Bonewalker.png

A bonewalker is a 2 meter tall quadruped, with long, slender, bony legs and a ribcage chassis.

Bonewalkers survive on a diet of bones. Bonewalkers can speak every language, and are quite intelligent, but have no particular desires, other than a willingness to obey every command given to them by their master.

The bonewalker's unarmed attacks deal 1d6+2 damage (Muscle included), and it can attack through tiny, spontaneously generated portals, allowing it to attack creatures 15 meters beyond its reach, potentially past walls or other obstacles.

It can also create larger 2 meter wide, 0 meter deep portals, with one end adjacent to itself and the other end 30 meters away, as a move action; such portals disappear after 1 round.

The bonewalker's glowing face brightly illuminates out to 1 meter.

The bonewalker gets -1 to Perception in direct sunlight.
