Ghost/Undead

Dungeons, Ruins, Long-abandoned Underground Areas

Selfish, Jealous, Lustful.

Men's Spirit Energy, Demonic Energy of other Specters of the Void.

A peculiar mamono only found in the forgotten recesses of the world, these transparent ghostly figures haunt the halls of where they were betrayed and butchered and forgotten in ages past. A tale of how these monsters came about when 4 adventurers went into a vast ever-reaching dungeon and slowly went mad by the days they spent in it, it had finally reached its peak when all of them went insane with paranoia and jealosuy. One killed the other three but their spirit did not rest, instead rising instantly as transparent spirits with crimison eyes and no lower body. The dungeon itself had no monsters and all the traps were strangely inactive, pentagram of unknown orgin were littered across the rooms before their madness took hold and apparently its uses were revealed. When the spirits went over to it, they suddenly transformed into beasts, goblins, giant spiders and large fish-like creatures.

These spirits wore the surviving adventurer down and killed him... the one who killed him, was resurrected in the same spot of the former adventuer was there before... and a new spirit had formed of that same corpse as well. And so, a vicious cycle was formed, the adventurer that was resurrected would explore new rooms, battle and kill beasts, be wore down, go lower into the dungeon, gain loot, and die when new more powerful monsters like minotaurs and lesser demons were controlled by the spirits. Then it would start again, more gold, more loot, more powerful monsters, repeat, repeat, REPEAT!

Until, a adventurer was strong enough to go into the portal and face the guardian that protected the entrance that led out of the massive inescapable dungeons... however, the spirits were able to control the now corpse of a long forgotten guardian, however they weren't strong enough to control it in one being and had to share control of the beast's parts, lest the adventurer escape... And he didn't, the adventurer was fully slain by the possessed guardian and the spirits escaped with one single massive body into the open world... however, the guardian was slain shortly after by Order knights that had since forbidden anyone from traveling the dungeon... But the specters were not slain and they escaped with their intangeible bodies to spread across the land.

Well, thats the backstory! Onto the actual reason why you came here!

Corpses long since left dead (or recently) and were killed in a fit of madness caused by paranoia, may form these specters but they are neligble to none, as they cannot possess living beings like a normal ghost and must search out for a dungeon to attach to. Once attached to a dungeon or something akin to that, the specter can no longer leave that dungeon unless under certian circumstances described below. Also, pentagrams will form in some of the rooms of the dungeon, seeable only by that specter and others. When a specter touches one of these pentagrams a flash of red energy will appear and the specter will transform into a corporal random monster (now mamono.) While in this form, the specter gains most if not all of the abilities regarding to that mamono (except for loophole abilities, like you know... Wish and stuff like that.) And has a basic understanding of how to use her new body for pleasure... or combat. Normally, Specters of the Void are encountered from 2-4 at a time. Whenever a specter 'slays' a women or another specter in 'human' form, the specter loses its abilties, crimson eyes, and ghostly appereance into what is essentially a human women.

This 'human' form is highly sought for by Specters of the Void, and they would do anything to get it back... including 'slaying' other specters or women to become so. When a specter transforms into a human, they gain a fragile 'mask' of spirit energy, that slowly grows once they 'slay' other specter's 'mamono' forms but are more easily defeated then normal humans would be, and once a specter is drained of its 'mask' the energy transfers into the specter that 'slayed' her and she transforms into a 'human' form.

When a women enters the dungeon that houses Specters of the Void, they will immediately come for her and wait for any oppurtunity to strike, if a women is drained of her spirit energy by the strikes or more intimate methods by the specters 'mamono' form she will transform into a specter and the specter that drained her transforms into her 'human' form, albiet with a bit more powerful 'mask' of energy. Of course the former human will be a vengeful state and will wish to get back her form most of the time and attach herself to the dungeon so that she may use the penagrams and get back her form.

As this semi-pleasurable cycle contuines, the specters inevitably going deeper and deeper into the dungeon, they will gain more powerful mamono forms to transform into. With some cases going as high as a dragon or baphomet. This is based on that when a specter damages a human form specter or regular women, that energy that is absorbed through the strike goes into a spirit energy 'bank' of sorts that allow the specter to choose new mamonos that she can take the form of. A human form of a specter also grows in strength, but not in strikes she deals but more like how many specter mamono shes 'slain.'

Once a 'human' specter has enough power, the mamono may begin to fight the 'boss' of the dungeon, if there is no boss, the other specters will conglomerate in a sizable arena into one random massive mamono, with each specter controlling parts of said mamono. If the human specter wins she is no longer attached to the dungeon and escape and roam freely to her hearts content.

If the giant mamono wins, all three are no longer attached to the dungeon and can also escape, however they are stuck in this mamonos form until that form 'dies' and they just pop out of it. At this point, a Specter of the Void has gained enough power to form pentagrams of her own and does not need to attach herself to any one place to do so. Same goes for a human specter that has escaped and is also slain... doesn't make then any less angry however.

If a man appears in the ruins, their priorites instantly switch from 'becoming human' to 'wooing the man with the sexiest monster.' Using their possibly multiple and random forms they try to quickly find out what turns the man on, while also fighting it out amongst each other... A man may unwittenly help a specter throughout the trials set out by the others until she is fully out of the dungeon or just be in constant mood whiplash as these specters fight and seduce over him. Due to their multiple innate techniques... it can come quite close to the wire and it isn't far fetched, despite a specters selfish nature, for harems to be formed. Even more so for if the 'boss' mamono survives the encounter and all three decide to take the man in for pleasure and marriage.

A specter that has enough spirit energy from a man can form her ghost form semi-corporally, allowing her to indulge in pleasure and sex without the use of forming pentagrams and transforming into a potentially random mamono. A Specter of the Void tries to please her husband as much as possible with all different forms at her disposal... however, due to a pentagrams randomness at selecting mamono, it may take a while for anything worthwhile to show up... Though makes it quite interesting in bed.

On another note, a Specter of the Void can possess traps in order for them to activate on their command, such traps no matter if they did or not, deal damage as if they were laced with demon realm silver. A specter can also grab onto the globs of ectoplasm and form slimes from such things, but such slimes are not mamono and the specter can possess them like the traps.
