Description
Multiple faces contorted in pained grimaces, moan their lamentations as they crown the form of this monstrous twisted mountain of flesh. Standing over nine feet tall, this creature towers over everything on the battlefield. Many small arms ending in clawed hands lash out to hold prey still, while the one massive, grotesquely muscled, arm growing out of it's spine waves a leather scourge barbed with bits of broken glass, metal scraps, sharpened bone and stone all covered with decaying flesh. As it's frenzied howl dies down, the many faces of the creature begin to whisper dark words in foreign tongues in unison, causing poisonous fog and grasping shadow tendrils to creep forth from the darkness around it.
Weeping Flagellants are sentient undead contructs that are created or summoned to serve as bodyguards and manual labor for necromantic crafters. They usually begin combat by casting Shadow Of Moil then closing in for melee.
