Mann's Bestiary

Hecatoncheir (WC)

This giant stands at the center of the room. Its head almost scraps the ceiling, and jutting tusks sprout from its mouth. Its most notable feature are the dozens of arms sprouting from under its crude leather armor. It roars at you as it raises all of its fists in anger.

Int-Eaters

This strange creature has massive claws on its front legs and a long, tubular snout. A thin, flickering tongue reaches out towards you.

Special Abilities:

  • Claws: Str+d6
  • Int-Eating: A successful called shot to the ear allows the Int-Eater to lower the target's Smarts by one die step, or two with a raise. It gets a +4 to this attack, for a total of -2. This lowering lasts one hour. A character whose Smarts drops below d4 is unconscious until they heal. This simultaneously increases the Int-Eater's Strength and Toughness by one die.
