Claw Mound

Claw Mound.jpg

The claw mound is a shambling mass of claw bones.

Claw mounds and scuttling claws survive on a diet of bones. They are not particularly smart, and can only speak sign languages.

Claw mounds have an essentially unlimited number of "hands", and its unarmed attacks deal 1d6+4 damage (Muscle included). For every wound it takes, a scuttling claw is flung 15 meters in a random direction. By moving onto the claw mound, the scuttling claw may merge with the mound to heal 1 of the mound's wounds. As a lesser action, the claw mound may inflict 1 wound on itself, and choose the direction to fling the created scuttling claw.

The claw mound's penalties for using additional weapons decrease to -1 per weapon.

Claw mounds cannot hear. They get -1 to Perception in bright light.

When they do, anything wounded by the attack is lit on fire. The claws gain a Basic Specialty. Both the claw mound and the scuttling claws become [ Orange ].
