Butt Zombie

The Butt Zombie is an undead enemy found in The Boneyard. With 15 HP and movement 5, it is a fast burrowing threat that can appear almost anywhere on the battlefield. It digs underground and resurfaces on any empty tile, bypassing obstacles entirely and then strikes every adjacent unit with a consecutive melee attack that hits each neighbor in sequence.

When struck, the Butt Zombie flips upside down. In this inverted state it farts at the start of each turn, and any further hit while inverted causes it to release a poisonous gas cloud that knocks back adjacent units and inflicts Poison 4. Movement actions flip it back upright, resetting the mechanic. The zombie leaves no corpse when defeated. Because its melee hits each adjacent direction as a separate strike, abilities like Body Guard interact with each individual hit.

Space your cats out to prevent the Butt Zombie from hitting multiple party members on emergence. Positioning between obstacles limits where it can dig up. Against an inverted Butt Zombie, switch to ranged attacks to avoid triggering the Poison 4 gas burst. If you must use melee, make the blow lethal so it cannot respond. Fast finisher abilities that don't care about positioning are ideal for keeping the encounter clean.
