[Kledra's Menace: 5]
The moment the blade strikes, a connection is struck. Terrible undead energies slam into each other, like cosmic forces of gravity conspiring to change the tides, or lava running into the ocean creating bursts of steam, or two boys trying to knock each other's lights out and knocking over an expensive vase.

Name: Thaxabatus the Eternal
Phys. Description: A white plastic bag that looks kinda like a ghost when the wind catches it just right
Backstory: Cooked up in a vat of polyethlene in a plant somewhere, Thaxabatus had a pleasant enough early life carrying groceries for his human overlords. He was less pleased when he was then re-purposed to line their kitchen tidy, a truly loathsome fate for a proud plastic bag.
It was then that he began to nurse a deepset grudge against humankind. Managing to escape an undignified end in landfill thanks to a windy day and a human that was too lazy to tie him shut around his contents, Thaxabatus flew on on the raging winds in search of vengeance. The wind itself seems to have allied itself with him, and taking inspiration from human folklore he has modeled himself after the ghostly apparitions they fear so much.
