Erasmus

Erasmus should be hideous to look at. A huge crab's claw juts out from one malformed arm. He is ghostly white, having not seen the sun for fifteen years. Wide, milky eyes stare out from a hairless face. Though a hunchbacked teenage boy he is large, towering misshapenly over most men. Yet somehow those that he talks to feel drawn to him, eager to hear his promises of the
bloodshed they will inflict in his name.
