Darklings!

Ever since I read the description of Dark Creepers in the Pathfinder monster manual I loved the idea of these horrible gross and grotty little creatures, wrapped up in filthy rags with only their nose and fingers showing while they sneak around furthering the nasty ends of Dark Stalkers

When I drew them I wanted to take them a step further and make them even more wretched denizens of the Shadowfel. Inspiration came from the Kilmoulis, a brownie with a huge nose and no mouth, so I took this idea and decided my Darklings you only saw a nose poking out because that’s all their faces were, a big nose and some long floppy ears

Now they would be even creepier, snuffling around dark places while leaving a gross snot trail and communicating with each other through sniffs, sighs and whistles like really grotty Clangers
