Publication history
Edit
The creature first appeared as the gluey in White Dwarf #7 (June/July 1978). The adherer then appeared in the original first edition Fiend Folio (1981).[2]
The adherer appeared in the second edition Fiend Folio Monstrous Compendium supplement (1992).[3]
DescriptionEdit
While the adherer is described as having a mummy-like appearance, it is not technically undead. Instead it is a humanoid covered with loose folds of white skin that is said to secrete an adhesive substance which causes weapons employed against it to be reduced in effectiveness and to stick to its body.
Other publishersEdit
The adherer appeared in the Tome of Horrors (2002) from Necromancer Games.[4]
The adherer is fully detailed in Paizo Publishing's book Misfit Monsters Redeemed (2010), on pages 4–9.[5]
