This section contains canon info from officially published sources

The stitched are a type of Obedient Dead thought created by the necromancer Grandall. They are constructed from the bodies of two living creatures sewn together by a magic string and then murdered. The string also serves to bind their souls. Stitched regenerate hit point damage save for that from fire. Their claws cause bleeding and infect their targets with stiching rot.^[1]

TAILOR OF MAYKLE, THE
IDENTITY: Never determined.
LOCATION: Maykle, Darkon.
DATE: October 743.
UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES: The victims were found arranged in their place of work, their eyes, mouths, and noses sewn shut. Suppurating wounds were found on their torsos and arms, but suffocation was the apparent cause of death. Most notable, however, was the "inscription" sewn into the chest of Master Gullsby White: "A timely stitch slays six."
RELATED CRIMES: Popular rumor related these killings to the burning of the gnomish tailor Master Eber Alloways' shop and home, which caused the death of his daughters Petreka and Alsanea. The victims (at least three of whom were business competitors of Master Alloways) were supposedly the instigators or the actual perpetrators of this crime, but lack of evidence lead to the case being thrown out of court. Master Alloways left Maykle after this sad incident and was resident in Corvia at the time of crime; no evidence was found to connect him to this second murder.
