**Description:** The Social Wraith is a malevolent spirit formed from the remnants of a once-powerful social media influencer, twisted by their insatiable need for attention and validation. These wraiths haunt the digital realms and the minds of the living, using their charm and manipulation to sow discord and fear among adventurers. They prefer to attack from the shadows, whispering insidious thoughts and preying on insecurities, often leading their victims into traps or turning allies against each other. Their eerie presence is accompanied by flickering images of their past life, drawing in those who seek to understand their tragic demise.
