This sneaky, trouble-making mutant is a notorious thief and ravenous scavenger, using its solid, rodent-like skull to tunnel down through soil, wood and even stone to reach buried corpses. Its organs are concentrated primarily within the skull, its body consisting of no more than rubbery, amorphous flesh, a series of stomachs, and dozens of bony claws that can be carried to the tips of pseudopodia as needed. By day, it draws its skull completely inside its body and distributes its claws evenly throughout its surface, becoming a wickedly barbed putty-like sphere until nightfall. Multiple Grave-snitch may even meld together to further protect one another from predation.

   For unknown reasons, every individual snitch is obsessed with collecting something specific from the corpses of humans. Some may pilfer only the pocket change of the dead; others may go for teeth, hair, fingernails or vertebrae. They may even maintain a secret horde in a forgotten crypt, dried-up well or abandoned house, much to the confusion and disappointment of naive treasure-hunters.

   Gravesnitch seem to "worship" the half-moon, and celebrate these nights by joining in circles and chattering their jaws.
