Tree Octopus

Description: These monsters come in a variety of sizes and color. The smaller ones are relatively harmless unless they are disturbed in some way. Having a little sap covered octopus stuck to one’s face is annoying and quite disgusting. They mostly appear during the day.

The larger ones sleep in the canopy of trees during the day and come out to hunt at night. They will always be found stuck to a tree and rarely go to ground except to feed on freshly killed game. Tree Octopi of all sizes supplement their diets with tree sap.
Ferocity: 3               Size: Large
Movement: 10 land, 16 climbing   Armor: 3.  HP: 16 (Regenerate 1d8 HP every Shift outside of combat.)
MONSTER ATTACKS
D8 Attacks:

1: Full Tentacle Grab! One opponent within 6 meters is grabbed the attack inflicts D10 bludgeoning damage and an additional D10 whenever it is the victim’s turn. The victim cannot move or perform actions that require movement, except trying to break free, which requires a STR roll with a bane. Others can help.

2-3: Tentacle Grab: The creature wraps a tentacle around the leg of an enemy within 6 meters and pulls them up the tree. The victim cannot move or perform actions that require movement. Attempts to break free require a STR roll with a bane. The victim is dropped at the beginning of the octopus’ next turn taking fall damage accordingly.

4: Barf Sap: The Tree Octopus expels the contents of its stomach to make itself lighter for the attack. All creatures within 4 meters must Evade or be covered in foul smelling sap causing a Bane on any AGI based skills until it can be scrubbed off. Scrubbing sap off weapons, armor, and clothing takes an uninterrupted Stretch action.

5: D.F.A: The octopus drops down out of the tree onto one hapless victim within 6 meters. Evade places the character on the edge of the octopus. Otherwise, the victim takes 2d10 damage and is knocked prone. Additionally, the octopus’ beak inflicts another 1d8 damage. Anyone knocked down by this attack may attempt a STR check on their next turn with a bane to try to crawl free. Others can help.

6-7: Tentacle Slap: inflicts 1d10 damage on all creatures within 4 meters. Evade as normal. Writhing tentacles flail about from around the tree striking anything and everything possible.

8: Inky Mist: The octopus spews a black mist that rains down in the faces of all within 6 meters. Victims must make an Evade roll to shield their eyes in time. The ink causes temporary blindness and the victim is Dazed. If already Dazed, roll another condition. It takes a Stretch rest to fully wash the ink off.
