THE SIX REALMS OF SAMSARA • THE SIX PATHS OF REBIRTH
The six levels that make up the possible range of existence within saṃsāra. These are the realms of the gods (deva), the demi-gods (asura), humans (manuṣa), animals (tiryak), hungry ghosts (preta) and hell denizens (naraka). Generally Buddhism tends to teach that these levels are real modes of existence although some forms of Buddhism, especially within Mahāyāna.emphasize that they are rather more like symbolic of states of mind or modes of experience. According to Mahāyāna teachings, rebirth in each of these modes of existence is brought about by a predominance of a particular spiritual defilement (kleśa): as a god through pride, a demi-god through jealousy, human through lust, animal through stupidity, hungry ghost through greed and hell-denizen through hatred. These six levels are depicted in the popular Tibetan Wheel of Life (bhavacakra) paintings.

TRU'NEMBRA • THE VIOLINIST OF AZATHOTH
Tru'nembra, also known as The Living Discord, The Angel of Music and the Daemon Musician, is one of the oldest and most-respected Outer Gods in existence, as well as the Chief Executive of Azathoth's Council and one of the guardians of both the Dreaming and the Deaf Sanctuary. He was described as the 'Announcer of Azathoth's Return'.
Tru'nembra, as an Eldritch Cosmic Entity, has no definite appearance, though it's suggested his true form resembles eerie, formless, high-transcendent resonances and vibrations that form the songs which keep Azathoth asleep. When Tru'nembra is summoned, it brings along the maddening symphony it uses to keep its master asleep, bringing insanity to those who are unfortunate enough to hear its blaring chaos.
