Writhing Nightmare | Creature Statblock
Today's 5E creature stat block begins our July delve into Eldritch Horror! Meet the Writhing Nightmare, the remnants of priests who have been consumed by the Parasite of Prayer.
The Black Sea of Void surrounding Erenel is home to Eldritch gods known as the Null. One of these otherworldly beings is the Parasite of Prayer. A Null who steals worship, feasting on temples and clergies, spreading secretly amongst the clerics and priests unaware of the shroud that has befallen them.
After the Parasite of Prayer has finished spreading its spiritual nullity and consumed the faith of an individual, it often feasts upon the unfortunate priest one final time, changing someone who was once a pillar of light into nothing more than a humanoid shadow of maggots. A zombified parasite desperately searching for any resemblance of the faith they lost.
