Muks are large, cruel creatures that wander dungeons and cave systems in search of anything they can fit in their mouths. They will attempt to knock out their prey through ambush attacks and devour them before they can retaliate. These blobs will often eat carcasses days to months old, as well as anything on them. When a muk escapes the vicious underground to the surface, panic will often ensue. They are feared as monstrous, soulless abominations. |
