Wights

Wights are spirits is raised from the dead due to necromancy, by binding a Geist to a corpse (often long dead). They are barely recognizable to those who knew them in life; their flesh is twisted by the dark magic that created them, their eyes burn blood-red with hatred, and their teeth and nails become beast-like. The difference between a ghoul and a wight is that wights are exclusively born through resurrection by some form of necromancy, where as a ghoul is a living being cursed with undeath. The first wights were created as grunt soldiers to serve under Death Knights by the same entity that created the undead, though most wights in the Modern Era are created by Liches.
