They resemble regular slivers, but are covered in black oily skin and have bloated features. Crypt slivers are usually about 6' in length. Despite being undead, they are an accepted part of sliver society, although they are not able to hibernate and evolve into more powerful forms. They are generally used as sentries, and as weapons against foes that employ weapons and spells that are unaffective against undead, such as Cloudkill. They are also used in areas that are lethal to other slivers. [b]Combat: [/b] Crypt slivers fight much like other slivers by flailing away with their claw and biting with their beaked mouthes.
