THE SWAMPMEN

A frequently nomadic, humanoid race of low intelligence found primarily in The Dagth Swamp. Gray-skinned and covered in moss, they are hunter-gatherers, many of whom live in the village of Malthar. They are a hostile race, but easily frightened.

The Creep

A terrible, frequently fatal, fungal infection that originated in the Dagth Swamp, where a thick moss grows throughout your body. It often requires amputation before it infects your blood and kills you. It has been known to start internally first (possibly from drinking contaminated water) and begins to grow from the inside out. This is mostly in terribly advanced cases where a vital organ is not shut down early resulting in a quick death. It seems to spread only through cuts, ingestion and the swapping of bodily fluids.

It is common among the Swampmen but does not affect them terribly besides being the cause of the unsightly moss growth on their skin they are known for.
