The Tomb Terror, GURPS edition

This is a creature from Telluria, the world of the Successor States of Rega.
The tomb terror is a horrific form of undead, created by a ritual to dark gods. A person is entombed alive, and imbued with the nature of an earth elemental, even as they asphyxiate and transition into undeath. They are bound forever to a single tomb, to guard it from any who would enter. They hate all living things for the injustice done to them. They move through earth and stone as if it were air, and turn their victims to stone as well, leaving them embedded in the walls until they, too, become tomb terrors.
