Walking Corpse

Walking Corpses are a larger type of Zombie, that can take more punishment before being destroyed. Walking Corpses are monsters classified as undead.

Like other zombies, Walking Corpses move very slowly and without much urgency. They can be avoided fairly easily, or simply outrun. They do not use weapons or spells, and are purely melee fighters. Despite their liabilities, they are not simply shambling experience pots; they can deal serious damage, especially in large groups.

These slow moving zombies are a bit larger than the base model zombie, and can presumably take a bit more damage.

Walking corpses have a unique talent, in that upon death they sometimes break in half, but continue the battle as their upper bodies snap off and become a Crawling Torso.

Spells and Abilities

• Spawn Crawling Torso

The Walking Corpse can on death spawn a Crawling Torso, if enough damage was not dealt to it. It's essentially the original monster's upper body that continues the hunt for the flesh of the living.
