ABOUT

An aoandon is an incorporeal outsider formed from the spirit of a woman who died pursuing some ill-fated relationship.

An aoandon waits for her chance to seek revenge on those who wronged her in her mortal life. If that person is dead, she finds a surrogate-someone who reminds her of the wrongdoer-and acts out her delusions with unrelenting vindictiveness. These spirits can also appear as a result of mishaps with calling spells, but such instances are rare. The aoandon appears as a translucent figure of a woman that begins fading below the neck and trails off entirely below the waist into scattered motes, shapes, and symbols of blue light.
