  • Corpse Armor Crawler Group, Large, Devious, Cautious, Terrifying
    Raptor-like forelegs (d6+2 damage 1 piercing) 14 HP 2 armor
    Forceful
    Special Qualities: Expose corpse armor for defense, large insect

    Corpse armor crawlers would resemble common garden aphids- if they weren't covered in the still living bodies of their prey. These fearsome creatures grab their prey with their forelegs, clawed like a bird of prey, and inject a paralyzing poison into the captured creature. The bodies appear so lifeless as to usually be thought as corpses, as the beast places it on its carapace. The crawler will defend itself by exposing one of the corpses to attacks. Corpse armor crawlers have no compunction against scavenging, either. If they encounter a dead or dying creature, they'll store it on their carapace for defense and food. If one comes across a battlefield, their armor can look especially horrific. These crawlers live in darker areas, in tunnels or dark parts of the forest. They will often venture out into brighter areas to hunt or scavenge, but return to the dark to feed and nest. Instinct: To protect itself

    • Armor itself with a corpse
    • Inject poison into pinched prey
    • Grab its prey with raptor-like forelegs

  • Fetid Kraken Solitary, Huge, Cautious, Terrifying
    Hooked tentacles (d10+7 damage 1 piercing) 28 HP 4 armor
    Reach, Forceful, Near
    Special Qualities: decaying flesh

    Deep beneath the cities, in the places where sewage and filth collects lives what has been known to be called a kraken. It is, of course, not a true kraken of the ocean depths, but certainly a similar beast. Its life is a sour one, living among the garbage. It consumes what it can from the sewage, and uses the rest for it to hide beneath. It is quick to recognize anything living arriving near its den, for the taste of the living is much sweeter than anything flushed into the sewers. It seems unlikely that such a beast truly lives- perhaps allowed to continue through some necromancy or other magical means. Instinct: Draw into the filth

    • Wrap in decaying tentacles
    • Pull under a sea of filth
    • Bat away with tentacles

More devious instructions include taking the invader deeper into the dungeon- to a more dangerous area -or simply separating a group from each other. Instinct: Separate

    • Appear from a dungeon wall without warning
    • Teleport a captured foe to an entrance or another part of the dungeon
