==Useful Info==
'''Flaming corpses''' are literally [[fire|fiery]] undead cadavers rushing toward you to spread their flames. Their melee attacks inflict [[Sticky Flame]], and they run faster than the average character. They are fortunately rare, appearing most often in [[the Crypt]] and [[the Abyss]], but occasionally spawning in the middle-[[Dungeon]].

==Tips & Tricks==
*[[Yredelemnul]] worshipers may receive flaming corpses as pets at high [[piety]].
*If taking them out quickly at range isn't an option, bring high [[fire]] resistance or [[mottled dragon armour]], and [[conservation]] to protect your scrolls.
*While they normally avoid [[shallow water]], if you can [[confusion|confuse]] one into falling in, its fire goes out, rendering it [[invisible]] but much less dangerous.

==History==
*Flaming corpses were removed in [[0.15]].
*Prior to [[0.8]], flaming corpses had [[:Category:Human_intelligence|human intelligence]].
*Flaming corpses were added in [[0.5]]. They were the first monster with [[:Category:Sticky_flame_resistance|Sticky Flame resistance]].
