Nightgaunts

==Summary==
The Nightgaunts are a species of flying creatures inhabiting the Earth's Dreamlands, being described as beings of borderline demonic appearance, possessing smooth, whale-like skin, curving horns, and a blank expanse of flesh where one would expect a face to be, and being rumoured to dwell in dark caves near the peak of Ngranek, whose underground they are said to guard. The denizens of the Dreamlands hold great fear of the Nightgaunts, and it is said that they actively avoid searching for information about them, as those who know too much have their dreams haunted by the strange creatures.
They are described as servants of the Lord of the Great Abyss, Nodens, with whom they are capable of defying and fending off even interference from the Ultimate Gods with no fear if need be, and likewise act as foils and natural hunters of the Crawling Chaos' own servants, the Hunting Horrors.
