The Ashwalker is a terrifying vision of feral undeath, featuring a sinewy, emaciated physique and elongated, clawed limbs. Its dynamic lunging pose and snarling, long-eared visage make it an ideal choice for a high-threat ghoul, a cursed elf, or a wasteland scavenger in your next tabletop session.
A feral or cursed individual snarling a challenge at an approaching threat, prepared to strike with its claws.
A pack-based skirmisher or a ravenous ambush predator found in graveyards, scorched wastes, or dark dungeons.
