Physical Description Most Carrion Leapers are roughly seven feet tall and consist of a gaunt humanoid torso with the ribs cracked open in an approximation of a giant maw with further lines of razor teeth in its chest cavity. Where its head ought to be is a recess where a pair of beady red eyes stare out. Extended, its bony arms reach to about its knees and end in razor sharp talons that it uses for both clawing and climbing. A Carrion Leaper's legs are long and gaunt like most of its wiry frame, ending in hooked, clawed feet.

Dwellings: Carrion Leapers tend to haunt old, ruined buildings or caves near roads to prey on travelers. They also sometimes make crypts or tombs their abode. They look for locations where their ambush tactics are most effect.ve
