Infested Moose | Church of the Acarid

LORE & BACKGROUND

The moose of the swamp’s edges were already dangerous beasts, swift and powerful. Under infestation they become horrors unmatched in speed and violence. Their antlers are jagged spears that can pierce through armor, their bulk turned into a battering ram driven by alien will. Each step across the mire is heavy with unnatural rhythm, staggering as multiple parasites tug at muscles in conflict.

This one bears a greater burden: a human fused grotesquely into its torso, half-swallowed by growths that writhe like tendrils. The victim’s muffled cries echo through the fog, heard long before the beast itself charges. This cruel fusion is more than spectacle; it feeds the brood, nutrients drawn from both man and beast. The Infested Moose is one of the brood’s most terrifying hunters. Few can withstand its speed, and fewer still its impact. To see it is to face inevitability, a force of mass and violence that will not stop until its prey is dragged back into the hive.
