Tonight we have a bit of a spin on the zombie. Husk Zombies are frail and unstable as the chaotic arcane energy that bore life to them. These creatures are hard to control but easy to kill if met with magic that disrupts the flow of their own arcane energy.
So tonight there is no time to sit back as we need to run to avoid being eaten!
Husk Zombies

The first signs that something was wrong came when a body was pulled from the rubble of the inn. Its broken form tinged with a rainbow tapestry just beneath its skin as the evidence of magic shone through the cold flesh. As they watched and another one was dug from more rubble the body started to twitch and convulse as a pulsating light ran through the humans veins and along its muscles.
The once-humans shaking stirred with their rescuers praising what ever deity had chosen to grant them the miracle of these people being alive. However the praises turned quickly to screams as the freshly risen dead attacked those around them. As the first few were quickly dealt with by the city guard more began to dig themselves out of the rubble.
At first it was just those unfortunately crushed under the sudden collapse of the inn and temple but then a dishevelled, husk like zombie pulled itself from the walls of the temple. Its ancient form was dry and flaking dust as it moved slowly towards those alive around it. Not fresh and meaty like the freshly risen, these zombies were husks, empty apart from the chaotic rainbow of colours that bore their withered lifeless forms.
As the husks engaged they were cut down quickly as their bodies were more frail than the freshly departed, however they were all still dangerous and as they were re-released to the void beyond a cloud of magical energy was released from the dry, empty vessels.
Thanks for visiting tonight to explore gross zombies with me. Don’t forget to come back tomorrow night for more content and, as always, don’t forget to roll with advantage,
