Sheriruth Codex

## Profile

### Background

Sheriruth Codex is an old codex written in Ancient Hebrew with an incomprehensible set of grammars containing the records of greatest obstinacies that either led to the downfall of a dynasty or their rising. This grimoire has been rumored to harbor great power, but unfortunately, there hasn't been anyone yet to unlock it. The requirement to do so is quite taxing, or even impossible: to be able to decrypt what is written inside for at least a page and make a sense out of it. It is known that everything inside is written in ancient Hebrew alphabets, but when translated, the words do not make any sense in however way; jumbled words, incomprehensible speech, missing letter, randomized grammar, and so on, which led researchers to believe that the grimoire was never meant to understand, hence it’s power is not supposed to be unlocked. However, if the grimoire itself desires, it will help the user in any way that meets the demands when possible. This grimoire is a sentient grimoire that is able to speak to anyone it wishes to (channeled private speech). This aspect is what makes this grimoire quite infamous, too, as most of the times, it refuses to help the owner but with basic grimoire functions (such as macros), and will always persistently say that it is only going to observe. Many cases of death of those who wielded it are known because the wielders had not enough force to protect themselves, thinking that the grimoire will help them by enhancing their power. This grimoire is also capable of manifesting itself as a tall European male (records said that his height is around 190 cm) but only inside the user’s field of perception. On the outside, it will always appear as a normal grimoire wielded by many mages. Quite recently, it was given another form (female) with body height around 150 cm.

In truth, Sheriruth Codex has always been a part of The Qlipoth Tree, as one of it's lesser branches. Under the rule of Nahemoth, along with other lesser branches, she was sent to observe humans. The Demon Lord Nahemoth himself is currently scurrying around the world, enjoying his pastime. As something that was derived from The Tree of Evil itself, Sheriruth is surprisingly aligned as a chaotic neutral individual. This origin itself is also what made Sheriruth is indecipherable for it was originated from The Great Tree of Evil and manifested to form by Lord Nahemoth himself. Humans were never meant to get ahold on the power since the beginning of their existence, yet some will foolishly persist and try to attain it for themselves, which always led to a certain end: death.

Sheriruth herself, powered by the factors of Qlipoth (other than the fact that she is one of the lesser branches), is able to use strong magics at her own will. All these time however, she restrained herself as "It's not necessary to use it". The codex itself can be used to summon either one of the twelve Demon Lords of Qlipoth with proper offerings. Nahemoth however, is excluded from this summoning as he restricted it to his own subordinates. In addition, no matter how much time a contracted master has spent with Sheriruth, in the end, it is but a temporary contract, as the **True Master** of Lesser Branches is Nahemoth.
