==Description==
The blight ogre is big and mean, clearly a cousin of the warm climate ogres. With red eyes, yellowing tusks, a warty nose and thick, mottled hide the color of old bruises, he certainly isn't going to win any beauty contests.

==In Depth==
*It is wearing some {{cloot|a|moldy leather armor}}.
*It is carrying a {{cloot|w|heavy stone mattock bearing a sturdy haft wrapped in blighted silverwillow bark}}.

'''Updated as of 3.1'''

==Description==
Surrounded by twitching tendrils of wispy light the nimbus could be mistaken for a particularly ill-tempted will-o'-the-wisp. Closer inspection reveals a pale imp-like body, with four clawed arms twisted with excessive joints. Softly glowing swirls of color drift aimlessly along its skin as it silently hovers slightly off the ground.

The plural of nimbus is nimbi or nimbuses.

==In Depth==
A blast of chill wind heralds a spiteful nimbus as it pops into existence.

Light bursts forth as an infinitesimal crack in reality forms. Four clawed arms reach through the breach, forcing it open further to allow passage for a spiteful nimbus. It examines its new surroundings as the planar rip mends itself.

Comes in varieties of: hateful, maimed, malicious, baleful, malevolent, spiteful, vindictive (possibly more).

Rampaging nimbuses are the invasion flavor.

Has a power similar to [[Divine Radiance]] active.

After death, the body of a nimbus may turn into one or more [[thealstone]]s. 
Example: The lifeless hateful nimbus disintegrates into motes of light that coalesce into a white thealstone.

===Rapid Claw Attack===
The hateful nimbus explodes in a blinding flash of light! The sudden assault leaves you stunned as spots dance through your vision. 
[You're very badly balanced with opponent dominating.] 
The hateful nimbus silently claws at you! However, you manage to twist barely out of the way. 
[You're very badly balanced with opponent dominating.] 
The hateful nimbus silently claws at you! However, you manage a hasty parry. 
[You're very badly balanced with opponent dominating.]

[You're very badly balanced with opponent dominating.] 
===Recall===
Native to the [[Plane of Probability]] the nimbuses are frigid beings of solidified starlight. Like most interlopers from that plane, their usual method of interaction is violent and inexplicably hostile.

The favorite tactic of the nimbus is to briefly gather its strength before giving off a blinding burst of light. The nimbus will generally follow this assault with rapid claw attacks on its now disabled opponent.

Due to their starlight-based physiology, nimbuses are particularly vulnerable to shadow-based attacks. However, they are highly resistant to cold attacks, and will actually draw strength from light-based magics.
===Note===
It is only unusually affected by Moon Mage spells of darkness and light.

__NOTOC__

==Description==
With a pure white coat and gleaming green eyes, the snowbeast appears to be a cruel hybrid of a snow leopard and a timber wolf, except pushed into a hideously twisted and expanded form. Patches of its fur have been rubbed off from its own frantic scratching, revealing a scaley surface underneath. Drooling with a frantic and permanent need for food, nothing sates it so easily as warm, tender red meat.
