Shockwing
Built from imp bones and imbued with arcane energy, shockwings blend effortlessly into the shadows. The necromancers who create these tiny undead often use them as spies, looking through their eyes. Despite their diminutive size, their arcane energy and fiendish bones make them resistant to magic and turn undead effects, making them difficult to defeat. They can fire a shock o...

Nemreth
The origins of the sentient plant lifeform known as nemreth are a mystery. A single host has enough spores to form armies under the control of a hivemind driven only by hunger and a desire to survive. Only one option exists when the reanimated corpses home to these spores are seen—run. Infected nemreth hosts vary in size and appearance and are typically humanoid corpses. While...

Standing between 3 and 4 feet tall and weighing 40 to 50 pounds, their diminutive stature belies their destructive power. Their leathery skin ranges in hue from light violet to almost black purple, and their burning eyes are ever-present reminders of the chaotic eldritch energy within.

Fallen Watcher
The fallen celestials known as watchers guard the souls of the damned. They typically stand between 7 and 9 feet tall with leathery wings protruding from their shoulders. Although most of their angelic features remain, the corruption from their fall has twisted them, forcing them to hide their faces behind masks out of shame. Most Watchers do not leave their duty stations...
