Information: Tsucoras are among the weakest and most numerous quori of Dal Quor. When they are not serving in the great cities of their nightmare realm, they hunt the dreaming spirits of mortals. Most tsucoras are cruel and calculating; they enjoy having power over others and concoct elaborate schemes to advance their own positions and discredit their rivals.

They form the masses of Dal Quor. Constantly jockeying for position, tsucoras hope to be reincarnated as a more powerful servant of the Dark. Their plans are as often for the ruination of a competitor as they are for the furthering of the il-Lashtavar's plans. None want to return to life as a lowly tsoreva. !SUC ORA Quo_R_I __ Tsucora quori are nightmarish creatures. Their headless torsos are covered with eyes and twitching limbs, including two massive arms that end in powerful pincers, 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 position, 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 competitors 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. Fearmongers. 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 uncertainty 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.
