**Description:** The Sabotage Wisp is a malevolent entity born from the chaotic energies of disrupted arcane flows. It resembles a flickering, spectral figure, with glowing tendrils that pulse with unstable magic. These wisps thrive in environments of technological failure or magical disturbance, often appearing during crises such as the broken fiber-optic cable incident in Finland. They employ hit-and-run tactics, using their invisibility and disruptive powers to sow confusion among adventurers, favoring ambushes and quick retreats. Their demeanor is capricious, often toying with their foes before striking decisively, embodying the essence of chaos and sabotage.
