2. Creeping
Noun:
14. Ghoul
First Sighted:
In the marshes to the north of the Marshton along the Limini River. First sighted in 2587 by a group of travelers passing through from Teneneron to Marshton.
What it does
It Creeps along the marshes and hovers slightly above the water. When it is on dry land it leaves behind a trail of muddy footprints despite having no feet. If it sees you it will hunt you slowly until it kills you by draining all the warmth from your body or it is defeated.
Environment does it favor
They reside in the Marshes to the south of Teneneron and haven’t been seen elsewhere. It’s thought the same magic that keeps Teneneron in darkness creates these monsters from the corpses of travelers who died in the marshes.

In 809 in the plains near the city of Fal’terek.
What it does
It comes from the sea and up onto the plains and hunts for months at a time. It will catch a creature in it’s maw and suck it dry of blood before spitting it out on the ground.

In 5249 to the West of Cricenal in the birch forest.
