  • Mak'to Insect-Thing Solitary, Devious, Intelligent
    Scythe-like claws (d8+2 damage) 12 HP 3 armor
    Close
    Special Qualities: Flight

    A bizarre insectoid creature combining the features of a mosquito and a praying mantis. The Mak'to are intelligent, resourceful, and crafty, though thankfully they are not social creatures. Mak'to use their wings to ambush targets from above or behind, with an intent to feed or reproduce. The insect-thing's method of reproduction is bizarre and terrifying: the creature's claws carry a strange disease which slowly transforms its victims into more Mak'to if left untreated. Mak'to possess one more bizarre capability: their strange eyes are capable of emitting a bright, yellow beam which addles the mind of those it strikes, stunning them. Instinct: to feed, to reproduce

    • Sucks the blood of a helpless target
    • Infects a target it has wounded with a strange disease
    • Emits a stunning ray

  • The Thing in the Well Solitary, Large, Stealthy
    Dark Tentacles (w[2d12] damage) 16 HP 1 armor
    Reach, Near

    "Good morning," the Thing in the Well calls, "And how are we doing this morning Mrs. Westmen?" -- "Just wonderfully. How have you been keeping, Thing?" -- "Fine, fine. A little peckish, a bit in the mood for, you know, a nibble, a bite to eat. But don't worry yourself, perfectly fine." -- "It's quite alright Thing, I was just thinking I should bring by some lunch. How does a ham sound?" -- "You are too kind Mrs. Westmen, just too kind..." -- The Thing in the Well has lived in the village for longer than anyone can remember. It is traditional to fix regular meals for the Thing, and to present it with a sheep or pig on special occasions. Years ago a boy went down the well on a dare. He never returned. The subject has not been broached in the presence of the Thing. Instinct: To devour

    • Politely collect tribute

  • Gray Magus Solitary, Magical, Intelligent, Hoarder
    Bolts of mage-fire (d10 damage) 16 HP 0 armor
    Close, Ignores Armor, Near
    Special Qualities: Resists necromancy, Half-Lich

    Also known as a Half-Lich, a Gray Magus is a force of arcane power that teeters on the edge of death. Gray Magi are mortals that have found away to subsist on pure arcane energy alone: they do not need to eat or sleep. They continue to age in appearance, but their physical capabilities do not decline over time. Gray Magi are not truly immortal, however, and many eventually complete the dark rituals required to achieve true undeath. Instinct: seek arcane power, feed on magical energy

    • weave an eldrtich spell to hinder or controll
    • absorbs the arcane energy of a spell cast against it
    • drains a magical item of it's power
