Theystrive for ultimate disorder and destruction, and to this endcovet the destruction of all they behold. Order is an abhorrenceto them and these creatures are the manifestation of the forcesof chaos.of crimson joy:and his dark secret lovedoes thy life destroy.”-William BlakeFallen Ones (Nanus Improbus)Swarms of these impish terrors have been known to comeout of the night and tear apart a sleeping village in minutes.Small of stature and simian in appearance, these creaturespossess surprising strength and unnatural agility. Other thankilling, the only act which gives them pleasure is breeding, soexpect to encounter them in large packs.The small size of these devils does fill them with cowardice,however, and this fear can be used against them. They preferto attack under the guise of darkness and in large numberswhenever possible. If they are shown great strength, preferablyby killing one of their kind, they will retreat and regroup. Donot turn your back on them, though, for their appetite fordestruction will eventually overcome their caution and theywill attempt to strike again.54
