    Special Qualities: A living tangle of cords, Immune to mundane damage

    "He stopped as he heard a cascading hissing noise. Jerking his head around, over the wall at the end of the hallway behind them, he saw what looked like a car-sized tangled mess of CAT-5 cables drag itself down the wall, and then down the hall. It didn't speed up, it didn't acknowledge them at all, but he had a sinking feeling in his gut, that this thing was a predator, and they were its chosen prey today." (The Daily Grind by argusthecat) Instinct: To feed

    • Strangle then engulf

  • Canis Pencilus Solitary, Devious, Fast
    Bite (d8+2 damage 1 piercing) 16 HP 1 armor
    Close
    Special Qualities: Close attackers take +2 damage, Fire Damage Weakness

    It looked like a wolf, at least the shape of it did. The series of pencils the made up its body gave it the appearance of a horrible wicker statue created by someone who had heard of wolves and porcupines but had mixed up which was which during the process. As it walked a semicircle around them, it let out a growl that sounded like the splintering of wood. Instinct: To hunt

    • Chases down prey
    • A sharp, spiked carapace punishes attackers

      Scratch (1d2-1 damage) 1 HP 0 armor
      Hand
      Special Qualities: Can analyze the composition of any object given enough time, can scale vertical surfaces

      "They didn't seem to have eyes, and their screens were all on and glowing in the fairly dark room. Dozens of copper pins served as their legs, and their bodies seemed to bend and flex in ways that a normal commercial phone would snap from." (The Daily Grind by argusthecat) Instinct: To analyze

      • Object Analysis: Given enough time relative to the size and complexity of the object, the creature can present the exact chemical and magical makeup of an object

      Bite (d10 damage) 20 HP 2 armor
      Close
      Special Qualities: Indistinguishable from a normal PC when camouflaged

      "The beast seemed to unfold under the desk, a slithering base of power strips and loose wires bursting out from under it and propelling it forward as it lurched toward its attacker.... the front of the machine split open into four segments, splitting outward like some kind of high tech flower, revealing several rows of teeth made up of what looked like jagged and broken circuit board." (The Daily Grind by argusthecat) Instinct: To feed

      • Waits patiently for someone to disturb it, then strikes
      • It camouflages itself as a normal PC

    • Strider Solitary, Tiny, Stealthy
      A painful yet grazing bite (1 damage) 2 HP 0 armor
      Hand
      Special Qualities: Wall Walker, Paperclip Web Spinner

      It was a black, heavy stapler. He could tell just by looking at it that it was one of those solid bricks that they don't seem to make anymore, but that keep showing up in offices. As for how it was actually moving, that was more obvious. Ten to twenty "legs", made of what looked like ballpoint pens. The entire time it matched his gaze with its single, catlike, yellow eye. Paraphrased from "The Daily Grind" by argusthecat Instinct: To feed

      • Ambushes weakened prey
      • They are attracted to sound and swarm prey in large packs

    • Strider Swarm Horde, Tiny
      A painful yet grazing bite (6d2 damage) 14 HP 0 armor
      Hand
      Special Qualities: Wall Walker, Paperclip Web Spinner

      "A series of skittering noises answered the yell. Like a thousand dry ballpoint pens being scritched across paper, digging for ink that had long since run out. A waterfall of noise and motion. It took him a second to realize what he'd just done, and then the first (strider) crested the cubicle wall." (The Daily Grind by argusthecat) Instinct: To feed

      • SWARM
      • They are attracted to sound and swarm prey in large packs
