Dwarven legends tell of dwarves so corrupt that even the Stone rejects them. Doomed to wander the deep roads in an undying half-life, these creatures are known as Rock Wraiths, and they are creatures of hunger, wrath and little more. While it’s commonly held that Rock Wraiths are myths, every so often a survivor, often half mad, staggers from the deep roads whispering of living rock assembling itself into a twisted shape shifting parody of a humanoid creature, and of baleful eyes glowing in the dark.

從描述上來看，這種構裝生物應該是指矮人傳說中那些被（黑暗衍生物）腐化而死的矮人，由於靈魂無法回歸岩石（被岩石拒絕），而以「半死不活」的狀態遊蕩在深淵之路中。

我猜Striders可能是地表版的Rock Wraiths？
