Hiya Blade, welcome to SYM!

The banshee is a corporeal spirit (like a ghost) that has a wail that signifies someones death.

The Blades of the Banshee are a guild created on this site for members here only, that is created for NwN, we will adventure and roleplay in the game.

Hope that helps,

Actually IIRC that is a wraith

(looks awful much like the one I use at the BoTB site, and that is "borrowed" from PoR2 - art.

Even if it is a wraith, it's still our Banshee...

Come on guys, let's all have a big group hug with the banshee
