Nightgaunt's Story

As the travel weary patrons talked amongst themselves, a malicious and otherworldly presence descended upon the tavern. Unseen by all except the ones with gifted sight, the fearsome shade Nightgaunt floated through the room as if drifting on a calm breeze. Long talons clicked against one another as he fought the urge to mutilate every soul in the room.

The phantom fazed through Anton's table and glared into his eyes with his own sinister gaze. A wicked sneer spread across his incorporeal mouth, revealing several rows of serrated teeth. Though the human would likely not see the invisible spirit and feel little more than a frigid chill in the air, Nightgaunt relished in the fact that he could easily rip him to pieces on the spot.

He resumed his tour of the room, snooping into what each patron was doing. If he did not have strict orders to look and don't touch, this would have been a very entertaining playground for the sadistic shade.

The mischevious shade eventually made its way to where Argus and rested his corporeal form. Nightgaunt circled around the man, completely invisible to the naked eye. He lifted a single chilled claw and dragged it gently along the man's arm so it barely touched the skin. Though the spirit was invisible, it attempted to remain behind the man should he move. He opened his bestial maw impossibly wide, as if to swallow his head hole, but instead a sinister and ghostly moan drifted from it.

"hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAhhh..."

Of course, when the man turned around to confront the noise, there would be nothing there. When Nightgaunt was addressed, he rotated his head and sneered at Chir Batti, who apparently could see him.

"Just having a bit of fun..." the phantom said telepathically.

Nightgaunt snickered. "Yesss... Very. Though I prefer to play with my toys in a more DIRECT manner, my master has given me explicit orders to look and not touch." The phantom then turned to the woman that addressed him and snarled viciously. "And what do YOU want, human?"

When the shot fired, the phantom's body seemed to bend around the bullet like smoke. Nightgaunt hissed and fought the urge to rip the woman apart where she stood, but his master said not to kill today - and Master's will was law.

"My purpose here is of observation..." he retorted before tapping on Argus's shoulder with on of his sinister claws. "No one said I could not have a little fun while I do it." Nightgaunt snickered darkly.

"To each their own..." he replied. "I personally find the terror in their eyes, as I strangle them with their own intestinal track, quite... invigorating." Nightgaunt then lifted his clawed hand and flicked Argus's gun in an attempt to send is sailing across the room.

Nightgaunt snickered again before floating behind Argus. A low growl rumbled from his ethereal throat, which would bring the man's attention to the space behind him. Upon turning, he would see the fearsome shade charge at him in his full terrifying glory of smoke and shadows with talons and teeth bared. His eyes burned with a focused blood-frenzy, dark hatred, and fiery rage as the monstrous spirit released a deafening, ear-splitting, bone-chilling screech that would put a banshee to shame. Several windows and glasses shattered at the noise.

Then, as he would collide with the man, Nightgaunt would faze through him and vanish again.

Cackling again, the phantom whispered into Argus's ear. "Rage, hatred, sorrow, and suffering. All of these I am. All of these I have become." Nightgaunt hissed in his other ear. "Born of angst, despair, and condemnation, I am the epitome of your nightmares - the darkness in your heart given false life." The air around the man would become deathly cold as the spirit breathed heavily and sinisterly into his ear.

Nightgaunt materialized before Argus, with his bestial phantasmal face only inches from his own. A wicked sneer spread across his face, revealing row upon row of razor sharp teeth. The malicious spirit glared at the human with blood-red shimmering eyes that drilled into his soul.

"Make me."

"And you are a very entertaining specimen, mortal." he retorted. The specter felt the hate radiating from the human, and he drank it up like a camel did an oasis. "Casper's got nothing on me. This ain't no friendly ghost that you can share milk and cookies with. I would smash your smart mouth into your anus and see how long you last eating your own shit... Or I could nail your bowels to your wrists and ankles using your ribs and prance you around like a puppet... Fortunately for you, my Master has told me to look and not touch."

"Go ahead, try!" Nightgaunt cackled. "Your silly little guns have no effect on me..." the spirit snarled. "I do in fact like bones... I enjoy breaking them, crushing them, and snapping them. I love the crunching sound they make when you flog them just right, and I relish in the agonizing groans of a man who has had every bone shattered, or better yet... removed." he licked his spectral lips with a long serpentine black tongue. "Yes, I suppose I am a dog - a guard dog, an attack dog, and a number of other things. And if my leash was not tightened right now, you would be dog food..."

Nightgaunt looked away suddenly, as if listening to an unseen presence. The phantom returned his attention to the human. "I serve a powerful necromancer that has taken residence beyond this city. My Master calls me Nightgaunt, and I am his most powerful and loyal servant."

"Master speaks to me always..." he replied. "Unfortunately for you, I like to entertain myself while I work. Master only said I could not touch..." Nightgaunt snickered.

"I have come here on occasion with my master, but this time he has sent me on a solitary mission... of observation." Nightgaunt looked at the human woman across the woman. The phantom maintained his signature sneer as he thought about ripping out her heart and shoving it down her throat. He could feel the anguish resonating from her.

"Agreed..." he growled. "I think I may turn my attention to sssome other essstablishment. Master has taken notice of the dead gathering in the Cursed Wood. Do you know anything of such happenings?"

"Well... then I believe I will investigate." the shade sneered. "Perhaps we will meet again under less favorable circumstances." Nightgaunt chuckled before rising to the ceiling. He fazed through the barrier like one would step through air.

Amidst the dark shadows and stench of decay and gangrene of the prison, a malicious presence of death, chaos, and darkness emerged from the spiritual plain. Unseen by all except those with gifted sight, the fearsome shade Nightgaunt wandered through the dungeon. He gazed upon the dying and tortured prisoners with glee, and fought the urge to play with them in his own sadistic fashion.

As the phantom haunted the chasm of death and despair, the air grew cold and bitter. He drank in the sorrow and agony that dripped from the walls like sweet nectar. Long dagger-like claws scraped the moss-covered walls, leaving gruesome gashes like talons against bones. A dark fog swayed across the ground and stirred like the sea. From his bestial maw rumbled a ghostly moan that would awaken every cursed soul in the building with cold sweat drenching their foreheads.

In response, a frigid gust of wind blew past the boy. A set of unseen eyes drilled into him, observing and listening. Nearby, three long gashes were carved into a wall. The rattling of chains and clinking metal echoed through the room.

"Who indeed?" replied a ghostly voice. A cold breeze drifted past Manik, followed by a distant muffled cackle.

"Rage..." The Voice replied. "... Hatred... Sorrow and suffering. All of these I am. All of these I have become." The spirit hissed in the boy's ear. "Born of angst, despair, and condemnation, I am the epitome of nightmares - the darkness in your heart given false life."

"As for purpose..." Nightgaunt continued. "I have come on a mission of observation... and to seek an audience."

"I am called Nightgaunt..." The Voice responded. From the fog emerged a writhing mass of dark tendrils, smoke, and shadows. Long arms and hands with clawed fingers materialized from the mass. A monstrous demonic face formed from the smoke, revealing a sadistic grin filled with several rows of razor sharp teeth. Glowing crimson eyes glared, unblinking, at Manik. "... For I haunt the night in service of my Master. I serve one that gives Voice to the mouthless Dead. He, my brethren, and myself have taken refuge in the surrounding forests. My Master has taken notice of the Dead gathering in this fortress, and seeks... communion."
