Homebrew Shiispawn Species Details

I did no wrong. I stayed in line. Followed our rules. 

I tried my best to ensure a long life down there, and yet I was thrown out, and for a rumor of all things. I can't wrap my head around it.

I've been the victim of attempted murder 4 times this week. I've tried to hide myself and enter society, but that's only proved to fail.

The surface is more of a hell than home.

— Anghi, The First Risen

Infernal monsters of the hellish landscape No'Nint, Shiispawn are recent travellers to the surface area of Clobia and Felocia, though this is not of their choice. In most cases, they are thrown out of their homes in No'Nint for breaking the strict, horrific rules of the hell they live in.

Sinful Startings

Shiispawn are birthed from women who die in a life of sin. The sin that woman was full of the most determines the breed of the Shiispawn. Lust, Wrath, Gluttony, Envy, Sloth, Pride, and Greed. Lust Shiispawn are green, with long, spiked horns. Their eyes, though normally pale pink, gain a deeper saturation the more the Shiispawn delve deeper into their lust. Wrath Shiispawn are red with tall, sharp horns. As their names suggest, Shiispawn of the Wrath breed are constantly in a state of anger and disdain. Gluttony Shiispawn are orange with short, striped horns, and the only breed of Shiispawn with no eyes. Fully relying on their horns, which vibrate and act as a form of echolocation for them. Envy Shiispawn are pink with short, skinny horns. Envy Shiispawn are more isolated, though secretly obsess over anyone around them. Sloth Shiispawn are dark grey with large curved horns and long luscious hair. They are patient, with skin that can harden into stone at will. Pride Shiispawn are sea blue with short horns that split off in two directions. Typically found in bodies of water, Pride Shiispawn are the most social breed, gathering in groups and boasting about themselves. Greed Shiispawn are pale yellow-grey with golden horns, fangs, and claws. Usually thieves, these greedy demons wear their stolen bling with style and will do most anything in order to obtain more riches.

Hellish Homes and Negative Stigma

Shiispawn are typically found in No'Nint, an infernal realm filled with plenty of different landscapes(mountains, oceans, and forests to name a few) located beneath the realms of Clobia and Felocia. Most Shiispawn live out their entire lives in No'Nint, though there are examples of outcasting. Should a Shiispawn act out against the system of No'Nint or be shamed by others for any public "crime", they are tossed out to the surface to fend for themselves. Most do not survive, as they are interpreted as spies or murderers and then are murdered themselves. Those who do survive are forced to live a life of stress and paranoia. The negative stigma towards Shiispawn as a race stems from the race's creator, the demonic god Shiirathe, who created them to spite the angelic goddess Iaculis. Iaculis, being the creator of all life in Clobia and Felocia, spreaded the hate towards Shiispawn into the minds of her creations, fueling the modern acts of violence towards them.
