A spawned yaoguai is a monstrosity born of unnatural magic that tried and failed to recreate another creature or that sought to combine several different creatures into one body, creating a deformed, mismatched monster that slays and escapes its creator as soon as possible. No two spawned yaoguai look the same, but most have similar abilities. Invariably, the torment of its genesis and the ongoing pain of its existence leave a spawned yaoguai violently insane and prone to attacking at the slightest provocation.
