About Nightmares
The creatures and denizens who make the Land Of The
Dead their home are known as Nightmares. They are constucts
of pure entropy and follow few of the rules of life
as it is commonly understood. Nightmares are often grotesque,
or inexplicably bizarre. Sometimes they resemble creatures
of legend or myth. It is important to remember that
although they simulate life, they are not truly alive
at all.
Undead are also common to the Land Of The Dead. When
a soul cannot find rest for one reason or another, it
can take three paths. It may become a 'spirit' in the
land of the dead (this is what has happened to you as
a PC). It may become undead and remain in the realm
of the living. Or it may become undead and walk the
the lands beyond the veil. Undead instrinsically hate
spirits because they have retained their identity, which
undead envy. They are a threat, but they can be conquered
and controlled by the use of 'shifts'.
'Statics' are spirits of entropy which have become
one with the Land Of The Dead, fusing with the terrain
itself. Statics are extremely dangerous.
'Dark Servants' are creatures in the employ of one
of the five Lords Of Death. These creatures have their
own aims and goals, depending on what their master commands.
Like most things that reside beyond the veil, they are
dangerous too.
The thing to remember is that while all these things
are terrible threats... so are you. All players are
spirits. If you survive you are capable of becoming
a major power too.
