  • Pelgrane Solitary, Huge
    Claws (d10+3 damage) 20 HP 1 armor
    Reach
    Special Qualities: Flight

    Pelgranes are a giant, flying, sentient and aggressive reptile hunting race. Think of a roc sized flying dinosaur that would like to invite you over for dinner. Displaying crested, polished heads--complete with beak and fangs--they can make for a fatal encounter to air-borne travelers. Pelgranes failing to achieve surprise will often converse with their intended prey before attacking them. They enjoy making rude jokes about prey they intend to devour. Instinct: Swoops

    • Deodand Solitary, Stealthy, Intelligent, Hoarder, Construct
      Strangles silently (d10 damage 1 piercing) 12 HP 0 armor
      Close, Near
      Special Qualities: Hides in shadows

      Deodands are intelligent, man-eating humanoids rumored to be borne of a sorcerous experiment. Deodands appear as handsome, muscular men with dull charcoal-black skin, long sharp fangs, and slitted golden or white eyes. The typical deodand prefers to wear a leather harness with bits of velvet or other rich clothes attached. A Deodand prefers to hunt with stealth and strangle its prey quietly. Though vicious and unremitting in his desire to eat other humanoids, the deodand is also cowardly. If obviously overpowered or reduced in hit points it will beg and plead for his life, often offering to guide a party. Adventurers should remain vigilant however if they take the creature up on any offer, as a deodand is not to be trusted. Instinct: Devours

      Reach, Near
      Special Qualities: Ensorceled, Unnatural Movement

      Once a peaceful creature of the woods, the animal that you see before you has a dark and sinister air about them. It moves in a manner most unnatural. Its legs and head twisted. Its muscles jerking back and forth against its own will, as if coerced by some demented puppet master. As it moves towards you, it emits a blood curdling holler. A noise no creature of divine creation would utter. A sound of pure anguish that chills you to your very bones. Instinct: Obey
