Namen

Evil spirits that started appearing in Epic shortly after the eclipse. The namen take on physical form while in light which limits fighting them to the daytime to nearby fire, though enhancer abilities do not effect them. Namen go through several stages of increasing power and size.

1) First spawn. These namen are about the size of a basketball and have no attacking abilities. Namen stay in this form for about 20 days.

2) Troll. From 20 days to 3 months of life, these namen are about 4 feet tall and have sharp claws and teeth.

3) Algore. Once 3 months old, the namen will start developing thick scales all over their body like alligators. The claws become twice as long and retractable, and the teeth more inline and thicker. The algore is roughly 6 feet tall and walks like a normal human.

4) Wraith. The wraith is always in a partial spirit form which makes physical objects pass through their bodies, and enables then to fly. The wraith is otherwise unidentifiable from the algore, and transformation from algore to wraith does not follow any specific time-frame.
