First encounter: Al'Abzari
Physical Description: Den Nosferatu observed by the Disciples of Dreth'dor appeared as feral-looking people with pasty, white skin, incredibly bloodshot, sunken eyes, claw-like nails, and pointed, jagged teeth. Blood was smeared all around their mouths, and dripped down their chests, staining their clothing, which appeared to be stitched together from pieces of dark, torn fabrics, in an attempt to mimic some elegant fashion style.
Additional Information:
