Abyssal Wretch

Creatures bitten by Rutterkins are exposed to a terrible disease that infects them with the corrupting influence of the Abyss. Victims that succumb to the disease experience tremendous pain as their bodies become disfigured, flesh twisting around the bones, until they transform to join the mass of abyssal wretches that follow in the wake of the Rutterkin mob that laid them low.

Abyssal Wretchs will try and follow and find the Rutterkin that made it, and while they are loyal to Rutterkin, the Rutterkin seem to have no understanding of this, and will often ignore the Wretches following them. Often the Wretchs will sacrifice there lives for the Rutterkin, or be beaten to death if the Rutterkin so feels like it.

If the Rutterkin an Abyssal Wretch is following dies they will often begin following another, if none other are in sight, may attempt to simple hide away in the Abyss, becoming nothing more than a beast of the land essentially. Though sometimes they do find cracks into other realms, and attempt to hide themselves away there, feasting on any living creatures they can find.
