Description
Bugbears that are gifted in stealth are sent out to kill enemy sentries and thus clear the way for others to penetrate the foes defenses. Murderers carry many javelins with them, which they throw from hiding and wield in melee, and they also carry garrotes to cut off sounds of screaming.
