- Resistant to bludgeoning
- Viscid shell
What at first looks like an innocent pile of rocks on the shore turns out to be the shell of a bear-like creature brandishing two giant crabclaws at the end of its powerful arms.
These dangerous monstrosities can turn seemingly harmless beaches and shallows into treacherous stretches of feeding grounds. Only the occasional scattered bones or stuck weapgive any clue as to the true nature of these creatures.
Crafted Homes.
Driven by the scarcity of shells large enough to accommodate their size, bearmit crabs have adapted by crafting their own shells, using rocks glued together with sticky propolis. More commonly known as bee glue, propolis is harvested by bearmit crabs from the hives they find near the coastline.
Viscid Shells.
Many adventurers get a nasty surprise when they try to stab or slash at the shell. Intuitively, the attackers aim for the crevices between the rocks, only to find their weapons hopelessly stuck fast in the shell’s binding agent. To further complicate matters, bashing on the shell with blunter weapons doesn’t prove particularly effective. Often, weapons of past victims are compelling lures, for few can resist a seemingly unattended sword sticking out of a pile of rocks.
One such bearmit was apparantly preying on the Snapper population of the local farmers at Cratenga. The party tried to lure it into a trap, but it got wary and went back into the darkness.
