Race  Arthropus

Arthropi have hard shells shells which serve as a form of armor. The shells can count as an obstacle for firing through, or total cover, attacker's choice. The shell's AD is the same as its wearer's, and it has 1 HP and 6 Toughness. It takes an Arthropus four rounds to regrow its shell if destroyed.

Arthropi are somewhat attuned with Green energies to the point that a predominance of other colors can destroy them. At the beginning of their turn, if they have more non-Green gems implanted than Green ones, they take 1d10-2 Disease damage.
