-{{:independents:horror.png?nolink }} Greater Horrors (such as the aptly-named "??Horror??") are always called by the highest-end Horror-summoning spells.

-{{:independents:doom_horror:agon.png?nolink }} The **Doom Horrors** are [[unique]] beings who, in most cases, rival even the most combative of Pretender Gods. Being unique, they cannot be in two places at once; thus, if a Doom Horror is on the field, they won't random attack a commander. On that note, Doom Horrors have a special desire against the [[Thrones]], implying that they can perhaps attack entire provinces (or at least linger past their assassination attempts). Since there is only one of each of these psychos, Doom Horrors are far rarer than the rest, though two have "favored prey" that they are significantly more likely to take.+{{:independents:doom_horror:agon.png?nolink }} The **Doom Horrors** are [[unique]] beings who, in most cases, rival even the most combative of Pretender Gods.

 In the case of gem-baited attacks during Astral Corruption or the Cataclysm, the attacking Horror has roughly a **(10 x //B// / 25)**% chance to be a Doom Horror instead of a Lesser Horror. This is checked before whether or not the Horror can be a Greater Horror; thus, if they're not a Doom Horror, they then have a **//B//**% chance to be a Greater Horror instead, and they'll be a Lesser Horror (or a group of them) if neither chance pans out. In the case of gem-baited attacks during Astral Corruption or the Cataclysm, the attacking Horror has roughly a **(10 x //B// / 25)**% chance to be a Doom Horror instead of a Lesser Horror.

 +==== Spell Notes ====
 +
 +  * **??Send Lesser Horror??** chooses its Horrors in the same way as a typical assassination/attack; thus, there's still a chance for a Greater Horror (//or even a Doom Horror//) to be sent instead.
 +  * **??Send Horror??** never sends Lesser Horrors. //It can still possibly send Doom Horrors//, with better odds of doing so than ??Send Lesser Horror?? (of course).
 +  * A ritual called **??Horror Seed??** marks a unit so that they summon a Horror on death, and has them mark others each turn in a way that can have them eventually turn into Horrors; it seems as though these will only summon (or turn into) Lesser Horrors, however.
 +  * The spells that summon Horrors in battle are **??Call Lesser Horror??**, **??Call Horror??**, and **??Hell Power??**. This happens **once** per casting with the first two. ??Hell Power?? functions a bit more like a Battlefield Enchantment (such as ??Howl?? or ??Shark Attack??), in that it isn't guaranteed to summon Horrors right away **but can do so more than once**.
 +    * Other spells that apply Horror Marks, such as ??Horror Mark?? and ??Astral Geyser??, do not //also// summon Horrors.
 +  * Sitting under a **??Dome of Corruption??** adds an additional chance to be attacked by Horrors each turn, but only if you have Horror Marks. The chance is 10% per Horror Mark, capped at 50%.
