Cursed Thrall

Cursed Thralls are variant of Thrall that is easily identified by its bright green glow and that its arms are wrapped around its chest. Instead of rushing in and slashing at enemies with their claws like normal Thralls, Cursed Thralls instead detonate when they reach close proximity, dealing massive damage to anyone or anything nearby. Also, unlike normal Thralls, Cursed Thralls rarely rush their target(s), favoring to use ambush tactics and a higher health pool to get close to enemies instead.

When their health is depleted, they will explode on the spot. This can be used to a player's advantage as they can be used to weaken or even kill groups of enemies with little effort, especially if there are multiple Cursed Thralls grouped together.
