The Pah-wraiths are non-corporeal beings once native to the Bajoran wormhole. According to Bajoran texts, at some point millennia ago, the Pah-wraiths became enemies of the Prophets, and were banished from the wormhole to the Fire Caves on Bajor. Bajoran texts also record the Pah-wraiths as being "false Prophets". (DS9 episodes: "The Assignment", "The Reckoning", "Tears of the Prophets", "Shadows and Symbols", "'Til Death Do Us Part", "Strange Bedfellows", "What You Leave Behind")

There were at least two groups of Pah-wraith; the first were led by Kosst Amojan who led the war against the Prophets and were banished within the Fire Caves for their actions. The second group were a minority who did not aid their brethren during the battle and, instead, fled into Jalbador, the second wormhole. (DS9 - Millennium novel: Inferno)
