Archons (Reapers and Dreadnaughts)
Archons (Reapers and Dreadnaughts) These "mindless hunters" sought and fed on the lost souls of the Underworld. Like Raziel, they were agents of the Elder God, and as they devoured souls, they fed the Elder and the Wheel of Fate.

Tentacles
Tentacles Despite appearances, the Tentacles were not appendages of the Elder God. They were independant creatures; 'cross-planar' beings that were native to the Spectral Realm. They could enter Nosgoth's Materal Realm due to the decline of the Pillars.

Cenobites
Cenobites The Cenobites were an order of priests who supported Azimuth's rule in Avernus. They resided within the great Cathedral. Outwardly they were benovolent and caring, however this was a façade that hid their true depravity. Secretly they were involved in the worship of the blood god Hash'ak'gik.
