These undead creatures were humans or demihumans who died of starvation in chains and raised by evil magic. They appear as chained corpses with fang-filled mouths. Four chains move like a puppet's strings held up by invisible hands.  Their teeth chatter from their terrible hunger.  With the clanking of chains this prevents hungerbound from surprising anyone but the deaf and may draw wandering monsters at the whim of the Labyrinth Lord.  Hungerbound attack by lashing a victim with two of it's chains and biting it.  Those struck by a hungerbound must save vs. spells or suffer hunger pangs that cause a -2 to attack rolls and a -2 penalty to DEX.  These last until a remove curse spell is cast or until the victim next eats. Hungerbound can be turned by clerics as 3HD undead.  Like all undead they are immune to sleep and charm spells.
