Endless darkness is the silenced brook. Nightgaunts are renegades of evil. World watchers and rangers working in the Dark Lands that grew hopeless – denied the sunrise for they could not make themselves watch it fade away any longer. They found the cool darkness promise of the stability and assurance. The draw of the deep dark. Errha searches four candidates and manages the corruption and missions of the Nightgaunts.
Nightgaunts become a quasi-lich where they feed on their will power until their body is lean and dry. Then they become a vampire. These are sent into Fallen Dundaria and can mingle with other undead and not be detected. Spies for the unholy trio in the north. Eventually sun sensitivity causes them to have to return after a hundred years – then sent to watch borders of curtain of night in Tolkisson Mountain Range – where inhospitable weather makes no difference to the walking dead. Sometimes they have a chance to feed on rangers and world watchers roaming the area. Nightgaunt have been through the door of night, shadow bond and not detectable as living creatures.
Nightgaunts no longer sleep; gaunt and withered, they are only comfortable in darkness. One every 10 years is made. Eventually they cannot go out in sun, like Orrish under the Sun-Bane, so they are used. All Darkland Rangers know the perils of the whispering voices in the Dark Lands that corrupt their essence.Sunlight sensitive
