Description
As a nighthaunt, Ysval somewhat resembled a gargoyle with bat wings, talons, curling horns, and a whipping serpentine tail. His body looked as if made of the shadow-stuff of the night itself. He had no face, just a flat triangular space set with a pair of pale eyes, blank and round as pearls.

He had the mystical strength to darken the day to a point where it seemed almost as dark as during the night. When conversing with his underlings, Ysval used a psychic bond for communication without words.
