A Lantern Wraith is a type of undead creature in Dungeons & Dragons, often associated with eerie, haunting environments. It is a malevolent spirit that is bound to a lantern, which it carries to guide its twisted path. Lantern Wraiths are usually created when a powerful and tragic event occurs, such as the violent death of a person who was consumed by regret or sorrow, causing their spirit to linger in the mortal realm. Their ethereal forms are often shrouded in a cloak or tattered garments, and their face is a mere mask of torment. 

In combat, the Lantern Wraith is a terrifying adversary, using its lantern to emit a supernatural glow that causes fear and confusion. The light from the lantern can disorient or even paralyze its victims, drawing them into a state of hopelessness and despair. The creature’s touch is deadly, draining the life force of those it comes into contact with. 

Lantern Wraiths are known to haunt graveyards, abandoned homes, and other forsaken places, where they continue their endless wandering in search of lost souls to torment. They are often seen as manifestations of unfulfilled death, remaining in the world until their curse is broken, which may require an act of redemption or the fulfillment of an unresolved purpose.

These creatures are commonly encountered by adventurers in dark, eerie settings, serving as ominous reminders of the thin boundary between life and death. In Dungeons & Dragons, their presence brings a sense of foreboding and danger, and confronting a Lantern Wraith often involves not only combat but unraveling the tragic tale behind its existence.
