Wraiths

A Wraith is the spirit of a person who has made an evil bargain to persist after natural death or has been forced involuntarily into its current undead state. This transformation frees them of the limits of a natural lifespan and grants them immunity to diseases, poison, and loss of lifeforce. Wraiths also need to have little fear of cold, and they can see well in the dark. A Wraith's corporeal form has terrible vulnerabilities: fire and most god power are dangerous to Wraiths. Their tenuous form makes them quick and somewhat hard to hit, but also weaker and less hardy.

Wraiths have a strong affinity to magic, especially cold spells, and are very strong spellcasters. However, they cannot use fire spells for fear of self-destruction. Players wishing to use fire spells later in the game may prefer to select another race such as an elf or human, and become a follower of Devourers, if they can live without the race-specific perks.

Wraiths also do not heal naturally or gain sustenance from food. Instead, they have to feed off the living using Wraith Feed.
