Necrolytes generally look like ordinary civilians with pale skin until they die. When they die they come back to life but with more of a rotted or decayed appearance which gets worse the more they die and come back to life until they just look like walking corpses.
Necrolytes are humanoid creatures who were infused with necrotic energy before birth which usually kills them and their mothers.

When they die they come back to life but with more of a rotted or decayed appearance which gets worse the more they die and come back to life until they just look like walking corpses. Necrolytes are humanoid creatures who were infused with necrotic energy before birth which usually kills them and their mothers. If they are buried with their mothers they grow in the womb until they dig themselves out of the womb and the grave. After they are "born" they rapidly grow over the course of several months into a full-size necrolyte.
