Wheel
of Time RPG
Shadowspawn:
These creatures are things made by servants of the dark, or just corrupted by the dark. They mostly live in the Blight, though they occasionally venture out to spy for the Dark One and/or Darkfriends.
Rats and Ravens: Though not Shadowspawn, they are said to be servants of the dark, acting as secret spies for the Dark One and his minions.
Trollocs: Basic 'Troops' of the Dark One, crafted of man and beast to provide strong, fierce creatures. Though lacking discipline to be a lone effective fighting unit, once organized they are fierce and often take prisoners to eat later.
Myrddraal: Genetic throwback from the Trollocs human side. No eyes, yet can see perfectly whenever. Can disappear into shadows. Takes a decapitation for it to die - and then it's body takes a while to realise it's death. This is how the dark controls Trollocs - for the myrddraal has the ability to strike fear into anything...
Draghkar: Resembles a tall human male with large, black eyes and a cloak - which is actually a pair of bat-like wings. It sings a compelling song to lure it's victim into it's grasp, and then sucks out the soul and personality, before devouring life.
Darkhounds: Pony-sized black dogs. Wolf-like (but more chilling) howl. Go in packs. Once on a trail, they never give it up - deterents include running water. Leave imprints on stone, but never anything softer. Rumours of a new breed that can only be killed with the One Power.
Gray Men: Darkfriends who completely surrendered their soul to the dark. For all intents and purposes, they are dead. Also called the 'Soulless'. They are so ordinary looking, even the most searching gaze can slip right over them. Thus, they are virtually invisible.
