===Vulgarean Inhabitants=== Way back when [[Eshebala]] first reared her head in [[Monster Mythology]], it was noted that Eshebala despised the vast majority of [[demon]]s for being brutish and ugly. As such, the monsters in this module are tweaked, something explained at the module's beginning in a section called "Vulgarean Demons are Atypical": ::All fiends in Vulgarea have the subtype: "demon." Eshebala is disgusted by demons, for they are ugly and uncomprehending of beauty. She accepted them eventually for their utility and because they are a readily available legion that occurs naturally in the Abyss. After she frivolously expended 10,000 + years of human and Kitsune followers, she needed servants, guards and soldiers. ::As she begrudgingly endured their proximity, she never stopped trying to breed more aesthetically pleasing demonic hybrids. She created untold forms, many of which were immediately cast out of Vulgarea. Some say the misty wastes that hem her citadel are horrific enough that her legions fear to see what has stayed alive in there. There are odd howls in the night, guttural, lonely and ravenous for anything to disembowel. ::Case in point, the Vulgarean demon stat-blocks do not always reflect the expected D&D traits. Only some have maintained elemental defenses, and due to a harsh period where demon-to-demon summoning was banned by Eshebala, fewer still have the ability to call in backup. Also, the following caveat may be thought of, as a consistent general trait of Vulgrean Demonkind: :::'''''Special Susceptibility:''' Many demons may or may not have obscure vulnerabilities and wardings listed as secrets in the esoterica found by the Players. The pedigree of minor demons is contingent upon the care of their immediate masters/officers and their strange long-term honing/breeding. Some Vulgarean demon variants are very new to the Abyss (newer than tanar'ri), and some very, very old (as old as obyriths!). Some still adhere to the ancient customs and rulings of demonkind similar to what's described in our earth's myth history. It is up to the DM whether or not these weaknesses can be successfully exploited per battle if the PCs encounter them or discover ancient tomes and secrets.''
