Features

  • Minion (7)

    The Minion is defeated when they take any damage. For every 7 damage a PC deals to the Minion, defeat an additional Minion within range the attack would succeed against.

Actions

  • Group Attack
    fear 1

    Spend a Fear to choose a target and spotlight all adversaries with the same name within Close range of them. Those Minions move into Melee range of the target and make one shared attack roll. On a success, they deal 8 physical damage each. Combine this damage.

Reactions

  • Feast and Grow!

    Whenever a player within melee range of the brood larva is reduced to 0HP, spawn another Brood Larva in melee range and gain a fear. No matter how many adversaries are in range of the target, trigger this feature only once (Ex. three larva around 1 PC reduced to 0HP only triggers this once).
