Dwimmerwraiths are a horrible form of undead almost indistinguishable from normal Wraiths.  They are incorporeal, and as such they are only injured by magical and silver weapons.  Whenever a character is struck by a Dwimmeraith they must save against Death or become the victim of the Dwimmerwraith’s foul curse.  Any character so cursed may not regain Hit Points in any manner until a Remove Curse spell is cast upon him or her.

This is one of those undead variants I mentioned in my earlier post.  I do not claim that it is terribly original, but I will note it is not the only way I handle level drain in my campaign.  The name Dwimmerwraith was an attempt to avoid copyright violation.  Tolkien fans will likely know what the creature's actual name is in my notes.
