'''<big>Fiends of Melaneth</big>'''{{LineageInfobox|image=BoneWraith.png}} | |||
Melaneth is a domain of pitch [[darkness]]. At its heart, the city of Durlossoth eclipses all else. Darkness forever shrouds the ancient stone structures that cluster together in a chaotic mess of twisted alleyways and dead ends that stretch farther than any mortal city. The fiends that [[haunt]] these streets are gaunt and haggard things who often appear emaciated and weak. Despite their frail appearance, fiends from Melaneth frequently venture to the mortal plane, where they make bargains with mortals. Their unmatched cunning extends to every interaction as they willingly negotiate with those seeking power or knowledge. Even the most clever mortals will find these dealings rarely end in their favor. | |||
=== Bonewraith === | |||
Bonewraiths are lanky, horrific blends of bones and shadows. They stalk the Black City of Durlossoth looking for anything to fill their insatiable hunger. Due to their capacity to raise [[undead]], cultists that worship fiends often approach Bonewraiths to make dealings. | Bonewraiths are lanky, horrific blends of bones and shadows.
