Description

The Aether Fiend is a twisted creature that feeds on magical energy. It appears as a gaunt humanoid with taut, translucent skin that pulses with raw energy. Its eyes are black and empty, and it moves with a loping gait that seems almost spider-like. When it attacks, it lashes out with sharp claws and a gnashing maw, but it also has the ability to drain the magical energy from its surroundings, rendering magic items and spells useless.
