Editing Zura

Zura, known simply as the Vampire Queen, is a [[Demon Prince]]ss of Blood, Cannibalism and [[Vampire]]s who is believed to have originated as a particularly decadent Atzlant queen from the [[Pathfinder]] world of [[Golarion]]; a cannibalistic gourmand and a twisted fetishist who routinely bathed in blood, she killed herself as part of an accidental suicide pact with several consorts, only for her soul to arise in the [[Abyss]] as a [[vampire]]-[[succubus]], who, much like [[Nocticula]], went on to become a powerful Demon Princess.

Zura appears as a [[monstergirls|weirdly sexy melding of woman and bat]], looking much like a brown-skinned succubus with blood-red hair and eyes, taloned feet like a dire bat, bat's wings in place of arms, and vampire-like fangs. Needless to say, she's most popular with cannibals and vampires - this gives her a rather complicated relationship with [Urgathoa]], with the two constantly switching from being closely allied to waging bloody war upon one another.

Zura's unholy symbol is a runic depiction of a fanged skull done in crimson, or of a skull with crimson fangs, and she is honored either through the mutual drinking of blood between humanoids or through a cannibalistic feast. She bestows protection against the supernatural powers of undead beings, and various powers that emulate vampirism in her most rewarded followers, culminating in the ability to temporarily become a vampire for a short period of time.

Much like her fellow Demon Princess [[Jezelda]], Zura rules over an [[Abyss]]al realm stocked with humanoid victims captured from countless worlds. Known as Nesh, it takes the form of a long, narrow world dominated by mountains, ranging from snowy peaks and glacial valleys at one end to temperate regions of woodland and moor in the center to jungle-covered slopes and swampy lowlands at the opposite end. Of course, this realm exists under an eternal night sky, given the Vampire Queen and her minions & followers an endless opportunity to feast.
