The banshee's sorrowful countenance contorts into a visage of furious madness, her eyes ablaze with an unearthly fire. With clenched fists and a wild mane of hair that defies any breeze, she lurches forward, unleashing a deafening roar. As if in a macabre dance, the ethereal flesh of her face begins to peel away, revealing the spectral essence beneath, while phantom flames flicker and dance within her hollow eye sockets.
As twilight envelops the land, ill-fated wanderers find themselves haunted by the mournful wails of the departed. Among these spectral echoes lurks the banshee, a vengeful entity born from the essence of a once-beautiful elven maiden. Manifesting as ethereal figures, they bear a ghostly semblance of their former selves, their visages obscured by a tangled mane of hair, their forms draped in tattered veils that sway and billow in an unseen breeze.
Divine Wrath. Banshees embody the remnants of elves who squandered their exceptional beauty, forsaking opportunities to spread joy and instead manipulating others through their allure. Those ensnared by the banshee's curse find no solace, only anguish in the company of the living. Gradually, their minds and bodies wither away until death seals their fate, transforming them into ghastly undead specters.
Sorrow Bound. Trapped within the confines of their demise, banshees are condemned to haunt the very ground where their mortal lives met their tragic end, unable to stray more than five miles from that accursed place. They are cursed to endlessly replay their past, every memory etched with perfect clarity, yet they persistently deny culpability for their own downfall.
Beauty Hoarders. The vanity that once fueled their downfall persists in death. Banshees covet objects of beauty: exquisite jewelry, masterful artworks, and ornate sculptures. However, they recoil from mirrors, unable to confront the ghastly reflection of their existence. A mere glimpse of their own visage can incite a banshee into a frenzy of rage and despair.
