Series lore and name
The wight prowler is a pale humanoid monster wearing a purple ragged cloth and a blue hood and it is armed with a butcher knife. These wandering undead wights that search through the depths of dark caves with the ever-lit lanterns, always ready to slash at prey with their sharp cutting cleavers. When their ambushes go awry they hurl their magical lanterns at enemies, causing harm with purple flames. They've also been known to look out for their lives, defending against strong attacks from all enemies.
