Greed

## Description

The Ring of Greed is one of the main locations in the realm of Hell, and is ruled entirely by King Mammon and other Goetian Business Owners.

Over the course of the millennia, The Ring of Greed has morphed quickly from its once lush greenery to a literal industrial hellscape. Despite this change, Greed still has small expanses of natural land that have not been colonized by Demon-kind. Although demons cannot live in these locations due to the waste and pollution the Megalopoli have spread into the little remaining nature, much of the land has become almost entirely uninhabitable for any life.

## Inhabitants

### Loan Sharks:

Loan Sharks are very similar to the Kraken species in Envy, and they are assumedly the same species. Due to the uninhabitable waters of Greed, the Loan Sharks have adapted to a mainly land-based existence. This sub-species of Kraken gained their name mainly due to the distinctive class differences between The Envy Ring Krakens and those of The Greed Ring, the lower income of The Greed Ring has caused many of the Kraken in the ring to turn to Mafia work.

### Dinosaurid:

This species of animal closely resemble that of The Earth Species Dinosaurs, although no direct connection has ever been found. While not strictly linked to actual dinosaur species and more so just referred to by that name, This species is defined by it's reptilian-looking demons who can resemble creatures from Ankylosaurus to Dragons. Some sub-species are equipped with more dangerous abilities, like the dragons, some of which are able to spit acid and even sometimes flames. The acid is a direct result of the pollution in The Greed Ring affecting the water supply, and thusly the demons who drink said water.

## Geography

### Mountains:

Surprisingly clean are the mountains of Greed, stretching into the sky and above the clouds. The rain storms that often fall around this region are part of the reason they have stayed so pristine. These mountains and the forests usually located directly beneath them, are where the most of Greed’s wild-life thrives.

### Marshlands:

Commonly found between the Sparse forests and the Megalopoli of The Greed Ring, the marshlands linger in the empty space. Like most of Greed's water-based areas, the entire Marshlands have become entirely inhospitable to any forms of life due to the large amount of toxic pollution and waste that is thrown into the water by companies.

### Forests:

Usually located at the foot of mountains, these forests are able to support a large number of animals and plants. The forests sport a pale green shade of leaves which sprout from the trees that encompass the mountain’s base. These trees are often completely hollow, an apparent adaptation which would make them less likely to be cut down.

### The Coasts:

Perhaps the most polluted of the places on the list, the coasts and oceans of The Greed Ring have been ‘flooded’ with plastic, toxic waste and other substances. The sands are covered in plastic bags and other such trash, which also flies into the ocean. Although it is truly rare, you may stumble upon an area of Ocean where the mint green water is not entirely corrupted. Along the same lines, there are some places in the Greed Ring’s coasts where littering is prohibited (As unlikely as that sounds, it works fairly well) and the oceans are mostly clear of debris.

### Megalithic Forests:

In the furthest reaches of Greed, it is rumored that the trees had never been tampered with by Demon-kind, which caused the trees to tower into the sky. These supposed ‘Skyscraper-like’ trees have never actually been confirmed by any research teams, as before they could ever reach the area, the teams tore each other to shards.
