CRITTERSWEMICK A RACE OF LION LIKE CENTAURS WHO ARE ALL SHAMANICALLY AWAKENED, BUT ONLY TO A MINOR LEVEL. NONE OF THEIR 'SPELLS' CAN BE ABOVE FORCE3, NOR CAN THEY INITIATE. THE ONLY TOTEMS THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO FOLLOW ARE THOSE OF CATS. RACIAL MODIFIERS: STRENGTH +2, QUICKNESS +1, BODY +3, INTELLIGENCE -2, WILLPOWER -1 CHARISMA -1. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF CULTURAL VARIETIES SUCH AS LION, PUMA, CHEETAH AND LEOPARD. NOTES: THEIR UNARMED COMBAT ATTACKS DO PHYSICAL DAMAGE AT STRENGTH +1, THEY HAVE A REACH OF +1. THEY ONLY LOCATIONS WHERE NORMAL WILD CATS LIVE, BUT THEY ABHOR TOWNS AND CITIES, TRAVELING THROUGHOUT THE LANDS.
THESE LION SIZED CRITTERS ARE CHARECTERISED BY THEIR SIX LEGS AND DUAL NATURE. HOWEVER THEY DO NOT EAT MEAT, DESPITE THE SIZE OF THIER CANINE TEETH. THEY ARE OFTEN FOUND IN THE SAME AREA AS THE WEMICKS BUT THEY FOR SOME REASON ARE HOSTILE TO THE WEMICK TRIBES AND ATTACK ON SITE AND OTHER CAT BASED CREATURES. EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE IF A RUNNER HAS TAILORED PHEROMONES THE FERRO LIONS WILL BE FRIENDLY TO THEM. SHOULD THE RUNNER HAVE ANY CAT FEATURES SUCH AS EYES, TAILS OR SOME TIMES CLAWS THEN THEY WILL REACT HOSTILY. ALSO OF NOTE IS THE SPECIAL ATTACK THEY HAVE. IF THEY ARE ATTACKED BY A MANA SPELL THEY AUTOMATICALLY SOAK THE DAMMAGE AND MAY SPIT THE SPELL BACK AT THE CASTER OR USE IT TO DIGEST NON MAGICAL FOOD.
THIS TYPE OF CRITTER IS ALWAYS FOUND IN PACKS OF 20+ IN BAT COLONIES OR WITH GHOULS, ZOMBIES OR SPITTING GHULS. THE LOOK LIKE A GREY LARGE BAT, BUT HAVE TALON EDGED WING TIPS AND FORKED TONGUES. THEY ATTACK ONLY IN SWARMS OF 5.
SWARM STATS
