Notes[]

The bodies of Crawfather and Gurr The Outcast mysteriously disappear after their fights, so its possible they were just knocked unconscious and didn’t die.
Crawfather, as well as the craws fought in the Court Of Craws, will not be listed as villains as they correctly accuse Hornet of bringing the void to Pharloom, and seek to punish her for her crime. Therefore, their actions are fair and justified.
