ZLUBS by Bohemond
Type, Characteristics : Plants - Zlubs
Hybrid, half lizard, half plant.
Breeding: propagation by cuttings, seeds
Carnivorous (needs high quality proteins)
As tall as a man.
Habitat:
Damp forests
Individuals live at a good distance from one another (Zlubs can get so hungry they can kill each other), but a colony can grow in some forest places, creating twisted and dangerous mazes; a smart traveller can still walk though the place, out of range of these dreadful jaws, if he is small enough...
Attitude:
Utterly stupid and aggressive: every living thing is a source of proteins, and this is it!
Weapons:
Their jaws
Acid saliva (hopefully they never learnt to spit)
Their tendrils, with claw extensions
Assets:
Ferocious, full of energy (even if a Zlub has only one tendril left, it keeps on attacking, which is a proof of ots stupidity since it has no more mouth to eat its prey...)
Weaknesses :
Cannot move: Zlubs have roots
Stupid: when you have seen one Zlub, you have seen them all; the trick is to survive the first encounter.
By-products :
Tendrils can make good wips
Saliva: used on acid arrows
Wood: bows and other items (there is also a non-carnivorous Zlub species that gives wood of lesser quality) Bark: thick and hard, can be used to make light armour, especially to protect sensitive organs.
Vulnerable to :
Cutting weapons (with a long handle if possible) and fire spells.
dont you think they could have tried harder on the name? ohwell.
