Horror
Not a distinct race by itself, 'Horror' instead refers to a wide variety of grotesque beings, ranging from the insectoid mercenaries of Mercadia's Cateran Guild to the twisted outcasts of the Urborg swamps to the abominable nightmare creatures summoned by the Dementia Casters of Otaria from the depths of their own minds. In other cases a horror is a member of another species that has become deeply corrupted by evil influences.

Famous quotes containing the word horror:
“I have a horror of people who speak about the beautiful. What is the beautiful? One must speak of problems in painting!”
—Pablo Picasso (18811973)
“Adder-faced singularity
Espouses a nailed-up childhood,
Skin-disease pardons
Soft horror of living,
A gabble is forgiven
By chronic solitude.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“To play is nothing but the imitative substitution of a pleasurable, superfluous and voluntary action for a serious, necessary, imperative and difficult one. At the cradle of play as well as of artistic activity there stood leisure, tedium entailed by increased spiritual mobility, a horror vacui, the need of letting forms no longer imprisoned move freely, of filling empty time with sequences of notes, empty space with sequences of form.”
—Max J. Friedländer (18671958)
