Aishan

The aishan is a demon archetype which originates from the Shien'tyr valence. It is not known to have any subtypes. It is classified as a minor demon, and as such, can be summoned through the use of Minor Summoning (725).

Physical Description

The aishan is a creature similar to a common Elanthian wolf. It is bulkier and coated in coarse fur, which is especially heavy around the neck. Common fur colors consist of red or black. Grey, silver, and white have also been observed, the brighter the color the more rare. The fur is known to be particularly insubstantial to the touch, and some theories conclude that it is the physical manifestation of Shien'tyr's shadowy haze. Many aishan summoned are without tails, though whether this is a natural mutation or caused by something else is unknown. Aishan have sheen, pupilless eyes, which resemble flickering flames and range in color from dark red to yellow to light blue. The eyes are so sheen, in fact, a clear reflection can be seen if gazed into. Their most distinguishing feature, however, are their massive powerful jaws, filled with oversized teeth. Teeth so large, the beasts can barely close their mouths. These teeth are also capable of transfering virulent diseases to victims when bitten. Aishan also posessed a great capacity to hear and smell, giving them a natural benefit to finding things that most would miss.

Society and Behavior

Aishan seem to lack any sort of sentience, therefore do not have any society amongst themselves. Furthermore, they seem to be rather preoccupied, and do not pay much attention to their surroundings unless bid to do so by their summoner. Oddly enough, they are incredibly loyal, even if the summoner is abusive towards them.

Mechanical Benefits and Flaws

The aishan are unmatched by any other demons in their ability to find hidden and invisible characters. They are also exceptional at guarding their summoner from pickpockets. They will even guard without being instructed. If a pickpocket is caught by your aishan, a painful wound and potent disease will be inflicted from the bite. Unfortunately, aishan have no hands or arms, and therefore can only hold a maximum of two items, only one of which they will pick up on their own (eyes do not apply). They are also unable to transfer mana, carry coins, and cannot deliver messages.
