Bestiary: Astrae

Unlike Demi-Astrae, the 'true' Astrae have an incorporeal form in addition to their entirely magical origins. Spirits and souls without bodies are termed Astrae, as are naturally occuring creatures with no material body. The most common substance that comprises an Astrae is Ectoplasma, a sort of raw magic visible to the naked eye.

Legacy Astrae
Legacy Astrae have at one time been part of something else, usually as the souls of mortals and such.

Ghosts
Main page: Bestiary: Ghosts

The souls of dead mortals, kept in the Mortal Plane by their own willpower. Often confused as Undead.

Spectres
Main page: Bestiary: Spectres

Much like ghosts, but held in this plane by the willpower of others, normally a necromancer of sorts.

Natural Astrae
These Astrae start their existence truly as Astrae, rather than being part of a material body.

Gloimfshs
Main page: Bestiary: Gloimfshs

A spirit visible only through one's eyelids that lives on sand and glass. Until recently thought to be the product of madmen rather than a real creature.

Haunters
Main page: Bestiary: Haunters

Astrae that take possession of objects - usually vases or wheelbarrows, but powerful Haunters can possess carts, wells, or even houses and ships. They spawn far away from civilization, making them rare.
