CREATURES A-D














AZGOUL




Found:   Kult p.200,  2nd Ed p.188




Description:   The Azgouls are our old servants, left behind when we were exiled.  They roam
throughout Metropolis and live on whatever they can find.  Sometimes they cross into our world,
grab someone and drag him/her with them back into the City.  The Azgouls are still our slaves,
but we have forgotten how to make them obey us.  Anyone who hears the name of an Azgoul
gets power over it.  The name triggers an inherited instinct of obedience and restores their
reverence for us.  This is utilized by demonologists and other occultists, who spend a lot of time
trying to research old Azgoul names, and attempting to use them to control Azgouls.  Sometimes
they succeed, other times the demonologist gets eaten.  This has given rise to the legend of
demons who obey anyone who knows their name.  There are only a limited number of different
Azgoul names, approximately 1 000 of them.  This makes it possible, though in no way easy, to
succeed in finding the name of the one you encounter.  Books on demonology often contain lists
of these names, together with marks of recognizance so that you are enabled to connect the right
name to the right Azgoul.  Azgouls in the service of humans can assume any form they wish and
often appear as ordinary people with high Comeliness.

   When not controlled by humans, the Azgouls resume their own appearance.  They are large
humanoids with course black skin.  They walk slightly bent, and their hands have two fingers
and two thumbs.  The head is large and unevenly formed.  The green eyes have several pupils
which move back and forth.  The nose is just two nostrils which can be closed.  The mouth can
be opened horizontally or vertically and is filled with large, gray teeth.

   Azgouls always wear a completely covering, gray 'steel armor' with a smoke coloured or red
visor covering the face.  The armor is in reality a parasite which lives in symbiosis with the
Azgoul.  It connects to the Azgoul's nervous system and shares its sensory impressions.  It works
more like an outer shell than a garment.  Azgouls are always armed.  Their life span is infinite.   




Personality:   Azgouls are basically inoffensive creatures who have been subjected to much evil
under human oppression.  They are enjoying their revenge.

BORDERLINER 




Found:   Kult p.195,  2ND Ed p.190




Description:   Borderliners are creatures on the borderline between our reality and Metropolis. 
They see into the City, but cannot cope with entirely leaving our world.  They used to be humans
who saw more of the truth than most of us, but they could not handle what they saw.  They lost
their minds and were stuck in a twilight world.  They live in the slums, near the portals which
connect our cities to Metropolis.  People who dwell in the borderland between life and death
often see through the illusions, and may become Borderliners.  

   The appearance of a person who becomes a Borderliner changes, partially from living in the
slums, sewers and such places, and partially from the contact with realities he/she cannot handle. 
The skin flakes and the body is discoloured.  If the Borderliner was stuck between life and death,
his body may become half rotted.  He/she stops wearing clothes.  The eyes become constantly
red, with huge pupils to see in the dark.  The nails become black and hard, like claws.  They
have an unlimited lifespan.




Personality:   Borderliners are mad.  They cannot cope with their split existence in two worlds,
and resort to following their most primitive instincts.  They kill and eat people who wander into
the slums or who happen to cross into Metropolis.  They forget all human things and live only to
eat, sleep and find shelter from the cold and the rain.
