Description
Within a freshly unearthed family crypt, a grave robber pillages and plunders the remains of the recently entombed, only to disturb the restless spirit of the newly departed and awaken a twisted will from beyond known as a Crypt Shade. They are filled with a ravishing hunger for the lives of others, favoring the energy of good-aligned beings first and foremost, if possible.
A Crypt Shade views the living world as a fragile, naive lie, believing their death has granted them new insights from beyond the grave that the living have yet to accept. Crypt Shades feel compelled to seek the companionship of other beings that share their views, either necromancers or other forms of undead. Once a Crypt Shade has sated, a dead calm fills its form for a short time, during which they can be bargained and reasoned with till their madding hunger returns.
