Capsule Description: Necrobeetles are undead Tether Beetles that have been carelessly allowed to nest in a Coffin of Undeath.  Their subsequent zombification makes them annoying (if short-lived pests).

The bite of a Necrobeetle causes 1 hit of damage to those currently using a vessel: however, a corporeal entity that has been bitten must roll versus Strength or become ill, losing 1d6 hits over the next hour.  If this is enough to kill the corporeal entity, all rolls to later zombify the corpse will be at +3.
