"A great stillness pervades the room. It is the stillness of death; the silence of a tomb. Then, suddenly, the stillness is broken as the clay warlord jerkily raises an arm toward his generals. Then, the entire army takes a lurching step forward, shattering the silence with the tramp of doom." If the warlord is killed (same stats), the entire army loses anima,becoming simply a set of clay statues.(Monster adapted from the classic DCC Adventure "The Portal under the Stars" by Joseph Goodman) Instinct: Obey the Clay Warlord and his Generals!

Their features are hard to discern because of their translucency, but they are perfect replicas of the eons-old proto-human warrior prisoners who were transformed to create them. They are attracted to light and shuffle toward torches and lanterns. They do not attack, but their approach may seem menacing, and they will defend themselves.

The Eloi are a happy people, who speak a simple language and are mainly interested in playfulness. They often play with flowers and other amusing items. Physically, they are shorter than humans, have blond hair, smooth skin, and are weaker than modern humans. They only eat fruit which they are frugiverous. Additionally, they seem to have some form of low grade telepathy.The Eloi live a banal life of ease on the surface of the earth, while the Morlocks live underground, tending machinery and providing food, clothing, and inventory for the Eloi. The narration suggests that the separation of species may have been the result of a widening split between different social classes. Having solved all problems that required strength, intelligence, or virtue, the Eloi have slowly become dissolute and naive: they are described as smaller than modern humans (halflings), with shoulder-length curly hair, pointed chins, large eyes, small ears, small mouths with bright red thin lips, and sub-human intelligence. They do not perform much work, except to feed, play, and mate; and when Eloi girl Weena falls into a river, none of the other Eloi helps her (she is rescued instead by the Time Traveler). Periodically, the Morlocks capture individual Eloi for food; and because this typically happens on moonless nights, the Eloi are terrified of darkness. Instinct: Ignores trouble

• Plays, eats, mates
• Afraid of the Dark
• Low grade telepathy
• Morlock cattle
