Dark creatures are magical creatures who are associated with evil, night, and darkness. They live to oppose their counterparts, the Light Creatures. Many of them serve rulers such as the Demon King or the Underking.

Description[]

Dark creatures are malevolent beings who are dark by nature, or beings who had been turned dark by an outside force. Most are considered "creatures," though there are some mortal beings that fall under this category, such as blixes or witches. While as equally dangerous as their counterparts, they are considered greater threats because of their more violent natures. Caretakers aim to keep dark creatures thriving without endangering the rest of the world.

At magical preserves, dark creatures are kept in restricted areas where they are unable to quarrel with other creatures. This also ensures that human residents living there won't run across them, at least if they are being careful. For most of the year the dark beings are kept in their respective areas, but on specific nights, Festival Nights, they are able to roam free. The more hazardous beings such as demons usually hibernate.

Some dark creatures aren't granted relative freedom in preserves. Instead, they are imprisoned in places such as Fablehaven's dungeons. The worst dark creatures reside in Zzyx, the great demon prison. Some remain free but live separately from humans, such as the subjects of the Underking who reside in the Under Realm.

Abilities[]

Dark creatures' abilities vary. They have control over curses, disease, poison, and black magic. Most are stronger during the night, as they find power in the darkness. Many dark creatures radiate irrational fear, which could paralyze nearby mortals. They also possess abilities such as flight, inhuman strength, and sharpened senses.
