Garbed in the tattered finery of his lost faith, this monastic lich is a decomposing humanoid of indiscernable heritage. Standing as high as a human, his distinguishing features have skin wrapped about a thin skeletal frame. Held together by nothing more than smouldering malice and some long forgotten curse, the monastic lich's flesh falls off in stinking bits as he shudders in agonizing ecstasy. In the center of his chest is a ragged hole, as if his heart had been ripped from its body.

Behind The Scenes

The "long forgotten curse" was the Ritual of Black Eternity, a Level 30 Evil Cleric spell they should not have been powerful enough to cast. The spectral monks are probably the ones who failed the ritual. Monastic liches were exceedingly rare in Rolemaster, because monks were what we would call semi-arms Elemental users, making necromancy far outside their realm of expertise. It is one of the numerous supposedly "impossible" aspects of The Broken Lands. These used to be monks of Kai, who guarded the hidden portal, fighting the hooded figures.
