These beings, once human, have been warped and twisted through the "blessings" of ThatIsWhichIsNot. Beings who manipulate and use Essence experience discomfort, and even pain in the presence of these creatures. This discomfort worsens as they come within closer proximity. Essence flows in a disturbed manner and even anima's "behave" erratically. E.g. while within the area of a Kinder, Lupin V's anima - a night owl - began to fly around erratically, as though in a panic. The coins and jewels it usually leaves in its wake were now flung all about with the velocity of bullets.
The Blasphemous Kinder seem drawn to all artifacts that originated from TheVaultOfTheMartyrs. When within sight of one, they will converge upon it in a single-minded effort to take possession of it. Having taken it, they will leave - ignoring all consequences save losing the artifact - to parts unknown. Usually they disappear around a corner or fade away while departing or disappear when a person blinks, etc. In TheNamelessGospels, the Kinder - while not named - are described as the "keepers" of the artifacts. Upon the day of Rebirth, they will be offered up to That Is Which Is Not who will then destroy them.
