Quth-maren were undead creatures created from flayed corpses by clerics of Kiaransalee.[2]
Description
With every scrap of skin flayed from their bodies and their exposed muscles incessantly oozing acidic blood, the quth-maren were hideous creatures. Unlike zombies, quth-maren did not decompose.[2]
Abilities
Intelligent adversaries and vicious in groups, quth-maren had a number of abilities that made them disturbing opponents.[2]
They had caustic blood that burned those who touched it. Their bodies constantly oozed this caustic blood, so anyone that struck the quth-maren in melee unarmed or with a natural weapon would be harmed themselves. Moreover, a quth-maren could even spit a glob of this blood every so often, causing it to splash over foes near where it landed.[2]
A quth-maren could rapidly heal from wounds inflicted on it.[2]
A quth-maren could attempt to command undead in the same manner that an evil cleric could.[2]
Any living creature that came within 30 feet (9.1 meters) of a quth-maren and met its baleful gaze risked simply cowering in fear at the sight of it.[2]
History
In 1372 DR, Dorina T'sarran seized control of Szith Morcane and ordered the priestesses of Lolth there to be flayed and transformed into quth-marens.[3]
