Descriptions
An Abyssal creature that creeps through rifts in the hidden depths, quietly watching this world. Its eerie, faceless form is said to be nothing more than a projection, while its true body exists only as a formless mass of pure Abyssal energy.
In the Ley Line memories, its corrupted form endures like a wound that never heals, consuming all life that dares to stand against it...

Lord of the Hidden Depths: Whisperer of Nightmares — Normal
An elite officer of the Fatui Oprichniki who specializes in close combat using a giant blade.
Whether it be in the war against the dark calamity or against those ignoramuses who dare stand against the Tsaritsa's ideals, those who breach at the tip of the spear suffer the greatest casualties. Those who survive a hundred battles only to fall all the same become a fearful memory in the Ley Lines. When intruded upon by a powerful outsider, such formidable warriors are the chaotic Ley Lines' perilous response...

Battle-Hardened Fireblade Shock Trooper: Normal
One of the two sovereigns who once stood at the apex of the aberrant species of the Fontemer, and the subject of many a tale among sailors. Avoiding predation, it keeps hunting and eating and so continues to grow, constantly seeking out suitable shells to become its new armor.
In the Ley Line memories, one such crab reached unparalleled might — the greatest of the Armored Crablords. Clad in heavy plate, it would confront any and all threats without hesitation.
