Night Frights

Fist-sized suicide mobs that swarm from the dunes at night, latching on and exploding like the first floor's rot stickers.

Story so far

Night Frights are fist-sized monsters that emerge from the sand dunes across the necropolis bowl after dark, revealed to the party by the field guide looted from Ruckus. Similar to the rot sticker mobs Carl faced on the first floor, they run, attach themselves to a target, and detonate. As the party drives the Royal Chariot back to Hump Town through the night, Katia Grim and Princess Donut snipe them without stopping to engage — one more reason the crawlers race to finish their work before nightfall.

Appearance

Small, fist-sized nocturnal creatures that burst from the sand and cling to prey before exploding.

Role

The bubble's nocturnal suicide-swarm mobs, hazarding any crawler caught out after dark.

Relationships

Ruckus — The borough boss whose looted field guide catalogues them.
Katia Grim — Who snipes them from the moving Chariot.
