Tarantulas
The Tarantula is another nasty variant of the spider family. It is not bound
to a certain habitat, so it can be encountered in caves, forests and ruins
alike. Therefore it poses a threat everywhere but in the coldest or volcanic
areas. It is aggressive and dangerous and it is not choosier in its diet than
in its habitat. Anything is seen as prey and sometimes they even cannibalise
creatures of their own species. Its poisonous fangs are more than enough to
make these beasts a constant threat to the settlers but many extermination
campaigns have driven them back from the centres of civilisation. Still the
sight of a single Tarantula is usually enough for a town to hire some scouts
and mercenaries to examine the area more closely.
Tarantulas have 225 hitpoints. They are resistant against poison.
It takes 485 mana to summon or convince these creatures.
Tarantulas yield 360 experience points. They carry gold coins and sometimes other items with them. |
