A plague walker is disgusting form of undead that is so stuffed with rotting and nauseating [[[flesh]] that it is all but spherical. Its touch induces nausea and pain that sickens its target. When near destruction, a plague walker can self-destruct in an explosive burst of putrid gore, damaging and nauseating nearby creatures. Unlike many forms of spellcaster-created undead, the plague walker has some limited amount of intelligence, but only the most basic.[1]
Plague walkers can be created by spellcasters capable of using Necromancy spells with a two day ritual using 800 gold pieces worth of unholy water and 4 Medium size corpses.[2] Despite their name, standard plague walkers do not seem to normally spread long-lasting diseases.
