Living Abomination

A Living Abomination is a monstrous creature usually resulted from the botched resurrection of an undead. These monstrous beings usually share little in appearance with what they used to be, sometime appearing to be bloated monsters or a being made form multiple corpse part stitched together. Their appearance varies quite a bit, with very few of them looking pretty much humanoid while most are completely monstrous.
