Difference between revisions of "Shaod"

During the events of ''[[Elantris]]'', it is considered a curse to be struck with the Shaod, as at that time, the transformation is unable to complete itself, and the person is left a shell of their prior self. Those stricken with the Shaod were exiled to Elantris, where they would slowly accumulate a large number of injuries (due to their being stuck in the middle of their transformation, their bodies wouldn't heal).

 

 

One of the many oddities of the Shaod is that it only takes people from [[Arelon]] or [[Teod]]. It is suspected, but not confirmed, that this is due to [[Aon Dor]]'s close connection with Arelon and its geography in general.
