Torrents of spiritual magic dance around the farlook in a vivid display of black and white wisps. A soft liquid membrane is covered with a thickened skin that covers three-fourths of sphere-shape. A large, iris takes up the remaining quarter, which can be protected by a folded layer of skin just just above it. A sick goo constantly drips from the severed nerve ending jutting out of the back of the farlook. Crimson energy ripples emanate from the bottom of the farlook, causing it to bob up and down a few inches off the ground.

Farlooks do not spawn routinely in the Temple. They are created two at a time by a hunch-backed dogmatist performing a ritual on a dead player:

One might infer that the two farlooks have different attacks and other properties, based on the messaging that one is surrounded by spiritual energy and one elemental!
An example of a farlook's mote:
A gory stormy grey farlook draws in ripples of elemental energy upon itself. The farlook becomes almost entirely obscured by the collected energy before releasing a violent explosion of electricity outward! You leap to the side as you try to avoid the effulgent volley! What agility! What grace! A flickering ball of electricity passes harmlessly by you! Roundtime: 3 sec.
