==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Draped in dark garb and donning a fearsome mask that conceals all but their white eyes and teeth, the dark minister is a dastardly practitioner in black magic. Like all monsters hailing from the [[World of Darkness]], their bodies and clothes are colored in various shades of black and dark greys. Having mastered the [[Woosh]] line of spells, they tear through parties with ripping tornados and are not above bestowing a [[Curses|curse]] upon an unlucky soul. They attack using wicked black scythes which they conceal within the folds of their robes.

According to their monster description, these [[Demon family|demon]]s perform dark rituals in an attempt to bring Rhapthorne back after he was sealed away. Having mastered the [[Woosh]] line of spells, they tear through parties with ripping tornados and are not above bestowing a [[Curses|curse]] upon an unlucky soul.
