Once a demon, and of unspeakable ancientness, Zura is the source of vampirism in Ahren, and thus exemplifies its best qualities - the seductive, predatory, and ultimately treacherous nature. This makes her, in many ways, the antithesis of Orcus, the God-Lich and rival Lord of the Abyss. Where Orcus made himself into what...")

A demon of such advanced age as to have been "old at the beginning of time", he predates all the other Lords of the Abyss except Sith-Mycel, many of whom blame him for the existance of The Firchliss; a charge he would deny.
