Iron Doctor

Iron Doctors (sometimes called "Iron Vampires" or "Glingle Vampires") are hostile metallic magical constructs from the Kingdom of Glingle. They appear humanoid in nature, with metal bodies, limbs, and heads. They appear to be wearing some form of surgical mask, and their entire left hand is replaced with a large syringe containing green liquid.

Iron Doctors only have one eye, which sits lopsided on their heads, but they do not appear to have any form of impairment to their depth perception because of it.

Iron Doctors cannot speak, and would likely have no interest in communicating with people anyway. There is debate as to if Iron Doctors are even sentient.

Upon attacking a victim, Iron Doctors will attempt to inject the green liquid in their syringes into their victims. Upon injecting their victims, Iron Doctors do not attempt to attack further, and will most likely flee.

An injected individual will not notice any symptoms at first, but slowly (over the course of months) the victim will experience their body becoming mechanical (usually from the inside out) as they become an Iron Doctor themselves. Once the conversion is complete, all semblance of who the person is is usually lost, and they will begin to hunt in the same way as other Iron Doctors.
