Fänger

Fänger are necrotic entities that only manifest in pools of Void Blood. They seem to possess no will of their own, and only exist to grab and pull unsuspecting victims into the pools they spawn from, therefore transporting them to Purgatory.
== Etymology ==
The name Fänger is of German origin, and translates to "catcher". This refers to their primary purpose of grabbing any living human who draws near and dragging them downwards.
== Description ==
Typically only the top half of their body is seen, which resembles a bloody red skeleton with no eyes emerging from the pool of blood. How much of them is revealed seems to be relative to how close someone is before they attack, in some cases only the arms and hands of the Fänger will be visible when they try to grab someone who is near the edge of the Void Blood's border.
== Hunting and Other Behavior ==
Fänger mostly remain unseen if there are no humans close to the pool of Void Blood. Not all pools have Fänger within them, but it is impossible to tell whether or not they reside in it until it is too late. Recorded encounters with them all end with struggles as more and more Fänger converge on the target to attempt to pull them in. Upon successfully pulling a victim in, they will look around for a while before sinking into the Void Blood. Should they be unsuccessful in capturing a victim, they will stare at the target from a distance for a little while before retreating below. Very rarely, and seemly for no reason, Fänger may rise and step out of blood pools and wander in a specific radius surrounding their entry pool. They seem to be non-hostile in this state, however it only lasts for around half an hour before they return to their spot and resume normal hostilities. 
== Countermeasures ==
Fänger are spectral entities, and thus are completely immune to all conventual weaponry. Really it is just recommended that you avoid Void Blood in the first place.

File:Fanger 1.png|Fänger typically attack in large groups. Most cases they won't leave the Void Blood pool, only exposing their arms or upper half to try and snatch prey. Under rare circumstances, they may choose to emerge from the pool and wander in close proximity to their emergence point before returning.
File:Fanger 2.png|Fänger can be slightly varied in appearance. Strangely, some appear to wear clothing. This has lead to theories suggesting the disturbing possibility of this being the fate of those who get dragged down into Purgatory by these lost souls.
