The Keres are female death-spirits drawn to the fallen on battlefields.
History
With a never ending thirst for human blood, the Keres hovered around battlefields waiting for a soldier to fall or be wounded. Once they spotted their prey, they swooped in digging their claws into his flesh and begin to drink their prey's life's blood. Once the soldier was drained of his blood they cast him aside sending his soul down to Tartarus.
