The dimension of Oden-Tal was populated by a humanoid species of demons. They were organized in an monarchic society in which males, known as Vigories, had all the power, while females lived in servitude.

The females of the species had a row of raised ridges on either cheek. They also had ridges on their back. The ridges on their back was called the ko. This area was the nexus for the personality and passions of the demon.

When the females first came of age, ko became supercharged them with energy, which manifested as heat and intense strength. At first they couldn't control this power and need to be cooled constantly. With practice and time they could use this power at will. The Ko also signaled by glowing with heat when they were aroused and had met desirable mates.

A Vigorie (Oden-Tal male)

Oden-Tal males were addressed as Vigories. Vigories lacked the raised ridges on their cheeks but had a line of four vertical ridges on their foreheads. They also apparently had ridges down their back and Ko, but no power stemmed from it.

Inter-Gender Relationships[]

Oden-Tal females lived bound to servitude to the males in their home world. In order to make women submissive and easily controlled, part of their ko at the base of their neck was removed in a painful process that subdued their personality. After they were"cut, the female showed no independent will, total submissiveness, and refered to themselves as "it." Females were not give names, considered property, and referred to only as "it."
