Shatachna

(sha-TAK-na) The Iron Queen, The Lady of Pain, Mistress of Curses

Summary

The Iron Queen and Mistress of the Seven Hells, Shatachna is an ancient demon associated with pain and suffering. Those seeking power and dominion call her upon to inflict pain on others, and she has claimed the souls of more than a few would-be “magisters” as her personal slaves and attendants.

• Scourge of Shatachna conjures a many-tailed whip that inflicts burning pain with each strike.
• Scythe of Shatachna is a wicked, curved blade at the end of a long black handle, wielded as a two-handed weapon, preternaturally sharp and deadly.
• Servants of Shatachna is a demon-summoning spell. It’s also a commonly enacted ritual for cults worshipping Shatachna, calling on one of her many demonic slaves for aid.
• Shadows of Shatachna are more than mere darkness; they are hungry shadows from the depths of a dark netherworld, a darkness that feeds fear like oxygen feeds a fire. Fleeing victims often run into obstacles in the darkness in their blind efforts to escape from the dreadful terrors they feel lurking there.
• Shatachna’s Seal of Silence places an enchantment on the subject, preventing them from speaking of or communicating about certain information in any way. The subject retains awareness of the information and of the spell, but they simply cannot communicate.
