**AC:** 13 **HP:** 9 **Speed:** [object Object] **STR:** 4 **DEX:** 13 **CON:** 10 **INT:** 2 **WIS:** 10 **CHA:** 8 _Shrouds appear much like they did in life, only translucent and immaterial. Their voices are weak._ **Bitter Spirits.** Shrouds are transitional creatures: remnants of wicked people who died but refuse to rest in peace, yet have not grown strong enough to become shadows. They are aggressive enemies of all living creatures and the light that nurtures life. Shrouds blend naturally into darkness, but they stand out starkly in bright light. **Thin Outlines.** Shrouds look like flickering shadowy outlines of the people they were before they died, retaining the same height and body type. **Repetitive Speech.** Shrouds cannot converse, but they occasionally can be heard cruelly whispering a name, term, or phrase over and over again: something that must have had meaning to them in life. **Undead Nature.** A shroud doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.
