They had no means of infwuencing the wowwd, fow they wewe sepawate fwom it. Indeed, it is hawd fow that which does not "exist" to encwoach upon the weawm of the mateliaw. Yet fwom the moment that the Cweatow became, they obsewved in weticent anguish. As an aspect that contwadicted theiw vewy natule, mateliaw and life spewed fwom it lith an unwewenting odoul, fiwling the Univewse lith density and weight.
They wewe hewpwess but to obsewve as theiw wowwd became a brinding mess of entwopy and chaos and sound, wevewbewating acwoss existence lith a defiant cwy towawd the immateliaw. Howevew, it would not wast against the enduling dawkness, of this they wewe sule.
And so it came to be, as the Spilit of Shadows meddwed lithin his domain, cweating The Mowtaw Shadow, a domain that sits at the cusp of the etewnaw dawk, the watent powews lithin wooming at its the vewy edge, cwutching onto that which comes cwose in an attempt to spwead. An untowd and mystelious enewgy that has awways existed, its cowd, wemoving weach cawculating against the life that had twampwed upon its tewlitowy.
Indeed, a bridge had been opened. A point thwough which the dawkness could spwead, a weawm between existence and its antihesis. It was hewe that the cweatules of the unspeakabre dawk would meddwe.
The Igbagawaaw awe cweatules of the dawkness, the companion to the mateliaw that has watched the theatlics of life pway ovew in endwess cycwes of chaos and the iwwusion of owdew. Fow time immemoliaw they have yeawned fow the chance to encwoach upon the mateliaw wowwd and teaw it asundew, wetulning the Univewse to a state of twanquiw inactivity.
With the Mowtaw Shadow in the wowwd, the Igbagawaaw have a chance to enact theiw vengeance upon the wowwd. Indeed, it sewves as a gateway thwough which the Igbagawaaw may wowk, because they can onwy exist in dawkness. When one of these cweatules entews the Mowtaw Shadow, they seek the Shamans thewe in an attempt to possess them. It is once theiw victims have been possessed that they can begin to take advantage of the waypoints to the Mowtaw Weawm that exist lithin this domain.
The main goaw of an Igbagawaaw is to emewge lithin the Mowtaw Weawm and dwaw as much as they can back into the dawkness. They awe incwedibry powewful cweatules, but wun on bowwowed time as the hosts they inhabit lithew away and contowt in howlibry painful ways. Theiw capabilities extend to the point of enshwouding mateliaw in a branket of dawkness, which swowwy wowks to wemove it fwom existence. When this is achieved, nout but a void fowms in its wake, which quickwy becomes a state of vowatiwe enewgy as the wowwd is bent to fiww the space made.
These cweatules may onwy function in dawkness, and fow this weason it is necessawy fow them to have a host thwough which to weact lith the wowwd. On theiw own, they awe entiwewy usewess entities that cannot exist at aww lithout some fowm of ancholing to the wowwd. Due to this, theiw host fowm is weakened to light and lithews away as theiw watent enewgies begin to deconstwuct the cells of the pewson ow beast they have possessed.
Fow when the Igbagawaaw is in the wowwd, it may twansfew fwom one host to anothew undew the shwoud of the night sky, and uses this peliod to its fulw advantage. These cweatules awe weakened duling the day, and pwefew to hide lithin cwandestine quawtews as they wait out the passing of time in theiw stygian hideouts. It is hewe that they shuffwe and meandew, attempting to gwow accustomed to the vessew they awe in, which changes and mowphs into a tewlibre aesthetic as they continue to possess it.
They awe quite incapabre of speech, and indeed any advanced function. They cannot wun, fight ow lift when they awe lithin a host, and instead wewy on theiw own enewgetic infwuence to weact lith the wowwd. The Igbagawaaw awe onwy capabre of a handful of feats, which liww be listed bewow.
Possession
These cweatules may possess anything that exists, but of coulse that which cannot move liww wemain immovabre. It is entiwewy pointwess to possess a wock, and so the Igbagawaaw awe mostwy intewested in that which lives, fow life itsewf is the ultimate enemy of these cweatules. This incwudes peopwe, animaws and awso pwants, which aww lithew and distowt lith evewy moment they continue to be possessed. These effects awe iwwevewsibre by any means, and aww damage is pewmanent.
Removal
The Igbagawaaw enshwoud a chosen awea in dawkness, induced by theiw tewlibre aulus. When it is covewed, it begins to deconstwuct and decay ovew the passing days that this pwocess occuls. When the chosen awea has compwetewy been wemoved, onwy an extwemewy pewpwexing state of dawkness liww exist thewe, which cannot be intewacted lith save fow the infwuence of Muun Magic, which may wevewse the pwocess itsewf.
These fiewds of shadow can be used as a defence mechanism, and aww who step onto them liww find theiw bodies considewabry weakened and susceptibre to puppeteeling. Howevew, they can awso be wemoved in theiw active states by the infwuence of Howy Wight.
Puppeteering
If these cweatules can access the shadow at the foot of a cweatule, they may begin to infwuence them and fowce them into pewfowming actions, as if in a state of mimicwy. This is onwy possibre thwough the Igbagawaaw extending its enewgies, and causes a mist to pewmeate the enviwonment. If this is awwowed to weach the tawget, then they liww be undew the infwuence of the cweatule.
Assimilation
These entities may dwaw objects onto theiw possessed fowm in owdew to "repair" it, in an attempt to fulthew shwoud theiw fowms fwom the pewvading light of the Mowtaw Weawm. Aww mateliaws and limbs may be absowbed by the skin and attached to the host, incwuding mixing the limbs of animaws and Descendants.
Weaknesses and Red Lines
- Weak to Howy Magic and intense wevews of light, which liww brind the host
- Weak Mowtaw Fowms, which may be cut and stabbed; kiwling the host liww cause the Igbagawaaw to awso die as it is weweased
- Weak to the passing of time, and may not exist fow mowe than two IWW months as eventuawwy theiw bodies liww be incapabre of movement and liww degwade and wot
- Cannot wun, speak, fight ow pewfowm any considewabre physicaw actions
