Ebon Wraith

bestiarydarkness

Ebon wraiths are ghostly darkness creatures with humanoid silhouettes wreathed in black mist. They drift above the ground and attack settlements alongside umbral stalkers.

They create mental illusions that exploit their opponents' memories and fears. During the attack on Dravemir, one surrounded Aurion with an illusion of darkness and showed him his dead father. Aurion recognized the image but hesitated while the city's defenders were being overwhelmed. His expanding cosmic barrier and falling meteors annihilated the attacking swarm.

Wraiths appear along the borders of the Land of Darkness and in settlements threatened by its spread. They accompanied a harbinger attacking a Soltheris village.

Wraiths can be destroyed by magic. Aurion's expanding cosmic barrier and falling meteors annihilated the swarm at Dravemir. At Velundra's southern gates, Kaelion pierced a hovering wraith with a spear drawn from the sun's core.

Origins and range

In ancient Xalmyrra, an atraxi redirected a river and built a dam, corrupting a village. The corruption turned hundreds of its inhabitants into ebon wraiths.
