Skin Kites

Skin Kites are entities which we believe to be holdovers of the age of the fleshcrafter civilization.  They appear to be simply animated skins with no bone or muscular structure which usually wield incredibly old weaponry.  They are quite horrible to look at, having the ability to cause even the most battle worn veteran to flee the mere sight of them.  What is even more disturbing is their ability to regenerate themselves even after they have been visibly slain.  Thus far no way, to my knowledge, has been found to stop this regeneration aside from repeatedly slaying them until the process stops.

It is believed by myself (Talon) that these creatures originate from the catacombs which run under much of the forest, or at least the area we currently find ourselves.  Expeditions taken by others outside of our town have reported creatures within the catacombs similar to the Skin Kites we have encountered on the surface, though apparently much more horrifying and having other strange abilities, such as being able to spew an incredibly corrosive acid with accuracy.  As of yet there are no plans for citizens of Nexus to explore the catacombs, and I (Talon) highly caution any who would think of doing so against such action as there are other, more powerful entities within such as the Lord of Worms.
