What is it's name?: Jikininki
What is it's story?: Jikininki was a Japanese man who worked day in, day out, and he had a terrible life. His boss was always angry, his wife divorced from him and won custody over the children, he barely had friends, he had low pay, and worst of all, he was an insomniac. Suddenly in his life, his life turned for the better, he was now rich and famous, for the invention of a universal device, his boss was happy with him, and his wife came back to him. However, over time he slowly became selfish, and greedy, to the point of neglecting everyone and everything, and soon that neglect turned to hate. He gotten so mad over simple things, that he had brutally killed his family, and afterward ate them. His neighbors, disturbed by the noises and screaming, called the police. Horrified by what they saw, the police shot Jikininki to death, and he was given an improper burial.
Yurei, who saw fit to revive him, resurrected Jikininki back to life once more, but accidentally morphed him into a hideous and deformed beast in the process, but nevertheless he served useful in the war..
What does it look like?: Jikininki is said to look like a decomposing cadaver, perhaps with a few inhuman features such as sharp claws or glowing eyes. His hunched body is covered in blisters, abrasions, scars, infections and almost completely devoid of hair, except for random tufts. He is a horrifying sight, and any mortal who views him finds themself frozen in fear. Though, unlike other Ghouls, Jikininki has a body to act with.
How does it play?: Jikininki is a melee ghoul. It has fast and strong attacks, and also has multiple weapons for itself, which all prove to be effective. The downside for Jikininki is that, it has very low health, having only 50 HP, and doesn't have armor, and is also very slow, allowing for easy attacks on it. Jikininki also has the unique ability to climb up walls, and not be damaged by poisonous or any kind of floor tile that damages others. One particular fun ability for Jikininki is he would be able to destroy any weapons/equipment it comes across. He also can jump further than others to make up for the fact he can't fly. Two major downsides for Jikininki, is that whenever any of his attacks miss, he is stunned for two and a half seconds, and also can damage friendlies.
What are it's weapons?: Jikininki only has three weapons and one base weapons. His first is his poison claws, which does what you think it does, poisons the enemy, constantly draining health and transferring 1/2 of the health drained back to Jikininki. However, to gain the Poison claws, you have to walk over a poison tile to gain it.
His second is the stun claws, which again, does what is says, Stuns the enemy, leaving it wide open for any other attack. He has to recharge it after using it.
His last, is his ability to morph into any enemy he kills, allowing him to walk directly into enemy cover and attack from behind. He has to kill something, in order to morph into it, and the disguise instantly wears out the second he attacks. Recharges.
His base weapon, is just his claws, which have long range, and do 30-50 damage.
Why does it belong on GvH?: I think the ghoul side has been lacking in one of those creatures that can disguise itself.
