Characteristics[edit]
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 coloured in various shades of black and dark greys. According to their monster description, these demons 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 curse upon an unlucky soul. They attack using wicked black scythes which they conceal within the folds of their robes.
