A MERLIN VOCABULARY GUIDE


G
for
 GHOULIANTS

"They used to stay underground, in their caves.  But now they run free,
and they kill just for pleasure.  There are ghouliants - the deathless warriors who guard the Shrouded Castle.  And there is Stangmar, the king who commands them all." (.148-149)

"The ghouliants themselves are part of the castle they guard.  That is why they never venture outside the castle walls. (p.171)

Deathless warriors, they were men whose bodies were raised from the dead by Rhita Gawr.
