Whispers

Please note, that due to the nature of this species, very little is known about it.

Origin
There is no confirmed first appearance of this species. For as long as Humankind has been around, there have been stories about those that cannot be seen, yet exist. Perhaps these are the earliest stories of these individuals?

History
Whether or not this species has had any real impact on history is unknown. For as long as there has been history, there are stories about shadows at the edge of one's vision, creaks in the house that cannot be explained, children being afraid of what's under their bed, animals suddenly acting strangely. However, beyond this... nothing.

Appearance
The appearance of this species is unknown. It is speculated that they look like shadows, but beyond this, again, it is unknown.

Behavior
For the most part, this species seems to leave others alone. They don't appear to be able to interact with living beings directly either. They seem to be able to interact with inanimate objects, evidence by an individual setting down a cup, and then turning around to find it somewhere else. They seem to have little interest in our world, however, there are stories of Guardians, who protect us against evil. Perhaps two different factions of this species?

Abilities
This species has perfected the art of hiding. You cannot find one. If one wishes to reveal itself (which is VERY rare), then it will, though it seems this only happens with the very young, old, or insane, those who would not be believed if they told anyone about what they saw. They are known to be unseen miracle workers, or at least that is the theory. They are a likely cause of inexplicable miracles.

This species is so adept at hiding, that one can be standing right in front of you, close enough for you to reach out and touch it, and you would never know. Demons, Angels, Witches, none can detect them. It is theorized that they do not have a soul, but this would make no sense.

Weaknesses
Um... this is a rather difficult category to fill. How can one defeat something that cannot be detected in any way at all? Also, there seems to be absolutely no way to tempt these creatures.

Diet
There are no reports of these individuals needing to eat or drink. Completely unknown.

Life and Death
There is no information on how they live, reproduce, their lifespans, or anything of the sort.

Ranks
From what little available information there is, it seems that there are two sorts of these individuals.

Rank C - Deviants - Said to be the Evil ones, these individuals, despite being said to like to cause chaos and corruption, do not seem to. At least, not randomly. From what can be guessed, they seem to target those individuals who are protected by Guardians, as some sort of challenge perhaps?

Rank B - Guardians - These individuals seem to be the stronger of the two, and are said to protect us. They seem to pick one individual, and protect them from the Deviants, but are theorized to also simply choose areas to protect.
