[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 7262598, member: 2209"] [b]Critters Vol. 1[/b] [URL=http://www.knightsofthecrusade.com/society-library]Critters Vol. 1[/URL] Castles & Crusades [b]Ash Crawler:[/b] The ash crawler is partially incorporeal being made of nothing more than the ashes of its former body animated by a terrible evil will that makes it difficult to damage by weapons. [b]Corpse Ray:[/b] The Corpse Ray is the animate amalgam of bones, sundered flesh, and detritus of drowned and devoured sailors that has somehow coalesced into a mass of cursed life with a hatred of all things living. [b]Dread Knight:[/b] The Dread Knight is a powerful undead created from the corpse of a fallen knight or paladin by necromancers. [b]Dust Wraith:[/b] Dust wraiths are formed when powerful corporeal undead such as mummies turn to dust due to time or when an intelligent creature is slain by a dust wraith. [b]Gossamer Haunt:[/b] It is unknown how Gossamer Haunts procreate or even by what process they come into existence, though theory thinks that they are the vengeful spirits of those abandoned by family and friends to die alone and forlorn in some equally forgotten place. [b]Husk:[/b] The Husk is the corporeal remains of a cleric whose faith and devotion to their evil deity was so strong that their deity would not let them truly die. [b]Zombie:[/b] Any creature whose strength has been completely drained away by the Husks withering touch will rise 2d4 rounds after death as a zombie under the full control of the Husk that created it. [b]Zombie Knight:[/b] The Zombie Knight is the unfortunate victim of a Dread Knight that has been reanimated to serve its slayer for eternity. Any living creature killed by the Dread Knight has a 50% chance of rising as a Zombie Knight within 1d3 rounds after begin slain. The Zombie Knight is a thrall of the Knight and will obey only its creator or the necromancer that created the Knight itself. If those that are slain by the knight are beheaded immediately after death, then they will be unable to rise as undead spawn. [/QUOTE]
