These three-foot long millipedes stand a foot high on a myriad of legs. Their head is tapered like a widow's peak. Truly omnivorous, they feed on anything, fresh or rotten; plant, animal or fungus. Quite passive creatures they only attack in reprisal or if deprived of a meal. This has led to situations where they feed on sleeping or helpless adventurers. If light is brought within 30' of them, they emit a sobbing ululation audible up to 60' away for 1d2 rounds. There is a 25% chance this will attract a wandering monster within 2d6 rounds.

Creepy. The ululating sound just makes it worse! Nuce monster.
ReplyDeleteThanks - getting the right level of 'eew' can be a challenge. Plus interesting dungeon scavengers are always at a premium.
