Notes	3 meters high, 250-350 kg of nightmare. RQ pg 355-356 If a ghoul’s bite penetrates armour the victim must make an unopposed Endurance roll to resist infection. Failing the roll means the victim is infected with the spirit curse that will create a new ghoul upon death (takes several days). A standard ghoul tactic is to grip an opponent with its hands and then target an area of exposed flesh. Once it has bitten it releases and flees, attempting to find somewhere to skulk until a threat has passed and it can resume feeding. An elder ghoul can shapeshift into a perfect replica of any person whose flesh they eat. This shape can be maintained indefinitely. They acquire memories as well: all the memo- rise of a fresh corpse (or living person), but memories decay along with the flesh. A year-old corpse has just fragmentary impressions left. Acquired memories gradually fade once the shape is abandoned; An elder ghoul can control any normal ghouls it created. They can be taught commands much like training dogs; but for more complex control the elder ghoul must spend a Magic Point to permanently make a ghoul into a thrall. The elder ghoul can choose to see through the eyes of any of its thralls, take control of their actions or voice through a mental link, or give them complex tasks to perform. Elder ghouls do not regenerate spent Magic Points naturally; instead they must consume the heart of a magician (of any tradition) to gain whatever Magic Points she had upon death. The bite of an elder ghoul infects the victim with the same curse as a regular ghoul. No one knows how elder ghouls come about. *Regenerates* 1 hp per round per location.
