Bête Noire is a creature which inhabits the dark alleyways and dank underworld of Wyrd Games’ Malifaux universe.

Description[]

When she chooses to be seen, Bête appears as a woman of dark majesty, whose great beauty and long flowing hair belie a deadly demeanour. Many of those who have had the misfortune to visit the one of the most recent scenes of her handiwork report a general impression of despair and hopelessness, with some of these individuals suffering lifelong nightmares revolving around the acts committed there.

She has been claimed - by those few who have seen her in action and lived to tell the tale - to be capable of forming her body from the very darkness around her. Some have even stated that she can fold herself into the ground, only to re-emerge at a different location, only to coalesce from blood spilt from those who have died only seconds previously. However, these reports are usually dismissed as the ramblings of traumatised minds.

History[]

Who or what Bête Noire was in life in not known, and likely never will be. What little has been gleaned of her existence now tells that she is something of an avenging angel, stalking the shadows and appearing as if from nowhere to exact a toll on those who have committed some form of heinous act.
