[QUOTE="iop, post: 4900815, member: 85009"] [b]Cave stomach[/b] Explorer beware! If you find yourself walking down a damp corridor smelling of vomit, you may be walking right into a cave stomach. The cave stomach is a distant relative of the black dragon that has uniquely adapted to the underground environment. Once a young cave stomach finds a suitable corridor, it starts to stretch out its tentaculous mouth until it completely blocks the corridor's entire width and height, and it starts waiting for unsuspecting prey, or for underground dwellers who use it as garbage disposal. On its back side, the cave stomach is protected by tough scales that can be as hard as stone. Once any prey has touched the tentacles a few times, it is thoroughly sprayed by digestive juices from glands protruding from the tentacles. The incapacitated prey is then reeled in by one or several tentacles for complete digestion. A cave stomach can be killed by either dealing severe enough damage to tentacles, or by cutting through the stomach. While the latter method usually involves wading through a pond of acid, it can reward the victor with weapons, armor, or gold that the cave stomach has been unable to digest yet. ** I think the cave stomach should be about level 3, though it may be possible to scale it up with higher acid damage and tougher tentacles.
