Zombie, Tyrant
Another version of the undead virus responsible for the creation of the Walking Dead affected a very small percentage of those infected. Like all Walking Dead, these creatures were mutated by the virus, and although deceased, had the need to consume the flesh of the living.
It remains uncertain if the virus was mutated due to the radiation and toxins released during the final wars, if something in the victim’s DNA caused the victim to become something far worse than a regular Walking Dead, or if these creatures are the direct result of deliberate changes introduced to the virus.
The mutated descendants of the common Skunk, these creatures are outright terrifying to those who encounter them. They have changed little from their ancestors, except that they are slightly larger, and instead of a pair of white-stripes down their back, they have three stripes.
Each specimen is approximately two feet in length, and weigh about ten pounds. They have sharp teeth and claws that are made for digging and pulling apart roots and rotten trunks to get at insects and grubs that are the staple of their diet.
Like their ancestors, when confronted with potential danger, these creatures will turn and present their rear to the attacker, and then shoot out a highly toxic and caustic stream of foul liquid. However, unlike their ancestors whose defensive spray merely stunk to high heaven, the spray produced by these creatures is acidic and highly flammable, on top of the nauseating stench.
When attacked, they can spray this toxic blend at targets up to 50 feet away. This is considered a ranged attack and will affect only a single target. If the attack hits, then the acid begins to work, causing an initial 3d6 points of damage. This damage will be reduced by 1d6 per round until the acid is no longer effective. To make matters worse, if the target is carrying an open flame, or uses any weapon that produces thermal damage, the spray will instantly explode, causing 6d6 damage to anyone in a 15 foot radius from the target. This will automatically neutralize the acid, rendering it harmless.
If that was not bad enough, the target must make a saving throw versus poison or become nauseated from the stench. This will last for 4d6 turns, at which time the victim will finally adjust to the smell. Anyone with the increased senses (smell) mutation suffer a -4 to the save and the duration is doubled!
The spray can be washed off by any sort of liquid that contains citric acid, or even alcohol. If left unchecked, the victim will stink so badly that anyone who comes within 15 feet must make a saving throw versus poison or become nauseated until they leave the area of effect. After that time, the nausea will wear off in 1d4 rounds.
They can use this attack once every three rounds, and have enough toxic spray for 2d4 uses. Their bodies produce enough of the spray to replenish 1d4 doses per day if they use all of the toxic chemical.
The creatures are very curious, and love to sneak into camps and communities to poke around. They are quite adept at opening containers and even doors, allowing them to access any food they might find of interest, or just to satisfy their curiosity. Being nocturnal, they are rarely ever encountered during the daylight.
If taken young, they can be turned into loving and loyal pets, which will never use their spray attack against their masters. Typically they have to be less than three months old in order to be domesticated, although they never do lose their insatiable curiosity.
Mutations: Aberrant form (natural weapons), increased senses (hearing and smell), night vision, toxic weapon.

Amphibious The Cetus can breathe air and water.
Hibernator The Cetus has disadvantage on saving throws made to resist sleep effects.
Siege Monster The Cetus deals double damage to objects and structures.
Actions
Breach Starting underwater, the Cetus quickly surfaces and capsizes any Huge or smaller ships that are in squares adjacent to it.
Swallow A single Huge target, two Large targets, or any number of Medium or smaller targets that are in a 30 ft. cone in front of the Cetus are swallowed. While swallowed, creatures are blinded and restrained, have total cover against attacks and other effects outside the Cetus, and take 14 (4d6) acid damage at the start of each of the Cetus’ turns.
If the Cetus takes 50 damage or more on a single turn from creatures inside it, the Cetus must succeed on a DC 25 Constitution saving throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate all swallowed creatures, which fall prone in a space within 10 feet of the Cetus. If the Cetus dies, a swallowed creature is no longer restrained by it and can escape from the corpse using 15 feet of movement, exiting prone.
Tail Slap Melee Weapon Attack: +17 to hit, reach 30ft., up to 4 targets in squares adjacent to each other. Hit: 41 (8d6 + 13) bludgeoning damage. Creatures targeted and within 30 ft. of this attack must succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC 23) or be stunned for 1 round.
