Howdy folks!
While I've tagged this as 4e, since the creatures made their debut in an issue of Dragon and have 4e stats, the thread is pretty universal in scope.
One of the big enemies of my campaign so far have been fell taints--they're weird little creatures from the Far Realm that are the initial manifestation of some bad, bad stuff happening to my homebrew setting. For a full write-up, see the article in Dragon 376, but in a nutshell, they're bizarre, alien creatures that are basically silent sky jellyfish that do psychic damage. I don't believe the initial article really says where the creatures come from, but for my purposes, we're going to say they're coming from the Far Realm.
I play them up in game for being very strange, alien, and frightening, and they can be tough opponents in the game, and they really capture the feel that I'm going for...but i just cannot stand the name.
So, ENWorld...help me. What's a better name for these creatures?
