Silently, the entity descends in the dimness, akin to a falling leaf from the ceiling. Tentacle-like appendages, each bearing a wicked barb, extend from its wide bottom, connected by a thin, leathery membrane. At its cylindrical top, a single blood-red eye peers out, mirroring the surrounding cave formations. Before reaction, darkness envelops, and the creature's tentacles entwine your head, neck, and shoulders.
A darkmantle clings to cavern ceilings, remaining perfectly still as it waits for creatures to pass beneath it. From a distance, it can pass itself off as a stalactite or a lump of stone. Then it drops from the ceiling and unfurls, surrounding itself with magical darkness as it engulfs and crushes its prey.
Darkmantles are found throughout the Underdark, but they are equally common on the Shadowfell. Thriving in that dark realm, they fill an ecological niche similar to bats on the Material Plane. Intelligent creatures of the Shadowfell sometimes train darkmantles as guardians or companions.
