Suggestions for new creatures!
There are many creatures that the heroes of might and magic series lack. here are some suggestions for new creatures! (some of these creatures are inspired from dungeons and dragons)

Black elves are evil cousins to the surface dwelling elves. They usually use crossbows instead of bows, and their skin color range from dark blue to black. Black elves are more powerful than surface elves.
Upgrades: Dark Elf, Night Elf.

(Ghost)
Ghosts are more powerful than allips.
(Spectre)
Spectres are powerful ghosts, able to summon strong feelings in the living. They often scare, or even kill living creatures, which they hate so much that it turns them insane. Spectres appears as very pale, transparent males.
