{{canon}}

A mourner is a type of [[undead]] native to the [[outlander world]] of [[Eberron]], specifically the ruined nation of [https://eberron.fandom.com/wiki/Cyre Cyre], now known as [https://eberron.fandom.com/wiki/The_Mournland the Mournland]. They appear as whispy beings made of gray mist with [[claw]]s and vaguely [[humanoid]] features. Despite their all but weightless natures, they are not [[incorporeal]] and are capable of exerting force, even powerful strikes, upon their enemies. [[Reanimated]] by the wave that destroyed most of life in Cyre during the [https://eberron.fandom.com/wiki/Day_of_Mourning Day of Mourning], they are unable to move far from the ground or venture past the borders of the Mournland<ref name="Five Nations p. 90-91">[[Five Nations]] p. 90-91</ref>, {{Spec|at least upon their home world.}}

==Origins==
The mourners were originally a group of three hundred [[soldier]]s serving [https://eberron.fandom.com/wiki/Thrane Thrane] during [https://eberron.fandom.com/wiki/The_Last_War the Last War]. Fighting against [https://eberron.fandom.com/wiki/Karrnath Karrnath] in Cyre, the soldiers were led into a Karrnathi ambush by their [[traitor]] captain. All the soldiers were slaughtered, but they were later given proper burial in a mass grave by other soldiers of Thrane. Three days after the deaths of the [[betrayed]] soldiers, a wave of horrid energy devastated Cyre. This same wave reanimated the soldiers as undead. Their ultimate motives are unknown, though they are not [[evil]].<ref>Five Nations p. 91-92</ref>

==Special Abilities==
As creatures made of mist, mourners are capable of flight. They radiate [[aura]]s of palpable gloom, suffering, and distrust that can leave those nearby shaken by the experience. Mourners can also unleash their suffering in horrible wails that cause their foes to run in fright. Finally, mourner [[claw]] strikes inflict [[Wisdom]] damage in addition to normal physical damage.<ref name="Five Nations p. 90-91">[[Five Nations]] p. 90-91</ref>
