The estarabat is a 5' long beetle with rocky carapace and brilliant-green compound eyes.  It appears after a meteor shower and is sometimes found in craters from fallen stars.  When first encountered, it emits a blazing red light that combusts all non-magical ranged weapons and does 10 points of fire damage to anything in melee.  This lasts for 4 turns or until the estarabat is slain.  Estarabat are immune to their heat auras but not to normal fire or other heat-based attacks.  The estarabat is seen as unlucky and the falling stars that bring them as heralds of misfortune.
