| These eerie, misshapen amalgams of flesh are powered by the energies of souls ripped from the recently slain. Soul Reapers are the most primitive form of what is known as a Spectral manifestation. Not fully formed in this world, these creatures are the essence of a demon that only slightly exists in the human world. They drift slowly about, attracted to fresh corpses upon which they feed by literally draining their souls.
Soul Reapers are largely oblivious to the activities of mankind, although they will lash out with a savage blast of spectral "lightning" should they be disturbed. Immediately after feeding, they begin to move rapidly and erratically while emitting an uncontrollable burst of energy that is especially dangerous for anyone within range. Some believe that these creatures also provide some sort of beneficial effect to other nearby demons that have ties to the spectral realm.
