Aluvial Regeneration: When Muulu is in contact with silt, lose muddy banks or marshy ground he regenerates 2 hit points a round.

Muulu is a primordial monstrosity. He is roughly humanoid in shape and stands 7 feet tall and almost as wide. His body is made up of alluvial materials – silt, mud, grit, gravel and detritus deposited by running water and it is constantly shifting as though stirred by white-water. He has only rudimentary intelligence, but does not take kindly to intruders, battering them with his shifting body. Should he be killed and his vanquishers be desperate enough to pull apart his corpse, they will find 1d10 silver nuggets worth 10 sps each.

He lives in a network of subterranean lakes and pools that is also rumoured to house a Prime Troglodyte and his followers
