Serpent Spawns
The hideous Serpent Spawn is rumoured to be the creation of some ancient
serpent god once worshipped by the lizardmen of Tiquanda. In ancient
times, this creature, chosen by the gods, was a vital part of the lizard
culture and the centre of numerous gruesome rituals. With the downfall
of the lizard civilisation, the Serpent Spawn became more and more
uncontrollable, and finally started to become a threat to the lizards
themselves. As if their minds had been darkened by a madness that
mirrored the turmoil in the lizard society, they made no difference
between friend or foe and their lethal wrath struck both. By making the
most holy places of the lizards inaccessible, they sealed the fate of
the lizard civilisation during the apes' revolt.
It is rumoured there are still species of the Serpent Spawn around.
Still guarding the sacred places with eternal vigilance, they are
waiting for their creator to rise again and to lead them once more to
reign the jungle of Tiquanda on the god's behalf. Being servants of the
serpent god, they are blessed with magic abilities and their serpent
heritage grants them enormous physical strength and constitution.
Serpent Spawns have 3000 hitpoints. They are resistant against poison and cannot be paralyzed.
These creatures can neither be summoned nor convinced.
In addition, they are able to sense invisible creatures.
Serpent Spawns yield 6000 experience points. They carry gold coins, green mushrooms, and sometimes other items with them. |
