Pyped

A wandering ghost wearing a stolen corpse, lurching toward the smell of marrow.

Solitary, undead, terrifying, craven. When an untethered ghost or a shade possesses an empty corpse, it becomes a pyped. They are wretched things, all rotting flesh and lurching movements, hungering for sweet marrow, scavenging on carrion and graves. But hunger can make them bold. Bold enough to hunt the weak and sick at the edge of a village, or a lone traveler caught unawares.
