Hey all,
I could use some more one-word prompts from all of you.
One per customer. Just one word. Leave it down in the comments.

An often overlooked feature of vampires is their ability to exist in environments that do not require air. As such, some crafty vampires move their lairs to underwater caverns. These remote locations offer vampires several advantages such as a lack of air for creatures who'd hunt it and an overal...

Rolling through dungeons, graveyards, and battlefields come the corpse balls. And they are exactly what they sound like: a huge wad of zombies that can bowl over even the strongest adventurer.
Who created these horrible things? Does it matter? Look out! Here comes one now!

Once I get the final final draft, I'll replace this here.
