Blight Elemental
Blight elementals are the twisted counterpart to the anima
elemental. These entities are created when a forest is
corrupted by the ravenous Blight. The very presence of these
entities is known to cause nearby plants to instantly wither

These elementals only have one goal in mind, which is to
corrupt any living creature with the Blight. Whenever these
entities slay a creature, that creature is tainted with its magic
causing it to rise again as a Blighted creature in less than a
