Rushlights are evil undead spirits composed of ethereal flame, and look like a flaming ball of a person's agonized face and hands. They are formed when an evil person is immolated alive on a funeral pyre. Such practices are often used by the inquisitors of Tepest and similar societies to scour the evil from people condemned to death.[1]


For the most part, Rushlights are invisible when viewed directly; but they can be detected using peripheral vision. The spell detect invisible will make them fully visible to the naked eye.[1]

During the day, they bury themselves into the ground where they met their terrible death and arise at night to seek living victims.<ref name=DenDred>Denizens of Dread p.179<ref>
