Alghoul



A particularly large ghoul that is fattened and craves warm meat is called an alghoul. It prefers to kill its victims, because it loves to eat, but it also likes to prepare its own meals.

Occurrence
Alghouls appear in old necropolises and crypts.

Immunity
Immune to common poisons and resistant to knockdown attempts.

Susceptibility
Sensitive to silver; the Strong Style is most efficient against alghouls; experienced witchers use the Group Style while fighting multiple ghouls.

Tactics
Alghouls try to knock down their victims and eat them alive.

Alchemy
Cadaverine, white vinegar, and alghoul marrow.
