They are closely related to the Fireworms of Prag, but unlike the fireworms, boltworms generate electricity. Boltworms tend to be solitary creatures, only gathering ever 10 years to engage in courtship rituals in which they fill the skies with released bolts of sheet lightning. Personality/Motivation: Normal animal motivations. Powers/Tactics: A boltworm can chose from two attack forms: biting or shocking. As the boltworm builds up a great deal of static electricity when traveling about the desert it can release this energy to either stun of kill its target. Appearance: A boltworm is a snakelike creature, ranging in length from 6 to 40 feet long and roughly 1-3 feet through the middle. They are covered with segmented plates armor and are bright blue and orange in color. Designer's Notes: The boltworm of Bnazic is a creature of the Cthulhu/Dreamlands Mythos of H.P. Lovecraft. This design was based upon the boltworm presented in the 5th Edition of The Complete Dreamlands. Boltworms can range in size from Small to Huge.

They are nocturnal creatures, coming out only at night. Normally peaceful animals, the worms will gather into great swarms every 50 years or so, burning the surrounding area before dying off and vanishing for a good 10 years. Personality/Motivation: Normal animal motivations. Powers/Tactics: A fireworm normally attacks by biting, although if angered or endangered it can burst into flames, igniting anything flammable it comes in contact with. Appearance: A fireworm is a snakelike creature, ranging in length from 6 to 40 feet long and roughly 1-3 feet through the middle. They are covered with segmented plates armor and are bright blue and orange in color. Designer's Notes: The fireworm of Prag is a creature of the Cthulhu/Dreamlands Mythos of H.P. Lovecraft. This design was based upon the fireworm presented in the 5th Edition of The Complete Dreamlands. Fireworms can range in size from Small to Huge.

They once controlled the entire plateau, until forced back into the southern valleys after years of warfare with the almost-human Men of Leng. Spinning huge webs, some of which reach from mountain top to mountain top, they feed on shantanks, vultures, yaks, and anything that makes the fatal mistake of blundering into their webs. Personality/Motivation: Highly intelligent, the spiders of Leng tend to be solitary creatures, and will prey on their own kind if the situation warrants. They tend to look on all other beings as a source of food, and can only be dealt with from a position of strength. Powers/Tactics: A Leng spider normally attacks with a highly venomous bite, wrapping up any prey with its webbing to be fed on at its leisure. The spider may also hurl a mass of webbing, trapping a target long enough to be either wrapped in stronger bonds or bitten to death. It is possible for a Leng spider to know certain spells of Dreamlands magic, usually ones dealing with finding and subduing prey. Appearance: A small Leng spider is the size of a Shetland pony. A large one can mass nearly 6000 kg. They have bloated purple bodies, with black legs and fangs. Designer's Notes: Leng spiders are creatures of the Cthulhu/Dreamlands Mythos of H.P. Lovecraft. This design was based upon the Leng spider presented in the 5th Edition of Call Of Cthulhu and The Complete Dreamlands. Leng spiders can range in size from Human sized (at birth) to Huge (or even lager!).

AlHazred Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Here you go. I can take no credit for these; I always turn all of Susano's stuff that I come across into Hero Designer files. It's all so good... Note: Mike, let me know if you want me to take the files off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
