Totenmaske

Spawned by the same unnatural and self-destructive obsessions that drove them when they still lived, totenmaskes are the undead remnants of the most self-indulgent and sinful among mortals. Their need for indulgence proved stronger than even the grasp of death, raising them from their graves. Though unable to sate their depraved desires, these foul undead can drain the very flesh from their victims so as to wrap themselves in a perverse mockery of life that allows them to pursue their base wants. Totenmaskes' specific longings vary—one might be obsessed with food or drink, while another might be vain and desirous of an attractive form to marvel at in a mirror, while yet another could simply long for the scent of blood.

Whatever sensation the totenmaske seeks, it's always a vice taken to the extreme, for this sin helped condemn them to undeath in the first place. A totenmaske obsessed with food, for example, might find themself assaulting bakeries or breweries, while a vain totenmaske obsessed with glamor could quickly grow bored of each new look and switch their victims out daily, or even hourly.
