Description
- Name: The Lantern-Bearer of Eldritch Paths
- Classification: Wraith Sentinel
- Body Structure: Gaunt humanoid draped in tattered robes, with elongated, clawed hands. Its face is obscured by the beak-like visage of a raven skull, and it wears a wide-brimmed, ragged hat shadowing its mysterious countenance.
- Color and Texture: A palette of somber blacks and greys, as if woven from the very shadows of twilight. Its robes appear both as cloth and mist, fraying into wisps at the edges.
- Habitat: Roams the forlorn places of the world, from ancient battlefields to forgotten graveyards, wherever the veil between worlds grows thin.
- Temperament: Solitary and silent, the Lantern-Bearer traverses the edges of reality, a silent guardian of the secrets that lie beyond.
- Special Attacks:
- Dread Gaze: The mere sight of the Lantern-Bearer can paralyze the living with a fear that chills the soul.
- Raven Call: Summons a flock of spectral ravens that cloud the skies and obscure vision, disorienting foes.
- Defense Mechanisms:
- Phantasmal Displacement: Can fade into the ethereal plane, rendering it untouchable by mundane means.
- Gloom Aura: Its presence douses the light around it, creating an atmosphere of oppressive darkness.
- Known Vulnerabilities: It is said that the light of pure-hearted can repel the Lantern-Bearer, and sacred relics are believed to ward off its presence.
- Mythology or Folklore: Legends tell of the Lantern-Bearer as a guide for lost souls, leading them to their final rest, or a harbinger of doom for those who wander into its domain.
- Symbolism: Often represented as an omen of change or a transition, the Lantern-Bearer embodies the journey from the known to the unknown, a creature that dwells in the liminal spaces of existence.
