Alligator

Adversaries Designed by Dodders

Adversary overview

A large swamp predator. Silent, patient and brutally territorial.

The Alligator is a one trick reptile; bite, grab, death roll, repeat. A simple tactic but an effective one. In most cases, an Alligator might lie in wait for its prey to pass and will likely back away if it seems like it is being overwhelmed… probably while dragging whatever is trapped within its toothy maw with it.

    When the Alligator makes a successful attack, all PCs within Far range lose a Hope and you gain a Fear.
