Wight
Wights are risen in a similar manner as a Shambling Corpse, except the resulting undead is much more powerful. They rise from those with above average or strong ties to the Elan. A Wight retains much more of their skills and abilities in life than a shambling corpse. If an individual was a skilled swordsman in life, the Wight might be as well. If the individual was a skilled Theurgist, the wight may retain the ability to cast magic.
The Wight does not retain memories or any ties to those they knew while living however and there is no ability to reason with them. As with other undead and creatures, Voidshapers can control wights as well, but are much more difficult to manipulate and control than some undead.
Basic Information
Dietary Needs and Habits
Less ravenous than shambling corpses, wights do not seek to devour the living. They do seek the living to kill and maim however for reasons unknown.
