  • Plethods Horde, Small, Construct
    Heavy teeth and claws (d6 damage) 3 HP 0 armor
    Close
    Special Qualities: Amphibious, Cannot eat and will starve to death within a fortnight of creation

    A common form of alchemically created beast, plethods are created to enact simple destructive violence on a target. Resembling dog-sized salamanders with muddy grey skin, they are almost always created en masse, intending to overwhelm their target by sheer numbers. They can move across land and through water and will seek their quarry unceasingly, attacking without fear and seeking to mangle the poor souls they were sent after beyond recognition. As a fail-safe against them running wild, plethods have sealed off digestive systems, created with their stomachs full of food, and when the nutrients have run out they simply starve to death, leaving only a particularly disgusting corpse to clean up. Instinct: Destroy the target given by it's creator
