A vile naked human in appearance, bony and with long sharp fingers and clawed toes,
the dune stalker roams desert areas in response to
summons from high level evil magicians. It will attack good characters
only; any alignment combined with good will attract attack.

It is a faultless tracker, as the invisible stalker once set on a particular mission. <e>

The dune stalker's attack is usu. by sonic vibration which has a
range of 60' and delivers 2-12 HP of damage on a single TARGET (no save). <>

Kiss of death: In close contact the stalker can deliver the 'kiss of death' by placing its lips
in direct contact with skin.
The sonic vibrations thus set up in the victim's body are of such an intensity
that failure to make a save vs. Spells means instant death.
A successful save negates the effect.

Dune stalkers can only be harmed by magical weapons. <e>
