Carniphilas
This creature is neither a plant nor a beast, it is rather a mixture of
both and another oddity that the Tiquandan jungle holds in store for
explorers and settlers. Although plant-like in its looks and structure, it
seems to be able to control its movements. It is carnivorous by nature and
follows almost mindlessly its greedy appetite. Its poisonous attacks
decelerate its victims and so the slow giant plant can catch up and attack
with its thorny tentacles and a maw-like blossom. The dead bodies of their
victims do not only serve as food but also as fertiliser for the plants
seeds. Therefore it is advised to burn bodies who died by an attack of a
Carniphila.
Carniphilas have 255 hitpoints. They are resistant against poison.
These creatures can neither be summoned nor convinced.
In addition, they are able to sense invisible creatures.
Carniphilas yield 450 experience points. They carry gold coins, ham, meat, and sometimes other items with them. |
