Crawling Hand - AI-generated fantasy Monster

Crawling Hand

Crawling Hands are created when a corpse is prepared with a mixture of grave salt, lampblack, and blood taken from a willing servant of a death cult. This hand once belonged to an embalmer who heard the chant beneath room-8 and attempted to open the western passage. The ritual severed the hand from the body but left its purpose intact.
