The nightstalkers are the dreams, nightmares, fears, and horrors of mortals made manifest. Although their incursions into our realm are thankfully rare, the devastation caused by such events is absolute on both a physical and emotional level.
WHAT ARE THE NIGHTSTALKERS?
Since the creation of the Abyss, the veil between realities has thinned. Behind the veil lies every nightmare, fear, and terror ever conjured by mortal minds and worse. Where the fabric of reality thins, these ravening entities gather like moths to a candle flame, looking for ingress into the physical world. Terror given form, the Nightstalkers are creatures of dark fable, who hunger for the souls of mortals.
In a world steeped in magic, plagued by warfare, and touched by the gods themselves, it seems inevitable that spirits and shades should haunt the realm of mortals. And yet the Nightstalkers are more than mere ghosts: they are the stories by which parents scare their children abed. They are the monsters that dwell in the darkest forests and demand sacrifice from superstitious villagers. They are the darkest dreams and ill omens made manifest.
