When the cataclysm struck, the trees were slain along with most other living things. A few spirit lizards, however, were trapped inside their dead and dying trees, fusing with them by the warping influence of the Unspeakable One. These became the first of the deadwood trees.Tragically, when the Unspeakable One destroyed the serpent people and their lands, the spirit lizards and the trees in which they lived were fused, becoming horrid abominations known as deadwood trees.As the essence of the Unspeakable One permeated the living things of the continent, many spirit lizards became trapped in their home trees and warped by the maddening forces unleashed upon the land. Twisted and evil, these become the first deadwood trees.Fire Specter: The most famous fire spectre is Captain Kothar. In life, Captain Kothar was a vicious pirate noted for his bloodthirsty tactics and wanton cruelty. After he and his crew attacked and murdered their rivals, claiming their vessel the Winds of Hell for themselves, they were captured, tried, and executed for their crimes. The Captains’ Council decreed they should be lashed to the deck of their bloody ship while the vessel burned down to the waterline. Kothar’s hate ran hotter than the flames and he refused to go to the Nine Hells until he got his vengeance.While it is true that the Winds of Hell is a ghost ship, it is crewed by the undead remains of the bloodthirsty Captain Kothar and his crew, now called the Accursed. These horrid creatures are no ordinary undead; they’re fire spectres, the burning souls of the damned.This creature is a fire spectre, an undead abomination that houses the tortured spirit of a black-hearted villain.Flayed Man: It appears as a humanoid, and tattered bits of skin cling to the fat, muscle, and sinew exposed by the terrible magic that created it, its eyes burning with unspeakable malevolence.Flayed men represent yet another pitfall of mortal ambition. The procedure for attaining lichdom is perilous indeed, and those incautious fools who dabble in the black arts are at risk of major mishap when they attempt to circumvent the natural order. Flayed men are created whenever a mortal seeks to transcend death and become a lich, but fails to attain the proper ingredients or is otherwise interrupted while in the midst of the ritual. The flesh sloughs from the necromancer’s body in pieces, leaving curled bits of skin to writhe atop of the glistening muscle and sinew.Zombie: Any humanoid slain by a flayed man rises as a zombie at the start of the flayed man’s next turn, appearing in the space where it died (or in the nearest unoccupied space).Ravenous Zombie: Most zombies are mindless creatures, little more than automatons to be directed by their creators. Rarely, though, an animated carcass retains faint memories of its former life and is consumed by an overpowering need to fill the emptiness of its existence by consuming the fresh brains of living creatures.Shadow Serpent: A shadow serpent is an undead remnant of a cleric of Yig that somehow failed its god and people and is now cursed to spend eternity as a wretched thing.When Valossa became contaminated with the minions of the Unspeakable One, its people corrupted and befouled by the King in Yellow’s awful touch, the serpent god Yig cast down the Valossan empire and cursed his priests for failing in their sacred duty to safeguard the serpent people and keep them pure in their faith to him. Those priests who bore the brunt of the serpent god’s wrath became the dreaded shadow serpents, appalling undead creations consumed with remorse for their mortal failings and channeling that grief into hatred for the living, especially the inheritors of the world.Skin Cloak: A skin cloak consists of the skinned hide of a human or humanoid creature. The flesh is tanned, with any cut marks closed with a heavy thread, and is often tattooed. The curing process results in shrinking the overall hide and thus these creatures are often smaller than they were in life, standing about four feet tall and weighing twenty pounds or less.This unsettling undead creature is called a skin cloak or hollow man. It is the animated remains of a skinned humanoid.Thanatos: A thanatos is a horrific abomination being the undead remains of a great fish.This creature is a thanatos, the undead remains of a great fish.Skulldugger: ?</blockquote>
