An Aergian Amalgamation forms from failed adventurers’ souls, yielding a violent, desperate creature resembling four monstrous hands with six tentacle-like appendages. It craves the souls of others to devour hope and ambition, its body adorned with gear from past victims.

Found near treasure troves, the aergian amalgamation targets one victim, ensnaring them in a crushing grip using the hands that make up its body, then draining the life force of its grasped foe. It fends off the victim’s allies during the struggle, extinguishing all light sources to heighten the chaos, and protect itself from the hated light.
