The ravenous ghoul is a creature in Might & Magic: Heroes VI. It is a Core creature of the Necropolis faction, and it is the upgraded version of the ghoul.

Ravenous Ghouls have been trained to fight by their masters. They are even more feral and vicious than their "wild" relatives. When brought to battle by the Undead Lords of the Seven Cities, they are often chained together like war dogs.OffBck

"This meat is as tough as ghoul’s skin." A famous line from a Naga comic play, recounting the story of a resourceful swordsmith’s wife who during a famine feeds her husband leather armor for dinner, illustrates the principle characteristic of the ghoul. Both its flesh and skin are hardenened and tough and serve it as a natural armor that is extremely resistant to all forms of physical attack.

“Unleash the ravenous ghoul, his hunger will lead us to the thief.” The guardian of treasure in Nar Heresh, Baron Deathlock, kept ravenous ghouls near the sect’s greatest treasures as watchdogs. Their heightened senses, driven by an insatiable hunger for living flesh, discouraged not only thieves, but rats and curious crows. When they catch the scent of a living creature they are possessed by the odor and move visibly faster, gaining both strength and a raging fury in preparation of a feast.
Increases Damage by 30% and Movement by 2 when attacking living targets.OffBck
