Ghast

Ghasts are an undead creature and non-playable race in Baldur's Gate 3.

“

Orcus, god of undeath, creates ghasts by infusing ghouls with a particularly baleful dosage of his abyssal energy. Whereas a ghoul is little more than a savage beast, a ghast is cunning and can inspire a pack of ghouls to obey its commands.
