The Curse of Shattados, the final doom of the Sulm, came suddenly when its last ruler, a mad sorcerer named Shattados, was granted a boon from his divine patron, Tharizdun. The dark god's gift took the form of a powerful artifact called the Scorpion Crown, which promised to allow Shattados's true and everlasting dominion over all his subjects. What it did was transform Shattados into a giant scorpion and almost all of Sulm's people into hideous manscorpions bound to Shattados, and precipitated the eventual decline of the Sulm's lush grasslands to a wasteland of sand and rock now known as the Bright Desert.
