Anti-Magic Krarshtkid

First Impressions

A black Krarshtkid...

Referee Only

If things are going badly it will use its one-use Rune spell Sweat Acid, which will give it a black sheen from the level 14 acid.

Character Traits

Generally bad tempered... even on a good day.

Craves the taste of alcohol. If any characters carry any, it will home in on them, slobbering.

Special Abilities

• Chaos Feature: an effect akin to Neutralise Magic, intensity 1 on touch. That is, if PC has spell Bladesharp-3 on his sword, there is a 40% chance of the spell dissipating as the sword touches the Krarshtkid. This effect occurs before the Bladesharp has a chance to damage the critter... it also affects its own Protection 3 spell the first time it casts it... and if the creature bites you and you have e.g. Countermagic, Shield, Enhanced CON up, all are simultaneously "attacked" by the effect. This "attack" is accompanied by a black flickering as the negative energy tries to neutralise any spells it contacts.
• Krarshtkids can spring prodigious distances in the open.
• Sense Law skill is 30%.
