Special Abilities
Chilling Bite: The bite of an ice spider chills its
victim. The target will take a -1 penalty to attack, damage, initiative, skill
use and movement until the end of hit next action.
Ice Armor: Ice spiders routinely cover themselves in
a thin, but strong coating of ice. This coating gives them great protection,
providing 6 value armor on all locations of their body.
Every attack that does damage through the armor degrades it,
reducing the armor value by one. Fire attacks protect for a single hit, but
then the coating melts away, leaving the ice spider without armor.
Entomb: Once per combat, the ice spider can spew a
mass of freezing liquid onto an opponent. The victim must save (AGI, STR 15) or
be trapped in a prison of ice. A trapped character can save again in 6 rounds
(STR 15) to free himself, or he can be freed by allies if they do 50 points to
the prison.
Freezing Aura: Ice spiders exude a bone-chilling cold
that extends into all adjacent hexes. Anyone in an affected hex must save (TOU
13) every round, or take 1d4 points of penetrating cold damage.
Many Legs: Leg wounds do not affect this creature
until 2 or more separate legs are affected.
Spider Walk: Spiders can walk on walls and ceilings.
Weak to Fire: Ice spiders have a -1 to save against
fire effects and take +1 effect/die.
Whiteout: Ice spiders have a stealth skill of 18 in
snowy regions.
Description
Ice spiders roam the frozen lands north of Bostonia as well
as the mountain peaks that ring the human lands. They are dangerous predators,
using their coloring to hide in the snow and wait for prey to stumble close.
When it does, the will charge out and freeze their victim before dragging it
back to its lair.
These creatures tend to hunt alone, or in small packs (2-4).
Packs of these creatures are extremely dangerous due to their ability to
quickly incapacitate large numbers of hapless adventurers before a single blow
has been struck.
