Aside from Puck, there wasn't much in the way of the supernatural beyond the Apostles and the Godhand at the start of Berserk. It makes sense since they basically seem to be God and his Angels except if they happened to be truly depraved beings.
I've heard tell of the Trolls, Elemental Lords, and other creatures and was curious if you guys had any opinions on whether this would reduce the impact of the mythology or not.
I think a good deal of Berserk's poignance is there because the world is Lovecraftian in nature. There's nothing good beyond mankind and the gods are alien/evil.
