Aghots were the third sentient species on the planet of Uthel, after Humans and Trullas. For many centuries, they would attack the cities and villages of the Uthelians, stealing food, crops, cattle and the citizens. Many were amazed by the cruelty of their many crimes, and although Aghots were supposed to be treated as sentient beings, in the majority of cases, they were simply referred to as beasts and predators. Aghots had only one unusual ability. They could change their appearance when it was necessary for them.
