Only someone with the knowledge check should get a roll. If you wanted to be really generous give him a DC 20 intelligence check to remember something he heard once, but no details ... i.e. a creature that "eats" metal perhaps.The following was an update on the Rust Monster from ...somewhere (maybe the official site); perhaps you could use it instead and maybe make it look different (couple of tentacles rather than antennae  )RUST MONSTER CR 3Medium AberrationInit +3; Senses darkvision 60 ft., scent; Listen +1, Spot +1 AC 18, touch 13, flat-footed 15hp 27 (5 HD)Fort +2, Ref +4, Will +5 Speed 40 ft.

Any metal weapons, armor, and shields carried by a creature struck are weakened by this effect. The bonus to AC provided by an armor or shield drops by 2, to a minimum of 0. Weapons suffer a –2 penalty on attacks and damage, with a maximum penalty of –6. Magic armor and weapons, and other magic items made of metal, must succeed on a DC 17 Reflex save or be dissolved. The save DC is Constitution-based and includes a +4 racial bonus.These penalties last for 10 minutes. A rust monster that spends 5 minutes devouring a metal object (whether magical or mundane) transforms it into rust, destroying it permanently.A metal weapon that deals damage to a rust monster also suffers this warping and corroding effect. Wooden, stone, and other nonmetallic weapons are unaffected.</blockquote>
