Ghul
Level 5Attacks
Abilities
The ghul takes on the appearance of a Small or Medium Hyena. This doesn't change its Speed or Strikes. Effects or abilities that detect the presence of undead don't reveal the ghul as an undead while in this form.
Requirements The ghul has a creature Grabbed or Restrained
Effect The ghul attempts to eat a portion of the grabbed creature's flesh. It makes a jaws Strike against the grabbed creature. On a success, the ghul successfully devours some of the flesh and regains 3d6 healing Hit Points. The grabbed creature becomes Drained 1 (or Drained 2 if the jaws Strike was a critical success).

Legends claim the gods banished a number of evil, greedy, and gluttonous genies to the Material Plane in the early days of creation. There, the genies transformed into the first ghuls, cruel undead that feast on the flesh of the living. The greedy and gluttonous nature of the first ghuls lives on, cursing them with an insatiable need to consume. Ghuls haunt trade routes, cemeteries, and other locations with good hiding places and a regular influx of travelers. From here, ghuls use their abilities to confuse and captivate passersby, luring them toward dens where ghuls can feast on unsuspecting flesh. Unlike a ghoul, a ghul doesn't devour corpses—only live prey.
