The nuckelavee is a distended, centaur-like creature with a humanoid torso and forearms like spears. Its lower body is the headless corpse of a horse. It lacks flesh, being covered instead by bloody muscle and sharp protruding bones. Its eyes are shrunken and nearly useless, but its sense of smell is acute. More terrible than its rending claws and sharp fangs are the toxins which it exhales with each rasping breath. Anything exposed to the nuckelavee's fumes quickly withers, spoils, and dies. Instinct: To cause sickness

• Blight crops and rot buildings
