Frozen Male Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Sepulghul
Birthday: Monday, November 4, 2019
Owner: cass9086
Element: Neutral 
Your sepulghul egg began hatching tonight. You have opened the window to let out the stench that seems to billow from the widening cracks in its shell, but the noxious fumes burn your eyes and nose. You cough and turn away, only to hear a loud crack, like bones snapping. On the table in front of you is a pile of rotten bones, glistening wet in the moonlight. A high pitched shriek sends you stumbling back as tiny fangs snap at the air. It is hungry.
The desert has many secrets, and the sepulghul may be responsible for many of them. Travelers are advised to avoid any abandoned places and especially any sort of burial site, lest they find themselves being attacked by sepulghuls. These creatures feed on rotted blood and decaying flesh, and they will hunt the living when they are unable to find enough corpses. While a single sepulghul is small enough to pose only a minor threat to an adult, they live in massive groups that can easily take down a caravan. This is why those native to Etain refuse to travel on moonless nights and insist on burying the dead as soon as possible.
