             !SUCORA Q u o_R_I  _   _
             Tsucora quori are nightmarish creatures. Their head­
             less torsos are covered with eyes and twitching limbs,
             including two massive arms that end in powerful pin­
             cers, and a serpentine tail tipped with a vicious stinger.
             They are cruel and calculating, enjoying the power they
             wield over others as they concoct elaborate schemes to
             advance their own positions and discredit their rivals.
              Relentless Schemers.  Constantly jockeying for posi­
             tion, each tsucora hopes to be reincarnated as a more
             powerful servant of the Dreaming Dark. As such, their
             plans are as often focused on the ruination of competi­
             tors as they are on the furthering of il-Lashtavar's plans.
             When they aren't serving in the cities of their nightmare
             realm, they hunt the dreaming spirits of mortals.
              F e armongers. Their ability to manipulate the fears of
             mortals sees tsucoras often sent to Eberron as Inspired.
             Nothing keeps humanoid chattel in line like fear, and
             the tsucoras are the masters of manipulating the un­
             certainty of mobs and high-ranking officials alike. The
             effectiveness of tsucora Inspired keeps the members of
             this order in the good graces of the kalaraq quori.
