Description

Possessions
Turanu was armed with bone daggers, a longspear, but her venomous bite was the katanga's most dangerous weapon.

History
In the late 14 century DR, the Tribe of the Wise Ones became aware of a looming threat. The leader of the dreaded spider katanga, the Mother of a Thousand Young, was swollen with a thousand children ready to overflow the jungles. In preparation for the birthing, she initiated a ritual that sent deadly poisons into the rivers cascading off the Fire Mountain. Lulaku was posted to guard a stockade of captured heroes of the Living Jungle, enemies of the Mother of a Thousand Young. She was accompanied by Lulaku and Fusamu. The spider katanga were guarding several Nubari humans and lizardfolk. Turanu was loyal to Talunuku, a spider katanga who was secretly responsible for the poison and sought to become the new Mother of a Thousand Young.

Turanu's fate was unknown; however, she and other guards were faced with heroes of the Living Jungle that were sent to rescue the prisoners and stop the Mother of a Thousand Young, likely resulting in her death.
