Abberations
Take heed all those who hunt monsters, lest you become what you once sort to slay.
Abberations in Popculture
Vampires, Werewolves and many classic movie monsters. Anything cruel that once was human but is not any more.
Types of Abberation
Ghouls
The faceless presence in back of the photos and the claws scratching against the floorboards at night. Ghouls are the things that never died. They are beings that feed themselves on the bodies and fears of those around them. Twisting themselves into nightmares in the pursuit of a fulfilling meal.
Wraiths
Souls consumed by the burning fire of vengeance. Few things can match their fury. With the hatred of the strongest spilling into the lands and those around them
Hollows
Stripped of their souls, only what is held in others can fill what they no longer hold. Hollows tend to propagate themselves, with emptiness turning on the spirit of the land itself when nothing else remains.
Noita
When the pursuit of power or some great truth takes over all meaning for Life. Those few who succeed are warped into bastions of dark renown. And the many that don't remain as dessications of life.
Abominations
The grim result of nature warped by overwhelming corruption. Abominations are driven to destroy all those around them.
Ayeliads
What many consider to be progenitors of dark magic. Taking a mix of the traits of all other Abberations and adding many of their own. They soke in all manner of dark magic and feast upon it. These vaults of fell energy cannot die, fall or ever be destroyed; at least not without dire consequences for the world around them.
Garlic, Salt and Silver. Stone for the hearts of ghosts and wood for those who drain.
Symbols against Evil
Abberations are repelled by holy symbols. Anything held with enough belief behind it will work. While heads will fill with images of crosses and orbs. Most people do not realise what brings the love to them until someone tries to take it away.
Rethless
Rethlesk / The BeheadedThe things you have seen all around here but are never mentioned. Why acknowledge the source of your world's destruction when there is so much else going on.
Preternatural creatures of foul miscontent. These unnatural creatures often take the form of twisted versions of the more natural fauna. But It is far less in their form than in their alien nature, that they are granted this name. ~Cardinal FeignAt first glance, most aberrations look nothing more than simple creatures, fairly unassuming save for their size. But as observations persist, it becomes clear that they are anything but. Aberrations are natural creatures possessed of supernatural intelligence and ability. Most, possess the ability to project their power into the world, with many having some manner of master over the arcane arts. Of those who hunt monsters, most have met their end at the machinations of a being such as these.

Yes, it is spelt that way on purpose.
