Apologies for the long delay, just been problem after problem.
This post will the last I do in blogger post format. The rest will be a blog post
introducing the realm and then a link to a google drive document.
Blogger has become increasingly unwieldy when trying to make large posts,
and converting tables from drive to blogger is always a headache.
This realm is one that required the most amount of rewrites due to my distaste for
my younger tone and mechanical choices. In the end I removed more than I added,
but you can find the original text here:
Here's the links to the planescrap primer:

BOUNDLESS RIFTS OF FLESH (The Flesh Rifts, the abyss)
The Flesh Rifts are about desire, cruelty, lust and hunger, all without limits or restraint . It draws to itself
souls who craved their own gratification over the consideration of anything else. Marauders, sadists,
and the truly degenerate all come here. Most Souls end up in the Depths of Pleasure and Pain,
which is like a vast city-sized gothic cathedral,
the majority of its "mass" actually being more of a pit-like bas-relief into a vast heaving stone
plateau in the approximate middle of the Flesh Rifts.
The Depths of Pleasure and Pain is a seething brawl, orgy, torture chamber, slaughter and holy rite.
The majority quickly lose their own concept of self, and are absorbed into the essence of the plane.
The particularly strong of spirit are shaped into demons.
The Depths has a massive hedge of Desire Thorns, to strip the Salt of any Soul even before they lose themselves
in the Flesh Rifts. The Flesh Rifts splinter out from this central point, a maddening labyrinth of canyons
, ravines, plateaus, and obscene rock formations, the top of which is frequently covered in garish broiling mists .
Visibility is extremely limited even if you can find the rare path that does not wind through the Canyons.
If the mist is clear, you can see what appears to be clouds and stars. These are actually the war debris of The Grind.

Some Items Of Note
Emetic whip: an emetic whip is a cured semi-living stomach inverted around a section of its large
intestine. The other end of the intestine is held, and as the whip is snapped the stomach turns back
inwards, releasing its contents in a 1-10 foot arc (depending on the size of the stomach).
The contents, in addition to virulent acid can include poisons, diseases, and dire tapeworms.
The stomach will reload its acid load in about an hour if "fed."
Envious sallet: this is a specially-treated skinned face of someone who hated you.
The hate for you has infused it, and if it sees anyone appearing to attack you,
it will involuntarily alert you with the feelings of envy that pulse out of it,
for it longs to be the one to kill you.
Worm spear: these are spears with the shaft that of a more-or-less rigid worm.
By squeezing the worm, the spear becomes thin and lengthens to form a pike.
By pulling the shaft together it will shorten and fatten and so become a short spear.
Meathead:
Mercenaries enhancing their bodies reckless with stolen flesh
