Description
A sinister predator lurking in corrupted waters, the Blighted Eel glows faintly with dark, pulsating veins of blighted energy. It moves with eerie precision, sensing prey even in total darkness. Its bite carries the dreaded Blighted Scourge, and in times of desperation, it discharges an electric burst laced with corruption. Found in tainted rivers and lakes, these creatures are the first sign that a body of water has been lost to the Blighted Scourge
