 The C.H.U.D. or Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dweller. A human being turned pale and mad from years of underground isolation. 

This creature is a human sized mutant. It's a competent fighter with moderate hit points. It's a bit faster than you, agile, has no armor against bashing weapons and no armor against cutting ones (that includes bullets). Its special ability allows it to perform a special scratch attack, every 15 turns.

It has low morale and it's quite aggressive. Being a mutant, it's afraid of nearby fires, and can be angered by nothing in particular.

It can see, can hear noises, is warm blooded (it appears in infrared), can bash destroyable objects in its way (like doors), gets help from surrounding monsters when bashing objects, can produce human flesh when butchered, can produce leather when butchered, can produce bones and sinews when butchered, and nothing else.

Being made of flesh, it's vulnerable to nothing in particular.

When it dies, nothing unusual happens.


(View - Edit Notes )Notes

  • Named for the cult classic horror film CHUD, in which such creatures infest New York's sewers.
  • C.H.U.D. means "Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dweller"; in the movie it is also a reference to an organization: "Contamination Hazard Urban Disposal".
  • Typically these creatures can be found in subways and sewers.
  • May sometimes drop mutagen when killed, this makes them quite valuable to kill when you find them.
