 The souls that fall under Akhoman's domain primarily include individuals obsessed with pain, such as those who tortured others for pleasure, whether they did so openly or under the guise of enforcing law or another mortal excuse, as well as those so obsessed they even torture themselves. Likewise, those who led lives burdened by great physical pain and lost themselves in their own misery, rather than striving for goodness in spite of their suffering, may find their souls going to Akhoman. Some scholars say that Akhoman created or influenced many magical [[Curse|curses]] that bring unbearable pain with them, such as the unimaginable agony of [[lycanthropy]], though no one knows this for certain.

-Akhoman or Akhos, Lord of Agony, is among the most powerful of all the [[Demon|demon]] lords. His domain is that of Pain, and he is thought to be among the most ancient of all beings, having perhaps existed since the [[Gods|gods]] themselves were young - or even before their time.
+Akhoman, also called Akhos, is the [[Demon]] Lord of Pain, one of the most ancient and powerful of all the demon lords. Some even claim he is a son of, or was created by, [[Ahriman]] himself. He is considered a sanguine-type demon of the Circle of Destruction. His lesser demonic spawn are called [[Algos|Algoi]] (singular Algos).
 Akhoman is the father of the cambion [[Kye]] and the primary deity of the [[Svartalfar]] city of [[Ak'varylystha]].
 ==Depictions==
-Being such an ancient demon, sometimes thought of as one of the first of all demons, Akhoman has been depicted in a variety of forms. Sometimes, he is seen as a demon with a canine head, while at other times he may have a head more like a strange demonic skull with massive horns and prominent fangs. Other times, he may seem little more than a formless shadow. Regardless of shape, however, he has several consistent attributes, such as bright violet eyes, four horns, large fangs, claws, four arms, and a spearheaded tail. Generally, he is also depicted with great, dark, bat-like wings. His skin is usually shown as red and often marked by ritual scarring and tattoos alike. His weapon of choice is a six-tailed whip.
+Being such an ancient demon, Akhoman has been depicted in a variety of forms. Sometimes, he is drawn as simply a formless shadow, much like Ahriman, while at other times he has a canine head or skull, with four massive horns, prominent fangs, and purple eyes. His weapon of choice is a whip, multi-tailed and often bladed. The dark elves make statues of him in this form, also featuring four arms - two with bat-like wings attached - each bearing a hand with three great claws. In [[Parsanshar]], he is sometimes depicted as a humanoid beast with long hair and many fangs as long as an elephant's tusks.

-The souls that fall under Akhoman's domain primarily include individuals obsessed with pain, such as those who tortured others for pleasure, whether they did so openly or under the guise of enforcing law or another mortal excuse, as well as those so obsessed they even torture themselves. Likewise, those who led lives burdened by great physical pain and lost themselves in their own misery, rather than striving for goodness in spite of their suffering, also go to Akhoman. It is sometimes thought that the unbelievable pain of some [[Curse|curses]] were the result of creation or influence from Akhoman, such as the unimaginable agony of [[lycanthropy]], though no one knows this for certain.

-The [[Algos]] are Akhoman's minions. Like all demons, they come in a variety of forms, always similar in several ways to the forms taken by Akhoman himself. However, as lesser demons, they are generally hideous and malformed, unlike their master.
+The [[Algos|Algoi]] (singular Algos) are Akhoman's minions. Like all demons, they come in a variety of forms, but most appear like a lesser form of Akhoman's primary avatar, with bat-like wings, great horns and fangs, and a bestial head with red or purple eyes. Their skin is usually heavily scarred and tattooed, and they favor the whip as their weapon. [[Cambions]] born of Akhoman or an Algos can perform the Touch of Pain, causing extreme, debilitating agony to wrack a victim's body with a mere touch.
