The Nameless
The fiercest of creatures one could find while fighting at the gates of The Maw, these undying creatures are documented as the supposed lieutenants of the endless hordes of monsters that swarm up from below.
Nothing is known about where these creatures come from. All attempts to summon, interact with or learn more about these creatures results in failure - they seem to exist entirely outside the natural order of this world.
There are 7 nameless, each given a tongue-in-cheek nickname by soldiers according to the rough accounts of their appearances or powers. These seven beings are rare to see, but a sighting of one heralds much death and destruction amongst the defenders of this world.
Once thought to be mortal, The Knights of the Eclipse document that these creatures cannot be slain by any mortal means - these foul creatures returning from death generations later in new forms.
Stories are told of the Nameless to care children of the Empire into submission, or to scare them away from their curiosity towards the dark corners of this world.
