Name: Vyrhel
Classification: NPC Parasite
Appearance: Vyrhel are roughly as tall as the human knee. They move via a small cluster of tentacles that stem from the base of its round "head"
The head of a Vyrhel varies depending on what kind it is. These heads lack eyes, ears, noses, hair or mouths
Spitters have a vent-like structure at the front of their head, and vertebrae-like protusions from their back, like an malnorished human.
Rockhead heads are covered in a rocky chitin that protects the creature. Because of the chitin, Rockheads appear featureless
Gas Vyrhel have a similiar vent to Spitters, but have pipe-like appendages that protrude from the base of the head.
Shared traits: All Vyrhel appear a little stunned when they are alone - they wander aimlessly and double back again and again. When nearby a living creature, they will panic and emit scared squeaking sounds before attacking. Vyrhel do not seem to react to one anothers presence, but will work together to take out other creatures.
Natural abilities: Spitter Vyrhel have the ability to spit a vile, corrosive acid at foes. This acid will eat through most hard surfaces, but has notacibly little effect on cloth, linen and leather. Upon contact with skin, victims feel an intense heat, but will not actually take any damage. However, layers of dead skin and hair will burn away. Contact with eyes will result in blindness, and consumtion of the acid can be fatal. The Spitter as been reported to absorb the acid, which suggests that the creature somehow feeds off whatever it melts. This is the only Vyrhel with no known reproductive capabilities.
Rockheaf Vyrhel are have a strong, chitinous casing around their "head". This is used to headbutt foes, and can crack less malleable metals like bronze. They are notably weak to bludgeons. When nearby a corpse, they will burrow into it. A few days later, the corpse will explode with about half a dozen young Vyrhel. It is unknown if the Rockhead itself survives this process, but all current observed Rockhead reproductions have yielded at least one Rockhead.
Gas Vyrhel will spray a noxious vapour in all directions. Whilst the gas doesn't get very far - roughly a Vyrhel-length away from the Gas Vyrhel itself - breathing it in will result in nausea, vomiting, panic, hallucinations and death within the space of a day. Like the Rockhead, the dead creature will later explode with new Vyrhel spores.
