Pond Kelpie

Adversaries Designed by Dandelev • Art by Dandelev

Adversary overview

A small, chubby kelpie that lives in ponds, streams, and shallow bodies of water. Although carnivorous, they are not usually aggressive to humanoids and tend to be rather shy.

These shy little water horses are cousins to the much more ferocious kelpies of large lakes and the sea. They graze on a variety of field grasses, algae, and small insects. Their favorite food is dragonflies.
