THE CRAWLER'S COMPANIONpatch notes for the apocalypse

Former Circus Lemur

First seen: Book 2, Chapter 4

Level 8 floor 3 mob: feral, transformed descendants of Grimaldi's Traveling Circus's juggling lemurs, wearing painted human skulls as masks and throwing knives instead of juggling them. Appear in a swarm out of a ruined building's windows and roof, some riding a giraffe; Carl and Donut fight through them on the way to a safe room, several catching fire from a thrown boom jug.

Mob

Level

8B2C4

Physical

Appearance:

Red-furred, monkey-like creatures small enough to sit on a window ledge, wearing black-and-red-painted human skull masks, throwing knives carried in shoulder bandoliersB2C4

True Head:

Underneath its painted human skull mask sits a second, real skull of its own: no fur or skin at all, just a pair of bulbous, bloodshot eyes. Scarier bare than masked, per Carl, once Mongo tears the mask off one he's just helped killB2C5

Location

A rooftop overlooking the street where three crawlers died, near the same ruined block as the previous chapter's ambush; at least one more lounges asleep across the street, unengaged as the chapter endsB2C5

A ruined multi-story building a few streets over from a park, pouring out of its windows and roof; some ride a giraffe down the street, and several catch fire when Carl arcs a boom jug high onto the roofB2C4
