Vexes[]
Light blue humanoid soulspawns with white wings which permits flight, glowing white eyes, and devilish smile. They possess sharp claws as natural weaponry and can be summoned by low-level soulbenders such as illager evokers. More advanced soulbender users (such as Atlas) can summon invisible vexes and connect the Vex's POV to his mind and project it. They are immune to sunlight.
Phantoms[]
Soulspawns that bear resemblance to Ichtyopterans of Enderia. They have blue skin with some bones exposed and green eyes. They are able to fly.
Creepers[]
Quadrupedal soulspawns with green skin and frowning expression. During the tyranny of Obsidian Legion, they were used as living bombs, though after centuries most forgot how to do it, and instead rely on bites to kill their prey. They are concentrated in the Creeper Woods.
Behavior[]
Generally, Soulspawns are engineered to hunt almost all Platian sapients, with a peculiar exception of Illagers. They are usually not sapient and are very aggressive. They have some degree of natural instincts, only went out when nighttime and took hiding in the caves once the sun rises back. They can be controlled by powerful soulbenders.
