Xorn Monstrosity
The Xorn live deep underground, where
the earth's crust gives way to the hidden
recesses of the unknown world below our own.
They are typically known for their exclusive
appetite for rocks, but some undergo a peculiar
deviation in behavior. Unlike their mundane
counterparts, Xorn Monstrosities exhibit an
uncharacteristic openness to alternative diets,
particularly when the allure of their next meal
manifests in delectable layers of metal.
Xorn Monstrosities usually stay deep underground, but every
now and then, some of them can be found in deep caves or
dungeons. They do not have eyes but have excellent hearing.
They are covered with hard spikes that can be very dangerous.
Their bodies are designed to destroy rocks so no armor can
withstand their strength.
Metallic Body. Xorn Monstrosities have the uncanny ability
to temporarily assimilate properties of the metallic layers they
consume. This mimicry grants them enhanced resilience against
attacks and may imbue their strikes with a metallic, corrosive
edge.
Spiked Body. Being covered by spikes, they can use any part of
their body to attack with an element of surprise, making them
formidable ambush predators.
Xorn Monstrosities are very aggressive creatures, but they are
also solitary. Only in the depths of the earth one can find them
in groups. Do not underestimate them, however—with almost
perfect hearing, they usually know about your presence long
before you can realize that they are nearby.
