[B]Reducer (vermin):[/B] Reducers are scavengers that act constantly on all available food, devouring even the remains left by other scavengers. Pack +4 [B] Siren (venus fly-trap):[/B] Sirens create a lure to attract prey. Usually, this lure will be specific to the species the siren preys on, but some rare lures are universal. Sirens have Deception. Pack –4 [B]Trapper (spider):[/B] An animal which allows its prey to enter a trap. Generally, any creature surprised by a trapper is caught in its trap. Pack –2. [/INDENT] [h=2]Creature Sizes and Characteristics[/h] For each creature, roll 2d6 for its Size and apply any Dice Modifiers from its Terrain or Movement category. The creature’s Size determines its Weight, Strength, Dexterity and Endurance – for example, a roll of 7 means that the creature has a Strength of 3d6, an Dexterity of 3d6 and an Endurance of 3d6. Roll 2d6 separately for the animal’s Weapons and Armour. Add a +8 DM when rolling for weapons if the animal is a Carnivore, and a +4 if it is an Omnivore; subtract a –6 DM if the animal is a Herbivore. Scavengers automatically have Teeth in addition to any other weapons. If a number is present after the Weapons type, then add that number to the number of damage dice the creature rolls.
