The Fell -- Maelgral

The maelgral, or "walking dead," is the last state of the Fell vefore total decay. Maelgral have lost nearly all of their personality and are less dangerous, though more durable, than the other forms of undead. They have more durability and an inability to feel pain, but no longer have the dexterity to claw or bite their prey; instead, they can only attempt to bludgeon their victims with desperate clubbing motions of their often handless arms.

"Faengral" is a template that can be added to a faengral that fails to eat its own body weight in still-warm flesh in a single week and has an Intelligence score of 3 or lower.

When creating a maelgral, use the base creature's statistics rather than those created by the application of the faengral template. For instance, when adding the maelgral template to a faengral hobgoblin, simply apply the maelgral template directly to the hobgoblin's original statistics.

The maelgral is identical to the zombie template except as noted here.

Abilities: Unlike a zombie, a maelgral retains some element of animal cunning. Its Strength increases by 2, its Dexterity decreases by 2, it has no Constitution score, and its Intelligence is by necessity 3, but it retains the same Wisdom and Charisma it had before becoming a maelgral.
