Flesh-eater Courts – Crypt Horrors
7" 4 5+ 1 Though ghouls are vile cannibals, their appearance retains enough vestigial humanity to evoke some pity. The same cannot be said for Crypt Horrors. These are monstrous beasts, each as brawny as an ogor and equally eager for meat. Hideously strong, they rip organs right out of their victims, stuffing glistening handfuls of offal into their maws. While they wear no armour, neither do they feel pain; by the time a Crypt Horror is cut down, they will have bludgeoned a gory path through anything standing before them.
Crypt Horrors are created when a ghoul performs a feat of arms so worthy of renown that they are permitted to sup from their vampiric liege’s blood, a substance charged with dark sorcery. As they swell in stature, becoming able to sprint as fast as a charging destrier, they begin to view themselves as a mounted elite under the command of the blessed courtiers. This delusion is deepened by the plaudits heaped upon them by the serfs, and this sense of their own majestic status perhaps spawns the compulsion to hoard remnants of past massacres like sacred relics. | ||
