"Mana explained it as those guys that are kind of like a mix between a shade and a wendigo. Parts of them are melted off and there's a disconnect between their limbs a lot of the time. Kain's like that. And I think the doctor guy is, he was complaining about rotting away the other day. Kain said something about how each of them has a special item that represents some part of themselves. Only its hidden since they can't safely resurrect without it."

It was also the first time Rin heard the term. He's actually considering asking Mana if she had a name for any of the other new monsters.
