While greedy, selfish, and just a bit sociopathic, he was largely ignored until he began to gain power. No one knew exactly where his power originated or the secret pact he made with a lich to achieve said power. Shortly after gaining this power, he began to bully local officials and neighbors alike for no reason other than his sadistic desires.Eventually, he gained enough power to subjugate those around him, waylaying travelers, hoarding their valuables, and drinking their blood, menacing the region to the point where he could no longer be ignored by neighboring clans. Unbeknown to all, his undead patron had bestowed upon him the curse of vampirism.Banshee, Typical Banshee: Many banshees are the spirits of a woman who died tragically and have become ghosts to act as harbingers of death to the living.Bluecap: Bluecaps are ghosts of past fey miners.Cyoeraeth: ?Draugr: Any creature that dies who has been bitten [by a draugr] will rise as a draugr the next nightfall.If a creature slain and bitten by a draugr is buried horizontally with a pair of scissors on its chest and its toes tied together, it cannot rise as a draugr.Refusing to bury a slain person horizontally causes it to rise as a draugr (false).A draugr’s bite is infectious, and anyone who dies from it rises the next night as a draugr.Dullahan: A powerful necromancer has created a dullahan to enact revenge on previous slights to them from a local town.Gaishon: ?Gaueko: ?Gytrash: ?Helhest: ?Herne the Hunter, Odin, Wotan, Guro Rysserova, Theodoric the Great, Valdemar Atterdag, Gwyn ap Nudd, Spirit, Muscular Man Clad in a White Elk Hide With Two Enormous Horns or Antlers Protruding From His Head: Herne died long ago, hung from a great oak tree, and his spirit hunts the wood every full moon.Kergrim: ?Myling: The lore behind the myling is exceptionally dark. These are ghosts and spirits of unwanted children, killed by their parents and lacking a proper burial. In certain regions throughout history, parents have committed infanticide for many reasons, not all necessarily rooted in evil as how many societies define it.While many were indeed for evil reasons, the parents were often desperate, with no other options before them, and had to either choose to kill their own children or starve the entire family. Or someone in a position of power forced the mother was forced to kill the child against her will. It sounds horrific today, and it certainly is, but there were no alternatives or preventive measures available to mothers during these parts of history.A ghost of a child is a myling, a poor creature who was killed by their mother.Shug Monkey: ?Yeth Hound: ?Undead Marool: ?Banshee, Ghostly Apparition of an Elderly Woman: ?Banshee, Ghostly Apparition of a Very Young Woman: ?Banshee, Ghost, Harbinger of Death: ?Wailing Banshee: ?Bluecap, Spirit, Small Blue Flame, Ghost of a Past Fey Miner, Dancing Blue Light: ?Excited Bluecap: ?Cyoeraeth, Large Hag-Like Humanoid Surrounded by the Pall of Death, Harbinger of Death: ?Draugr, Undead Humanoid, Mindless Undead: ?Draugr Glamr, The First Draugr: ?Dullahan, Fearsome Creature, Headless Humanoid, Evil Undead: ?Gaishon, Skeleton With a Thin Layer of Skin Pulled Taut Over The Bones, Lesser Undead, Solitary Undead, Insane Babbling Creature: ?Gaueko, Epitome of Darkness, Jet-Black Wolfhound, Spirit: ?Gytrash, Large Black Dog Jet Black With Glowing Orange Eyes Like Burning Coals or Embers: ?Gytrash, Horse Jet Black With Glowing Orange Eyes Like Burning Coals or Embers: ?Gytrash, Crane Jet Black With Glowing Orange Eyes Like Burning Coals or Embers: ?Gytrash, Mule Jet Black With Glowing Orange Eyes Like Burning Coals or Embers: ?Gytrash, Ghostly Creature: ?Helhest, Three-Legged Horse: ?Helhest, Mount of Hel: ?Helhest, Mount: ?Myling, Ghost of an Unwanted Child Killed By Their Parents and Lacking a Proper Burial: ?Myling, Spirit of an Unwanted Child Killed By Their Parents and Lacking a Proper Burial: ?Myling, Ghostly Image of a Child in Great Anguish, Ghost, Spirit, Ghost of a Child, Poor Creature Who Was Killed By Their Mother: ?Yeth Hound, Great Headless Dog With Shaggy Black Fur Standing as Tall as a Man at the Shoulders, Spirit Creature, Tactical Thinking Creature, Monstrous Dog: ?Yeth Hound, Hunting Hound: ?Undead, Undead Creature, Undead Monster: ?Powerful Undead: ?Ghost: ?Evil Ghost: ?Ghostly Soul of a Fallen Warrior: ?Ghost of the King's Dead Wife: ?Ghost, Translucent Form: ?Normal Ghoul: ?Lich, Undead Patron: ?Skeleton: ?Emile, Vampire: All the creatures here, especially Emile, avoid this room as this is where he made his pact with a devil to grant him immense power in return for his soul. The devil tricked him and granted him great power (his vampirism) but slew him on the spot to harvest his soul.Vampire, Blood-Drinking Creature: ?Vampire Spawn: A humanoid slain in this way [from Emile's bite attack] and then buried in the ground rises the following night as a vampire spawn under Emile’s control.A humanoid slain in this way [by Abhartach's bite attack] and then buried in the ground rises the following night as a vampire spawn under Abhartach’s control.Zombie, Normal Zombie: Gaishon are known to slay townsfolk, raise them as zombies, and then sending these newly created undead creatures into combat ahead of it.If a gaishon slays a creature, it returns as a zombie.A humanoid slain by [a gaishon's life drain] attack rises 24 hours later as a zombie under the gaishon’s control, unless the humanoid is restored to life or its body is destroyed.Greater Zombie, Servant: ?Greater Zombie: ?</blockquote>
