Nightmare (Dungeons & Dragons)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the nightmare is an outsider that comes from the Gray Waste of Hades. It resembles a large black horse, though flames wreathe its hooves and trail from its nostrils.

A nightmare is always neutral evil. It is able to travel to other planes, and can bring its rider therewith. Nightmares sometimes serve powerful evil creatures as mounts.

Lesser and greater (called cauchemars) versions of the nightmare are known to exist.
