"Four. You believe Ratpack?" He asked.
"Yes. From your description, she reminds me of an old friend of mine who passed away long ago." Lith nodded.
Then, to Zolgrish he asked: "How can he see ghosts? What kind of creature is Ratpack?"
"It would be nice if he could." The lich sighed.
"It would mean that at least he isn't a complete failure. Ratpack is a chimera, I made him by assembling the corpses of an elf child and a Balor. Then, I used necromancy to raise the corpse as a vampire.
"He was supposed to be the ultimate being. An immortal, natural shapeshifter vampire in perfect tune with the world energy like an elf, and with a Balor's Evil Eyes, capable of amplifying each of his spells.
"Instead he kept the build of the child and the inability to handle the world energy of the Balors. Becoming a vampire messed things up even more because neither elves nor Balors usually become undead. That's why Ratpack is Ratpack.
