HP 25
Morale: FEARLESS

Rusted chain and

thick death-shroud -d4
Executioner's sword
d6 + special

The Dark Lord dispatches these to rid the world of threats to the apocalypse.
The end of all things will not be denied.

SPECIAL: Anyone struck by the Executioner's sword must test DR14 Presence
or receive 4d10 Damage instead. SCUM CAN NOT HAVE THIS POWER.

The Executioner of Nechrubel uses a random unclean scroll once every 5 HP he loses.

If slain, it will reanimate 7 dawns later (or upon a Misery). The only way to rid yourself
of an Executioner of Nechrubel is to strike a bargain with a Twin-Headed Basilisk.

BEAR-TH ING Angry.
BEAR-TH ING Hangry.
A strange concoction of goblin and bear . . . but undead.
Drooling and caked in blood, the BEAR-THING is
insatiable. Everything it eats just falls right out of its
rotting, open abdomen.
Generally feeds on local goblins, but will happily eat
man-flesh too. Lives in a cave.

 The Daughter of Babalon
We are come onto a palace of which every stone is a separate jewel, and is set
with millions of moons.

And this palace is nothing but the body of a woman, proud and delicate, and
beyond imagination fair. She is like a child of twelve years old. She has very
deep eyelids, and long lashes. Her eyes are closed, or nearly closed. It is im-
possible to say anything about her. She is naked; her whole body is covered with
fine gold hairs, that are the electric flames which are the spears of mighty and
terrible Angels whose breastplates are the scales of her skin. And the hair of
her head, that flows down to her feet, is the very light of God himself. Of all
the glories beheld by the Seer in the Aethyrs, there is not one which is worthy
to be compared with her littlest finger-nail. For although he may not partake
of the Aethyr, without the ceremonial preparations, even the beholding of this
Aethyr from afar is like the par taking of all the former Aethyrs.

The Seer is lost in wonder, which is Peace.

And the ring of the horizon above her is a company of glorious Archangels with
joined hands, that stand and sing: This is the daughter of BABALON the
Beautiful, that she hath borne unto the Father of All. And unto all hath she
borne her.

This is the Daughter of the King. This is the Virgin of Eternity. This is she
that the Holy One hath wrested from the Giant Time, and the prize of them that
have overcome Space. This is she that is set upon the Throne of Understanding.
Holy, Holy, Holy is her name, not to be spoken among men. For Kore they have
called her, and Malkah, and Betulah, and Persephone.

And the poets have feigned songs about her, and the prophets have spoken vain
things, and the young men have dreamed vain dreams: but this is she, that
immaculate, the name of whose name may not be spoken. Thought cannot pierce the
glory that defendeth her, for thought is smitten dead before her presence.
Memory is blank, and in the most ancient books of Magick are neither words to
conjure her, nor adorations to praise her. Will bends like a reed in the tem-
pests that sweep the borders of her kingdom, and imagination cannot figure so
much as one petal of the lilies whereon she standeth in the lake of crystal, in
the sea of glass.

This is she that hath bedecked her hair with seven stars, the seven breaths of
God that move and thrill its excellence. And she hath tired her hair with seven
combs, whereupon are written the seven secret names of God that are not known
even of the Angels, or of the Archangels, or of the Leader of the armies of the
Lord.

Holy, Holy, Holy art thou, and blessed be thy name for ever, unto whom the
Aeons are but the pulsings of thy blood.
75
From the Vision and the Voice, 9th Aethyr, quoted in The Book of Thoth by Alister Crowley.
