A Reliquary is an object that serves as a container for the soul of an Earthbound. The Earthbound are either too powerful or too weak to possess a human vessel, so they take possession of inanimate objects and use them as an anchor to hold them in the corporeal world.

Aside from this reason, a demon may possess and reliquary and become Earthbound either because they were summoned and bound into such an object, or because there simply was no suitable new human host around when they lost their old hosts.

However, reliquaries do not provide the Earthbound with humanity and thus they are completely vulnerable to their Torment, usually resulting in insanity.
