=== In Your Campaign ===

If the origin theories of wraithlights given above are not enough, here's another one. These undead creatures are the losers in a battle between two ancient races. The gods punished both races for their insolence at destroying much of the lands during their war. The victors were changed into will-o'-wisps. The losing race, who had been subjected to massive necromantic energies from the victors, was changed into today's wraithlights. They see living creatures as their own lost opportunity at existence and, while they harbor no lust for death against them, this is not the same for their will-o'-wisp cousins. Those evil creatures are attacked on sight and woe to any creatures caught in the middle of such a blood feud.

Wraithlights make for engaging adventure material besides the role of adversary as well. An evil cleric, along with his allies, has entered an ancient city swarming with wraithlights to retrieve a powerful relic. The wraithlights are too numerous to fight and it seems the cleric is intimidating them somehow. The pursuing PCs must find a way through the city, and possibly seek help from the wraithlights (who know the city and its perils better than anyone).</onlyinclude>
