Immortal Freedom RPG > Non-player Entities (NPCs)

Wraiths are what’s left of a character’s spirit remnant after its essence has deteriorated, either over time or some other force. Wraiths are terrifying, haunting shades of people, their tattered forms just barely resembling the person they once were. They are beings of pure magic and emotion, unable to communicate except to convey their rage and instill fear.

Wraiths fight until their destruction, being totally unconcerned with their own existence or well-being.
