These undead beings are a plague found in cemeteries, battlefields, crypts, and places of death.
Yet even the most inquisitive player may not know a lot about thesehorrific creatures.
Where they came from, their strange behavior, and the fact that theyre based on real-life organisms.
The most common form of Necrophages is fungi or mushrooms that derive their nutrients from decaying matter.
Fortunately, there are no humanoid Necrophages in real life, at least that we know of.
Especially when itll need to bury the victim and let the body rot before eating.
But for now, lets look at the various ways some of these Necrophages are created.
6Cannibalism Turns Humans Into Necrophages
The main method of becoming a Necrophage is resorting to cannibalism.
This most commonly results in Ghouls, though some players believe Rotfiend are also created this way.
A more likely theory is that Hags are the result of women succumbing to cannibalism and insanity.
Of course, the final entry hints at another possibility as to where these Hags come from.
These are much stronger and more hostile variants.
Or whatever process occurs to create a Drowner is simply more effective with villainous personalities.
Some players suspect a damned criminal is more likely to make a pact with whatever reanimates these creatures.
Are they lost men and women who resorted to cannibalism to survive?
People who drowned in bogs and rivers and became the Drowned?
Or old women who go insane and become Hags?
Its a frightening possibility that makes Foglets much more problematic.
It could also be that both are true with some Ghouls being true Ghouls and some formerly being human.
Its up to you.
