Placeholder text. Instinct: To silence opposition

• Apply poison to a weapon
• Spring a trap

Long ago the Word Eater was nothing but a shadow with a thirst for knowledge. Not to share it, but to take it. Replace it with Nothing. Its power is a plague of vocabulary, stealing words mundane and powerful to grow in strength, rendering whole cultures lost and ignorant. If it knows you, it can become you whole cloth. Instinct: To usurp

• Steal a word and demonstrate its power
• Impersonate someone whose name it has consumed
• After eating a word, make it literally or metaphorically manifest
• Tear language whole from minds and culture, and replace it with void
• Know forgotten and impossible secrets
