==Description==
Tendrils of dark mist swirl around the black zephyr, guided by a constant frigid wind that roars in a circular pattern around its body. Through the baneful cloud, an almost-corporeal skeletal form is visible, complete with a pair of massive tusk-like incisors that jut in a primitive, animalistic manner down from its twisted maw. It stands roughly the size of a Gor'Tog.

==Special attacks==
A bitterly frigid gale begins to stir. 
The howling shriek of the frigid wind pierces your ears as it chills your body, swirling furiously throughout the area. 
Your blood chills and your knees weaken. 
A misty black zephyr grows stronger! (Self heal) 
- Frostbite spell? Stamina and balance damage. Heals them. PFE and MPP do nothing to protect against it. 

A misty black zephyr lurches forward, howling balefully as a swirling mass of dark fog explodes from its gaping maw, settling heavily over the area. 
Rising Mists spell. 
The black fog darkening the area breaks apart. 
- Rising Mists. 

==Atmo messaging==
A misty black zephyr laughs wretchedly, "Asketi take you all!" 
A misty black zephyr rasps, "Mistress, smite these insolent mortals!" 
A misty black zephyr snarls, "The North Wind will rend your souls!" 
A misty black zephyr swirls throughout the area, melding seamlessly with the cold wind. 
A misty black zephyr lurches forward, soaring just above the ground upon the wicked North Wind.

'''Death:''' 
A misty black zephyr slumps to the ground, shriveling into a skeletal husk as its ethereal mist vanishes. (dead - turns into a misty black husk)

Standing up: 
A misty black zephyr's body suddenly disperses into a fine cloud, then reforms in an upright, menacing position. 

You see a misty black zephyr. 
The black zephyr is in good shape. 
It is wearing nothing! 
It is carrying nothing! 

Does have a shield, (dark tendrils).

Approximate order of difficulty: dingy, gloomy, murky, cinereous... atramentous, night dark

Started appearing after the [[Chrysalis]] opened and the [[Akul'tiz]] emerged. Was part of the Akul'tiz invasions. Located now in Li Surmi Gelv, entered through the Wicked Borrow Mine. Comes in various kinds: fuligin (CR: 170), void-black (CR: 185), dingy, dusky, atramentous, et cetera.

==Description==

The atramentous moth is a dark thing cloaked in flickering, baleful shadow, vaguely insectile in form. Its flesh seems nearly as mercurial as smoke, constantly evolving through irregular, chaotic shapes. The creature's bulbous compound eyes are utterly matte and unreflective, each crowned by an antenna which bears an uncanny resemblance to the soft, questing arm of an infant Human, complete with tiny growths resembling inquisitive, chubby fingers. A slick proboscis protrudes from the moth's mouth, dangling obscenely against its thorax. Most striking are the creature's massive wings, spreading fractally above and around its body like drops of dark ink shifting through water.

==Recall==

Said to have been created by the goddess Dergati, these creatures are made from an amalgamation of mundane flesh and shadow stuff. The umbral moth is strongest at night or in overcast weather, flinching from the light of the sun.

The moths feed by grappling with their prey, this proximity usually inspiring terror in the potential victim. Whether this is merely due to the moth's awful visage or some insidious poison or exudation is not known. The strong of mind can resist this attack, depriving the creature of the fear it needs to repair itself and grow stronger. Whether or not the moth feeds successfully, its savage 'kiss' tends to leave its victims tongueless and bleeding.

==Messaging==
A gloomy umbral moth glides in, shadows seeming to warp as it passes.

A gloomy umbral moth glides south in a whorl of shifting shadow.

Stunned: A dingy umbral moth staggers about drunkenly, its massive wings losing coherence.

Standing: A dingy umbral moth's wings beat soundlessly, returning it gracefully to an upright position.

Death: A dingy umbral moth's wings spasm one last time, drifting away from its body like a cloud of acrid smoke. The creature goes still, now nothing more than an ungainly mound of disintegrating shadow.

Now dead, the dingy moth resembles an ungainly mound of rapidly-dissipating shadow.

A dingy umbral moth crumbles into dust, quickly scattered by an errant breeze.

Spawning: A nearby shadow darkens and expands, coalescing into a gloomy umbral moth. Disorienting gusts of feeling roil through the area, accompanying the uncanny beast.

A painful lump rises in your throat as some nearby shadows darken and shift.

==Special Attacks==
Known to have an attack that poisons. 

===Vicious Kiss===
: A dingy umbral moth is abruptly before you, as though disdaining the intervening space. Undulating tendrils of darkness strike at you as the creature seeks to enfold you in an inky embrace. 
''Fail'' 
You just manage to escape the questing, shadowy tendrils, though proximity to the creature's uncanny wings leaves you with the beginnings of a headache. 
''Success'' 
Though you struggle to escape, the moth easily ensnares you, drawing you close in perverse mockery of affection. A shadowy, hand-like appendage grasps your head almost tenderly and you feel the moth's slick proboscis plunge past your lips in a vicious kiss. You gag as the coppery taste of your own blood fills your mouth, your tongue savaged in the creature's brutal quest for sustenance. 
 
Terror blossoms within you, multiplying into vastness. The feeling grows and grows until there is nothing else. Just when you are certain your heart will burst in your chest your fear is simply...taken from you, leaving you feeling hollow and shaken. 
 
The moth discards you as a child would an empty sweet wrapper, looking bigger and more malevolent.

==Where to Find Other People to RP With==
Characters gather in various [[Popular Gathering Places|places]] throughout the game to socialize, though some are more permanent fixtures or more highly trafficked than others.

You can also talk to other characters ICly over long distances via:
* [[Gwethdesuan]]s, known popularly as "gweths". Gweths can be purchased from other PCs.
* [[Item:Albredine crystal ring|Albredine crystal rings]], often simply called crystal rings. These can be purchased from static shops in the game.
* [[Item:Colorless albredine ring|Various colored albredine rings]], which will allow group talk between anyone who has a ring attuned to the same color. These are sometimes dropped by creatures, and can be purchased in static shops in game.
* The [[Thoughtcast]] spell. This spell allows the caster to send a message directly to another and communicate with the target using {{tt|think to}} for a very short time.
* A warrior mage's [[Familiar|familiar]], which can relay messages from its master.
* Some other special items, such as [[Gwererest shell|gwererest shells]] and [[:Category:Whisper_charms|whisper charms]] (also called "bird charms").

Shaidval

2016-04-30T17:32:22Z

{{PC
| name = Shaidval Lo'pahael

| race = Prydaen
| gender = Female

| instance = Prime
| relative = None
}}

Born one year after the death of Lyras to a briefly mated pair, Shaidval was delivered to the care of a transitory Hub near Shard. Shortly thereafter, a difference in opinions in where to settle and what should matter more, seclusion and tradition or cultural adaptation and community lead to most of the population going their own way in small groups, seeking different goals. The group that took the kits was ambushed and mostly killed shortly after, the survivors having been rescued and aided by a old S'kra Mur Warrior Mage who was traveling through the backwoods of Ilithi province. He encouraged them to seek shelter in Shard, which they hesitantly accepted.

When Shaidval was still very young, the Ferdahl Aemmin suggested that some of the kits in care of the Elders who sought shelter there be instructed and educated in Elothean culture as well as Prydaen. With that agreement, Shaidval was instructed in the faith of both peoples and elected to join the Cleric's guild in the Crystal City, arguing that a bridge must be made between the civilizations of the East and those seeking shelter from the West. Armed with a dual education and theologically versed in both faiths, she set out to be of service both to Prydaen adventurers in a traditional sense and the assorted races of the East.

At one time she joined the Triage division of the Crystal Vanguard, pledging to do her part in keeping Ilithi safe. She resides in Sunfall Hub, but spends a great deal of her time traveling to different Hubs and bringing news of events to the Elders. Moon Mages across the continent do their best to bring Prydaen kits separated from their Hubs by whatever manner to her for instruction and counseling. Being of traditional mind, she can most often be found by herself, destroying undeath and threats to the People in service to Tenemlor.

__NOTOC__

==Description==
The hierophant is nothing more than the befouled remains of a fallen priest, corrupted and turned to do the bidding of a false deity. The creature is entirely shrouded in tattered black robes, concealing all about it but its vague shape.

==In Depth==
===Special Attack===
A sinister Maelshyvean hierophant surges with a bloody crimson aura as a writhing ebony tentacle lashes out of its robes and strikes out at you!

The barbed tentacle coils viciously around your left arm, crushing bone and ripping flesh with a good strike!

===Cap Summary===

Simple summary: This creature caps at about 650-700. Detailed summary caps are below:

Evasion basically stops at 700-720

Shield/armor still exp slows at 720

Stealth exp slows at 700 and stops at around 720.

Weapons slow at around 625 and stop at 700.

You can hit them with 350-400 in TM and Dabil magic, but you have to raise your 'spell integrity' high due to their natural immunity to spells (evil).

A good suggestion is to have all mental stats to at least 60. Their spells will kill you quickly if they hit you and usually will result in a stun.

__NOTOC__

==Description==
Upon closer observation, one immediately notices the sharp glint of silver in the scythewing moth's wings. Each wing has evolved to include a razor sharp blade-like edge that hooks downward into a vicious spike. The otherwise delicate-looking creature's body is a dusky midnight blue color, speckled symmetrically with dark purple.

==In Depth==
===Special Attack===
Can spit mucus that inflicts light internal eye bleeders as well as blindness. 
''A stream of viscous red mucus is suddenly expelled from the scythewing moth's tiny mouth, falling toward you!'' 
''The mucous splashes you squarely in the face. Your eyes suddenly feel like they're on fire as everything goes black around you!''

===Spawning===
Dusky Scythewing Moths do not operate under normal spawning mechanics, instead they are a result of a [[Glistening Scythewing Larva]]'s metamorphosis. On average, it takes 195 seconds for a Larva to change into a Moth.

After the moth emerges, the tree it was attached to will eventually become a [[Crag]].

'''Emerging from Cocoon:''' 
A sliver of silver light slits through a translucent pulsating cocoon, spilling a torrent of slimy red mucous all over a rotting maple tree. A massive moth creature emerges from the ruptured cocoon, stretching its bladed wings in a graceful arc.

Approximate order of difficulty: dingy, gloomy, murky, cinereous... atramentous, night dark

Started appearing after the [[Chrysalis]] opened and the [[Akul'tiz]] emerged. Was part of the Akul'tiz invasions. Located now in Li Surmi Gelv, entered through the Wicked Borrow Mine. Comes in various kinds: fuligin (CR: 170), void-black (CR: 185), dingy, dusky, atramentous, et cetera.

==Description==

The atramentous moth is a dark thing cloaked in flickering, baleful shadow, vaguely insectile in form. Its flesh seems nearly as mercurial as smoke, constantly evolving through irregular, chaotic shapes. The creature's bulbous compound eyes are utterly matte and unreflective, each crowned by an antenna which bears an uncanny resemblance to the soft, questing arm of an infant Human, complete with tiny growths resembling inquisitive, chubby fingers. A slick proboscis protrudes from the moth's mouth, dangling obscenely against its thorax. Most striking are the creature's massive wings, spreading fractally above and around its body like drops of dark ink shifting through water.

==Recall==

Said to have been created by the goddess Dergati, these creatures are made from an amalgamation of mundane flesh and shadow stuff. The umbral moth is strongest at night or in overcast weather, flinching from the light of the sun.

The moths feed by grappling with their prey, this proximity usually inspiring terror in the potential victim. Whether this is merely due to the moth's awful visage or some insidious poison or exudation is not known. The strong of mind can resist this attack, depriving the creature of the fear it needs to repair itself and grow stronger. Whether or not the moth feeds successfully, its savage 'kiss' tends to leave its victims tongueless and bleeding.

==Messaging==
A gloomy umbral moth glides in, shadows seeming to warp as it passes.

Stunned: A dingy umbral moth staggers about drunkenly, its massive wings losing coherence.

Standing: A dingy umbral moth's wings beat soundlessly, returning it gracefully to an upright position.

Death: A dingy umbral moth's wings spasm one last time, drifting away from its body like a cloud of acrid smoke. The creature goes still, now nothing more than an ungainly mound of disintegrating shadow.

Now dead, the dingy moth resembles an ungainly mound of rapidly-dissipating shadow.

Spawning: A nearby shadow darkens and expands, coalescing into a gloomy umbral moth. Disorienting gusts of feeling roil through the area, accompanying the uncanny beast.

A painful lump rises in your throat as some nearby shadows darken and shift.

==Special Attacks==
Known to have an attack that poisons. 

===Vicious Kiss===
: A dingy umbral moth is abruptly before you, as though disdaining the intervening space. Undulating tendrils of darkness strike at you as the creature seeks to enfold you in an inky embrace. 
''Fail'' 
You just manage to escape the questing, shadowy tendrils, though proximity to the creature's uncanny wings leaves you with the beginnings of a headache. 
''Success'' 
Though you struggle to escape, the moth easily ensnares you, drawing you close in perverse mockery of affection. A shadowy, hand-like appendage grasps your head almost tenderly and you feel the moth's slick proboscis plunge past your lips in a vicious kiss. You gag as the coppery taste of your own blood fills your mouth, your tongue savaged in the creature's brutal quest for sustenance. 
 
Terror blossoms within you, multiplying into vastness. The feeling grows and grows until there is nothing else. Just when you are certain your heart will burst in your chest your fear is simply...taken from you, leaving you feeling hollow and shaken. 
 
The moth discards you as a child would an empty sweet wrapper, looking bigger and more malevolent.
