Skorpoon
CR 5 CE Magical Beast<\/strong>
This awful beast appears as a garishly colored baboon the size of a man. Its fur is green, its eyes red, and the skin on its face and hindquarters is a livid purple. Its tail is that of a scorpion, dripping venom.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skorpoons are the product of a mad mage\u2019s attempt to create super soldiers. Although the creatures proved to be powerful, they were also difficult to control and escaped to fulfill their own violent desires. Skorpoons live in massive clans in the savanna, where they hunt anything that enters their territory for the sheer thrill of the chase. Their venom is a paralytic, and their territories are often littered with battered and Dexterity drained victims left alive to be tortured and eaten later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A skorpoon is not terribly intelligent, but they are flexible and dangerous foes nonetheless. A skorpoon\u2019s mind is a catalog of programmed fighting techniques, and they can call up feats in an instant in order to suit their tactical needs. Although many skorpoons prefer to fight with tooth and claw, they are inherently proficient with most weapons. Few skorpoons have the patience for maintaining or creating their own weapons, so such tools often end up broken or worn with time. Magical weapons are highly prized trophies, and leadership in skorpoon troops or clans often devolves to the individual with the best stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An average skorpoon stands about six feet tall on its hind legs, but they typically travel on all fours unless showing off a prized armament. They have an aversion to open water, and are terrible swimmers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
