Spectre

Spectre
Level 9 (+5)
"You killed Timiny! How dare you?! Give me back my master!"
——Alterus Blackwind, encountering the master of a Spectral Spawn
A Spectre is an incorporeal undead humanoid hat appears much how it did in life, moments before its death. For this reason, their faces are often twisted in horrific expressions of fear, anger, or surprise, as they approach mortal victims. The Spectre seeks to drain the life from all living things in the futile hope that it may regain some measure of warmth in its cursed state. Should a Spectre slay a living humanoid, that creature will rise again as a spectral spawn under the complete control of the Spectre that killed it. Should a mortal encounter a Spectre, it is wise to keep a sharp lookout for additional monstrosities drifting in from out of the darkness.
