Story
​
These creatures live in the void. The shadowy hell deep below the earth. There bodies droop down from massing pools of darkness that hang in the air or on a roof above them.
Light Eaters are living portals to the void trying to tempt wanderers and scholors with the secrets of the god monodono. They whisper bits of information there pray despertly need to draw them close and when they get to near they grab them and pull them upward into there shadows.
It is belived that many light eaters sire shadowborne tifelings. Tiflings borne this way can hear the whsiperings of there dark ansestors telling them secrets and luring them to serve monodono

It uses its dull light ability as much as it can using the darkening room to move with its living portal abilty. Hiding when nessary
