<p><b>Summary</b>: The most common species encountered.
They are capable of blurring speed and leaps of
near limitless height. The Skulk is a light, wiry
creature around the size of a very large dog.
Lacking any projectile attacks, it specializes
in melee. It moves on all fours – each leg
terminates in a long, sharp, bladed bone. It can
attack with these, and its powerful jaws. If it
cannot be stopped before reaching its target,
its target is in serious trouble. [<a href="alien_skulk_name.html">Name</a>]</p>
