[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 8670710, member: 326"] Envision the terms Flesh & Blood, Bone & Spirit (or Shadow). So... Zombie < Mummy < Hunefer = Flesh 'chain' Ghoul < Vampire < Nosferatu = Blood 'chain' Wight < Death Knight/Lich < Cimeriel/Demilich = Bone 'chain' Shadow < Ghost/Wraith < ? = Spirit 'chain' Now imagine these chains overlap, so Bone (spellcaster) + Spirit = an Akalich, Bone (martial) + Spirit = Abholos ("Murder Mist") IIRC, the Welkin was the overlap of the Flesh & Blood chains. Hunefer, Nosferatu, Cimeriel & Demilich were all Demigod rank Akalich & Abholos were of Intermediate God rank Overlapping 3 would give you and Elder One of some type. Overlapping all 4 would have you arrive at the first one...Death/Entropy I can't take credit for the Krangar, that was a monster S'mon (my DM) came up with (or maybe he was inspired by some sci-fi novel) and this was designed before the Far Realm or Pseudonaturals were even a thing, although to my knowledge we never fought one. Krangar were basically Huge (Psionic* ) Crabs with vorpal pincers. Visually I always saw them like Fighting Fantasy's Slime Suckers...but with crazy pincers; but I plan to detail them in the book [B]after [/B]this one so I might change things between now and then...I actually just saw some amazing concept art that would be cool. *or Psionic immune - I can't recall exactly. I appreciate it. I really hope you like this new book. :) [/QUOTE]
