Description - : This creature appears as a bent humanoid with long arms. Each hand has lengthy, bladed, fingers that are razor-sharp and lethal. The filthy mouth holds many shark-like, serrated teeth used for ripping. At first glance, it physical appearance gives the impression of this sickening undead of being highly starved.

Dislikes ----- : Holy Crest. If a holy crest shown to this undead, and the holder of it makes a successful avoidance-roll vs. "Faith", this undead will flee for 1-D20 x10 turns. If it cannot flee, it will cower. While in this stated of panick and retreat, if attacked, it will attack as well, yet with a penalty of -5 to both Defense and Offense.

Note:

- When a Holy Crest is raised, and the holder of this symbol fails his or her avoidance-roll, this undead will break into a frenzy, gaining additional attacks as follows:

+1 Bite

+5 Offense

+2 Movement

- This frenzy will last for 1-D4 turns.

- Raising a Holy Crest can only be attempted on a Ghoul 1 time per 24 hour period.

Disposition - : This creature is mindless, existing with an almost inpercievable spark of incoherent life within. It is vaguely aware of its surroundings as it goes about its existence in a never ending routine of possessing burial grounds to which it is attracted to.

If this undead becomes aware of a living creature, a desire will burn within it to obtain that life for itself. In response to this feeling of want for life, it will attempt to tear into a living creature in a fevered desperation of gaining the warmth of life its victim sheds . . . inadvertently devouring and destroying it.

Fears -------- : None.

Habitat ------ : Grassland and forest (Graveyards).

Immunities - : ONLY physically damaging abilities, spells (and magical and enchanted weapons can effect and harm this undead).

Life-span --- : Undying (this creature's existence never fades), but it can be slain.

Likes -------- : The warmth of the living, and feeding off the corpses of the buried.

Needs ------- : This undead is driven to constantly feed upon the flesh and bones of the deceased and the living. It's insatiable appetite is beyond unnerving to those who witness it.

Note --------- : See the "Dislikes" (look at the "Note").
