Homebrew Drepsótt Species Details

Drepsótt are a virus made by Necromancers, they can posses corpses, infect the living as a parasite, and self replicate. They appear as a green sludge with black eyes and white pupils. Their power greatly varies on how long they've existed, and lower powered Drepsótt can't self replicate or infect living beings. They posses a connection to Death, and can cast some low level necrotic spells as they get more powerful, but are generally not magically inclined otherwise. They can leave their host at any time, ending their turn, and when they infect a new host, they become dazed for 1 turn. Their hosts take up all of their traits: eg. Strength, Wisdom, Dex, but their health is based off of half of the hosts health + some based off of the virus's constitution. When they are hostless they run faster, but only have their own health.
