Kikimora are ghasts who have metamorphosed to live in swampy and aquatic environments. They grow razor sharp quills and webbing all over their body which they use as a weapon to ruthlessly grapple enemies and impale their foes. They are known for their wicked sharp claws and diseased bites. They can climb walls with ease as well as burrow in the soft soil of lakes, deltas and bogs to ambush their prey. These foul creatures generally congregate with other necrophages and undead, especially strzyga, mglaks and bloated cadavers. |
