[366 Days of Monsters] 23/366 - Vile Fog

Added 2020-01-23 15:16:23 +0000 UTC

Vile fogs are malicious elementals that look like dense clouds of mist. The Striped Conjurers of Karmithyash summoned these creatures from Mayhem as a defense against the Pressonians during the Conjurer Wars of the early sixth century. They are specifically tuned to consume the extrinsic energy of Pressonian defense magics. During the Fall of Brassolet, the fields were covered in vile fog.

Like many of the creatures created for the Conjurer Wars, the vile fogs were left behind by the rakshasa, treated as waste. Now the fogs haunt The Summer Land and areas around Presson's Enclave, grim reminders of past conflicts.

Because of this abandonment—and with no easy way to return to Mayhem—the vile fogs feel confused and betrayed by their temporary masters and the creatures of Casar as a whole. In the presence of a danaavrakt, the elementals lash out, hellbent on the destruction of all life—unholy or otherwise.
