AnvilLANDVERTICALundeadzombieunholydisease
At around 5 feet long, this massive, rotting serpent lacks potent venom, but its bite still injects putrid fluid that can cause infection. Simple to create and varied in purpose, these shambling undead are often used for their strength and endless stamina to conduct boring, repetitive tasks.

PUNISHES
✖ melee reliance✖ low Fortitude
Being mindless, this creature cannot itself act as a caster or controller; pair it purely for its bulk and disease threat, not tactical coordination.
