These yowling beasts are born of a cursed witch's cat and full grown in six months. They appear as gaunt, hairless cat-humanoids with crazed yellow eyes. As tall as an elf and swifter, it's claws and bite are needle-sharp. Always hungry and extremely territorial, one will attack larger or numerous foes in a series of hit and run attacks. Skreewoede feel no loyalty to anything and often cruelly sport with injured or helpless creatures. They will also spray a victim's corpse with foul-smelling musk once they've eaten the choice parts. A pouch full of catnip will quiet and pacify them for 1d4 turns. Skreewoede are talented climbers (Climb Walls 80%) but their constant yowling makes stealth impossible. Their vile shrieks increase the chance of attracting wandering monsters by 1 in 6. These are usually hostile due to sleep deprivation.

Nice evocative beastie. It could work with an occult/horror sort of game as well as traditional D&D.
ReplyDeleteI confess there's a little bit of Poe's The Black Cat in there, also some of Zak's remix of the caterwaul from Fiend Folio.
