OK, how could they forget Enkidu, the wild man that Gilgamesh had an epic bromance with? He was a major motivator in Gilgamesh going form an all-power royal brat, to the wise and heroic King that we know he for! The dude got civilized after being with a temple prostitute for "seven days and seven nights" STRAIGHT!!!

Utukku usually inhabit the planes of Carceri, but on rare occasions they will come to the Prime Material Plane, inhabiting caverns or pits in desolate regions.

Ekimmu (2E)
The edimmu, read incorrectly sometimes as ekimmu,[1] were a type of utukku in Sumerian religion, similar in nature to the preta of the Hindu religions or the jiangshi of Chinese mythology.

Shem Mesopotamia, Syria, Palestine, and Arabia. In the Bible, Shem is Noah's eldest son, the ancestor of the Hebrews, Arabs and Assyrians; hence, the modern "Semite" and Semitic languages (via Greek Sem), used properly to designate the family of languages spoken by these peoples. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyborian_Age#Etymology
