Cynocephale Mummy (Timeless)

The Cynocephale Mummy is a zombie encountered only in Ancient Egypt. It is a very swift ennemy, with a high speed and the ability to climb around buildings and various elements of the decor to attack players from above. They are quite small, but are very vulnerable to fire and haven't a lot of HP, relying mainly on their agility
==Appearance and origins==
The Cynocephale Mummy is a mummified version of the Pio hamadryas, a sacred monkey for the Egyptians, that was commonly mummified during ancient egypt, and is commonly called a Cynocephale because of his canine-like jaws.
It is around 80 centimeters tall, and is covered by weathered bandages that let you see his jaws, his skull and his fingers.
When moving around, they will be mostly in a quadrupedal position, and sometimes sit down and observe their surroundings when they aren't doing anything.
==Strategies==
Due to their high speed and small, they will be hard to hit, and also have a tendency to climb up palms and houses to fall down on your head, usually damaging you without leaving any chance. First, try to keep an eye on the top of the buildings ; it is usually where they will be travelling, sometimes observing you before attacking. Then, don't bother shooting them too much, as their little hops and their agility will make them avoid most of your shots, and Throwing Sticks are especially useless due to their slow speed and how predictable they are. When they get very close, step back to avoid them directly falling on you, and use a weapon like a Khepesh to kill them, as 2 hits should generally be enough. If they are into larger groups, try attacking them with a Torch, as you might set them on fire. If you can attack them from behind, then a Dagger will just yeet the heck out of them in a single attack.
When they directly runs towards you, try shooting at them a little bit, but not too much, since they will usually dodge shots. Prepare simply a good close range weapon, and when they are about to jump at you, swing it. It should normally stun him a little, and give you enough time to attack again and kill him
