These degenerate humanoids may have had human ancestors in the distant past, but they bear only slight resemblance to men in the current day. They are pigmentless albinos, entirely eyeless, with massive pointed ears, mouths full of fangs, and claws on their hands and feet. Both males and females may be encountered in a group, and both are equally vicious. They do not wear clothing, and attack with their filthy claws. The screechmen use echolocation to find their prey. Rather than the quiet clicks of bats, the screechmen issue horrible screams at regular intervals. It is thus virtually impossible to be surprised by a screech man. On the flip side, these screams are letting the screechmen know about the party’s presence, so it is impossible to surprise a screaming screech man. It is also incredibly hard to escape a screech man hunting party, as their screams allow them to “see” as far as 120’. Instinct: to gorge
