Draghkar In their service to the Shadow, the Dreadlords corrupted humans to
create some of the Shadowspawn and the Draghkar are among the products of this corruption. The Draghkar look a great deal like a normal man in their appearance. But their eyes are too large, and their skin too pale. The Draghkar appear to be wrapped in a black cloak, but this cloak is actually a pair of batlike wings.
Unlike the Myrddraal and Trollocs
, the Draghkar have little in the way of fighting ability. Instead, the Draghkar use their soft, hypnotic song to draw their
prey to them. Once the Draghkar have their prey, they “kiss” them, draining away the person’s soul. After the soul has been devoured, the Draghkar then drains away life as well.
People rescued from the clutches of a Draghkar are lifeless shells, with no soul or personality left to them. Once a Draghkar has a hold of someone, it is probably best to let the Draghkar
finish its work. The Draghkar are used primarily as outdoor assassins. Their abilities are best utilized at night
and outdoors. They are often used in conjunction with a distracting attack by Myrddraal and Trollocs. An attack of this kind often allows a single target to be singled out and killed by a Draghkar. |
