Mistake

Once a highly intelligent bug, deformed by the misuse of soul.

Hunter’s notes

These fools meddled with the soul of other creatures and lost their shape. Now they skulk through the shadows of their Sanctum like slugs, hoping their old brothers will build them new bodies.

The notes unlock after 25 kills.
