Special Powers: Sluagh assimilate recently dead at a 10. They roam the country side causing great destruction where they go, often uprooting trees in the woods or causing small avallanches in the mountains.

Culture: They travel in a flock, floating about (mostly at night) through the countryside. If they are not harvesting new members of the flock, they are causing wanton destruction. Like poltergeists, they delight in mischief, but due to their large flocks, they tend to do more damage, despite being weaker on their own. Flocks tend to range from four to forty sluagh.

Notables: The largest flock ever came near the end of First Shem, having 1000 sluagh.
