    Caslan Corfs are creatures that come from the realm of Chaos. These creatures are said to be highly dangerous and adaptable, being able to mutate to better survive in any environment. There blood is said to have the secrets of evolution which can cause similar mutations in any organism that ingest it.   There hasn't been and dealings with such creatures as no one has used a gateway for hundreds of years. Meaning so far the only way such an encounter to happen is if there are still any hidden nest in a Lazari ruin or if someone was to encounter a rift to the realm of chaos. Luckily so far those possibilities have only been found in stories of old.
