When this race of living nightmares entered the world, they single-handedly destroyed the civilization of man, bring a close to the Age of Reason. -The Myrkridian Horde Description, Cast of Characters, Myth III Manual
Description[]
The Myrkridia are a horrific race of bestial flesh eaters. The Myrkridia first become known to the world when Moagim, the Faceless Terror, brought them into the world upon his death. They are a terrible race with a limitless capacity for evil. During the Wind Age, the Myrkridia had almost hunted humanity into extinction until they were trapped in the Tain by Connacht, and were thought to have been destroyed. Sixty years after the Great War, Soulblighter found a way to bring back the Myrkridia after finding The Summoner.
There were two different types of standard Myrkridia in Myth III: The Wolf Age; a Myrkridian Hunters and a Myrkridian Warrior, with the former acting as a weaker variant.

"[Many of them] were slain when they attacked Muirthemne, and their cursed blood seeped into the ground... not every mysterious disappearance could be traced back to the Spider-cults."
Myth III[]
"…Well fatted by countless years of preying upon defenseless victims, the bulk of the Myrkridian packs became slothful and cowardly…they made up for this weakness by traveling in hunting prides, lead by the strongest male…"
"… The Myrkridia raised their gore-crusted muzzles to listen. The trumpeting horns and the clamor of spears against shields sounded the approach of the Hearthguard. When the first spears fell into the group of Myrkridia, they fled from the village, leaving their partially eaten prey behind in their beds…"
