuzzy and he blacked out, he woke up in Hell and found his former boss waiting for him who told him it was time for him to "change his face and start again."

## Eyoho Verse Timeline

All of what's below all occurs in universe canon and starts in the year 2020 (despite Lamashtu: Daemonium being released in 2019 - see "Trivia" section for more details)

## Episodes

### Lamashtu: Daemonium

His first official appearance in universe canon, he had already changed from The Redguard Incarnation into the Misha Collins incarnation (later called The Daemonium incarnation) before this story took place, it is believed that Lamashtu's superiors used their power to change his vessel at will and bring him to the underworld however when he first appears he is at Devil's Moss Forest in the USA and is conducting a ceremony with his cult, The Lamashtu Rite, this is believed to be right at the start of his personal timeline.

Upon arriving back in the Underworld (or Hell as its called in the story) Lamashtu is punished for his destructive ways from before and was forced relive the events of "The Haunting" however Lamashtu still had some of his memories from his original timeline as his boss believed it would drive him insane like many others he has encountered, instead he used this knowledge and personally recruited the Longacre family by possessing one of them over the course of a period of time, Sophia was her name, sending her into a mindless slave of the demon, she also lost the ability to speak proper sentences and instead spoke in one or two word sentences accompanied by strange screams and growls.

This caught the attention of Madeline Longacre (the Madeline that helped Lamashtu carry out the events of The Haunting before) who, in order to save her sister, made a deal with Lamashtu to give Sophia her sanity back - Lamashtu in return wanted the meeting between himself and the sisters to be covered up and when that part of the deal wasn't met, he returned to the house and burnt it to the ground, he then revived Madeline and Sophia to serve as his minions whilst leaving their father, Henry, to die in the burning rubble.

The events of The Haunting YouTube series then occur with Lamashtu switching vessels from his new one to the Madeline with bunny mask vessel from 2012 - Mark went insane and died like before but this time Lamashtu attempted to double cross his possessed minions and burn the house down this, in essence, covering up the entire Haunting story which the minions rejected this lead to Lamashtu's boss, revealed to be The Devil or at least a demon going by that name as "code names" were a common practice used to protect identity during "official business" taking over Madeline and Sophia himself and assaulting Lamashtu for treachery, he then orders the Longacres to bring him Lamashtu, which they do and Lamashtu is subsequently exiled for his actions, upon being exiled, Lamashtu lashed out and seemingly lost all hope in the world and vowed vengeance against his boss in brutal fashion however Lamashtu's boss proceeded to try and have Madeline and Sophia assassinate Lamashtu, this backfired and Lamashtu killed them brutally in a car chase even going as far as running down Sophia calling her "Roadkill" as he reviewed his handy work - during this time he met a spirit by the name of Constance in the grounds of Lincoln Cathedral, Constance stated she has a dark past and senses the same in Lamashtu and would like to help him see the beauty of the universe which Lamashtu declined initially however when she stated that she had work for him that could restore his honour as she believes he has many regrets in life he unwillingly accepted.

### 2.02: Anarchy

The first task for Lamashtu was to reconcile with his enemy Shane, Lamashtu believed this to be impossible and declined to carry it out at first however Constance said that "there's also something nasty out there too" which peaked the demon's interest, in the episode he would save Shane from a Djinn after engulfing it in holy fire using a molotov cocktail, he then believed it to be a Demon-Djinn hybrid.

### 2.03: The Midnight Bride

Whilst on the mission to reconcile with Shane, Lamashtu would face his first alien when he aided Shane in the capture of a Cell 114 alien sleeper agent named Charly, he was the first to encounter the alien side of Charly as he rammed into her using a black SUV whilst trying to save a passer by from getting killed however he wouldn't finish the job and would leave the scene quickly causing the passer by to die at the hands of the agent regardless.

Upon arriving at Belton House, where the main matter was happening, Lamashtu and Shane teamed up for the first time (or be it begrudgingly) to bring down Charly for good and in the ensuing struggle, Shane would overwhelm and kill Charly by directing the houses electricity supply into her protective forcefield.

### 2.04: Wendigo

Lamashtu also helped contain a viral outbreak which caused many people to become Wendigo's (a hairy humanoid creature that does nothing but eat) this was the result of a science experiment gone wrong however the two managed to stop the person responsible, a scientist called Matthew Thorn - it was during this time Lamashtu saved someone for the first time however he didn't like it as his "people skills are rusty." Shane didn't trust Lamashtu during these encounters but was impressed with what he saw signifying the two were still not on good terms.

### From the Vault Ep3: The Blood Hunter

Sometime in 2021, Lamashtu took a case from Constance after a strange rift opened in Lincoln County Hospital - this was the work of a demon called Blackout, a bounty hunter-esque demon, who Lamashtu seemingly knew from his days in hell, the two have a strong dislike for each other and both had a common goal - at the same time, a shadow like entity entered the hospital through the rift and posseses a nurse called Egilea deeming her the perfect host, this starts a transformation process where the nurse becomes almost zombie like before finally transforming into a supernatural being called Lamia - Blackout wanted to kill her so he can get money from it as the bounty on her head is huge as people have tried and failed to kill her this makes Lamashtu's mission by Constance clear - Protect her however following a battle in a corridor Blackout is killed by Lamia who rips his throat out following this she lunges at Lamashtu, betraying his trust, but the demon is ready he tries to stab her with a hidden blade but when that doesn't work he launches a stream of fire at her either killing her or banishing her, Lamia's fate is unknown as is whether she was the only "Lamia" out there.

### A Tale From Tamriel

We would then not see Lamashtu until April 2022 when he was summoned by Tirnel, the observer of the multiverse, who requested his help which would see him go to Tamriel to aid Shane and Tamriel's version of Evorio of Akavir (neither he or Lamashtu liked each other) - Lamashtu initially refused any part of the offer but his hand was forced after Tirnel was possessed by a mysterious creature

In Tamriel, Lamashtu (curiously still in his Daemonium vessel) and the others encountered a pack of Skinwalkers disguised as former Drunken Hound patrons - they were beaten by the trio as well as an intervening Tirnel, the reason was then revealed for why Lamashtu was being so cynical and dismissive of helping out as he may have had something to do with how the Skinwalkers got to Tamriel in the first place as he allegedly hunted most of them on Earth causing them to go extinct causing the rest of them to seek a new home, they are defeated however when Lamashtu uses his Pyrokinesis to cause an explosion killing most of the Skinwalker pack, the rest are soon dispatched of.

Following the adventure, he was sent back to where he was summoned from by Tirnel.

### Lamashtu: The Bells of Saint Mary's Tower

In May 2022, Lamashtu was tasked to deal with a restless spirit of a nun who had been terrorizing Lincoln Cathedral by his overseer Constance, the investigation however became strange as things took a dark and twisted turn, with many other spirits being wary of the demon's presence, when the nun was revealed to be nothing more than a spirit using the nun's corpse as a vessel, it was quickly banished by Constance however who had set Lamashtu up in fear that he was becoming too human, a struggle ensued in which Constance repeatedly reminded him that she didn't want to kill him but "show him mercy."

Lamashtu however didn't see it this way and projected an image of his true form onto the wall of the Cathedral, whilst Constance was distracted he took advantage and badly wounded her with his fire powers, he repeated to her that he didn't want to kill her but show her mercy however he actually followed through with this promise taking her up to her post to watch the sunrise over Lincoln City, Constance then proceeded to seemingly die and ascended to heaven where she could finally rest with Lamashtu thanking her for showing him a new way of life, he then proceeded to leave the Cathedral grounds and walk into the crowds of Lincoln City before disappearing.

### 4.04: The Demon That Walked Amongst Man

In a flashback, we see Lamashtu work with Shane to try and banish Madeline Longacre from Lincoln Castle after she comes to collect the demon in order to pay his debt to The Underworld, Lamashtu initially refuses however when he and Shane get cornered in the castle gift shop, Lamashtu selflessly volunteers to go with her, he soon wakes up in a dungeon and tied to a chair, it is here he gets several visitors including Knight of Hell Abaddon and even Constance King - Abaddon questions whether Lamashtu used to "actually be something" but declares that he isn't anymore.

Madeline soon re-enters and declares that the trial is about to start, it is here that Lamashtu is dragged out forcefully into a "court room" packed with Demons and sees Abaddon sat in the judge's seat, this makes Lamashtu incredibly angry - during the trial, Abaddon proceeds to place many charges on Lamashtu, such as: "Entering the Multiverse without permission", "Disobeying Orders" and above all "A Traitor" whilst claiming that justice will be swift as Abaddon calls forward The Witnesses, ghosts who died of supernatural causes, and even summons a demon called The Executioner to end the trial by killing Lamashtu however Constance (Lamashtu's former spirit guide) emerges from the crowd and starts fighting with The Executioner causing Abbadon to become angry however both he and The Witnesses seem happy when Constance is killed by The Executioner as Lamashtu jumps into the fight, his power restored as he banishes The Witnesses, this confuses Abbadon whilst Lamashtu declares that Constance owed him a favor, he then kills The Executioner and proceeds to launch a flaming sword at Abbadon, who disappears just in time as the flaming sword lodges itself in the judge's chair, the audience applauds as the burning chair is extinguished, The Executioner's body is removed from the courtroom, Constance's body is taken away too, Lamashtu stands there and looks at the audience who are now silent, he puts his hands together in front of him and bows before them. He then walks off the stage and leaves the courtroom, leaving the audience stunned at what just happened.

On the way, seemingly back to his cell, Lamashtu is approached by Madeline who screams at him that he is still sentenced to death and won't ever escape whilst she's around however, using a demon blood soaked hidden blade, Lamashtu stabs Madeline who collapses to the floor and seemingly dies - a newly power restored Lamashtu then proceeds to open a portal using a spell he learnt from Constance and walks through it, ending back up in Lincoln City however he finds himself in a graveyard where The Legion awaits him, without hesitation Lamashtu launches himself at the being however The Legion grabs Lamashtu by the head and starts a flashback saying "Remember how we met..." - The flashback shows the festive season of the year 2021, Constance sends Lamashtu through the multiverse (which had been slightly destroyed by Shane following Kasuti's banishment to it) in an attempt to salvage some artefacts, during this time he encountered many beings from vampires to even other demons that were hiding out in what was left of the multiverse in order to avoid what they believe was the destruction of the universe - in another flashback, Lamashtu travelled to a town infested with the undead and encountered a different looking Kasuti however this turned out not to be her but "The Legion" which was revealed to be many souls lost in the multiverse combined into one being trying to blend in with its surrounding it states it has no idea how it got here but it wishes to escape, despite its wishes Lamashtu defeats The Legion easily when it becomes aggressive as the flashback ends.

Lamashtu then starts to resist the mind reading being done by The Legion and then attacks The Legion but fails as the being begins to show Lamashtu "visions of the future" where he teams with Shane and the Winchesters, who are from another world, to take on The Legion and its plan of vengeance along with all the many ways The Legion could kill them all whilst also destroying the universe if it wasn't stopped, Lamashtu goes to punch the being but it disappears and the demon smashes his hand, inadvertently, into a nearby gravestone - just as he walks off he notices The Legion has written something in blood on a nearby fence and it says "I'll find you again" - The Legion is now gone however Lamashtu finds himself being confronted by The Winchesters, who mistake him for the angel Castiel (simply due to Lamashtu looking identical to Castiel) - Sam and Dean hug a visibly confused Lamashtu and tell him they need his help.

### 4.05: Wanderers of the Multiverse

Lamashtu is one of many statues present when a Dryad, under orders from Tirnel Gilorndes, assists Shane in trying to find more about both The Legion and a mysterious communication that Tirnel received through the multiverse.

After Shane's trip around Europe, he ends up in the same graveyard where Sam, Dean and Lamashtu are still talking about the Legion and the concept of the multiverse, Lamashtu notices Shane come through the portal and walks at a hurried pace over to him and shakes his hand before Shane asks if he's ready for what lies ahead to which Lamashtu nods, Shane then proceeds to show off the Lance of Akavir to which Lamashtu believes it could be their only chance against The Legion.

The four of them soon find a strange list of names in an abandoned foundry in one of the city's industrial estates, Sam reads as Dean, Shane and Lamashtu look at the document however it is clear that something enters the room behind them as the smell of blood fills the air once again, all four men turn around to see Susie Lavoie, unmasked, clapping slowly as she leans on a door frame - the four men look slightly alarmed that their exit from the room has been cut off.

### 4.06: Realm of the Legion

Lamashtu, along with Dean Winchester, is tasked by The Legion to take part in a "hunt" and in order to escape they must activate several generators scattered at random around The Realm that the Legion resides in, along the way Lamashtu and Dean encounter the Hunters of The Realm and, whilst Dean deals with the generators and makes the occasional sarcastic quip (despite them being in a very dangerous location that could trap them there at any moment) Lamashtu attempts to communicate with two of the three killers (The Nurse and The Huntress) in order to get to know their individual stories which in turn confuses the former and angers the latter after Dean and Lamashtu infiltrated The Huntress' house in the Red Forest and Lamashtu read up on some folklore surrounding her, as Dean activates the second generator, a fight ensues between the demon and The Huntress which ends with Lamashtu swinging the killers own axe at her (the head of which has been engulfed in flames by his Pyrokinesis) causing her to retreat into the forest.

The pair also encounter The Onryo, a ghost from Japanese film, and the pair are immediately overpowered by the ghost however it is soon defeated when a mysterious person (later revealed to be Loki) throws a molotov cocktail at the television the spirit came from thus effectively making it somewhat mortal as it properly materialized, Lamashtu then seemingly killed the spirit by plunging a flaming fist into The Onryo's chest - following this and an encounter with the human killer group that also goes by the name of The Legion (lead by Frank Morrison) the pair pass The Legion's test of surviving a hunt when the mysterious man returns to activate the final generator whilst Dean and Lamashtu have their encounter with The Legion group, the two are then begrudgingly sent back to Lincoln City as part of the deal made with The Legion.

### 4.07: The Joker in the Pack

Lamashtu (along with Shane and The Winchesters) meet Loki in a hotel bar, it is here the notorious Trickster tells them how he got involved in The Legion's events (from his point of view) and also tells them that he was the one that made the Lance of Akavir disappear when the four encountered Susie Lavoie in an old foundry so she wouldn't suspect anything and he disappears shortly after, Shane decides that the best move would be for the four of them to go to the Torchwood: Lincoln City base however Lamashtu doesn't want to go and wishes to instead confront The Legion saying that he wants to know what makes it tick before heading off to do just that, standing idlily on the Brayford Waterfront waiting for something to happen.

Lamashtu's attempts to not look like a weirdo as he just stands around awaiting for literally anything at this point fail as someone approaches him and asks if everything is alright. He answers yes and they continue past - another passerby stops next to him and says hello - Lamashtu is unsure how to reply and just awkwardly nods however he soon shows his discomfort as he looks at the sky however a survival knife comes from nowhere and lands at his feet - Lamashtu looks to see Julie standing there, she berates the demon for him and Dean coming to The Realm and feels personally insulted that they escaped, the two have a shouting match which escalates when Julie vows to kill Lamashtu only for the demon to reply that he is a demon and is already dead, he then beckons at Julie to fight him if she thinks she can win - Julie seems to think for a moment before she focuses and begins to frenzy, she charges at the demon and gets several hits in however Lamashtu dodges and tries to grab her however Julie uses her speed and strength to escape and then punches the demon hard in the face. She then goes in for a kick however he blocks it easily and strikes her in the stomach, causing her to double over and drop her weapon, after the brief struggle however Loki appears from nowhere (still in the same suit and hat as before) and grabs Julie from behind, he tips his hat to Lamashtu before unleashing a scathing rant at Julie who is soon thrown, by Loki, into a portal back to The Realm - both Lamashtu and Loki then have their first one on one encounter with each other before Susie Lavoie appears and shows Loki how he truly is involved in The Legion's plan.

Following this, and now with Loki's memory fully restored and the truth revealed, Lamashtu grabs Susie from behind as Loki gruffly rants at the restrained Susie who is clearly now out of her depth; Loki then threatens to destroy her and then The Legion as that's the only reason why Frank hasn't exiled her from the group back home, Loki aggressively grabs Susie's knife out of her own hands and stabs her in the stomach causing her to gasp and bleed all over the floor - Loki laughs and continues to stab her until finally stabbing her in rage, Lamashtu looks on horrified and throws the Trickster off and restraining him as Shane, Sam and Dean arrive on scene however these events played into The Legion's hands as many worlds and many people seemingly disintegrate into nothing as Shane and Lamashtu look on as The Legion unmasks to reveal a new Kasuti form.

### 4.08: The Lost

Shane and Lamashtu are now on their own against The Legion and try to fight it straight away but the being easily overpowers both of them and, once again, disappears - the two debate how they could even beat The Legion however as they do, Shane gets an alert on his phone that someone is in the base and both he and Lamashtu sprint into the city centre however The Legion can be seen walking away as the underground base blows up from within, Shane drops to his knees in defeat as Lamashtu just looks on in shock as rubble flies across the street as a massive crater is now visible where the base once was along with several dead bodies of many random passers by however amongst the rubble, Shane notices the case that contains the Lance of Akavir (along with several important classified files which are also retrieved) - he gets Lamashtu to open it and he retrieves the weapon, Shane nods at Lamashtu and he closes the case and the two head for the castle to make their final stand against The Legion.

Shane and Lamashtu discuss their next move in a hotel cafe with the Lance in its special case, Shane states that he has been all over Europe to get all this to work however seeing how easy The Legion dealt with all their allies, he is less enthusiastic about standing up to it however he makes a deal with the being: Wager their universe in combat and if they win The Legion must reset the multiverse and leave Susie Lavoie AND return everyone back to their original timelines, whilst also stating that The Legion can have this version of Earth should it win, The Legion accepts.

Shane and Lamashtu soon arrive at Lincoln Castle, Lamashtu gives a motivational speech as The Legion emerges at the end of the main walkway which runs through the middle of the ancient structure, the fight ensues and initially the pair work well together however The Legion starts overpowering them once again, the fight spills up into the castle walls where Shane (despite his fear of heights) is able to knock out The Legion and send it over the protective fencing to the grass below, even this doesn't keep The Legion down as it once again reanimates - it lectures the two on the multiverse before using its powers to start absorbing the world around them, as everything looks bleak however The Legion's monologue is cut short by someone coming up from behind and stabbing The Legion's Kasuti form through the heart with the Lance of Akavir.

The being is surprised to see the supposedly dead Loki, standing there, he tips his hat in greeting before he raises the Lance above his head and pierces The Legion through the chest with it causing it to explode into pieces, a white light then engulfs everything and after a huge "Boom" sound which resets the multiverse thus returning everyone to their original locations before everything happened, except for Shane who wakes up in the castle grounds shortly after.

## Lincoln City Episodes

### 1.03 Possessed by Darkness

### 1.07 The Gateway

In his first appearance in the Lincoln City series, Lamashtu saves Shane from a possessed Fiona when it is revealed that he has managed to come through the Gateway in Bradley Woods. As the possessed Fiona circles Shane, her demeanor changes from angry to sinister, and her voice becomes distorted. Shane pleads with her to fight the possession, assuring her of her strength, but the dark force within Fiona seems to grow stronger.

With a sinister smile on her face, the possessed Fiona reaches out to Shane, her hand moving towards his neck. She whispers eerie words, "Soon my little lamb..." but before she can harm him, she quickly withdraws her hands as a bright light envelops her body. Fiona disappears, leaving behind her silver blade, and Shane looks up to see a rough-looking Lamashtu standing there - Lamashtu's usual emotional range seems diminished, his voice taking on a monotone and robotic quality, indicating his prolonged stay in the Underworld. Without much emotion, Lamashtu addresses Shane, stating that they need to leave quickly because others will be coming. He creates a portal, and both he and Shane step through it, leaving Bradley Woods behind.

Shane glances back and notices a dark hooded figure watching them from afar, suggesting that someone is on their trail whilst, in Lincoln City, a possessed Fiona wanders aimlessly through the streets, which is unusual for a spirit guide. Her senses seem dulled as she is lost in a daze. However, she is suddenly approached by a woman with a shopping basket, who turns out to be Lamashtu's former apprentice, the demon Lyleila.

### 1.08 A City of Shadows

Lamashtu's portal doesn't initially take them back to Lincoln City but instead a dense forest, further away than intended, Lamashtu's condition soon deteriorates rapidly following his return. He collapses, coughing up blood, and falls into a comatose state. Shane's concern and confusion show a more compassionate side of his character.

As Lamashtu regains consciousness, he appears disoriented and confused about what happened to him. Shane helps him to his feet, and Lamashtu opens a portal to return to Lincoln City, showing his ability to manipulate portals. However, he seems different, and Shane notices that something is off about him. Lamashtu's demeanor is described as "spaced out," and he appears distant and unresponsive - Shane questions Lamashtu about his knowledge of Lyleila, revealing that she was once Lamashtu's apprentice. Lamashtu's memories of her are somewhat vague, and he seems to have mixed feelings about her. He reflects on his past interactions with Lyleila and hints at a complicated dynamic between them.

Lamashtu's behavior becomes increasingly erratic as they continue their journey. He enters a trance-like state, staring blankly at something in the distance, which worries Shane. This suggests that Lamashtu may be struggling with inner turmoil or trauma from his past experiences. He becomes dismissive when Shane tries to engage him in conversation about Lyleila - when a possessed Fiona appears before them, Lamashtu's confusion deepens as he seems disoriented. Fiona questions Lamashtu about his actions and his return, but he remains vague and cryptic, claiming that he was "broken." This indicates that Lamashtu has undergone significant suffering and trauma during his time away.

As Fiona becomes more aggressive and threatens Shane, Lamashtu's reactions are subdued. He seems overwhelmed and unable to effectively confront Fiona's possession. When Fiona mentions Lamashtu's past betrayal and his change of behavior, Lamashtu's past mistakes and the consequences of his actions become evident. He appears regretful and haunted by his decisions and doesn't choose to attack like he normally would, this is also the first meeting between Fiona and Lamashtu which leaves a bad impression on the demon.

Lamashtu's vulnerability and suffering are emphasized as he experiences vivid flashbacks of his torture in the Underworld when confronted by Lyleila during a fight against a pair of Daeva who were summoned as assassins to kill Lamashtu. These memories haunt him, making him fearful and hesitant as he even retreats from a fight at one point leaving Shane to fend for himself as Lamashtu hides away, he is soon found by Fiona who has broken free of the possession that had clouded her mind and judgment, she offers her assistance but the demon is skeptical and reluctantly agrees - they soon find a dark altar that Lyleila used to summon the Daeva prompting the pair to destroy it which causes the shadow creatures to turn on Lyleila and kill her, they too are soon vanquished by sunlight as night becomes day.

As Fiona saves Shane and takes him to hospital due to his injuries, Lamashtu stands over a dying Lyleila in the alleyway where she landed, a mixture of emotions playing across his features – a blend of pity, regret, and a hint of triumph - Lyleila remains still as the demon watches her bleed out but finally, after a moment or so she opens her eyes and smiles back at Lamashtu declaring that he wins before dying, Lamashtu takes a moment to stare down at her before he disposes of her body by torching it with his Pyrokinesis.

He then visits Shane in hospital briefly and tells him about the Daeva and also apologizes for retreating during the initial fight with Lyleila, he soon walks out of the hospital room.

### 2.03 La Noche

Simultaneously, Shane navigates the Soul Eater's nest, confronting illusions and gathering the necessary elements to create another sigil. the Soul Eater is incapacitated as a result and presumably dies (however it is alluded to that it may only be trapped) thus breaking the creature's hold over the lost souls in it's nest - Lamashtu is left somewhat traumatized by the encounter and urges Shane to return to his family and enjoy the rest of his holiday, while he stays behind to ensure the supernatural threat is entirely neutralized.

### 2.04 Dragonfire

In a dimly lit garage, Shane contemplates the supernatural mysteries unfolding before him. Faced with a daunting case involving abducted girls and inexplicable deaths, he decides to invoke Lamashtu. Despite Shane's initial failure in casting the summoning spell, Lamashtu materializes in an all-black ensemble, ready to lend his expertise, Shane then briefs Lamashtu on the case, the revelation of Dragons as the culprits shocks the demon to the core. Unfazed by this though, Lamashtu explains that these mythical creatures are more than just fairy tale legends—they are real and pose a formidable challenge.

He defeats the demon with disdain, demonstrating his strength and disdain for those he considers inferior. This scene also hints at his troubled past, as the demon's taunts visibly affect him, suggesting a deeper backstory filled with conflict and perhaps regret.

Fiona, who has been searching for Lamashtu, witnesses this encounter and confronts him about his actions. Lamashtu’s reaction to Fiona's presence is cold and dismissive. He lies to her about his feelings and quickly vanishes when she presses him for answers, indicating a complex inner turmoil and a reluctance to reveal his true emotions or intentions.

The next morning, Lamashtu unexpectedly visits Shane, revealing a different side of himself. In this interaction, he expresses deep skepticism and distrust towards Fiona, stemming from his past experiences. His conversation with Shane reveals his emotional depth and the pain he harbors from losing a previous spirit guide, Constance. He shows vulnerability, admitting his fear of losing someone again, which is a significant revelation for a character who is otherwise portrayed as tough and unyielding.

Lamashtu's strategic side comes into play when he selects a challenging case for Shane and Fiona to solve.

He admits his continued vigilance and scrutiny of her, suggesting that while he may be impressed, his trust is hard to earn.

### 2.06 Dreamwalkers

Lamashtu's actions start in the background, as Fiona mentions his resentment towards her during a conversation with Shane. This resentment hints at a complicated history between Lamashtu and Fiona, especially regarding her role as Shane's spirit guide. Lamashtu's doubts about Fiona contribute to her feeling of sadness and uncertainty.

The first direct involvement of Lamashtu is through an eerie glitch in Fiona's manifestation, where his image briefly replaces hers. This unsettling occurrence suggests Lamashtu's powerful and mysterious influence, capable of interfering with spiritual entities, Lamashtu's interaction with Shane becomes more direct when he appears on Shane's non-functional TV. He reveals that Fiona sought his assistance, indicating a reluctant collaboration between them. Despite his disdain for Fiona, Lamashtu agrees to help, implying a vested interest in Shane's well-being or a larger plan. His comment about Shane being useless to him dead suggests a pragmatic approach to the situation.

Later, Lamashtu meets Fiona in a busy city street, displaying open hostility and contempt for her.

The resolution of the conflict sees Lamashtu impressed by Fiona's fighting skills, indicating a grudging respect for her abilities. His surprise at her prowess suggests that he may have underestimated her as he and Shane are saved by Fiona.

### 2.08 The Will of the Wanderer

Lamashtu is seen in more of an antagonistic role in this episode for the first time in years as his "demon" side takes president over his new compassionate and emotional side simply due to his distain for the multiverse wanderer Kasuti following their many encounters with each other both as herself and as part of The Legion.

The narrative itself begins with a group of Dragons in the sewers of Lincoln City, gathered around an ancient blade that poses a significant threat to their kind. The Dragons, honoring the will of the late Kasuti, plan to destroy the blade, which was forged with dragon's blood, making it lethal to them.

As the Dragons prepare a ritual to destroy the blade, Lamashtu interrupts, holding Kasuti's sword (which he retrieved in an earlier encounter with the Dragons). Mocking the Dragons for returning to the city so soon, he reveals that he has been tracking them by sensing their "chi." A confrontation ensues, during which Lamashtu uses Kasuti's sword to inflict fatal wounds on most of the Dragons, severely weakening them and preventing their transformation back into their true forms due to the underground setting, Lamashtu then attempts to leave with the case containing the blade but is briefly hindered by one of the Dragons, who uses pyrokinesis to cause him discomfort. However, he manages to stab and kill this Dragon before fleeing the sewers. To ensure no survivors, Lamashtu torches the sewers, upon exiting the sewers he notices the multiverse wanderer Scratch has also arrived in Lincoln City creating more tension.

Tensions rise as past grievances, personal motives, and supernatural powers clash, leading to a tragic outcome for Scratch. Kasuti's memories and identity undergo significant changes, and the characters grapple with the consequences of their actions and the complexities of their intertwined fates as, out of sheer instinct, Lamashtu kills Scratch with a special Hawthorn stake that had been assembled by Fiona and Shane.

Upon realizing what he has done, guilt overtakes Lamashtu and he proceeds to run away from the scene as Fiona scolds him and Shane questions his actions, he is last seen sat by a river bank contemplating his place in the world seemingly afraid of his original demonic self.

## Trivia

* Shane originally made the Lamashtu character after watching the YouTube series, The Haunting (hence the long pre-universe section on this page) however he never wrote anything down in those days however he would normally daydream about "Doctor Who-esque adventures" during his time in secondary school and thus Lamashtu became a prominent Eyoho verse character before the Eyoho verse was even a thing and has had many different versions and incarnations over the years.
* The "Suicide Bridge" encounter was also inspired by a YouTube video made by TFIL and Elton Castee which featured the exploration of the same bridge which is located in California and is an alleged hotbed of Supernatural activity.
* The idea to have actors portray Lamashtu, instead of the demon being another "faceless character and only a description for an appearance", was thought up by Shane during 2021 following his writing of "The Blood Hunter" Lamashtu story, this does however mess up the timeline slightly with the events of Lamashtu: Daemonium now happening in 2020 despite a 2019 release for the story making it somewhat out of sync with the rest of the universes stories.
* In an unreleased story from August 2022, both in universe versions of Lamashtu meet and due to their different personalities become enemies suggesting that Lamashtu didn't actually like the person he once was.

## In Myths and Folkore

Originally unknown to Shane, who adapted the character from a YouTube series, Lamashtu is a demon of Mesopotamian mythology and was a female demon, monster, malevolent goddess or demigoddess (not male like in the Eyoho Verse, although it is possible for a female incarnation too exist) who menaced women during childbirth as well as being charged with a number of other evil deeds. She was a daughter of the Sky God Anu - unlike many other usual demonic figures and depictions in Mesopotamian lore, Lamashtu was said to act in malevolence of her own accord, rather than at the gods' instructions, it is said in Mesopotamian lore that she may even have the power of a demigoddess.

Pazuzu, a god or demon, was invoked to protect birthing mothers and infants against Lamashtu's malevolence, usually on amulets and statues. Although Pazuzu was said to be bringer of famine and drought, he was also invoked against evil for protection, and against plague, but he was primarily and popularly invoked against his fierce, malicious rival Lamashtu.

Almost none of this lore is used in the Eyoho Verse however creator Shane said: "Now that I know this, It's opened the door to tell more stories with this character."

## In Official media (Outside of the Eyoho Verse)

* Lamashtu is the main antagonist in markapsolon's YouTube series, The Haunting.
* Lamashtu appears as a character in the NBC television series "Constantine" in the episode "The Saint of Last Resorts".
