The Forkrul Assail Keeper is discovered as a withered corpse, its form a testament to the alien nature of its kind. With limbs too long and joints too numerous, the body could bend in ways that defy human anatomy. Found lying on a nest of bones, it represents an ancient, otherworldly presence whose very structure speaks to a different order of being.

Description

A withered corpse with limbs that are too long and joints that are too numerous, allowing the body to bend in impossible directions. The skin is stretched tight over protruding bones. The form lies on a nest of bones, the proportions all wrong by human standards, suggesting an anatomy that belongs to another species entirely.
