STRATHARIAN WAR MOTH

2 (6)

Health: 6
Damage Inflicted: 2
Movement: Long while flying; immediate while on the ground
Environment: Any
Motive: Hungers for battle
Interaction: The war moths think only in terms of battle

Use: Stratharian war moths make for a dangerous encounter, usually in the wild. However, a wandering pack could come upon a village and terrorize it, keeping people trapped in their homes until help arrive, perhaps in the form of traveling PCs
Combat: Stratharian war moths can swoop in to attack with a bite, but their major offensive power is the flesh-withering light from their wings.
  • The light manifests as a short-range cone of energy that inflicts 4 points of damage to living creatures.
  • Creating this light requires an action, and a moth can use the ability once every other round.
  • If a moth is reduced to 3 healthor less, it flies away.
  • A Stratharian war moth is immune to mind-influencing effects.
  • Description:
    Bred for battle in a prior world, these creatures are gigantic moths with pale yellow wings and bodies the color of skulls. Most have a wingspan of at least 5 feet (1.5 m). When they open their wings wide, they shed a brilliance that withers flesh without harming nonliving objects.
