| - Demons of the wind and air, the diabolical Winds of Taurang served the whims of Taurclax, evil Animist of the Court of Ardor in the Mumakan region of southernmost Middle-earth. The evil bargain that Taurclax had made with the Winds was that he would suffer with his new allies when they were "killed" (impossible to do) or incapacitated by becoming incapacitated himself. The Winds appeared as slender figures wrapped, cloaked, and masked in black. They were armed with evil magical blades known as kynacs; these blades were poisoned. The Winds could change into the form that their name implied, and in this way they could enter any place that was not airtight; they were able to carry their weapons with them while doing so. They could not fight in this form, however, and it took them quite a while to regain solid status (or vice versa); they could not change form while stunned. The Winds were called, from least to mightiest, Aur, Kax, Eos, Can, Ior, and Kel. When destroyed in any fashion, the Winds returned to Taurclax's fortress of Taurang and recovered for 66 days. Taurclax was out of action for the number of days equal to the level of the defeated Wind.
