 SPECIAL ABILITIES

Surprise: Korleth gain a +10 hide bonus when hiding in icy terrain. Korleth are considered scentless, so creatures cannot track them using their scent.

Rend: If a Korleth hits on both attacks on the same target, they inflict an additional 2d8 damage.

Fearsome icy predator. Nine foot tall, four feet wide humanoid turtle shape, short fat legs, with a incredibly tough white chitinous shell. They have huge sharp claws which they use to rip apart other creatures in combat. Have a five foot or longer tail.

They will usually wait just below the surface of the snow, then reach out to grab victims and pummel them, or will jump out to overwhelm their foes with their brute strength.

When they are well fed, they can be docile and playful. Liking to lie on their backs watch the moons and sing long melodious, sweetly voices songs. Due to their hunger, few creatures ever get a chance to see this side of the Korleth.

Combat: Korleth attack creatures weaker themselves whenever they outnumber their opponents or see weakness in other creatures. Their primary attack is using surprise tactics, often bull rushing opponents into icy waters.
