PUPPETS

HP: 4
Bludgeon (d4) or Skinning Knife (d6)

• Chirp: Puppets have an uncanny ability to throw sound, emulating a twisted version of voices they’ve heard recently.
• Rework: With access to a fresh supply of flesh and the right tools, a Puppet can repair and reassemble itself to recover lost STR. With the right tools and new flesh they can be reassembled from most damage.
• Flayed: When a Puppet deals Critical Damage, they cut deep, flaying a chuck of the skin in preparation for later harvesting.

Puppets are creatures made of human flesh stretched over wooden mannequins. In low light or the dark, they may appear as mundane mannequins, the truth of their form being revealed upon venturing too close. Puppets tend to have unique personalities, but are all driven to harvest more material to drape over their forms.
