Canon Information

Ashen husks are undead created when a person dies of extreme thirst. They have a dehydrating aura and those killed by this effect arise as new, free-willed ashen husks.[1]

Descriptive Text

Delirious thoughts of a sick and weak widower in Sebua:

"No! I plead you not to go hunting for her, Sahib! Please! My wife is back for me, on this moonless night! For me! The thirst for her! I could not believe the shouts my neighbours made “Nahlah is back”! We thought she died in the desert! But she came to my house tonight! Yes, Sahib! My tears of joy from seeing her dried quickly when she came to embrace me. The thirst! She came from the realm of Osiris for me! Oh, the thirst for her! Then your priest friend chased her! The thirst! The thirst!"

We chased this skeletal creature from the village with our holy symbols. Later, six persons were found dried dead in and around the village. We shall hunt this horror tomorrow."

-Journal of Dominic, humble anchorite[2]
