The Deadcurion is a monster in the series.

Characteristics

Deadcurions are skeletal warriors that have rotted away, still armed for battle as if they were alive. They can perform violent stabbing or slashing attacks with their lances to deal extra damage. Their spearheads are also coated in a toxin that can paralyse their opponents. When the deadcurions returned in IX, they also gained the ability to perform lethal stabbing attacks with their lances, true to their names. The zombies wear a full set of silver armour, including a plumed knight's helmet, and a tattered red cape that hangs from their shoulders. Although not a massive threat, their frightening appearance has sent many an adventurer screaming from battle. Their most notable feature is the horrifying eyeball that lazily hangs from their skulls.
