GHOULS
Ghouls are nocturnal creatures with rubbery skin and hunched gaits. Their vaguely draconic anatomy is not coincidental; a well-documented case in recent years suggests that a local artist in the Hewn City has "transformed" into a ghoul. At this time, it is unclear whether a ritual was involved, or whether all ghouls began their lives in forms identical to dragonkind. This association is disturbing, as ghouls are best known for desecrating graveyards to consume the corpses of fallen dragons. They will only eat decomposing meat. If trapped in a confrontation, they will wield any nearby item as a weapon (usually tombstones). However, they prefer to avoid detection or to escape Sornieth through their tunnels into Dreamland. Their language has been described as "meeping" or "glibbering." They seem incapable of making the same sounds as dragons, although they may try to communicate through grunts or gestures.

Exalting Nepenthe to the service of the Earthshaker will remove them from your lair forever. They will leave behind a small sum of riches that they have accumulated. This action is irreversible.
