A black, thoroughly charred cadaver covered in unquenchable fire, likely the remains of some unfortunate adventurer. It now rushes madly through the dungeon, seeking to share its fate with others.

Useful Info

Flaming corpses are literally 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.
