Description

The Vrykolakasare undead creatures similar to vampires. Vrykolakas drink the blood and eath the organs of living creature. They must do so in order to live and procreate. The Vrykolakas are not naturally occurring creatures they were created by the High Necromancers of the Eobsh Empire. 

Vrykolakas stand 6 feet tall on 2 legs. They have 2 arms. The are extremely gaunt but very strong. The torso of a Vrykolakas is only a quarter of their height. They have hunched over posture. They are devoid of almost all hair save several long hairs used to sense vibrational changes. They also have translucent skin of ashen-gray coloring. The Vrykolakas have bat-like heads but lack eyes. While physically blind, they have a highly developed sense of hearing and smell. A Vrykolakas can smell a drop of blood a league away. 

Their mouths are full of razor sharp teeth. Like sharks, these teeth are shed and will regrow. In the top center of their mouth, they have two permanent incisors.  These teeth are long like daggers. 

On the end of thir arms, the Vrykolakas have large hands with three clawed fingers and a thumb. The first finger, next to the thumb is twice as long as the other 2. This finger is used for digging out the soft organs of its prey.

Vrykolakas are genderless and they reproduce asexually. When a Vrykolakas feeds enough two to three pustules will begin to grow on its back. After several days the pustules will burst and a smaller version of the Vrykolakas emerge. Within a few hours the newly hatched will reach full size. 

Vrykolakas hunt in packs, but are not very intelligent. The are closer to rabid animals, relying in overwhelming numbers, rather than using tactics. 

Vrykolakas are sensitive to sunlight. It will kill them eventually, if they are exposed for a long period of time. For short periods, it will cause severe pain.
