Blood Wraiths

Similarly to regular Wraiths, Bloodwraiths are the spirit of a creature who's soul was destroyed from utmost hatred during it's death. Much like regular Wraiths they retain little of their previous personality and are set on killing all that lives. They tend to be more vocal than their weaker counterparts and will attempt to taunt and anger their enemies to make them prone to mistakes. Bloodwraiths are usually caused by not only hatred in the heart, but grief. Some magic items, such as the Blood Fury Tattoo, which provoke rage in the user are believed to be strongly connected to the creation of Bloodwraiths, though nothing is confirmed.

Abilities
Bloodwraiths are far superior in combat and tactics than their counterparts and use their rage to fuel their attacks. Their fury becomes a beastial intellect, usually far surpassing that of their original spirit though typically only in matters of battle.


 * Bloodwraiths possess the ability to raise specter's from the corpses of the recently deceased much like Wraiths, but they may also steal a piece of a creature's spirit or soul and create a Will-O-Wisp from it which they can control.
 * Bloodwraiths cannot be killed by normal means, they must be killed using arrows dipped in the most holy waters in the world, no regular holy water will do, it must be from important holy sites. Additionally, the arrows must be tipped with only the finest of diamonds, anything lesser and the magic that destroys the Bloodwraith will not take effect.
 * Bloodwraiths are experts are stealth, able to create a second shadow for a creature, which they hide in and can manipulate the world with despite appearing two-dimensional. To do so, they must be able to interact with the shadow cast by what they want to interact with, though their combat prowess is lacking in this form.
 * Bloodwraiths have the ability to assert control over Undead weaker than them and to a lesser extent create their own undead which they control. The limits of a Bloodwraith's ability to do this are unknown though some have been known to control upwards of 100 undead.
 * Bloodwraiths are heavily resistant to damage, much like their Wraith counterparts. Divine energy sources however have no such resistance and as such it is recommended to use religious artifacts to best remove them.
