This wood-dwelling, intelligent form of plant life looks like a zombie but is infact neither animal nor of the undead class. Embedded in its 'flesh' all over its body are masses of small sharp needles. Needlemen were created by Trevor Graver. They originally appeared in Fiend Factory, a regular article in the magazine White Dwarf and later in the AD&D Fiend Folio. The NWN version created by cyberglum.
damn good work, had my pnp party recently encounter a few and they gained much respect for these spindly seemingly harmless creatures. They can shell out a whole lot of damage over a long range.......defintiely not for low parties.
good job

Thanks guys. They're quite simple, just the ghoul model with the barkskin visual effect applied onspawn. I made them Fey and as there original description says, the take extra damage from fire.
Careful how you use them, a single one can be quite devastating to a low level party if they don't close it down quick enough,
