The Roleplaying Game of Heroic Adventure in the - Mazes ...

Poison
The creature has a vicious poisonous sting or pair of
fangs coated with a venom that either kills the victim
or causes paralysis (depending on the creature).
A creature with this special ability may only make
one poison attack in a single battle round, instead of
one of its regular melee attacks.
This poison attack is resolved like a regular melee
attack and requires a successful Melee attack roll.
If the attack is successful, it does normal damage
and the victim must immediately make a Physical
Vigor saving roll against a target number of 15. If
this roll fails, the victim is affected by the venom.
Multiple Heads
The classic three-headed Chimera
Each head beyond the first adds one opponent to
the creature’s maximum number of opponents it can
attack during the same round.
Each extra head adds +1 to its Initiative and its
Detection modifier.
Thus, a seven-headed gigantic hydra will be able to
attack up to ten different man-sized opponents
during the same battle round: four for its gigantic
size and one more for each extra head. Such a
heptaphalous creature would also get an Initiative
and Detection bonus of +6.
Natural Armor
This upgraded version of Tough Skin (see below)
gives +4 to Defense Class.
Petrification
The creature’s gaze can turn its victims to stone.
To use this terrifying power, the creature must make
eye-to-eye contact with its victim within a maximum
range equal to 20 times its Mystique in feet.
This venom may cause one of the following effects:
instant death, death (in 1d6 battle rounds) or
paralysis (totally unable to move, act, speak - but
not to use magic) for the next 1d6 minutes.
Psychic Powers
The creature has mental powers similar to Sorcery
spells (see Players Manual). It can use the full
repertoire of Sorcery powers with a Psychic Gift
equal to the sum of its Cunning and its Mystique.
The being’s Mystic Strength is equal to (12 + its
Psychic Gift) and its Power points total is equal to 4
times its Psychic Gift bonus.
Thus, a Crafty (+3) and Eldritch (+2) creature with
Psychic Powers will have a Psychic Gift bonus of 5,
a Mystic Strength of 17 and 20 Power points.
Regeneration
At the end of each round, the creature automatically
regains a number of Hits which varies according to
its Size: Medium = 1, Large = 2, Gigantic = 3. This
power cannot bring the creature’s current Hits Total
above its starting maximum and ceases to function
when the creature’s Hits are reduced to zero. Tiny
and Small creatures cannot have this ability.
This special attack counts as one of the creature’s
regular attacks but requires no die roll. It takes
effect during the missile phase of the battle round,
according to the creature’s regular Initiative score.
The only way to avoid this gaze is to make a
successful Danger Evasion roll (with a +2 bonus if
using a shield). This Danger Evasion roll is made
against a target number of 15.
If this roll is failed, the victim is still entitled to a
Mystic Fortitude roll against a target number of 20 to
avoid being turned to stone… permanently. Only
Divine Intervention can restore these statues to life.
