Напоролся на одно интересное словечко - Hobgoblin. Вот как их описывает корник:
Hobgoblins
When a mage enters a particularly nasty episode of Quiet, his delusions may manifest on the world around him. Such manifested creatures and objects are known as hobgoblins, and they tend to follow the mage around and cause all sorts of Quiet -ridden problems until the episode passes.
A hobgoblin could manifest in any number of forms — as a small creature, an actual object, a sensory effect or the like. The difference is that a hobgoblin seems, for all intents and purposes, to be totally real, and it can affect and be perceived by other people, not just the mage! Such manifestations are adept at causing all manner of trouble, especially when they can interfere with the mage's friends, or just set the local scenery on fire. Worse still, the mage might well know that they're brought on by the Quiet, but he can't always tell what's a hobgoblin and what's a normal part of reality.
Hobgoblins usually stick around for one day per level of the mage's Arete, although they may last longer in particularly nasty Quiets. They can be destroyed or "killed," but the ramifications could be troublesome (to say the least) if the mage madly attacks hallucinations that aren't there or destroys something that's actually someone's pet or property. While the hobgoblins exist, they typically reveal the mage's dark secrets and desires,
cause trouble and raise questions of conflicts within the mage's mind.
Hobgoblins most commonly appear for Madness episodes, but disembodied voices or machine emanations may occur for Clarity, or vicious demonic creatures may appear in cases of Jhor.
