These ancient, evil behemoths were once the mighty kings of the subterranean spider kingdom of Azjol-Nerub. Though the Nerubians fell before the wrath of the Lich King during the fabled War of the Spider, the insidious Crypt Lords were swayed over to the Lich King's ranks and granted considerable power and the immortality of undeath. Now the giant, thundering beasts serve as the Lich King's mightiest warriors and the guardians of the Scourge's holdings in Northrend.

A warrior Hero, adept at summoning insect minions and crushing enemies. Betraying the Nerubian people, the Crypt Lords have sacrificed the lifeblood of thousands to bolster the Undead armies of Ner'zhul, winning an eternal life of servitude in his name. Attacks land units.

Abilities

Impale
	Cast Type : Active  Ability Type:  Magical Target Type : Point Target  Damage Type:  Magic Slams the ground with the Crypt Lord's massive claws, shooting spiked tendrils out in a straight line, dealing damage and hurling enemy ground units into the air in their wake, stunning them.
Cast Requirements : 100 9 s  Range:  700 Targets Allowed : Ground, Enemy, Neutral, Organic Area of Effect : 250 Damage : 75 / 120 / 165 Duration : 2 (1) / 3 (2) / 4 (3) s Wave Distance : 600 Air Duration : 1 second Notes : Airborne units can take damage and be attacked. Airborne units are untargetable by spells. Hotkey : E

Notes:

• Line up the enemy units to get the best results.

Spiked Carapace
	Cast Type : Passive Target Type : No Target  Damage Type:  Magic The Crypt Lord forms barbed layers of chitinous armor that increases its defence and returns damage to enemy melee attackers.
Damage returned : 15/25/35 % Bonus Armor : 3/5/7 Hotkey : S

• This ability is useful for making the Crypt Lord tougher and returns damage to attackers

Carrion Beetles
	Cast Type : Autocast  Ability Type:  Magical Target Type : No Target The Crypt Lord progenerates 2 Carrion Beetles from a target corpse to attack the Crypt Lord's enemies. Beetles are permanent but only 6 can be controlled at a time.
Cast Requirements : 50 9 s Targets Allowed : Dead Area of Effect : 900 Summoned Unit : Carrion Beetle (Level 1)/Carrion Beetle (Level 2)/Carrion Beetle (Level 3) Hotkey : C

Notes:

• These guys do not have a timer. All Carrion Beetles will remain when the Crypt Lord that summons them dies.

Locust Swarm
	Cast Type : Active  Ability Type:  Universal Target Type : No Target  Damage Type:  Physical Creates a swarm of angry locusts that bite and tear at nearby enemy units. As they chew the enemy flesh, they convert it into a substance that restores hit points to the Crypt Lord when they return.
Cast Requirements : 150 180 s Area of Effect : 800 Duration : 30 s Summoned Unit : Locust Summon Count : 20 Hotkey : L

Notes:

• Locust Swarm is kind of similar to Protoss Carriers in StarCraft. Once "launched" the Locust Swarm will follow the Crypt Lord where he walks, heading out in an area around the Crypt Lord.
• 20 Locusts are released. 0.2 second delay between releasing each Locust.
• Up to 7 Locusts can target an enemy unit at the same time. Fraction of damage dealt by Locusts that will be returned and collected by Crypt Lord: 0.75.
• The Locust must collect 20 hit points before returning it to the Crypt Lord.
