Accursed Beasts

Most people know that Dark Magic can do many horrifying things, but twisting life itself is just beyond evil; it's monstrous. - Mage

It is well known that Dark Magic has a reputation in the worst ways possibly conceived when you can bring back the dead and turn someone into a slave against their will, but one of the most heinous things that is done with magic, the corruption of life itself into some darker than it should. Those who manage to survive the dark powers forced on them are often called Accursed Beasts, as their lives might be cursed with them being made into monsters that were never meant to draw breath in this world. Unlike magical creatures using other magics to create them, their very nature is often not their own; instead, the dark magic that made them usually has a firm grip on how they act. Their only purpose is to serve the master who created them as a weapon to be used on their enemies and serve them as long as they live. Whether or not their creator will outlive them or not remains to be as seen as those that lack a master will only breath destruction and death wherever they tread.
