Viral Wights & Demighouls
The urban legend about the “resurrection disease” Wights is just asking to be expanded. It gives me the idea of distinct Viral Wights; dead reanimated by a specific resurrection disease. The virus would be the Legacy creation of some long-dead Augmenter/Necrobiologist. He’ll get a name and story eventually, but the important part is that these Viral Wights are confirmed to have existed at one point, and may well still lurk in the dark corners (is there any other kind?) of the Netherstadt.
The large variety found among Ghouls also prompts me to divide them into “true” Ghouls and not-quite-fully-turned Demighouls. Essentially, if you can still talk to it then it’s a Demighoul. Still dangerous, but I think adding a bit more detail to the “fall” of these individuals could make them much more interesting enemies. Those details still aren’t very fleshed out, but at least the idea is there now.
