D&D General What would a Semanticore do?

[Charlaquin]

I also imagine they’d always be manticoresplaining.

 

[the Jester]

As long as nobody uses bad grammar, it's friendly, but the first person to trigger it is in trouble.

 

[Muh]

As a sidenote this really does sound like something from the Nobilis rpg.

It's a bit hard to use in d&d though I think. It would benefit from a lighted system with more leeway for weird rule interpretations.

 

[LordEntrails]

They would be easy to track, they would drop semicolons all over the place.

I was thinking the word was seismic-core, which I was thinking would be a cool monster.

 

[Chaltab]

I was thinking the word was seismic-core, which I was thinking would be a cool monster.

Sounds like a boss in a Metroid Prime game.

...hey one of those is coming out this year.

 

[Umbran]

The name is a pun, but I'm not sure what to do with it. Ideas?

Hm.
A creature that is nigh unkillable with normal physical damage, the sematicore is vulnerable to psychic damage and successful persuasion, deception, or intimidation checks that get across a clear, unambiguous meaning of hostile intent.
