Other information

Summoning Powers

Similar to their lesser brethren, greater moor wights have even more potent abilities to conjure into existence other undead beings.

In areas with muddy wetland terrain, these wights are capable of summoning greater fetid corpses out of the mire:

A greater fetid corpse emerges from the stinking mire, moaning evilly!

If the terrain is too hard and dry to allow this trick, they may instead call upon their less threatening ally, the luminous spectre:

A cold mist seeps up out of the ground, slowly dissipating to reveal a luminous spectre.

Interaction with corpses

A greater moor wight is not going to help rescue you when dead. In fact, it will further mangle your body:

And move your corpse about wherever it pleases:
