Mummies are enemies initially found only in ancient Tombs and rarely in caves. When looting a tomb, there is a 60% chance it will trigger an attack.
Once defeated, each corpse can be looted as a valuable mummy item.
But looter beware: A mummy in inventory has a chance to reanimate and attack as an enemy when the player is resting in the open at low sanity. If you have multiple mummies, chances are that the others will join it. (This event is preventable if the mummy is stashed at a mission or on the ship; it also doesn't happen when playing at the Tourist Trip difficulty level).
Mummies are very tough opponents that roll three combat dice each, allowing them to potentially deal a lot of damage. However, each of their dice has a 50% chance of missing completely.
