Forested Plains
Forested Plains
The forests in the southern regions of the country line the mountain range. Entry is restricted to those with travel visas due to the danger the Lunar Cry has brought to the area - though the plains themselves are home to monsters an average warrior could easily tame.. mostly. Few environmental
challenges and a reasonably high rate of return make this a great area for novice hunters.

Re: Forested Plains
Name:
Forest Spider
Flee: Athletics DC 45
Intention(1d100)
3-100:While a spiders intention is to kill, it's capacity to do so is limited. The odds of a human being trapped long enough to die before being found are remote at best, and you are discovered
1-2:You are unfortunately not so lucky
Reward (1d100:
86-100 - Spider Venom (1d2):A sickly brown tar that, in quantities of five, will apply a 10% chance of mild poison on the target
1-85 - Spider Silk (1d4):Thin yet durable twine like material spiders use in their webs. 10 will give a weapon a 10% chance of causing mild slow
Description:While ordinarily the rule is smaller spiders tend to be the more dangerous, you may not want to say that around these forest predators. A forest spider is a furry brown arachnid of comparable size to an average human with sharp fangs and deadly venom. They are often found in impressively designed webs that can span between several trees, orbs of captured creatures hanging from their webs.
A spider engaged in combat will attempt to first ensnare its victim before moving in for the kill. These creatures are not to be taken lightly.

Attack Behavior: 1d4
1, 2, 3:Web Shot - 1d140+65 (No Damage): A spiders first priority is to ensnare it's victims. If the target is hit, they are inflicted with "Stop". Any target already ensared will instead be subject to a venom bite.
4:Venom Bite - 1d130+60 (2500 damage): The spiders venom carries a lethal potency, though it's efficiency on humans is lacking. This inflicts mild poison on a target.

Re: Forested Plains
Name:
Wild Wolves
Flee: Athletics DC 80
Intention(1d100)
4-100:You are lucky. The wolves engaged you out of territorial reasons and have opted to leave you beaten. You are found and returned to camp.
0-3:These wolves desired dinner, you will do nicely.
Reward (1d100:
76-100: Wolf Pelt (1):Sells for 70 gil per pelt. 3 can be used to reduce the DC to make the Climate Control armor mod by 5% (the DC can never drop below 15%), as well as the price by 8750 gil (never below 35000 gil)
1-75: Wolf Fang (1d10):Sells for 35 gil per fang
Description:Natural predators in the forest environment, these brown furred wolves are natural pack hunters, intelligent and fiercely territorial. What they in technological advancement they make up for in fierce instinct, swarming prey for quick finishing blows. Their fur is prized as insulation and even their fangs fetch a fair price for those brave enough to attempt to extract them.
Although ordinarily not particularly threatening to humans, the recent events in the Galeron region have rendered these wolves desperate, making them dangerous opponents.
Weapon of Choice:
Fangs - 1d150+70 (1d3 x 2500)
Claws - 1d140+65 (1d2 x 3000)
HP: 16000
MP:0
Dodge:1d130+60
Physical Soak:1500
Magical Soak:1000
Element:None
Attack Behavior: 1d3
**SPECIAL**
One wolf in each battle acts as an alpha, possessing 20,000 hp and +5 to it's rolls. Should it fall, all wolves suffer a -5 to their attack and dodge for loss of morale.
1,2:Fangs - 1d150+70 (1d3 x 2500): A wolves fangs are razor sharp, capable of ignoring light armor. Should all 3 bites land, the victim will be placed in mild shock for 1d5 rounds.
3:Claws - 1d140+65 (1d2 x 3000): Wolves are capable of using their powerful front claws as fierce weapons that ignore light armor. Should both paws hit, a wolf will tackle an opponent to the ground (knockdown), and will deal double damage against that target until they stand.

Re: Forested Plains
Name:
Poporing
Flee: Athletics DC 30
Intention(1d100)
10-100:The poporring steals 3 of your consumables at random (roll your item slots, reroll if the item is non consumable)
1-9:This poporing was particularly hungry.. or stupid. It has mistaken one of your non consumable items (materia, equipment, etc) as food and wandered off with it.
Reward (1d100)
97-100 - Garlet (1d3): An expensive stone which can be sold for 700 gil. 5 Garlets will add 10% magic soak to any armor they are crafted into.
1-96 - Sticky Mucus (1d4): A green, slimy mucus substance left over from the Poporing which can be sold for 7 gil per vial. 3 may be refined into a free high potion by a potions master.
Description:The grown up, evolved version of the poring, the poporing frequents marshy areas and heavily forested regions. As opposed to it's relatively non threatening cousin, poporings can be rather vicious (though never lethal). They use a special non-lethal poison which can paralyze and knock a victim unconsious, during which time they pilfer edible items off of the body, injected from two visible fangs on either side of it's mouth.
When no one is paying attention, they can sometimes be heard singing...

Re: Forested Plains
Name:
Troll
Flee: Athletics DC 50
Intention(1d100)
50-100:The troll is distracted by a shiny object in the distance and forgets all about you
4-49:The troll is distracted by a shiny object on your person and takes a random consumable
2-3:The troll is distracted by a very shiny object on your person and takes the highest valued item on you at the time. You must encounter another troll in 1d3 days to retrieve this item.
1:You are taken back to the troll camp for dinner. Well, as the dinner anyway. Tough luck.
Reward (1d100)
20-100 - Troll Hair (1d5): Troll hair sells for 70 gil per 'chunk' on the market. Exactly why someone would want troll hair, you don't know. (You don't want to know).
Description:Trolls are among the most dimwitted and brutish of creatures. Relying on their potent strength, Trolls are capable of overpowering most of their prey - and often do - before they even know why they went through the effort. Trolls hunt for sport, for food, out of boredom, or just for the sake of clobbering something with their powerful clubs. Although the monsters are hellishly strong, they are generally not intelligent enough to beat a target to death (beyond knowing that it stopped moving), although they have excellent recipes for cooking all sorts of creatures.

Re: Forested Plains
Name:
River Cobra
Flee: Athletics DC 25
Intention(1d100)
8-100:The snake renders you unconscious but is chased away by another predator before it can enjoy its meal
0-7:The snake slowly devours you over a matter of an hour. Not a pleasant way to go.
Reward (1d100)
90-100 - Drop of Antivenom: Rarely, a snakes blood can be refined by a potionsmaster to produce a potent serum capable of curing all levels of poison, worth 1750 gil before refinement and 17500 afterwards. The refinement DC is 1000.
54-89 - Serpent Scale (1d3): A large scale plied from the River Cobra. Sells for 140 gil or 10 can be used to add 'Poison Ward' to an armor you are crafting
Description:Despite it's name, the River Cobra could be better described as a forest anaconda, dark navy blue and dark green scales give it a natural camoflauge in all but shallow streams, and it's twin fins on either side make for easy swimming through the water. River Cobra are generally only fought in small numbers and usually are not pack animals. They use their long white fangs to inject deadly venom deep into their victims. These are dangerous animals.

A river cobra, once it constricts a target, will only attack that target until it falls.
1, 2:Constrict - 1d160+75 (3000): A river cobra will attempt to coil around it's victim if given the opportunity, trying to both crush the life out of it and providing ample opportunity to inject it's venom. Crush inflicts mild shock and bleeds (damage continues) for 1d3 rounds. If an enemy is already constricted, this becomes a venom bite.
3:Venom Bite - 1d150+70 (4000): Venom Bite ignores light armor and punctures through to the skin, inflicting terminal poison (venom) until cured.

Re: Forested Plains
Name:
Dire Wolf
Flee: Athletics DC 120 + 10 per wolf beyond 3
Intention(1d100)
20-100:The dire wolf, having protected its territory, marks you as property and moves on to more worthy opponents
1-19:The hungry dire wolf decides not to wait, instead devouring its prey
Reward (1d100)
90-100 - Wolf Ribs (1d2): Juicy dire wolf ribs, which can be sold for 1500 gil or used in cooking the main course 'Hot Wolf Ribs' (1 for ration, 4 for banquet) to provide triple effect (Meat)
4-89 - Wolf Flank (1d3): A surprisingly tender flank of wolf, which can be sold for 1000 gil or used in cooking (1 for ration, 4 for banquet) to provide double effect (Meat)
Description:A much larger and more dangerous wolf, a typical dire wolf stands proud at four feet tall, nine feet long with a coat of grey and white fur. Feared predators, dire wolves are among the top of many food chains for good reason, armed with powerful claws and bone crushing jaws that can rend armor to shreds. While one dire wolf can be a challenge, they can sometimes attack in packs as large as eight, employing the tactics of their smaller cousins to great effect.
Animal or not, Dire Wolves are not to be treated lightly.

If there are any more than four in an encounter, one will be an alpha. The Alpha has an extra 10,000 hp and a +10 bonus to all rolls. Furthermore, it gives a +5 to all rolls the rest of the pack makes. Should it die, these bonuses disappear
1:Fearful Howl - 1d140+65 (Will) (Inflicts Moderate Stop (Fear)): The loud howl of a dire wolf has been known to trigger stampedes of animals and has been compared to the war cry of armies. Many simply run in terror from it
2:Dire Fangs - 1d180+85 (1d2 x 6000): The fangs of a dire wolf, powered by it's bone crushing jaws, are capable of rendering anything beneath heavy armor useless for the remainder of the battle. If both bites land, the target gains mild shock for 1d5 rounds.
3:Dire Claws - 1d160+75 (1d3 x 8000): As fearsome as it's jaws are, a dire wolf will often employ it's claws to great effect in a left-right-left combo that can knock its target to the ground should any more than one hit.
Dire Wolf
Flee: Athletics DC 120 + 10 per wolf beyond 3
Intention(1d100)
20-100:The dire wolf, having protected its territory, marks you as property and moves on to more worthy opponents
1-19:The hungry dire wolf decides not to wait, instead devouring its prey
Reward (1d100)
90-100 - Wolf Ribs (1d2): Juicy dire wolf ribs, which can be sold for 1500 gil or used in cooking the main course 'Hot Wolf Ribs' (1 for ration, 4 for banquet) to provide triple effect (Meat)

Description:A much larger and more dangerous wolf, a typical dire wolf stands proud at four feet tall, nine feet long with a coat of grey and white fur. Feared predators, dire wolves are among the top of many food chains for good reason, armed with powerful claws and bone crushing jaws that can rend armor to shreds. While one dire wolf can be a challenge, they can sometimes attack in packs as large as eight, employing the tactics of their smaller cousins to great effect.
Animal or not, Dire Wolves are not to be treated lightly.

Re: Forested Plains
Name:
Rock Lizard
Flee: Athletics DC 1
Intention(1d100)
0-100:If it didn't already turn you to stone, you are fine. It's not exactly hostile...
Reward (1d100)
90-100 - Pure Essence of Stone: A liquid which must be refined by a potionsmaster (DC 350) from the scales of the Rock Lizard. This essence can be used when refining armor to add Earth Barrier and Slow/Petrify Barrier
49-89 - Essence of Stone: A liquid which must be refined by a potionsmaster (DC 200) from the scales of the Rock Lizard. This essence can be used when refining armor to add Earth Ward and Slow/Petrify Ward
Description:Such a rare and dangerous lizard for such a small thing, the rock lizard is a fast and ordinarily docile monster that is sought after for the liquid that can be refined from it's scales. While it isn't physically threatening, the bite of the lizard when provoked is incredibly potent. The rock lizard is approximately the size of a human hand, and as such is easily killed.. if you can catch it.

Initiative: 300
HP: 1

Should the battle end with the party petrified (and with no way to cure it), they will remain there until someone else encounters the Rock Lizard (and the statue), or 1d5 days at which point a ranger finds them and returns them to camp.
1,2,3,4:Bite - 1d250+120 (1): The bite of the rock lizard immediately spreads its essence into the wound, infecting the target with slow petrify - in 1d5 rounds, the victim will be a stone statue
5: Flee - N/A (N/A): The lizard disappears into the brush.. whoops
