Shrieker

Shriekers are NPCs that can be found and encountered in item asylum. They only spawn from successful uses of inferi, a scroll spell. They can also be spawned with a single use spawning item, bound shrieker.
==Overview==
Shriekers takes an appearance of a typical ROBLOXian with an unamused face expression. They have a grey skin tone and wear black attire, implying their nature as a zombie-like creature. They walk in a zombie-like fashion.
Prior to v1.0.0, Shriekers appeared to be a typical male ROBLOXian with dark gray skin tone. Their face resembled that of an angry or unamused expression. Their clothing attires resembles how they look like in their source game, except a bit more doodley. They also have the word "IA" etched on their shirt.
== Gameplay ==
Shriekers are bound to the player that created them. They will not attack their creator, nor will they attack any allies of their creator. If created in a team-based mode, their outfit will be adjusted to show their team allegiance.
Shriekers have 150 HP and 22 walkspeed. Once spawned, shriekers immediately begin to chase down the nearest hostile character. Shriekers will start dealing damage once they are within melee range of their target, raising their arms in an attempt to slam them down on their intended target. They deal 15 damage per hit and apply curse, with a short cooldown between each attack. Kills made by the bound shrieker will be awarded to their summoner. 
If a character happens to be holding a light source such as a torch or lamp, the Shrieker will avoid going into the light. If the character with the light source is the nearest valid target, they will continue to give chase, but remain outside of the light source's radius. 
==Trivia==
*Shriekers were formerly named "Bound Shrieker". While their name changed, the bound shrieker summoning item retained its name.
*There is no limit as to how many Shriekers you can summon.
