Evidence.
Page 122 PAONA
The opening of Nomad states
The Nomad is an astral being . It manifests as a patch of darkness about .5 meters across. It manifests only to attack. On the astral it apears as a amoeboid creature of impenetrable blackness that is perhaps 1.5 meters across.
The text explains that it posses a host induceing a homicidal rage . Which the nomad usses to feed on the life force of the beings killed by the possessed .The only way to identify one is by astral where it apears as a dark blight on the person or animals aura .

Totally unrelated . We just had an earthquake .
Powers are listed as Compulshion( Homicidal Mania) Essens Drain( Modified)Imunity to normal weapons , and Manifestation .
The kicker is that all of the info is credited to Dunklezahn. Who makes his first post in this book on page 175 .

So is this a Horror ? Has there ever been confirmation ?If it is , is this the first confirmation in canon of them?

They may be minor Horrors. Certainly, beings fitting this description were known in Barsaive shortly before the Scourge.

It may not be a true horror, but more like a construct.

Kind of like a horror servant. Not a true horror per se.

The horrors created lots of contructs to harass the mortal world and act as cannon fodder.

Yes, and I've had to play it by ear with each and try to find the right balance for each creature.

I have all mine penciled in to my Earthdawn and Horrors book, just for those special days I really want to screw with my players. :D

If you want, I could try to make a soft copy list. Can't garauntee it immediately though. Between work and current campaign AND writing to story for it I'm kinda swamped. :grinbig:
