Maggot

Found in every area where mountains of corpses are present, these bloated pests are the larval stage of the common housefly. However, the reason why they have grown to enormous size and not yet pupated into flies is currently unknown. It is possible that the corruption which plagues the Estate prevents them from maturing any further, or that feeding on the corpses left over from the Ancestor’s experiments in necromancy may have caused changes within them. Trapped in their larval forms, these carriers of filth and disease have only one instinct: to eat decaying flesh. And if there are no corpses nearby, they are more than willing make their own.

Behavior
Maggots first appear to be small, inconsequential obstacles to an adventuring party's progress, due to their minor health pool and lack of protection. However, their only ability, Grave Nibble, is a great nuisance as it inflicts stress damage, has a chance to Stun, a reasonable chance to Crit, and, worst of all, can inflict a Disease. They are usually found either in a group of four or paired with Spitters or even a Ghoul on higher difficulties. Dispatching these enemies, while not very difficult, should be among your first priorities in battle, lest they begin building up stress and nullifying your heroes' turns.
